    2. Acceptance and Termination Rights. If Cazoo amends the Fees, or amends the Terms in a way that materially reduces the Dealer’s rights or imposes a material new obligation, the Dealer may terminate the Agreement by providing written notice to Cazoo on or before the effective date of the change. Continued use of the Services after the effective date of the change shall constitute acceptance of the amended Fees or Terms, as applicable.
