The figure of £***FILL***PCM will not be exceeded without prior permission of the Managing Director or any person with delegated responsibility on the part of “The Buyer”.

Both parties enter into this agreement on the understanding that there is likely to be a regular need to expend a similar amount of money on social media promotion, marketing and communication each calendar month. In the event that this is not the case, Social 90 accept that they will carry forward to the next month any unused time and that budget allocation will be applied in subsequent months until the expiry of the agreement at which point, if there is time not spent in the first six months, this will be carried forward for use on significant milestones in the project on an ad hoc basis.

Similarly, if Social 90 spend more time and effort than the figure of £***FILL***per month allows, they will make that clear in monthly report to “The Buyer” for the avoidance of doubt and so that both parties know the extent to which the retainer has been expended.
