If any Deductions are to be made, then the fee payable will be increased by such amount as necessary to ensure that the amounts that EMVCo actually receives, excluding taxes that EMVCo is required to collect, reflects the amounts in the above table. In such case, written notice of the revised fee amount and Deductions must be given to EMVCo at least thirty (30) days before the date the payment is due, so that EMVCo can issue a revised invoice reflecting the fee and Deductions. The issuance of a revised invoice will not change the original due date for payment.
