---

 

such notification, will notify the Purchaser in writing whether it agrees for the amicable resolution of the matter upon the proposed terms and conditions.

---

 

conclusion that the Purchaser has complied with the procedure set out in Article 6.6.2 – 6.6.6 above in compliance with Article 6.6.1.
