The Advertiser shall, apart from agreeing the proposed Campaign Price, also stipulate and notify RNM about the maximum cost per play (CPP) rate it is prepared to pay during the Stream Campaign. Any additional Fees that may be incurred by RNM in relation to this, will be deducted from the Advertiser’s Account.

5.7 In the event that RNM is unable to place the Advertising Material for the particular Stream Campaign for more than four (4) consecutive months, RNM shall not be required to refund the Fees paid by the Advertiser but the Advertiser shall has the right to use those Fees for another Stream Campaign provided that any such new Stream Campaign commences within one (1) consecutive months of the expiry of the original Stream Campaign. This Clause 5.7 sets out the Advertiser’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of non-availability of Online Radio Streams for the particular Stream Campaign.

5.8 In the case of the Advertiser Instruction being changed during the any Stream Campaign, and RNM being unable to comply with any such change,  RNM has the right to continue the Stream Campaign which as much as possible reflects the required change and, if not possible, complete the Stream Campaign as originally agreed with the Advertiser.
