L4M3 Exam Dumps : Commercial Contracting

Indexation and price adjustment clauses are appropriate when future costs are uncertain or likely to change, such as regulatory-driven wage increases (B) or fluctuating material costs (E). These clauses allow adjustments based on objective indices while preserving the integrity of the contract.

Risk-minimising clauses typically include:

Confidentiality clauses (1) to protect business data.

Variation and price adjustment clauses (4) to allow flexibility for scope or cost changes.Service duration and holidays are administrative and not risk-control terms.

When parties do not negotiate face-to-face, a key QUESTION NO: becomes when things like acceptances, rejections and revocations take effect. The general rule is that acceptances are effective on dispatch (when they are mailed). Everything else becomes effective when the offeror actually receives them. This idea is codified by the “mailbox rule” which states that acceptance is effective on dispatch, even before the offeror has received it. (The one minor exception to this rule involves option contracts for which acceptances are not effective until they are received by the offeror.)
