If any dispute arises between the Parties in respect of the validity, interpretation, implementation or alleged breach of any provision of this Agreement or regarding a question, including the questions as to whether the termination of this Agreement by one party hereto has been legitimate (a “Dispute”), the disputing parties shall attempt to first resolve such dispute or claim through discussions between senior executives of the Purchaser and the Promoter.

If any dispute raises issues which are substantially the same as or connected with issues raised in a dispute which has already been referred to arbitration under this Agreement or the Existing Agreements or the Amendment Agreement (an “Existing Dispute”), or arises out of substantially the same facts as are the subject of an Existing Dispute (in either case, a “Related Dispute”), the arbitral tribunal appointed or to be appointed in respect of any such Existing Dispute shall also be appointed as the arbitral tribunal in respect of any Related Dispute. Any dispute as to whether or not a dispute is a Related Dispute shall be referred to, and finally resolved by, the arbitral tribunal appointed or to be appointed in respect of an Existing Dispute.

 

The arbitral tribunal, upon the request of one of the parties to a dispute or a party to this Agreement which itself wishes to be joined in any reference to arbitration proceedings in relation to a dispute, may join any party to this Agreement to any reference to arbitration proceedings in relation to that dispute and may make a single, final award determining all disputes between them. Each of the Parties hereby consents to be joined to any reference to arbitration proceedings in relation to any dispute at the request of a party to that dispute.

 

Where, pursuant to the above provisions, the same arbitral tribunal has been appointed in relation to two or more disputes, the arbitral tribunal may, with the agreement of all the parties concerned or upon the application of one of the parties, being a party to each of the disputes, order that the whole or part of the matters at issue shall be consolidated and/or heard together upon such terms or conditions as the arbitral tribunal thinks fit.
