Payment after Earning Clause Samples
The 'Payment after Earning' clause establishes that payments will only be made once the relevant earnings or revenues have been received or realized. In practice, this means that a party is not obligated to pay another party until they themselves have actually earned the funds, such as a distributor paying a supplier only after collecting payment from end customers. This clause helps manage cash flow and reduces financial risk by ensuring that payments are only required when the payer has the necessary resources, thereby protecting parties from having to advance funds before they are available.
