Defense of non-performance Sample Clauses

Defense of non-performanceUnder article 1219 of the Civil Code, each Party can refuse perform their contractual obligation, although such obligation is enforceable, if the other Party has not performed theirs, and if such non-performance is severe enough, that is, likely to question the NEULA’s continuation or fundamentally disrupts its economic balance. The performance suspension shall take effect immediately upon reception by the breaching Party of the notice, sent by registered mail, acknowledgement due, stating the breaches and the innocent Party’s intention to seek application of the defense of non-performance as long as the breach is not cured by the breaching party.
Defense of non-performance. Under Belgian law a debtor may in certain circumstances in case of default of its creditor invoke the defense of non-performance, pursuant to which it would be entitled to suspend payment under its obligations until its counterparty has duly discharged its obligations due and payable to the debtor. The exception of non-performance is subject to various conditions, the most important ones being: (a) the debt in respect of which payment is suspended must be due and must be conditional upon payment of a debt owed by the other party; (b) the other party must have defaulted on its debt, in a material way; (c) the amount/value involved in the suspension must be in proportion to the amount/value of the default; (d) finally, there must be a close interrelationship between the two debts, typically such close interrelationship is accepted to exist where both debts arise under the same contract or otherwise are so closely interrelated that they are a part of a single transaction (as to the possible existence of closely interrelated debts, see Set-off upon or following insolvency of the Seller above). If all such conditions are met, the defense of non-performance may be invoked by a Borrower in respect of an SME Receivable. However, pursuant to the Mobilisation Act, the assigned debtor cannot invoke the defence of non- performance (a) following notification of the assignment of the SME Receivable (and/or the Loan Security) to the assigned debtors (or acknowledgement thereof by the assigned debtor), to the extent the conditions for defence of non-performance are only satisfied after such notification (or acknowledgment); and (b) regardless of any notification or acknowledgement of the assignment, following the start of insolvency proceedings or the occurrence of a situation of concurrence of creditors (samenloop/concours) in relation to the Seller, to the extent the conditions for defense of non-performance are only satisfied following or as a result of such insolvency proceedings or concurrence of creditors.
