for any late payment.
SECTION 2.4 Payment Schedule: Total balance of charges will be owed to “Caterer” thirty (30) days prior to the
event date. A PHP 1,000 late fee will be charged to Client if the balance is not paid in full by the specified balance
due date on the customer invoice. Payment must be made by cash or equivalent thirty (30) days prior to the

Client will be in default on this contract and the terms stipulated in Section 2.5 “Default by Client” will apply. In any
special circumstances whereby event is accommodated by Caterer two (2) weeks or less prior to event date, full
payment shall be made on or before the specified balance due date on the customer invoice. Invoice issued by Caterer,
which stipulated the package and service ordered by the client shall form part of this contract agreement.
SECTION 2.5 Default by Client: In the event of failure to pay for this contract by Client, Caterer shall provide to Client
written notice of the default, specifying the nature of the breach. If the breach is not settled before the end of five
(5) business days after receipt of such notice or the first day of the License Period, Caterer may terminate this
agreement without liability.
SECTION 3: Event Modifications
SECTION 3.1 Guest Count Adjustments: Number of Guest Changes/Amendments: Client understands that the final
number of guaranteed guests is due 30 days prior to event at time of final payment. If the client fails to confirm a
Guaranteed Number of Guests, then Caterer will provide services for Expected Number of Guests quoted. Client
understands that a decrease in the guaranteed number of guests and/or the actual number of guests may result in
higher “per person” cost (i.e., client guaranteed 150 guests at 800/person. However, client changes the guaranteed
number of guests to 100. The client will now pay 1000/person.)* and client is responsible for all cost associated with
the change. The final number of guaranteed guests is no longer subject to reduction within 14 days prior to event. The final bill will be based on the minimum guaranteed number of guests or the actual attendance whichever is
greater. Client understands that if all Guaranteed Guests do not arrive on day of event, there will be no refund paid
to Client by Caterer and any costs associated with guests not arriving will be the full responsibility of client. In the
event that the total number of guests exceeded the number of guests guaranteed and the Caterer was able to cater
for the excess number, the total event cost will be based on the total actual number of guests catered to at the
agreed price per head.
*These numbers are solely being used for this example and may not apply to your particular contract. Please discuss
your contract and any changes to your contract with your Naimas Catering Representative
