That interest will be paid by the Customer to the Supplier on demand.
20.6 The Supplier reserves the right to charge the Customer at the Supplier’s standard rates from time to time for any work carried out by the Supplier which is not included in the Services and for any additional work and/or additional expenses caused by any delay, act or omission by the Customer or any Third Party.
20.7 Unless written notice of termination from either party is received by email, fax or post at least ten (10) days before the expiration date of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be automatically renewed, under the same terms and conditions, for another term as set out under the Service Schedule, and the same notice and renewal terms shall apply to each subsequent renewal period.
