Controversies. In the event of a controversy arising from the Agreement or Purchase Order, the Licensor, within six (6) months after the claim accrues, must file a written claim with the contracting officer for a determination. The claim shall state all grounds upon which the Licensor asserts a controversy exists. If the Licensor fails to file a claim or files an untimely claim, the Licensor is deemed to have waived its right to assert a claim in any forum.

The contracting officer's determination shall be the final order of the purchasing agency. Within 15 days of the mailing date of the determination denying a claim or within 135 days of filing a claim if, no extension is agreed to by the parties, whichever occurs first, the Licensor may file a statement of claim with the Commonwealth Board of Claims.
