11. Review and Renegotiation of Contracts

Contracts between Governments and transnational corporations should be negotiated and implemented in good faith. In such contracts, especially long-term ones, review or renegotiation clauses should be normally included.

In the absence of such clauses and where there has been a fundamental change of the circumstances on which the contract or agreement was based, transnational corporations, acting in good faith, shall/should co-operate with Governments for the review or renegotiation of such contract or agreement.

Review or renegotiation of such contracts or agreements shall/should be subject to [the laws of the host country] [relevant national laws and international legal principles].

*See UN Document E/1983/17/Rev.1; EC/10/1983/S/5/Rev.1 Annex II as amended by subsequent negotiations up to January 1986.
