undisputed part of this amount, independent of the existence of agreement between the Parties about the part of the amount that is being negotiated. 

  

	 	4.4.	In order to guarantee the faithful fulfillment of the obligations foreseen in this Contract, the SELLER may demand from the PURCHASER the presentation of a bank
guarantee letter from a financial institution with a deposit amount among the 10 (ten) largest national banks, or a bond equivalent to the 3 (three) highest billing months.
