Milestone Based Options Clause Samples

The Milestone Based Options clause establishes that certain rights, obligations, or options within a contract become available or are triggered upon the achievement of specific, predefined milestones. In practice, this means that a party may gain the right to purchase additional goods, extend a contract, or receive further services only after meeting agreed-upon performance targets or project phases. This structure ensures that progress is incentivized and that commitments are only made when measurable objectives are met, thereby reducing risk and aligning both parties’ interests with the successful completion of key project stages.
