Either party may elect to terminate this Contract in the event that the other party fails to pay any amount payable hereunder as and when due and such default has continued unremedied for a period of 45 (forty five) calendar days after written notice thereof is given by the party to whom the sums are due save for if such party has failed to make payment due to quality or other associated claims under this Contract.

This Contract shall terminate at the option of either party if the other party materially defaults in the performance or observance of any material obligations hereunder and fails to remedy the default within 45 (forty five) calendar days after receiving written demand therefor. This Contract shall terminate at the option of either party if the other party becomes insolvent or bankrupt or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy is appointed for the other party, or if any proceeding in bankruptcy, receivership, or liquidation is instituted against the other party and is not dismissed within 45 (forty five) calendar days following commencement thereof.

All accrued sums, rights and obligations arising hereunder that are still outstanding at the time of termination of this Contract shall survive such termination and shall not be affected thereby. Termination of this Contract shall not affect any shipments of Concentrate ordered by the Buyer prior to such termination which shall continue and be paid for as if this Contract were continuing, without liability to the Buyer. Where such cancellation occurs and the Buyer has paid a Provisional Payment to the Seller, the Seller shall reimburse the same within [fourteen (14) calendar days] of such cancellation.

On termination of this Contract (however arising) the following clauses shall survive and continue in full force and effect: 3, 6, 8, 9, 11 to 14 (inclusive) and 18 to 27 (inclusive).


23.        VARIATIONS and WAIVER

This Contract may only be varied by agreement in writing signed by duly authorized representatives of the Buyer and Seller.

A waiver (which may be given subject to conditions) of any right or remedy provided under this Contract or by law shall only be effective if it is in writing and shall apply only to the party to whom it is addressed and for the specific circumstances for which it is given. It shall not prevent the party who has given the waiver from subsequently relying on the right or remedy in other circumstances.

Unless specifically provided otherwise, rights arising under this Contract are cumulative and do not exclude rights provided by law.


24.        ENTIRE CONTRACT

This Contract and any documents or schedules referred to in it constitute the whole Contract between the parties and supersede any previous arrangement, understanding or agreement between them relating to the subject matter of this agreement.

Each party acknowledges that, in entering into this Contract and the documents and schedules referred to in it, it does not rely on any statement, representation, assurance or warranty ("Representation") of any person {whether a party to this Contract or not) other than as expressly set out in this Contract or those documents or schedules. Each party agrees that the only remedies available to it arising out of or in connection with a Representation shall be for breach of contract as expressly provided in this Contract, save that nothing in this clause shall limit or exclude any liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
