However, in the event the Parties are not able to resolve a Dispute within sixty (60) days from Provider's receipt of a Dispute Notice, Provider shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (including all Services) or the right to discontinue the applicable Service immediately, without such action constituting a breach or incurring any liability herein.
