However, Member acknowledges and agrees that there is NO GUARANTY OF UNINTERRUPTED ELECTRIC SERVICE.

Notwithstanding any provision herein, REMC reserves the right to suspend the supply of electrical energy to any member for the purposes of making repairs, changes, or improvements to any part of the system.

FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party shall be liable for damages due to delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement if such delay or failure results directly or indirectly from acts of God, acts of war, perturbation in telecommunications transmissions, inability to obtain suitable equipment or components, accident, fire, water damages, flood, earthquake, or other natural catastrophes. This Section shall not apply to the obligation to pay the charges set forth herein.

ACCESS TO MEMBER PROPERTY.
