Relief Lines Sample Clauses
The Relief Lines clause defines the specific circumstances under which a party is excused from performing certain contractual obligations due to events beyond their control. Typically, this clause outlines what constitutes a relief event, such as natural disasters, government actions, or other force majeure situations, and details the process for notifying the other party and the duration of the relief period. Its core practical function is to allocate risk by providing a clear mechanism for suspending obligations when unforeseen events occur, thereby protecting parties from liability for non-performance in exceptional situations.
