Defect Amounts Clause Samples
The 'Defect Amounts' clause defines how financial values are assigned to defects or non-conformities identified in goods, services, or contractual deliverables. Typically, this clause outlines the method for calculating the monetary impact of a defect, such as referencing repair costs, replacement values, or agreed-upon penalties. By specifying these amounts, the clause provides a clear mechanism for compensating the non-breaching party and helps allocate risk by quantifying the consequences of defects, thereby reducing disputes over damages.
Defect Amounts. The diminution of value of the Assets attributable to any Defect (the “Defect Amount”) shall be determined as follows:
(i) if Purchaser and Sellers agree on the Defect Amount, that amount shall be the Defect Amount;
(ii) if a Title Defect is a Lien which is liquidated in amount, then the Defect Amount shall be the amount necessary to be paid to remove the Title Defect from Sellers’ interest in the affected Assets;
(iii) if a Title Defect represents a negative discrepancy between (A) the actual Net Revenue Interest for any Well and (B) the “Net Revenue Interest” percentage stated on Exhibit A-2, Part 1 for such Well, then the Defect Amount shall be equal to (1) the product of the Allocated Value of such Well multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is (x) the remainder of (i) the “Revenue Interest” percentage stated on Exhibit A-2, Part 1 for such Well minus (ii) the actual Net Revenue Interest of such Well, and the denominator of which is (y) the “Net Revenue Interest” percentage stated on Exhibit A-2, Part 1 for such Well; provided that if the Title Defect does not affect the “ Revenue Interest” percentage stated on Exhibit A-2, Part 1 for such Well throughout its entire productive life, the Defect Amount determined under this Section 3.2(c)(iii) shall be reduced to take into account the applicable time period only;
(iv) if the Title Defect represents an obligation, encumbrance, burden or charge upon or other defect in title to the affected Oil and Gas Property of a type not described in Section 3.2(c)(i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Defect Amount shall be determined by taking into account the Allocated Value of the Oil and Gas Property so affected, the portion of Sellers’ interest in the Oil and Gas Property affected by the Title Defect, the legal effect of the Title Defect, the potential economic effect of the Title Defect over the life of the affected Oil and Gas Property, the values placed upon the Title Defect by Purchaser and Seller and such other factors as are necessary to make a proper evaluation and determination of such value;
(v) if a Title Defect as to a particular tract or parcel of any Lease (or portion thereof) included in any Undeveloped Acreage represents Sellers holding Defensible Title to a number of Net Revenue Interest Acres as to the tract(s) or parcel(s) constituting Undeveloped Acreage that is less than the number set forth in the “Net Revenue Interest Acres” column of Exhibit A-2, Part 2 for such tract(s) or parcel(s), t...

Defect Amounts. The diminution of value of the Assets attributable to any valid Defect that burdens an Asset (the “Defect Amount”) shall be determined as follows:
(i) if Purchaser and Sellers agree on the Defect Amount, that amount shall be the Defect Amount;
