26. Dispute Resolution26.1 Any dispute between the parties arising from the performance of the provisions of this Contract and any invoice for payment issued by Original Media to the Client must be attempted to be settled between the parties by an authorised representative with authority from each party meeting within fourteen (14) days of notification of a dispute in writing from one party to the other party. Such meeting is to take place within the state of South Australia at a place nominated by Original Media.26.2 If the meeting referred to in clause 26.1 does not result in the settlement of the dispute between Original Media and the Client, the dispute may then be referred to mediation, if agreed by both parties. The mediator is to be appointed by agreement between the parties and in the event that the parties agree to mediate but within seven (7) days of agreeing to such mediation cannot agree to the mediator to be appointed then the mediator is to be appointed by the then current President of the Law Society of South Australia. The costs of any mediation are to be borne equally between the parties.26.3 If the dispute cannot be settled through mediation, or the parties do not both consent to a mediation, then either party is at liberty to commence legal proceedings.26.4 During the period in which the dispute is being resolved, the parties must continue to perform all of the provisions of the Contract which are not under dispute.
