Force Majeure Event Exceeds Clause Samples

The 'Force Majeure Event exceeds' clause defines what happens if a force majeure event—an unforeseeable circumstance preventing contract performance—continues beyond a specified duration. Typically, this clause allows either party to terminate the contract if the force majeure event lasts longer than the agreed threshold, such as 30 or 60 days. Its core function is to provide a clear exit mechanism for both parties when extraordinary events make ongoing performance impractical or impossible, thereby allocating risk and ensuring neither party is indefinitely bound by circumstances beyond their control.
