5.7. NOTIFICATION OF DELAY. Contractor shall provide prompt notice to Participant and Enterprise Services for any delay in the manufacturing process that will affect the expected delivery date. Contractor will provide notice of the delay within fourteen (14)days of discovery of the potential delay. This notice of delay must include a reasonable expectation of when the delay will be resolved, the reason for the delay, whether the delay will cause the delivery to exceed the delivery date, and any other applicable information regarding the delay. ■ Participant shall provide Contractor with notice of acceptance of the reasonable delay or notice that the delay is determined to be non-excusable within seven (7) days of receipt of the notice of delay. ■ If there is a dispute between Contractor and Participant as to whether the delay is reasonable, Contractor may appeal Participant's decision to Enterprise Services within seven (7)days of receipt of the notice that the delay is non-excusable. Enterprise Services will review the provided information and make a final determination as to whether the delay is reasonable or non-excusable. If a dispute remains after this procedure, parties shall follow the dispute resolution process of Section 16. ■ Contractor shall promptly comply with any request from Enterprise Services or Participant for additional information in making the delay determination. A request for more information from Enterprise Services or Participant tolls the time for required response until the time that Contractor responds to the request for more information. ■ Reasonable delay is a delay for which the Contractor is not responsible. A reasonable delay must arise from unforeseeable causes, be beyond the control of Contractor,and be without the fault of the Contractor. A reasonable delay will extend the delivery date by the agreed upon length of the delay. ■ Non-excusable delay is a delay for which Contractor is wholly or partially responsible.
