Otherwise, if an agreement has not been reached

Hi everybody;

Please have a look at this quote :

" we will apply a provisional price until conclusion of renewal agreement. Otherwise, if an agreement has not been reached, the provisional price will be deemed as agreed and confirmed as final."

Is it correct to use the Present Perfect Continuous here :" If an agreement has not been reached" ?

The reason I'm asking is that my colleague believes it's incorrect to use this tense this way after "if"...maybe there is better ways to say it, but I want just to know if this sentence is correct or not .

Anonymous Otherwise, if an agreement has not been reached, the provisional price will be deemed as agreed and confirmed as final. That seems fine to me. There is no reason that present perfect cannot appear in a conditional clause.
