    2. In response to such a written communication, The Henry Ford may give notice to the person or organization responsible for the posting of the Disputed Content ("User") by means of electronic mail to a User's e-mail address or by written communication sent by first-class mail to a User's address if such address is present in the records of The Henry Ford.
    3. If a User believes that Disputed Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that the User has the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or pursuant to the law, to post and use the Disputed Content, the User may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent for The Henry Ford:
      1. User's physical or electronic signature;
      2. Identification of the Disputed Content that was removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the Disputed Content appeared before it was removed or disabled;

    4. If a counter-notice is received by the Copyright Agent, The Henry Ford may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that The Henry Ford may replace the removed Disputed Content or cease disabling it in ten (10) business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the provider of the Disputed Content, the removed Disputed Content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in ten to fourteen (10 – 14) business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at The Henry Ford's sole discretion.
