Disputed Amounts 28.1.1 If any portion of an amount due to a Party (the “Billing Party”) under this Agreement is subject to a bona fide dispute between the Parties, the Party billed (the “Non-Paying Party”) shall, prior to the Xxxx Due Date, give written notice to the Billing Party of the amounts it disputes (“Disputed Amounts”) and include in such written notice the specific details and reasons for disputing each item; provided, however, a failure to provide such notice by that date shall not preclude a Party from subsequently challenging billed charges provided that such charges were paid. The Non-Paying Party shall pay when due all undisputed amounts to the Billing Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Section 28.2, a Party shall be entitled to dispute only those charges for which the Date was within the immediately preceding eighteen (18) months of the date on which the other Party received notice of such Disputed Amounts.

In case no settlement can be reached through consultation, each party shall have the right to submit such disputes to China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission in Beijing. The Place of arbitration is Beijing. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on both parties.
Dispute Settlement 1. A Party may not initiate proceedings under the general dispute settlement provisions of this Agreement regarding a refusal to grant temporary entry under this Chapter unless: (a) the matter involves a pattern of practice; and (b) the business person has exhausted the available administrative remedies regarding the particular matter. 2. The remedies referred to in subparagraph 1(b) shall be deemed to be exhausted if a final determination in the matter has not been issued by the competent authority within one year of the institution of an administrative proceeding, and the failure to issue a determination is not attributable to delay caused by the business person.
