of the forty-five-day period), provided that, said failure is through no fault of the
terminating party.

efforts to transmit all funds of Employer and the Participating Employees then in
the possession of VRSCO to the Approved Vendors and shall return any
remaining funds to Employer.
23.4 VRSCO agrees if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 23, then,
at the option of Employer, VRSCO shall continue to perform the Services in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement until either a

entity, including VRSCO’s provision once during each month during the
