Testing and Correction. The accuracy of Buyer's meter(s) shall be tested and verified by Buyer annually. Buyer shall have the right, at its own expense, to test and verify the Seller's meter(s) upon reasonable notice, provided such testing shall not exceed one test during a Calendar Year, or more frequently if there is just cause. If Seller has installed check meters in accordance with Section 8.1 hereof, Seller shall test and verify such meters annually. Each Party shall bear the cost of the annual testing of its own meters. (a) If either Party disputes a meter's accuracy or condition, it shall so advise the meter's owner in writing. The meter's owner shall, within fifteen (15) days after receiving such notice, advise the other Party in writing as to its position concerning the meter's accuracy and reasons for taking such position. If the Parties are unable to resolve their disagreement through reasonable negotiations, either Party may submit such dispute to an unaffiliated third-party engineering company mutually acceptable to the Parties to test the meter. (b) Should the meter be found to be registering within a one-percent variance, the Party contesting the meter's accuracy shall bear the cost of inspection; otherwise, the cost shall be borne by the meter's owner. Any repair or replacement of such a meter found to be operating beyond permitted one-percent variance shall be made at the expense of the owner of that meter as soon as practicable, based on the third-party engineer's report. If, upon testing, any meter is found to be in error by an amount greater than a one-percent variance, such meter shall be replaced promptly, any previous recordings by such meter shall be adjusted in accordance with Section 8.2, any prior payments made for Net Energy and/or invoices for payments not yet made shall be adjusted to reflect the corrected measurements determined pursuant to Section 8.2. If the difference of the payments actually made by Buyer minus the payment based upon the corrected measurements is a positive number, Seller shall pay the difference to Buyer; if the difference is a negative number, Buyer shall pay the difference to Seller. In either case, the Party paying such difference shall also pay interest as described in Section 9.1(d) for late payments and such payment (including such interest) shall be made within ten (10) days of receipt of a corrected billing statement.
