The Party invoking force majeure must notify the other Party by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt. The performance of the obligations of the prevented Party will then be postponed for a period equal to that of the duration of the suspension due to this cause.

- or rectify the situation by acquiring or granting the prior rights claimed.
