A Force Majeure Event suffered by a subcontractor of a Party shall also discharge such a Party from liability if subcontracting from another source cannot be made without unreasonable costs or a significant delay.

Should the organiser need to postpone beyond a 13 month period, all participation fees will be refunded within 30 days of the decision.
