Tax Disputes The parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute arising in connection with this Agreement within 30 days of the date on which any such dispute arises. Upon written notice by a party after such 30-day period, the matter will be referred to a U.S. tax counsel or other tax advisor of recognized national standing (the “Tax Advisor”). Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall negotiate in good faith to jointly select a Tax Advisor within five days of such written notice. If Weyerhaeuser and Parent do not agree on the selection of the Tax Advisor within such five-day period, the Tax Advisor shall be selected by Weyerhaeuser’s and Parent’s respective U.S. tax counsel or other advisors of recognized national standing within the following 10-day period. The Tax Advisor may, in its discretion, obtain the services of any third party necessary to assist it in resolving the dispute. The Tax Advisor shall furnish written notice to the parties of its resolution of the dispute as soon as practicable, but in any event no later than 90 days after acceptance of the matter for resolution. Any such resolution by the Tax Advisor shall be binding on the parties, and the parties shall take, or cause to be taken, any action necessary to implement such resolution. All fees and expenses of the Tax Advisor shall be shared equally by Weyerhaeuser and Parent. If any dispute regarding the preparation of a Tax Return is not resolved before the due date for filing such return, the return shall be filed in the manner deemed correct by the party responsible for filing the return without prejudice to the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, provided that the preparing party shall file an amended Tax Return, within 10 days after the completion of the process set forth in this Section 6.01, reflecting any changes made in connection with such process.
