2.3.2 Second Lesson Learned – Arbitration Provides Flexibility regarding the Procedure to Be Used, Which Allows Tribunals to Request Calculations to Be Prepared Jointly by the Parties’ Appointed Experts
2.3.3 Third Lesson Learned – Claimants May Request a Tax Gross-Up, but They Face a High Evidentiary Threshold to Prove That a Specific Tax Will Apply and That It Is More Burdensome Than the Tax Which Would Have Applied (in the But-for Scenario) to Profits Which Would Have Been Obtained If the Treaty Had Not Been Violated
