Qualifications and Exceptions Clause Samples
The "Qualifications and Exceptions" clause defines specific limitations or conditions under which the main obligations or rights in a contract may be modified or do not apply. This clause typically outlines scenarios where certain requirements are waived, adjusted, or subject to additional criteria, such as regulatory approvals, force majeure events, or compliance with applicable laws. Its core practical function is to provide flexibility and clarity by identifying circumstances that alter the standard terms, thereby reducing ambiguity and managing risk for both parties.

Qualifications and Exceptions. The opinions hereinafter expressed are also subject to the following qualifications and exceptions:
4.1. We are members of the Luxembourg Bar and render no opinion on the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of Luxembourg and only under the laws of Luxembourg as they are currently in effect. The statements of this Opinion are valid under Luxembourg laws at the date of this Opinion, but as such are subject to changes. We assume no obligation to inform the interested parties to revise or supplement this letter should the current laws of Luxembourg be amended or replaced by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise.

4.5. The expressions “valid”, “binding” and “enforceable” used in this letter mean that the obligations and/or agreements are of a type which courts of Luxembourg would consider as such. However, any specific case will be treated with regard to the actual facts and circumstances particular to this case and accordingly we express no opinion on the outcome of any legal dispute that may arise in connection with the Amended Pledge Agreement.

(2) Limitations imposed by general principles of equity upon the availability of equitable remedies or the enforcement of provisions of the Operative Agreements; and the effect of judicial decisions which have held that certain provisions are unenforceable where their enforcement would violate the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, or would be commercially unreasonable.
(3) The effect of statutes or judicial decisions rendering ineffective or limiting certain waivers or provisions contained in the Operative Agreements. However, in our opinion, subject to all other limitations set forth in this opinion, such statutes and decisions do not invalidate the Operative Agreements in their entirety, and will not prevent the Other Parties from enforcing FTCS's obligation to pay any accrued Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent and (a) provided the transaction is characterized by a court of competent jurisdiction as a lease to FTCS, and subject to the limitations expressed elsewhere in this opinion letter, such unenforceability will not preclude (i) an action for damages in accordance with applicable California law and (ii) the termination of the Lease upon a material breach by FTCS of a material covenant contained in the FTCS Documents; (b) provided the transaction is characterized by a court of competent jurisdiction as a loan to FTCS, and subject to the limitations expressed elsewhere in this opinion, such unenforceability will not preclude acceleration of the maturity of FTCS's obligation to pay the Termination Value, the Maximum Residual Guarantee Amount or the Maximum Amount pursuant to the FTCS Documents upon a material breach by FTCS of a material covenant contained in the FTCS Documents or, except as provided in Section 2924c of the California Civil Code, from exercising its remedy of foreclosure against any right, title and interest of FTCS in and to the Property described in the FTCS Deed of Trust following such acceleration, provided the rules and ...
