Agreement so as to maintain the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement within sixty (60) days after the issue is first raised by either Party, then the affected Party (or either Party, if both Parties are affected) may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party.

9.17 Dispute Resolution. If a dispute should arise between the Parties with respect to their obligations hereunder or the interpretation of this Agreement, the Parties shall, prior to the commencement of any legal action, agree to meet and confer in good faith on all matters of common interest on all controversies, claims, or disputes (“Dispute”) which materially affect the performance of either Party under this Agreement. As soon as a Dispute is recognized by either Party, such Party shall communicate the substance of the Dispute to each Party’s primary contact. Once a Dispute has been raised, the primary contacts shall make all reasonable efforts to reach a resolution within two (2) weeks after the Dispute has been identified. If the Dispute cannot be resolved between the Parties’ respective primary contacts, then the Parties shall submit such matters to their respective executive management, who shall make all reasonable efforts to reach a resolution within thirty (30) days after the Dispute has been referred to them. The foregoing, however, shall not prevent or limit either Party’s right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction, or other similar equitable relief.
