As per our Sub-Contract Agreement, Clause 16, Payment, the payment for the certified amount shall be processed from date of submission of monthly payment application, (b) 80% value of BOQ amount based on progress of works at site through Letter of Credit (100 days credit).

By failing establishing the Letter of Credit (L/C) in accordance with out Sub-Contract you are withholding due payments from M/s xxx (Contractor Name) for work done and certified.
Accordingly, please note that if the L/C is not opened at the latest by close of business on 12 December xxx, M/s xxx (Contractor Name) reserves its rights to take any action it deems necessary including suspending delivery of pods until such time as the Main Contractor releases payment in accordance with the terms of our Sub-Contract.
M/s xxx (Contractor Name) will not be liable for any delay caused by your default on your contractual liabilities, as such delays are on account on xxx acts. In addition we reserve our rights under the Terms of our Sub-Contract Agreement for an Extension of Time (EOT) equivalent to the same number of days by which the advance payment, certification and progress payments are delayed.
This is for your information & necessary action.
Yours faithfully,
On behalf of M/s xxx (Contractor Name) LLC
