peer agreement (net): -1intervals at which services take place Explanation: One should not confuse the time for rendering services... (Your use of the word "confound" is correct but it is rarely used in this sense nowadays - a confounded nuisance, perhaps, but that's the way it is!) ...a long-term contract specifying the intervals at which services take place. |

which stipulates service cycles Explanation: without knowing what sort of services you're talking about, this is difficult. Also, I would drop the "One" and start with "the time...should not be ..." and yes, agree with Jack, don't use confounded. Also, "in any case" sounds a bit casual, perhaps it does in the Russian too but I'd think about replacing it with something that sounds more business-like |

We nailed it together, how is that for intercontinental cooperation? I would be perfectly happy to pass on my points to you, if earned and if possible, as the final author of the best version. |
