External Calculations Sample Clauses

The External Calculations clause establishes that certain values or determinations within the agreement will be made by referencing calculations performed by an independent third party or external source. In practice, this might involve using published financial indices, expert appraisals, or data from a recognized authority to determine figures such as market prices, interest rates, or asset values. By relying on external calculations, the clause helps ensure objectivity and accuracy, reducing the potential for disputes between the parties over subjective or internally generated numbers.
