9. RIGHT TO AUDIT AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
9.1 Right to Audit. Both Parties have the right to conduct a reasonable audit or review the other’s records to establish or confirm compliance with this Services Agreement’s terms, including as to reported payment information, upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times.

a. In the event of a material dispute between the Parties arising from or relating to this Services Agreement or its subject matter, the aggrieved Party shall send a written request asking the other Party to meet and confer in an effort to settle the dispute.
