Mandatory Claims Procedures. If you or any person acting on your behalf (the “Claimant”) has any claim or dispute related in any way to the Grant or to the Plan, the Claimant must follow these claims procedures. All claims must be brought no later than one year following the date on which the claim first arose and any claim not submitted within such time limit will be waived.

Mandatory Procedures. If after negotiations in person between their respective senior management the Parties are unable to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, then the dispute shall be resolved solely by means of the procedures set forth in this Article 13, and that such procedures constitute legally binding obligations that are an essential provision of this Agreement. If either Party fails to observe the procedures of this Article 13, as may be modified by their written agreement, the other Party may bring an action for specific performance of these procedures in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Claims Procedures. As required under [Section 2560.503-1(b)(2)])] of the Department of Labor Regulations, the claims procedures are set forth in the Plan’s Summary Plan Description, which claims procedures are incorporated by reference into the Plan. A Participant or a beneficiary, or the authorized representative of either (the “claimant”), may not bring an action under ERISA [Section 502(a)] or otherwise with respect to his or her claim until he or she has exhausted the claims procedures. Any such action must be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction within 12 months after the date on which the claimant receives the Committee’s written denial of the claimant’s claim on appeal or, if earlier, 12 months after the date of the alleged facts or conduct giving rise to the claim (including, without limitation, the date the claimant alleges he or she became entitled to Plan benefits requested in the suit or legal action), or it shall be forever barred. Any further review, judicial or otherwise, of the Committee’s decision on the claimant’s claim shall be limited to whether, in the particular instance, the Committee abused its discretion. In no event shall such further review, judicial or otherwise, be on a de novo basis, as the Committee has discretionary authority to determine eligibility and benefits and to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan.

A Participant or his or her beneficiary (if applicable) may file a written claim with the Committee with respect to his or her rights to receive a benefit from the Plan. ​ will be informed of the decision of the Committee with respect to the claim within 90 days after it is filed. Under special circumstances, the Committee may require an additional period of not more than 90 days to review a claim. If this occurs, ​ will be notified in writing as to the length of the extension, the reason for the extension, and any other information needed in order to process the claim. If a Participant is not notified within the 90-day (or 180-day, if so extended) period, he or she may consider the claim to be denied.

Claims Procedures. The applicable employees of the Parties shall escalate any Dispute to the executives of the Parties for resolution. Upon receipt of any such escalated matter, the executives of the Parties shall discuss and attempt to resolve the matter within 15 business days immediately following the escalation. If by the end of the fifteenth business day, the matter has not been resolved to the satisfaction of both Parties, then the party that initiated the claim shall provide written notification to the other party in accordance with Section 8(c) of this Agreement, in the form of a claim identifying the issue or amount disputed and including a detailed reason for the claim. The party against whom the claim is made shall respond in writing to the claim within 15 business days from the date of receipt of the claim document. The party filing the claim shall have an additional 15 business days after the receipt of the response to either accept any resolution offered by the other party or request implementation of the procedures set forth in Section 8(c) (the “Escalation Procedures”). Following a Party’s waiver of, or failure to respond within, the time periods set forth in this Section 8(b), the other Party, may submit such Dispute to arbitration in the manner described in this Section 8.
