Lost Check Clause Samples

The Lost Check clause outlines the procedures to follow if a check issued under the agreement is lost, stolen, or destroyed before it is cashed or deposited. Typically, this clause requires the payee to notify the payer of the missing check and may obligate the payee to provide an affidavit or indemnity before a replacement check is issued. Its core function is to ensure that lost payments can be replaced efficiently while protecting the payer from potential double payment or fraud.
