All questions and statements must be addressed to the Commission. Not more than three persons, including any attorney appearing as counsel, may participate in the informal meeting on behalf of either party.

4. The parties must consent to the presence of nonparty representatives at the informal meeting, except the consent of the parties is not required for the presence of an attorney appearing as counsel for a party.

5. Either party may waive the right to participate in the informal meeting. If either party fails to cooperate with the Commission in any matter concerning the informal meeting, the Commission will consider such a failure to cooperate a waiver of the right to participate in the informal meeting.
