For purposes of this Section, the term "attorneys' fees" includes, without limitation, paralegal fees, investigative fees, expert witness fees, administrative costs, disbursements, and all other charges billed by legal counsel for the Prevailing Party. The Parties agree any action in relation to an alleged breach of this Agreement shall be commenced within one (1) year from the date the breach is discovered. Any action not brought within that one-year time period shall be barred, without regard to any other limitations period set forth by law or statute.
