Relations with Contractors. The relations between the Client and the Contractor are defined in Section 3 of the present Memorandum of Agreement and the building contract. Furthermore, the Client declares to have been informed by the Architect of the obligations binding her/him concerning sub-contracts by application of Act N° 00-0000 0000 and, in particular, the fact that: ▪ the Contractor who resorts to sub-contracting has to have her/his sub-contractors accepted and their terms of payment agreed by the Client; and ▪ in default of direct payment to the sub-contractors by delegation, the Client should insist that the Contractor provides evidence that it has provided a personal and joint and severally guarantee from a financial establishment to secure the sums that they are due. C7 SUSPENSION OF APPOINTMENT The Client can request the suspension of the Appointment. It can also be requested by the Architect if because of the Client, and in particular, in the event of late payment of fees due, non-respect of deadlines by the Client, or because outside events hinder the progress of the project, her/his Appointment cannot continue under the provisions of the present Agreement. The Party who requests or claims suspension notifies the other Party. The suspension can be given only after formal notice remains unheeded within 30 calendar days of receipt by the other Party. In the event of suspension for late payments, the fees are then paid in proportion to the services performed and expenses advanced, with application of a 10% increase calculated on the total fee amount stipulated in the Agreement. The provisions of clause C 5.5.2 apply. When the Appointment resumes, the fees already paid are deducted from the total fee amount with the exception of the aforementioned increase. If necessary, an amendment specifies the terms and conditions for the resumption of the Appointment. Except as agreed between the Parties, if the Appointment is not resumed within a period of 90 days following receipt of the notice of suspension, the Agreement is considered terminated and the provisions of clause C 9 apply.
