      security, penalty for late delivery, or termination for default if and to the extent that its

      Purchaser in writing, the Supplier will continue to perform its obligations under the
      Contract as far as is reasonable in practice, and will seek all reasonable alternative
      means for performance not prevented by the Force Majeure event.
        i.     If the supplier fails to deliver any or all of the Materials / equipment within the
               period(s) specified in the Contract, or within any extension thereof granted by the
               Purchaser.

       procure, upon such terms and in such manner, as it deems appropriate, materials/
       equipment or services similar to those undelivered, and the supplier will be liable to the
       purchaser for any excess costs for such similar materials/equipment or services.

       terminated.

       The Purchaser may at any time terminate the contract by giving written notice to the
       Supplier if the Supplier becomes bankrupt or otherwise insolvent. In this event,
       termination will be without compensation to the supplier, provided that such termination
       will not prejudice or not affect any right of action or remedy, which was accrued or will
       accrue thereafter to the Purchaser.
