Schlumberger shall provide a receipt in respect of any tax withheld. Where the requirements for any withholding are avoided by Supplier holding an appropriate valid exemption certificate it is the duty of Supplier to: (a) inform Schlumberger on a timely basis that such a certificate is held and to inform Schlumberger of any change to or cancellation of the certificate and; (b) provide copies of the certificate or any other proper documentation evidencing the exemption or any further information that may be required to avoid such withholding.

If said change(s) trigger(s) increased or decreased costs or a longer or shorter period for delivery of Products or provision of Services, or impacts any of the other conditions applicable to the Order as originally submitted, Supplier shall so notify Schlumberger within five (5) working days from Order change(s) receipt (unless a different period is agreed on the Order change). Failure by Supplier to do so shall constitute an unconditional waiver by Supplier to make a claim for adjustment, and be deemed acceptance to perform the Order change under the original applicable conditions. If Supplier so notified Schlumberger, the Parties shall agree on the applicable changes in the original conditions, based upon the supporting documentation submitted by Supplier, and Schlumberger shall elect whether to proceed or not. 7.5 Supplier shall not have the right at any time to make changes in any Order, unless Schlumberger expressly agrees thereto in writing.
