Payments; Default Clause Samples
The "Payments; Default" clause defines the obligations of a party to make timely payments under the agreement and outlines the consequences if those payments are not made as required. Typically, this clause specifies when payments are due, acceptable methods of payment, and what constitutes a default, such as late or missed payments. In the event of a default, the clause may allow the non-defaulting party to charge interest, demand immediate payment of outstanding amounts, or pursue other remedies. Its core function is to ensure financial discipline and provide a clear process for addressing payment failures, thereby protecting the interests of the party expecting payment.
