Your counter-notice must contain all of the following information in order to be a valid counter-notice:

The removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our sole discretion, unless the original complaining party seeks a court order to stop the replacing/restoring of the content.

    We suggest that you consult your legal adviser before filing a notice pursuant to this section.
