Recorded Interactive Webinar: Drafting Effective Termination and Exit Clauses: Getting Out Clean
Date/Time
About the Webinar
Termination clauses are critical to managing commercial risk—but when poorly drafted, they can lead to disputes, unexpected obligations, or unenforceable exits. This session provides practical guidance on drafting termination and exit provisions that are clear, enforceable, and commercially aligned. Topics include:
- Lessons from the High Court in Shevill v Builders Licensing Board and Gumland v Duffy Bros on:
- the way termination clauses are drafted
- the types of drafting that is and is not effective
- Key parts of the conceptual foundation that a contract-drafter requires to ensure that the implications of a proposed termination clause are understood
- How to ascertain whether the clause will do what the parties intend it to do
- Drafting techniques and practice points that are necessitated by the ipso facto moratorium, the doctrine of good faith and unfair contract terms legislation on termination clauses
