If Targa’s compliance with the Uptime Availability or the performance of its obligations under the Contract or any Order is prevented or delayed by any act or omission of the Customer, its agents, subcontractors, consultants or employees then the Uptime Availability shall not apply and without prejudice to any other right or remedy it may have, Targa shall be allowed an extension of time equal to the delay caused to perform its obligations and shall not be liable for any costs, charges or losses sustained by the Customers that arise directly or indirectly from or in connection with such prevention or delay.
Any time incurred by Targa in investigating alleged faults or non-conformities with the Service notified to it by the Customer, which are later found not to have existed, may be charged to the Customer in accordance with Targa’s then-current standard rates (together with any third party Customer costs incurred in investigating the same). The Customer shall be entitled to see reasonable documentary evidence attesting to such third party costs.
If the Customer can prove to Targa’s reasonable satisfaction that, due to Targa’s own act or omission, Targa has failed to provide the Goods and/or Services in accordance with the terms of the Contract or at all, then Targa may at its option remedy such breach:
by re-performing the relevant part of the Goods and/or Services free of charge up to the amount of the Charges received by Targa for the provision of such Services (exclusive of any VAT); or
by repaying or crediting to the Contract that part of the Charges paid by the Contract to Targa relating to the relevant part of the Services which have not been performed in accordance with the Agreement (exclusive of any VAT),

7.2.1 without limiting or affecting any other right or remedy available to it, Targa shall have the right to suspend performance of the Services until the Customer remedies the Customer Default, and to rely on the Customer Default to relieve it from the performance of any of its obligations in each case to the extent the Customer Default prevents or delays Targa’s performance of any of its obligations;

In any case where Targa would be entitled to terminate this Contract, instead of terminating this Contract as a whole, Targa may (acting in its sole discretion), without liability, elect to terminate individual elements of the Goods and/or Services only, by serving written notice on the Customer to that effect, specifying those Goods and/or Services which it is electing to terminate.
If Targa chooses to exercise its right of partial termination in accordance with Condition 8.5 the provisions of Condition 9 shall apply only to those Goods and/or Services which have been terminated, and the provisions of this Contract shall remain in full force and effect in respect of all other Goods and/or Services already performed, or currently in progress, or to be performed by the Customer in future under this Contract.

Without prejudice to any other right or remedy of Targa, where the Customer fails to pay any undisputed Charges due under the Contract by the due date for such Charges, Targa shall be entitled to suspend supply and/or performance of the portion of Services to which the Charges relate, until it has received payment in full, but without prejudice to Customer’s obligation to continue making payments in accordance with the Contract during the period of any such suspension.
