　　1.前言 Preamble

　　一份標(biāo)準(zhǔn)英文合同通常可以分為前言（Preamble）、正文（Operative part）、附錄（Schedule）及證明部分即結(jié)束詞（Attestation）四大部分組成。

　　前言（Preamble）由“Parties”及“Recitals”兩部分組成。

　　“Parties”為必備條款，在很多時(shí)候稱為“commencement”即合同的開(kāi)場(chǎng)白，主要介紹合同各方的名稱或姓名、注冊(cè)地及地址、郵編及在合同中的簡(jiǎn)稱。當(dāng)然，并不是所有的合同都要詳細(xì)介紹以上諸要素，在許多簡(jiǎn)單合同中，只是提一下各方的名稱。

　　I. 以下為“Parties”的常用表達(dá)方式：

　　1. This Agreement is entered into by and between ____ and ____.

　　本協(xié)議由以下雙方____和___ 簽署。

　　注：在很多合同中，這部分加入簽約事由，如：

　　This Agreement is entered into through friendly negotiations between _____ Co.

　　(hereinafter referred to as the “Party A”) and _____ Co. (hereinafter referred to as the “Party B”) based on equality and mutual benefit to develop business on the terms and conditions set forth below:

　　This Agreement is entered into between _____ (hereinafter referred to as "Company"), and ______, (hereinafter referred to as "Employee") pursuant to paragraph VIII(2) of the Employee Handbook, whereby it is agreed as follows:

　　本“協(xié)議”由_____（以下簡(jiǎn)稱“公司”）與_____（以下簡(jiǎn)稱“雇員”）根據(jù)“雇員手冊(cè)”第VIII(2)款簽署，“協(xié)議”內(nèi)容如下：

　　II. 以下為標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的“Parties”條款：

　　3. This Agreement is made and entered into this _____th day of _____ in the year of ____ by and between ______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of ______, with its principal place of business at _____ (hereinafter referred to as “_____”), and ______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of _____, with its principal place of business at _____ (hereinafter referred to as “_____”), whereby it is agreed as follows:

　　4. This Agreement is made and entered into this _____ day of _____ in the year of ____ by and between _______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of ______, with its principal place of business at ______ (hereinafter referred to as “_____”), and ______, a company duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of ______, with its principal place of business at ______ (hereinafter referred

　　This ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of May 19, 1997 by and among AAA, a Delaware corporation ("AAA"), BBB, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of AAA ("Buyer"), CCC ("Summit"), and DDD, an Oregon corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Summit ("Seller").

　　4. 不可抗力 Force Majeure

　　Force Majeure條款是一種免責(zé)條款，即免除由于不可抗力事件而違約的一方的違約責(zé)任。一般應(yīng)規(guī)定的內(nèi)容包括：不可抗力事件的定義（Definition of Force Majeure）以及不可抗力事件的后果（Consequences of Force Majeure） 。在Force Majeure條款中，兩者屬于因果關(guān)系，難以截然分開(kāi)。

　　I. 對(duì)于Force Majeure的定義，《合同法》定義如下：

　　本法所稱不可抗力，是指不能預(yù)見(jiàn)、不能避免并不能克服的客觀情況。

　　For purposes of this Law, force majeure means any objective circumstance, which is unforeseeable, unavoidable and insurmountable.

　　II. 以下是Force Majeure條款的舉例：

　　1. Neither party shall be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts or facts reasonably beyond the control of that party.

　　任何一方不應(yīng)對(duì)因其無(wú)法控制之行為或事實(shí)造成協(xié)議延遲履行或不履行承擔(dān)任何責(zé)任。

　　2. Either Party shall not be liable for any delay caused by any unpredictable factor or any factor which is unavoidable or insurmountable by reasonable means at the time of conclusion of this Agreement, or any loss caused by failure in fulfillment of obligations as stipulated herein.

　　協(xié)議任一方無(wú)須對(duì)因任何在本協(xié)議簽訂時(shí)無(wú)法預(yù)見(jiàn)或以合理手段也無(wú)法避免或克服之原因造成的遲延或不履行本協(xié)議之義務(wù)所造成的損失承擔(dān)責(zé)任。

　　注：以上采用的是類似《合同法》概括的定義方法。而合同為不可抗力定義時(shí)更多地采用列舉的方法。

　　3. Neither party of this Agreement, directly or indirectly owing to any causes or circumstances beyond its control, including Acts of God, Governmental orders or restriction, war, warlike conditions, revolutions, strike, lockout, fire and flood.

　　本合同任何一方當(dāng)事人對(duì)直接或間接地由于其無(wú)法控制的原因或情況包括自然災(zāi)害、政府命令或限制、戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)、戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)狀態(tài)、革命、罷工、工廠被關(guān)閉、火災(zāi)、水災(zāi)等而未能履行或延遲履行合同或合同一部分的行為，不負(fù)任何責(zé)任。

　　注: Acts of God通常也譯為“不可抗力”，但主要是指自然災(zāi)害；而Force Majeure則包括自然及人為兩方面。

　　4. Neither party will be liable for nondelivery, misdelivery or late delivery (other than the payment of money due hereunder) caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, among others, war, civil strife or commotion, riots, strikes, fires, floods, acts of God, inability to obtain materials, failure of carriers or compliance with any law, regulation or governmental order.

