Hyatt shall provide written notice to Roomlinx of such costs incurred promptly after incurrence of such costs.

Each Party’s representative shall be a senior member of the Party’s management team with the necessary technical and business expertise necessary to make determinations presented to the Board.  The Board shall render its determinations within ten (10) days of any such meeting.  In the event that the Board is unable to reach a decision on any matter submitted to it for consideration, the Board members shall agree on a neutral third party, paid in equal shares by the Parties, to render the necessary decision and the decision of the neutral third party will be deemed to be the decision of the Board.
