ARTICLE 11 – Specific performance

ARTICLE 12 – Proportional reduction of the price in case of imperfect performance of the obligation
In the event of a Party failing to fulfil one or other of its obligations, the creditor may, in application of Article 1223 of the Civil Code, 14 days after the debtor of the obligation has received a formal notice served by registered letter with a request for acknowledgement of receipt, to perform, which has remained without effect, if he has not yet paid for all or part of the service, notify the debtor as soon as possible of his decision to accept an imperfect performance of the contract and to reduce the price proportionally.

ARTICLE 13 – Exception of non-performance
It is recalled that, pursuant to Article 1219 of the Civil Code, each Party may refuse to perform its obligation, even though it is due, if the other Party does not perform its own and if this non-performance is sufficiently serious, i.e. likely to jeopardise the continuation of the contract or fundamentally upset its economic balance. The suspension of performance shall take effect immediately upon receipt by the defaulting Party of the notice of default sent to it to this effect by the Party suffering the default, indicating the intention to apply the exception of non-performance for as long as the defaulting Party has not remedied the default observed, served by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or on any other durable written medium allowing proof of dispatch. This exception of non-performance may also be used as a preventive measure, in accordance with the provisions of Article 1220 of the Civil Code, if it is clear that one of the Parties will not perform its obligations on the due date and that the consequences of this non-performance are sufficiently serious for the Party that has been the victim of the default. This option shall be used at the risk of the Party taking the initiative. The suspension of performance shall take effect immediately upon receipt by the Party presumed to be in default of the notification of the intention to apply the exception of preventive non-performance until the Party presumed to be in default performs the obligation for which a future breach is manifest, served by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or on any other durable written medium allowing proof of sending.
ARTICLE 14 – Force majeure
The Parties shall not be held liable if the non-performance or delay in the performance of any of their obligations, as described herein, results from a case of force majeure, within the meaning of Article 1218 of the Civil Code. It is expressly agreed that a case of force majeure is any irresistible fact or circumstance, external to the parties, unforeseeable, unavoidable, independent of the will of the parties and which cannot be prevented by the latter, despite all reasonably possible efforts. The Party noting the event shall without delay inform the other Party of its inability to perform its service and justify this to the latter. The suspension of obligations shall in no case be a cause of liability for non-performance of the obligation in question, nor shall it lead to the payment of damages or penalties for delay. The performance of the obligation is suspended for the duration of the force majeure if it is temporary and does not exceed 30 days. Consequently, as soon as the cause of the suspension of their mutual obligations disappears, the Parties shall make every effort to resume normal performance of their contractual obligations as soon as possible. To this end, the Party prevented shall notify the other of the resumption of its obligation by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or any extrajudicial act. If the impediment is definitive or exceeds a period of 60 days, the present contract shall be purely and simply terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions defined in the article “Termination due to force majeure”. During this suspension, the Parties agree that the costs generated by the situation shall be borne by the prevented Party.
ARTICLE 15 – Termination of the contract
15-1 – Termination due to force majeure Termination by operation of law due to force majeure may only take place, notwithstanding the clause Termination due to failure by a party to fulfil its obligations set out below, 30 days after receipt of a formal notice sent by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt or any extrajudicial act. However, this notice of default must mention the intention to apply the present clause. 15-2 – Provisions common to cases of termination It is expressly agreed between the Parties that the debtor of an obligation to pay under the terms of this agreement shall be validly put in default by the mere fact that the obligation is due, in accordance with the provisions of article 1344 of the Civil Code.
