In acting on behalf of the Customer to arrange such Additional Services RHL does not take responsibility or accept any liability for the same for any failure, delay or breach of any duty of any nature in the performance (or by reason of the non-performance) of the same save only such responsibility or liabilities which it may not exclude by law.

The Customer agrees that RHL is entitled to retain any balance to defray the additional costs, expenses and administrative time incurred by it in its efforts to resell the Event Package.
