The Parties shall endeavor in good faith to resolve informally any differences regarding interpretation of or compliance with this Agreement prior to initiating court action.

The Party so notified shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of the written notification to either perform the requested action or to contact the Party that issued the notice to discuss and resolve any questions or issues raised in the written notice. 13.
