Force Majeure

A party shall have no liability to the other party if it is prevented from or delayed in performing its obligations under the Agreement or from carrying on its business by acts, events, omissions or accidents beyond its reasonable control, including strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes (whether involving the workforce of the Supplier, the Client or any other party), failure of a utility service or transport network, act of God, war, riot, civil commotion, malicious damage, compliance with any law or governmental order, rule, regulation or direction, accident, breakdown of plant or machinery, fire, flood, or storm (a 'Force Majeure Event'). Should the Force Majeure Event continue for longer than one month (or such other period as the parties may have expressly agreed in writing), the party adversely affected shall have the option of terminating the Agreement immediately without further liability other than such liabilities as have already accrued up to the effective date of termination.
