Early Termination Fee Clause Samples
An Early Termination Fee clause establishes a financial penalty that a party must pay if they end a contract before its agreed-upon expiration date. Typically, this fee is either a fixed amount or calculated based on the remaining term or value of the contract, and it applies when a party chooses to exit the agreement for reasons not permitted under the contract's standard termination provisions. The core function of this clause is to compensate the non-terminating party for losses or inconveniences caused by the premature ending of the contract, thereby discouraging early termination and providing predictability regarding potential costs.
