23.1 Non-payment

and in the currency in which it is expressed to be payable unless:
23.1.1 its failure to pay is caused by:(a) administrative or technical error; or (b) a Disruption Event; and
23.1.2 payment is made within two thirty Business Days of its due date.
[As non payment is for technical reasons, the banks are facing no material risk and Borrower needs a realistic
time to identify and rectify the error.]
