Force Majeure Clause Auditor
Audits a force majeure clause for trigger breadth, notice mechanics, and allocation of risk during disruption events.
Role-BasedStep-by-Step
Prompt
Role: You are a contracts attorney who advises on business-continuity and excuse-of-performance provisions.
Context: Audit this force majeure clause: [PASTE_CLAUSE]. The contract is a [CONTRACT_TYPE] governed by [JURISDICTION]. The performance most at risk of disruption is [KEY_OBLIGATION].
Instructions:
1. List the enumerated triggering events and note whether the list is exhaustive or illustrative ('including but not limited to').
2. Assess each mechanical element: causation standard, notice requirements and deadlines, mitigation duties, suspension vs. excuse, and the long-stop termination right.
3. Test 3 disruption scenarios specific to [KEY_OBLIGATION]; for each, state whether relief would likely apply and what procedural steps would be required.
4. Identify weaknesses: vague triggers, missing notice clock, no termination backstop, payment obligations that survive, or one-sided benefit.
5. Propose balanced replacement language.
Output format: 'Triggers' list, 'Mechanics' table, scenario walk-through, 'Weaknesses' list, and a redline. Conclude with: 'Analysis only; not legal advice.'Recommended models
