the affected party shall notify the other party immediately in writing of the invocation of this Article 28.5, and each party’s obligations hereunder to the other shall be suspended for the duration of such force majeure event; provided,

(30) days in the aggregate in any six (6) month period, the non-affected party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time upon written Notice to the other party. Nothing in this Article 28.5 is meant to relieve
