Conflict Resolution The Parties agree to resolve issues that may arise in the course of this partnership and shall act reasonably and in good faith in the event a conflict or disagreement should arise in the interpretation or implementation of the obligation, terms, and/or responsibilities of the Parties to this Agreement. Throughout the conflict resolution process it is important to balance the need to be responsive to the District’s instructional needs as well as the College’s responsibility to provide a quality dual credit program while also maintaining accreditation. Conflicts should be resolved at the lowest level possible with an understanding that, if no agreement is reached, there is a procedure for advancing the conflict through each Party’s organization. The key approach will be to maintain communications with early discussion sought on issues/conflicts and solutions summarized in writing after each discussion. In order to be collaborative, the College must be able to communicate with the administrators on campus in which the dual credit students/programs are present. Each Party shall designate an administrative liaison for the purpose of resolving concerns at both the campus (liaison must be Principal or other designated campus administrator) and College level (Director, Dual Credit Programs). If a resolution is not found at that initial level, the conflict resolution process shall move to a designated District level administrator (such as a District Director or Assistant Superintendent of Instruction) and a designated College level administrator (Director, Prospective Student Relations and Enrollment Management). If the conflict continues then the process shall proceed to the District Superintendent and the Vice Chancellor, Student Affairs of the College. If a resolution is not found through those initial levels, a request may be made that the matter be handled through the Parties’ respective legal counsel.
Governing Law; Resolution of Disputes This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin. Any dispute arising out of this Agreement shall, at the Executive’s election, be determined by arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect (in which case both parties shall be bound by the arbitration award) or by litigation. Whether the dispute is to be settled by arbitration or litigation, the venue for the arbitration or litigation shall be Milwaukee, Wisconsin or, at the Executive’s election, if the Executive is not then residing or working in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin metropolitan area, in the judicial district encompassing the city in which the Executive resides; provided, that, if the Executive is not then residing in the United States, the election of the Executive with respect to such venue shall be either Milwaukee, Wisconsin or in the judicial district encompassing that city in the United States among the thirty cities having the largest population (as determined by the most recent United States Census data available at the Termination Date) which is closest to the Executive’s residence. The parties consent to personal jurisdiction in each trial court in the selected venue having subject matter jurisdiction notwithstanding their residence or situs, and each party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided hereunder for the giving of notices.

Resolution of Conflicts (a) In case the Stockholders' Agents shall so object in writing to any claim or claims by Acquiror made in any Officer's Certificate, Acquiror shall have thirty (30) days to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Stockholders' Agents. If after such thirty (30) day period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Stockholders' Agents and Acquiror shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the Stockholders' Agents and Acquiror should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and shall distribute the Escrow Shares from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of the memorandum. (b) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation, either Acquiror or the Stockholders' Agents may, by written notice to the other, demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the damage or loss is at issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by three arbitrators. Within fifteen (15) days after such written notice is sent, Acquiror (on the one hand) and the Stockholders' Agents (on the other hand) shall each select one arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrators as to the validity and amount of any claim in such Officer's Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Section 10.4, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow Fund in accordance with such decision. (c) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be held in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ or San Mateo County, California under the commercial rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. The non-prevailing party to an arbitration shall pay its own expenses, the fees of each arbitrator, the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association, and the expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, incurred by the prevailing party to the arbitration.
