(c)                 The parties will follow the mediator’s recommendations on the extent of mediation required, and when to stop mediation if the issue cannot be resolved. 

(d)                 If mediation does not resolve the issue, the parties must: 

(i)                   if they haven’t already done so, engage independent legal representation at their own expense to understand the strength of their arguments; and

(ii)                  based on that advice, if settlement is not achieved, participate in arbitration (or other dispute resolution mechanism agreed in mediation) through the ADC at equal shared expense.

(e)                 The parties will follow the binding outcome of arbitration (or other agreed mechanism).

(f)                   Either party may at any time during this process make an offer for settlement.
