before any settlement is binding. The parties will jointly appoint an acceptable mediator and will share equally in the cost of such mediation.
The mediation, unless otherwise agreed, shall terminate in the event the entire dispute is not resolved within 30 calendar days of the date written
notice requesting mediation is delivered by one party to the other at the party’s last known address.
