Spanish term

demoras y tolerancias

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Law: Contract(s)
From a Chilean service provision agreement:

"Las demoras y/o tolerancias de el Proveedor en requerir el cumplimiento de alguna disposición del presente no implicará renuncia alguna a su derecho ni modificación al mismo..."

Would this be "delays and tolerances", or is there a formulaic phrase in English for this concept that I'm missing?
