                    19.2 Notwithstanding Sub-clause 19.1 above, the parties may agree at any time to refer to mediation any difference and/or dispute arising out of or in connection
                      with this Agreement.

                  	 
	
                    i)In the case of a dispute in respect of which arbitration has been commenced under Sub-clause 19.1 above, the following shall apply:

                  	 
	
                    ii)Either party may at any time and from time to time elect to refer the dispute or part of the dispute to mediation by service on the other party of a written
                      notice (the "Mediation Notice") calling on the other party to agree to mediation.

                  	 
	
                    iii) The other party shall thereupon within 14 calendar days of receipt of the Mediation Notice confirm that they agree to mediation, in which case the parties
                      shall thereafter agree a mediator within a further 14 calendar days, failing which on the application of either party a mediator will be appointed promptly by the Arbitration Tribunal ("the Tribunal") or such person as the Tribunal
                      may designate for that purpose. The mediation shall be conducted in such place and in accordance with such procedure and on such terms as the parties may agree or, in the event of disagreement, as may be set by the mediator.

                  	 
	
                    iv) If the other party does not agree to mediate, that fact may be brought to the attention of the Tribunal and may be taken into account by the Tribunal when
                      allocating the costs of the arbitration as between the parties.

                  	 
	
                    (v) The mediation shall not affect the right of either party to seek such relief or take such steps as it considers necessary to protect its interest.

                  	 
	
                    (vi) Either party may advise the Tribunal that they have agreed to mediation. The arbitration procedure shall continue during the conduct of the mediation but the
                      Tribunal may take the mediation timetable into account when setting the timetable for steps in the arbitration.

                  	 
	
                    (vii) Unless otherwise agreed or specified in the mediation terms, each party shall bear its own costs incurred in the mediation and the parties shall share
                      equally the mediator's costs and expenses.

                  	 
	
                    (viii) The mediation process shall be without prejudice and confidential and no information or documents disclosed during it shall be revealed to the Tribunal
                      except to the extent that they are disclosable under the law and procedure governing the arbitration.
