EXHIBIT 7.1

Alternative Dispute Resolution Procedures

A. METHOD OF INVOKING ADR PROCEDURES

1. These procedures may be invoked by any Party by giving written notice to the other of the dispute and designating one or more persons (collectively, the “DESIGNEE”) to act on behalf of the disputing Party regarding the dispute. The other Party shall be required to respond to the disputing Party’s notice within ten (10) business days by designating in writing its own Designee. A Party may choose to represent itself, or if it appoints a Designee, its officers may nonetheless attend such meetings.

2. The Parties, each acting through its Designee, shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place within ten (10) business days after the non-disputing Party designates its Designee to the others. At that meeting, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the dispute, or failing that, to agree on a method for resolving the claim or dispute.

3. If, within ten (10) business days after the first meeting or within such longer period of time as the Parties may mutually agree, the Parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the claim or dispute or agreeing on a dispute resolution mechanism, they shall submit the dispute to mediation in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

4. The Parties will jointly appoint a mutually acceptable mediator to mediate the dispute. If the Parties are unable to agree on a mutually acceptable mediator within five (5) business days after the conclusion of the negotiations described in Paragraph 3 above, then the Parties shall select a neutral Person from American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in New York, New York, with the assistance of AAA, unless the Parties agree otherwise in finding a mutually acceptable mediator.

5. The non-prevailing Party in the dispute shall be responsible for the payment of the fees and costs of the mediator, and any fees and costs of AAA.

6. The Parties agree to participate in good faith in the mediation and negotiations related thereto for a period of thirty (30) days from appointment of a mediator by any of the Parties or the AAA.

7. The Parties agree that the mediation period may be extended for an additional thirty (30) days beyond the initial thirty (30) day period upon agreement of the Parties. Either Party may terminate the mediation at any time after the initial thirty (30) days or when any agreed upon extension has expired.

20

B. MEDIATION PROCEDURES

1. The mediator shall be neutral and impartial.

2. The mediator shall control the procedural aspects of the mediation. The Parties will cooperate fully with the mediator.

a. The mediator is free to meet and communicate separately with each Party.

b. The mediator will decide when to hold joint meetings with the Parties and when to hold separate meetings. There shall be no stenographic record of any meeting. Formal rules of evidence will not apply.

3. Each Party may be represented by more than one person, including an attorney.

4. The process will be conducted expeditiously.

5. The mediator will not transmit information received from any Party to another Party or any third person unless authorized to do so by the Party transmitting the information.

6. The entire process is confidential. The Parties and the mediator will not disclose information regarding the process, including settlement terms, to third persons, unless the Parties otherwise agree. The process shall be treated as a compromise negotiation for purposes of the applicable rules of evidence. Further, the Parties will not disclose the existence of a dispute or information regarding the mediation to third persons including, without limitation, the media.

7. The Parties will refrain from pursuing administrative and/or judicial remedies during the mediation process, except as otherwise expressly provided in the agreement which incorporates these procedures. The Parties agree that any and all statutes of limitation or periods of time for taking action shall be tolled during the time period that the Parties are engaged in mediation.

8. Unless all Parties and the mediator otherwise agree in writing:

a. The mediator will be disqualified as a witness, consultant or expert in any pending or future investigation, action or proceeding relating to the subject matter of the mediation (including any investigation, action or proceeding which involves persons not Parties to this mediation);

b. The mediator, at the conclusion of the mediation, will immediately either destroy and certify destruction of, or return to the providing Party, any and all documents and information in the mediator’s possession, whether or not the mediation was successful; and

c. The mediator will not be subpoenaed in any such investigation, action or preceding and all Parties will oppose any effort to have the mediator subpoenaed.

9. The mediator, if a lawyer, may freely express views to the Parties on the legal issues of the dispute.

21

10. The mediator shall not be liable for any act or omission in connection with the mediation.

11. The mediator may withdraw at any time by written notice to the Parties (i) for overriding personal reasons, (ii) if the mediator believes that a Party is not acting in good faith, or (iii) if the mediator concludes that further mediation efforts would not be useful.
