All expenses of transportation and storage, if any, resulting therefrom will be Supplier's responsibility. Any shipments made earlier than the scheduled time or in amounts above ordered quantities may be returned by Primus at Supplier's expense. Supplier is solely responsible for keeping Primus informed as to its progress in completing the Order and will submit to Primus such progress schedules, reports, estimates, records and other data as may be requested concerning work performed or to be performed under the Order.

Failure to agree upon any additional charges will not relieve Supplier from its obligation to perform in accordance with the changes specified by Primus.
