If this occurs, either party may suspend performance of its obligations under this Contract while the Force Majeure continues or may, after 30 days of a continuing Force Majeure, without liability, terminate any affected Purchase Order or this Contract immediately by giving the other written notice. For the avoidance of doubt, standard service fees will be waived for any period where services are totally unavailable due to a Force Majeure event, but you remain liable for all billing charges accrued up to the date the Force Majeure event commenced.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><b>15.
