Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration (i) In case the Shareholder Representative shall object in writing to any claim or claims made in any Officer's Certificate within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Officer's Certificate, the Shareholder Representative and Parent shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Shareholder Representative and Parent should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties. If any claim against the Escrow Fund was sought, such memorandum shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and make payment out of the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.
(ii) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation (or in any event after 60 days from the date of the Officer's Certificate), either Parent or the Shareholder Representative may 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 three arbitrators.
