Coordinated Cut Clause Samples
The Coordinated Cut clause establishes a process for multiple parties to simultaneously end or modify their contractual obligations under certain conditions. In practice, this clause typically outlines the steps required for all involved parties to agree on the timing and terms of the coordinated action, such as providing notice or meeting specific criteria before the cut takes effect. Its core function is to ensure that changes or terminations are managed in a synchronized manner, reducing the risk of confusion or disputes and maintaining fairness among all parties.
