The Performance Security shall be valid upto [12 months after Scheduled Project Completion Date]. 

Provided that If the Agreement is terminated due to any event other than a Concessionaire Event of Default, as defined in Clause [ref], the Performance Security if subsisting as of the Termination Date shall, subject to the Authority's right to receive amounts, if any, due from the Concessionaire under this Agreement, be duly discharged and released to the Concessionaire.
