Dear Ms. Lian,

We are writing to put on record again that xxx is in blatant and flagrant default on Xxxx progress payments.  Your company has failed to certify and settle our progress payments as per our Sub-Contract Agreement payment terms.

  1. Our Interim Payment Application No. IPA-4 was due for payment on 26-Feb-xxxx and remains unsettled (please find attached copy of the certification).  The actual due date should be 12Feb-xxxx, but your certificate shows 26-Feb-xxxx.
    1. Default in payment is 69 days.
  2. Our Interim Payment Application No. IPA-5 was due for payment on 26-Mar-xxxx and remains unsettled (please find attached copy of the certification). The actual due date should be 14Mar-xxxx, but your certificate shows 26-Mar-xxxx.
    1. Default in payment is 40 days.
  3. Our Interim Payment Application No. IPA-6 was due for payment on 26-Apr-xxxx as per your certification and remains unsettled (please find attached copy of the certification).
    1. Default in payment is 9 days.
  4. Furthermore, our Interim Payment Application No. IPA-7 was submitted on 31-March-xxxx and remains uncertified till this date which is in breach of the terms of our Sub-Contract Agreement.

Your consistent and continuous default in settling our invoices is causing us serious cash flow issues.  Xxxx cannot continue financing your project without being paid.  Xxxx faced, and is increasingly facing difficulties paying its suppliers to source the necessary material for your project.

  • Accordingly, Xxxx will not be liable for any delay caused by your default on your contractual liabilities and reserves its rights for an Extension of Time (EOT) equivalent to the same number of days by which your payment is delayed.
  • As a result, the schedule of delivery is pushed by an equivalent number of days, in addition to 84 days for the default in the advance payment (please refer to our previous correspondence on this matter). A revised schedule considering the above is attached for your information.
  • We further reserve our right for all other EOT claims related to change of design, delivery of free issue material, etc.

We urge you to settle all our overdue progress payments immediately. Xxxx will not be held liable for any impact the above may have on the delivery of pods or on any direct or indirect impact on site progress.

Yours faithfully,

On behalf of  xxx LLC
