According to the CBA, it is: "48 hours beginning on the third day after Club's last salary arbitration award or settlement".
It all depends on when your final arbitration case is completed (whether you went to an arbitration ruling or not). The cases will be scheduled between July 20 and August 4. If your final case was scheduled for the 4th and that was the day it was resolved, the third day would be the 7th and the buyout window would be open for 48 hours from the 7th to the 9th.
That's the absolute latest the second window could be opened.
