Any such attempted assignment of rights or delegation or subcontracting of duties without complying with the foregoing shall be void and ineffective. Any such delegation or subcontracting consented to by shall not relieve the Party of its responsibilities and liabilities hereunder, and the delegating or subcontracting Party shall remain liable to the other Party for the conduct and performance of each permitted delegate and subcontractor hereunder.

In such event, the Party delayed shall promptly give notice to the other Party, and shall endeavor in good faith to eliminate, cure or overcome any such causes and to resume performance of its obligations as soon as possible.  The Party affected by the other Party’s delay may elect to:  (a) suspend performance and extend the time for performance for the duration of the event, or (b) cancel all or part of any part of
