Termination Fee Clause Samples

A Termination Fee clause establishes the financial penalty or payment required if one party ends the agreement before its scheduled completion. Typically, this fee is a fixed amount or a percentage of the contract value, and it applies when termination occurs for reasons not permitted under the contract, such as convenience or breach. The core function of this clause is to compensate the non-terminating party for losses or costs incurred due to early termination, thereby discouraging arbitrary contract cancellations and providing predictability in the event of an early exit.
