Commercially Reasonable Efforts Clause Samples
The "Commercially Reasonable Efforts" clause requires a party to take actions that a reasonable business would undertake under similar circumstances to fulfill its contractual obligations. In practice, this means the party must make diligent attempts to achieve a specified result, but is not expected to go to extraordinary lengths or incur unreasonable costs. This clause helps set a balanced standard of performance, ensuring that parties act in good faith without being held to an absolute or overly burdensome requirement.
