Earlier Termination Clause Samples

The 'Earlier Termination' clause allows one or both parties to end an agreement before its originally scheduled expiration date. This clause typically outlines the specific conditions or events—such as breach of contract, insolvency, or mutual agreement—that would permit early termination, and may require advance written notice or the fulfillment of certain obligations before termination is effective. Its core practical function is to provide flexibility and a clear exit mechanism, protecting parties from being bound to an agreement that is no longer viable or beneficial.
