DELAY IN POSSESSION Sample Clauses
The "Delay in Possession" clause defines the procedures and consequences when the transfer of possession of property or premises is postponed beyond the agreed date. Typically, this clause outlines the rights and obligations of both parties in the event of a delay, such as extensions of time, compensation, or remedies available to the affected party. For example, if a seller cannot deliver a property to the buyer on the scheduled date due to construction delays, this clause would specify what happens next. Its core function is to manage expectations and allocate responsibility, thereby reducing disputes and providing a clear framework for handling delays in possession.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time during the construction period, Landlord reasonably believes that the Commencement Date will not occur on or before April 30, 2011, Landlord may notify Tenant in writing of such fact and of a new outside date on or before which the Commencement Date will occur, and Tenant must elect within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice to either terminate this Lease or waive its right to terminate this Lease provided the Commencement Date occurs on or prior to the new outside date established by Landlord in such notice to Tenant. Tenant’s failure to elect to terminate this Lease within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed Tenant’s waiver of its right to terminate this Lease as provided in this paragraph as to the previous outside date, but not as to the new outside date established by said notice.”
