Contractor Aggregate Liability Clause Samples
The Contractor Aggregate Liability clause sets a maximum total amount that a contractor can be held financially responsible for under a contract. This cap typically applies to all claims, damages, or losses arising from the contractor’s performance, regardless of the number or type of incidents. For example, if the aggregate liability is set at $1 million, the contractor’s total exposure for all claims combined cannot exceed that amount. The core function of this clause is to limit the contractor’s overall financial risk, providing predictability and protecting them from potentially unlimited liability.
