Common use of FAILURE IN PERFORMANCE Clause in Contracts

FAILURE IN PERFORMANCE. No liability shall result to either party from delay in performance or non-performance in whole or in part caused by circumstances reasonably beyond the control of the party affected, including but not limited to acts of God, terrorist activity, transportation failure, breakdowns, equipment failure, criminal enterprise, sabotage, diminishment, or failure of power, telecommunications, data systems or networks, shortage or inability to obtain Product or raw material for Product, or good-faith compliance with any governmental order or request (whether valid or invalid). Notwithstanding any other notice requirement in this Agreement, actual notice (e.g., phone, email, letter) to a counterparty of a delay or failure described in this provision will constitute effective notice for purposes of this provision. Regardless, however, of the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any such circumstances, if for any reason supplies of or distribution logistics for Product, or feedstock for making Product, from any of Seller's existing sources are curtailed or are inadequate to meet Seller's own requirements and/or its obligations to its customers, Seller's obligation to deliver Product during such period shall be reduced to the extent necessary, in Seller's sole judgment, to apportion fairly among Seller's own requirements and its customers (whether under contract or not) such Product as received and as may be available in the ordinary and usual course of Seller's business from any existing sources of supply at the location(s) from which deliveries like those covered hereby are normally shipped. Seller shall not be obligated to purchase or obtain Product, or feedstock to make Product, to replace deliveries omitted or curtailed under this paragraph.
