Appraisers If it becomes necessary to determine the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental of the Leased Property for any purpose of this Lease, the party required or permitted to give Notice of such required determination shall include in the Notice the name of a Person selected to act as appraiser on its behalf. Within ten (10) days after Notice, Lessor (or Lessee, as the case may be) shall by Notice to Lessee (or Lessor, as the case may be) appoint a second Person as appraiser on its behalf. The appraisers thus appointed, each of whom must be a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or any successor organization thereto) with at least five (5) years’ experience in the State appraising property similar to the Leased Property, shall, within forty-five (45) days after the date of the Notice appointing the first appraiser, proceed to appraise the Leased Property to determine the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental thereof as of the relevant date (giving effect to the impact, if any, of inflation from the date of their decision to the relevant date); provided, however, that if only one appraiser shall have been so appointed, then the determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon the parties. To the extent consistent with sound appraisal practice as then existing at the time of any such appraisal, such appraisal shall be made on a basis consistent with the basis on which the Leased Property was appraised for purposes of determining its Fair Market Value at the time the Leased Property was acquired by Lessor. If two (2) appraisers are appointed and if the difference between the amounts so determined does not exceed five percent (5%) of the lesser of such amounts, then the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental shall be an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the sum of the amounts so determined. If the difference between the amounts so determined exceeds five percent (5%) of the lesser of such amounts, then such two appraisers shall have twenty (20) days to appoint a third appraiser. If no such appraiser shall have been appointed within such twenty (20) days or within ninety (90) days of the original request for a determination of Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental, whichever is earlier, either Lessor or Lessee may apply to any court having jurisdiction to have such appointment made by such court. Any appraiser appointed by the original appraisers or by such court shall be instructed to determine the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental within forty-five (45) days after appointment of such appraiser. The determination of the appraiser which differs most in the terms of dollar amount from the determinations of the other two appraisers shall be excluded, and fifty percent (50%) of the sum of the remaining two determinations shall be final and binding upon Lessor and Lessee as the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental of the Leased Property, as the case may be. This provision for determining by appraisal shall be specifically enforceable to the extent such remedy is available under applicable law, and any determination hereunder shall be final and binding upon the parties except as otherwise provided by applicable law. Lessor and Lessee shall each pay the fees and expenses of the appraiser appointed by it and each shall pay one-half of the fees and expenses of the third appraiser and one-half of all other costs and expenses incurred in connection with each appraisal.
Negotiation Teams Neither party in any negotiations shall have any control over the selection of the bargaining representatives of the other party. The parties mutually pledge that their representatives will be clothed with all necessary authority and power to make proposals, counterproposals and to reach tentative agreement on items being negotiated. The parties realize the Agreement shall only be effective subject to the ratification of the BTU-ESP and the School Board. The Negotiation/Labor Management team shall consist of no more than six

Working Groups From time to time, a Joint Committee may establish and delegate duties to sub-committees or directed teams (each, a “Working Group”) on an “as-needed” basis to oversee particular projects or activities (e.g., joint project team, joint finance group, or joint intellectual property group). Each such Working Group shall be constituted and shall operate as the Joint Committee determines; provided, that each Working Group shall have equal representation from each Party, unless otherwise mutually agreed. Working Groups may be established on an ad hoc basis for purposes of a specific project or on such other basis as the Joint Committee may determine. Each Working Group and its activities shall be subject to the oversight, review and approval of, and shall report to, the Joint Committee that formed said Working Group. In no event shall the authority of the Working Group exceed that specified for the Joint Committee that formed the Working Group. All decisions of a Working Group shall be by unanimous agreement. Any disagreement between the designees of AbbVie and Ablynx on a Working Group shall be referred to the Joint Committee that formed the Working Group for resolution.
