The remaining payments are collected in accordance with the payment schedule set out in Article 6.

In the event of termination, sums paid for services not performed will be refunded, less justified and irreversibly incurred costs as of the date of the event.
Obligations already performed or due before the occurrence of force majeure remain payable.
