[*****] days prior to the [*****] Payment Date, and GM will remit payment of that installment to Telenav in accordance with GM’s standard payment terms. For avoidance of doubt, the [*****] installment may be invoiced [*****].
(b)Within [*****] days of each software delivery for each “Performance Milestone” as set forth on attached Exhibit A-2, GM will inform Telenav, in writing, as to whether Telenav has or has not fully and timely satisfied the applicable Performance Milestone based on the Milestone Delivery Acceptance Criteria set forth in Exhibit A-2 (each a “Milestone Notice”), with such determination to be made in good faith and in GM’s reasonable discretion.
(i) | If GM does not agree that Telenav has fully and timely satisfied a Performance Milestone, the Milestone Notice applicable to such Performance Milestone will provide reasonable information regarding the nature and extent of such failure.

(ii) | For the avoidance of doubt, (A) Telenav will not be entitled to payment of a [*****] installment if the applicable Performance Milestone is not fully and timely satisfied by the end of the Cure Period related thereto; however, (B) Telenav’s failure to satisfy one or more Performance Milestones will not affect its right to payment of the remaining installments of the [*****], subject to Telenav’s timely satisfaction of the remaining Performance Milestones, respectively, in accordance with this Agreement. |
(iii) | Any dispute between GM and Telenav regarding whether Telenav has fully and timely satisfied any Performance Milestone will be promptly resolved by the GM Engineering and Telenav management level representatives assigned to this program. If not resolved within [*****] business days, the Parties shall notify their respective executive leadership of the dispute and they will meet to resolve it. |
(c)Payments under this Agreement are not subject to offset or credit rights GM may otherwise have under applicable law or other agreements with Telenav.
