Bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding means bankruptcy proceedings or in Scotland sequestration proceedings, becoming insolvent, making any composition or arrangement with creditors or an assignment for their benefit, any execution, distress, diligence or seizure: or if the User is a company, being the subject of proceedings for the appointment of an administrator, going into liquidation whether voluntary or compulsory (except for the purpose of amalgamation or reconstruction) or having a receiver or administrative receiver of any assets appointed.

If the Company waives a breach of Agreement by the User, that waiver is limited to the particular breach. Any delay by the Company in acting upon a breach is not to be regarded in itself as a waiver.

Either party on giving at least 30 day’s notice to the other may terminate this Agreement. If the Company gives notice the User shall pay all charges up to the expiry of the notice. If the User gives notice, the User shall pay all charges until 30 days after the date the Company receives the notice or until expiry of the notice, whichever is the latter.
