Such audits shall be carried out at the Customer’s cost and expense.

The findings in respect of the performed audit will be discussed and evaluated by the parties and, where applicable, implemented accordingly as the case may be by one of the parties or jointly by both parties. The costs of the audit will be borne by the Customer.
