If no such term exists, the liquidation shall be carried out within four (4) months following the expiration of the term set for the execution of the contract or the issuance of the administrative act ordering the termination, or the date of the agreement providing for it".

During the term of suspension and until the time when the proceedings are resumed, the terms of expiration, prescription, or finality provided for in the law regulating the matter shall not apply.
