The timeframe for the fulfillment of the hindered obligation shall be extended accordingly. The Case of Force Majeure cannot be invoked for payment obligations.

The Affected Party must, as soon as reasonably possible, notify the other Party in writing of the occurrence of a Case of Force Majeure, its start date, and the impact of this Case of Force Majeure on its ability to fulfill its obligations. Upon cessation of the Case of Force Majeure, the Affected Party will promptly notify the other Party of this cessation and resume performance of the affected obligations. If a Case of Force Majeure persists for thirty (30) consecutive days or more, either Party may terminate the part of the Contract related to the Affected Services on a specified date in a written termination notice to the other Party.

7.3. Unforeseen Circumstances – In the event of unforeseen and/or unpredictable circumstances at the time of the Contract’s conclusion, making the Supplier’s obligations significantly and excessively more burdensome, the Supplier has the right, at any time, to request a revision of the affected parts of the Contract. These circumstances must not be attributable to the Supplier, and the Supplier must not have agreed to assume the risk under the Contract. During the renegotiation period, the Parties continue to fulfill their obligations.
