Common use of EMERGENCY INSTRUCTIONS Clause in Contracts

EMERGENCY INSTRUCTIONS. In the event of an emergency, which, as determined by the Purchaser, threatens to disrupt the orderly performance of the Supply or endangers persons or property, the Purchaser may issue to the Supplier summary instructions, written if possible under the circumstances, otherwise oral instructions to be confirmed in writing by the Purchaser as soon as possible thereafter, to perform necessary action. The Supplier shall carry out such emergency actions. The foregoing shall not be construed as limiting Supplier’s duty to implement any reasonable measures necessary to prevent or mitigate current or imminent emergency circumstances endangering the life or bodily integrity of persons or property on or near the Site without delay upon discovering such circumstances. Should the Supplier fail to take necessary action in such circumstances, the Purchaser may choose to perform the necessary action by itself and/or to assign a third-party company of its choice for performing such action, at the Supplier’s risks and expenses.
