The Company shall have the right to require the Employee to be examined by a physician duly licensed to practice medicine in the State in which the Employee has his primary residence to determine such physician's opinion as to the Employee's disability. If such physician's opinion differs from that of the physician treating the Employee, or a physician thereafter retained by the Employee, they shall forthwith select a third physician so licensed whose opinion, after examination and review of available information, shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto.
