The BAT Settlement Payment clause defines the obligation for one party to make a specific payment to another as part of settling a dispute or fulfilling a contractual adjustment. Typically, this clause outlines the amount, timing, and method of payment, and may specify the conditions under which the payment is triggered, such as the resolution of a claim or the achievement of a settlement agreement.
