1. Notwithstanding any other term of the Contract, if you provide notice to us in writing on or after 11 February 2023 (but no later than 27 March 2023) accompanied by evidence in form and substance satisfactory to us that as a direct result of COVID-19 (which terms includes any mutation thereof):
(i) the government of the country or state where you are registered (the “Sponsor Territory”) has closed its international border so that the majority of your representatives attending the Event are prohibited from travel from or back to the Sponsor Territory for the Event; and/or
(ii) the government of the Sponsor Territory has issued official advice against travel to United Kingdom; and/or
(iii) the government of the Sponsor Territory has imposed a quarantine on return from travel from United Kingdom; and/or
(iv) the government or state of the Sponsor Territory imposes a period of lockdown so that the majority of your representatives attending the Event are prohibited from leaving their home except for essential requirement.
then you may obtain a credit equal to an amount reflecting the total sums paid by you at the date of notification minus the value of any Sponsorship Rights and/or Services received prior to such date (calculated in good faith).
2. Notwithstanding any other term of the Contract, if we determine that as a direct result of COVID-19 it has become commercially impractical or unfeasible to hold the Event, we will provide notice in writing to you as soon as is reasonably practicable, and we will endeavour to reschedule the Event to a date which falls within the same calendar year as the Event (the ‘Contingency Event’). If we are able to do so, your Sponsor Benefits will be transferred to the Contingency Event. If we are unable to do so, then you may obtain a credit equal to an amount reflecting the total sums paid by you at the date of notification minus the value of any Sponsorship Rights and/or Services received prior to such date (calculated in good faith).
