If, at any time during implementation of the transfer plan, Company wishes to stop the transfer process, the parties will use all reasonable efforts to mitigate expenses. Company acknowledges and agrees that monthly installments of the transfer payment are not refundable and are not credited towards a future transfer payment if Company elects to resume the transfer process.
