Agrilink will coordinate with Pro-Fac to arrange for the amounts determined by Agrilink to be paid to Pro-Fac members from bank accounts maintained by Pro-Fac. Within ten (10) business days following any payment of an installment of Estimated CMV or Commercial Market Value to Pro-Fac's members (or, during the harvest advance period, within ten (10) business days following the last payment made for any weekly period), Agrilink will provide to Pro-Fac a schedule setting forth the aggregate amount of such payment and the breakdown of the amounts paid to each Pro-Fac member, taking into account Agrilink's calculation of the Agrilink Reimbursable Expenses applicable to each such member payment. If Pro-Fac disagrees with the amount of any such payment, Pro-Fac will notify Agrilink of its disagreement in writing within ten (10) business days following delivery of such schedule to Pro-Fac and provide in reasonable detail the basis of such disagreement, including Pro-Fac's proposed adjustment to any payment. If Pro-Fac has not notified Agrilink of any disagreement within the time period contemplated above, Pro-Fac shall be deemed to have agreed to the payments reflected in the applicable schedule. If Pro-Fac has notified Agrilink of its disagreement within the time period contemplated above and Agrilink fails to notify Pro-Fac of any objection to Pro-Fac's disagreement within ten (10) business days following Agrilink's receipt of Pro-Fac's disagreement, then Agrilink shall be deemed to have agreed to Pro-Fac's proposed adjustments to such payments.
