What is the outcome of mediation—do we sign an agreement?

Yes. If the parties resolve the dispute, mediation typically concludes with a written settlement agreement specifying:

  • payment terms (if any)

  • permitted usage or removal requirements

  • future licensing rights (if any)

  • confidentiality

  • release of claims

This provides finality and prevents the dispute from resurfacing.
