If Set-Up has not been completed upon expiration of the 90 Day Period due to (i) inaction or (ii) lack of effort by Buyer, then Seller shall, in its sole discretion, provide reasonable notice to Buyer that call forwarding shall cease. At such time, Seller will no longer be obligated to deliver the Number to Buyer and all rights associated with the Number shall revert back to Seller including but not limited to, the right to sell, license or allow use of the Number to a third party or for Seller’s own use. Buyer shall not be entitled to a refund of any monies paid.
