In such case, the terms and conditions and applicable Service Order(s) shall be modified solely to the extent necessary to reflect such modification(s); provided, that if such modification results in a material decrease in the functionality of the Services, then Customer may terminate the applicable Service Order if such material decrease is not remedied within thirty days notice from Customer.
