Resolution of Claims The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful on the merits or otherwise for purposes of Section 8(a)(i) if it permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction, disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action, claim or proceeding with our without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise for purposes of Section 8(a)(i). The Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome this presumption.
Resolution of Conflicts (a) In case the Member Representative shall timely object in writing to any claim or claims by a Parent Indemnified Party made in any Indemnification Notice, as provided in Section 6(b), the Member Representative and the Parent Indemnified Party shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) calendar days following delivery of the Certificate of Objections to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Member Representative and the Indemnified Party should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and shall be furnished to the Depository Agent. The Depository Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and shall distribute amounts from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.
(b) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation, either the Parent Indemnified Party or the Member Representative may, by written notice to the other, demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the damage or loss is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be jointly selected by the Parent Indemnified Party and the Member Representative within fifteen (15) calendar days after such written notice is sent, or absent such agreement, such arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. The decision of the arbitrator as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Indemnification Notice shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and the Depository Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance therewith.
(c) Any such arbitration shall be held in Washington, D.C. under the Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. For purposes of this Section 7, in any arbitration hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in the Indemnification Notice is at issue, the Parent Indemnified Party shall be deemed to be the "Non-Prevailing Party" unless the arbitrator awards the Parent Indemnified Party more than one-half (1/2) of the amount in dispute; otherwise, the Member Representative (on behalf of the Holders) shall be deemed to be the Non-Prevailing Party. The Non-Prevailing Party to an arbitration shall pay its own expenses, the fees of the arbitrator, the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association, and the expenses, including without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs, reasonably incurred by the other party to the arbitration. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
Governing Law; Resolution of Disputes This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin. Any dispute arising out of this Agreement shall, at the Executive’s election, be determined by arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect (in which case both parties shall be bound by the arbitration award) or by litigation. Whether the dispute is to be settled by arbitration or litigation, the venue for the arbitration or litigation shall be Milwaukee, Wisconsin or, at the Executive’s election, if the Executive is not then residing or working in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin metropolitan area, in the judicial district encompassing the city in which the Executive resides; provided, that, if the Executive is not then residing in the United States, the election of the Executive with respect to such venue shall be either Milwaukee, Wisconsin or in the judicial district encompassing that city in the United States among the thirty cities having the largest population (as determined by the most recent United States Census data available at the Termination Date) which is closest to the Executive’s residence.

The parties agree to communicate areas of concern as they arise and to address those concerns in a professional manner. Any disputes between the Commission and the School which arise under, or are by virtue of, this Contract and which are not resolved by mutual agreement, shall be decided by the full Commission in writing, within 90 calendar days after a written request by the School for a final decision concerning the dispute; provided that where a disputes resolution process is defined for a particular program area (e.g., IDEA, Section 504, etc.), the Parties shall comply with the process for that particular program area; and further provided that the parties may mutually agree to utilize the services of a third-party facilitator to reach a mutual agreement prior to decision by the full Commission. Subject to the availability of an appeal under Ch. 302D, HRS, or BOE administrative rules or procedures, any such decision by the full Commission shall be final and conclusive.
Amicable Resolution (a) Save where expressly stated to the contrary in this Agreement, any dispute, difference or controversy of whatever nature between the Parties, howsoever arising under, out of or in relation to this Agreement (the "Dispute") shall in the first instance be attempted to be resolved amicably in accordance with the procedure set forth in Clause 12.1 (b).
(b) Either Party may require such Dispute to be referred to the Authority, and the Chief Executive Officer/Director/Partner of the Developer for the time being, for amicable settlement. Upon such reference, the two shall meet at the earliest mutual convenience and in any event within 15 days of such reference to discuss and attempt to amicably resolve the Dispute.

Dispute Resolution & Venue 19.1 In the event of any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Parties agree to exercise good faith to resolve the dispute amicably and as soon as possible. In the event that the Parties fail to settle the dispute amicably within thirty (30) days, they shall submit the dispute to informal mediation, as further described below in this paragraph. The Parties shall continue to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement unless such performance would be objectively hindered due to the existing dispute. The Party invoking mediation shall inform the other Party with a written notice of its decision to seek informal mediation, and the notice must include a description of the subject to the dispute and a proposed resolution thereof. Designated representatives of both Parties shall attempt to resolve the dispute within five (5) working days starting from the day after the delivery of such notice to the other Party. If the designated representatives cannot resolve the dispute, the Parties shall meet at a mutually agreed location and discuss the dispute and their respective proposals for resolution while being represented by their responsible executives, who shall act in good faith to resolve the dispute.
19.2 If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days of the meeting among the Parties’ executives, either Party may pursue legal action in court. The exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any and all actions arising out of or brought under this Agreement is in a state court of competent jurisdiction, situated in Prague, Czech Republic. During such court action, the Parties shall continue to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement unless such performance would be objectively hindered due to the existing dispute.
Governing Law; Disputes 15.1 The laws of the State of New York, U.S.A. govern this Agreement, and the relationships created by it, except for its laws regarding conflicts of law and arbitrability; the Federal Arbitration Act governs all issues of arbitrability. Neither party may bring a claim more than two years after the underlying cause of action first accrues.
15.2 Each party agrees to give the other prompt written notice of any claim, controversy, or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement, and both parties agree to engage in good faith discussions to resolve the matter. If that fails to resolve the matter promptly, upon the election of either party, the parties will participate in a non-binding mediation before a mutually agreed mediator. Any controversy, claim or dispute which is not resolved through the procedures set forth above within 60 days following the initial notice (or such longer period as the parties may agree) will be resolved by arbitration before a sole arbitrator who is an attorney, under the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The duty and right to arbitrate will extend to any employee, officer, director, shareholder, agent, or affiliate, of a party to the extent that right or duty arises through a party or is related to this Agreement. The decision and award of the arbitrator will be final and binding, and the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator is directed to hear and decide potentially dispositive motions in advance of a hearing on the merits by applying the applicable law to undisputed facts and documents. The arbitration will be held in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A. This Section 15.2, and the obligation to mediate and arbitrate, will not apply to claims for infringement, misappropriation or misuse of a party’s intellectual property or Confidential Information, or collection of sums owed to NCR Voyix under this Agreement. A party may at any time seek from a court of competent jurisdiction an injunction or other equitable relief in aid of arbitration. The arbitrator will not have authority to award punitive damages, non- compensatory damages, or any damages other than direct damages, nor have authority to award direct damages inconsistent with the limitations and exclusions set forth in this Agreement. The United Nations Convention for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement.
