Have You Registered for the Corporate Counsel Section’s Annual Meeting and CLE?

Is a pandemic classified as a “natural disaster” in your company’s force majeure clause? In your next contract negotiation, what’s your legal strategy to mitigate risk associated with ever-increasing global outbreaks?

If a force majeure is declared by your supplier, is your company prepared to handle any resulting reputational risk, increased costs or any unforeseeable ramifications due to the force majeure declaration? And what if your agreement has to be terminated due to a force majeure declaration? Did you negotiate appropriate termination assistance from the supplier in order to pivot to your alternate supplier? Overall, is your service agreement sufficient to address these contract risks and their potential consequences and liabilities?