　　任何當(dāng)事人將不會(huì)為任何因?yàn)椴豢煽刂频那闆r產(chǎn)生的未交付貨物、交付錯(cuò)誤或延遲交貨（除了支付應(yīng)付款）。不可控制的情況包括戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)、國(guó)內(nèi)斗爭(zhēng)或*亂、騷亂、罷工、火災(zāi)、洪災(zāi)、自然災(zāi)害、無(wú)力獲得材料、承運(yùn)人的失誤、遵守法律、法規(guī)或政府令。

　　5. Should either of the parties to the contract by prevented from executing the contract by force majeure, such as earthquake, typhoon, flood, fire and war and other unforeseen events, and their happening and consequences are unpreventable and unavoidable, the prevented party shall notify the other party by cable without any delay, and within 15 days thereafter provide the detailed information of the events and a valid document for evidence issued by the relevant public notary organization

　　for explaining the reason of its inability to execute or delay the execution of all or part of the contract. Both parties shall, through consolations, decide whether to terminate the contract or to exempt the part of obligations for implementation of the contract or whether to delay the execution of the contract according to the effects of the events on the performance of the contract.

　　由 于地震、臺(tái)風(fēng)、水災(zāi)、火災(zāi)、戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)以及其它不能預(yù)見(jiàn)并且對(duì)其發(fā)生和后果不能防止或避免的不可抗力事件出現(xiàn)，致使直接影響合同的履行或者不能按約定的條件履行 時(shí)，遇有上述不可抗力的一方，應(yīng)立即電報(bào)通知對(duì)方，并應(yīng)在十五天內(nèi)，提供不可抗力詳情及合同不能履行、或者部分不履行、或者需要延期履行的理由的有效證明 文件。此項(xiàng)證明文件應(yīng)由事故發(fā)生地有權(quán)證明的機(jī)構(gòu)出具。按其對(duì)履行合同影響的程度，由雙方協(xié)商決定是否解除合同，或者部分履行合同，或者延期履行合同。

　　6. Force majeure shall hereof consist of the following events:

　　下述事件構(gòu)成不可抗力：

　　The related laws and regulations in collection with the execution of duties by any party to this Agreement undergo changes, under which this Agreement will be illegal or the transfer cannot be fulfilled.

　　自本協(xié)議簽訂之日起與本協(xié)議任何一方履行本協(xié)議相關(guān)的法律、法規(guī)發(fā)生變更致使本協(xié)議非法或轉(zhuǎn)讓行為無(wú)法完成。

　　In event of the occurrence of the above-mentioned events, if any party (hereinafter referred to as the “Effected Party ”) has been delayed or deterred from performing the duties of this Agreement in the course of its execution, the Affected Party shall be free from any liabilities for breach of the agreement and for compensation.

　　在發(fā)生本協(xié)議不可抗力事件之后，任何一方（以下簡(jiǎn)稱受影響方）在履行本協(xié)議義務(wù)時(shí)受到拖延或不能履行時(shí)，受影響方不承擔(dān)任何違約責(zé)任及賠償責(zé)任。

　　Should the effect of the force majeure cases last more than _____ days, both parties shall consult each other about the alterations of this Agreement; in case they fail to reach an agreement, Chapter 8 shall thereupon apply.

　　在不可抗力事件延續(xù)_____天后，雙方必須磋商本協(xié)議的變更，雙方未能協(xié)商一致的，適用本協(xié)議第八章的規(guī)定。

　　7. Force Majeure不可抗力

　　(1) No party to this Contract shall be liable to the other party for any failure of or delay in performance of its obligations hereof nor be deemed to be in breach of this Contract, if such failure or delay has arisen from "force majeure."

　　5. 修改 Modification

　　合同修訂 (Modification)條款為合同常用條款.主要規(guī)定了合同修訂的方式與途徑。例如：書面合同，只能以書面方式進(jìn)行修訂，口頭修訂內(nèi)容無(wú)效。

　　I. Modification條款通常較為簡(jiǎn)單，以下為一些常用比較簡(jiǎn)約的表達(dá)方式：

　　1. The contract can be amended only after the amendment is agreed upon by both parties.

　　II. 在實(shí)際運(yùn)用中，由于內(nèi)容環(huán)境不同，表達(dá)可能有所不同，以下為一些實(shí)例：

　　1. If the loan contract affiliated to this Contract has to be abridged, amended, or revised, both parties shall negotiate to amend and revise this Contract in line with the provisions of the loan contract.

　　本股權(quán)質(zhì)押項(xiàng)下的貸款合同如有修改、補(bǔ)充而影響本質(zhì)押合同時(shí)，雙方應(yīng)協(xié)商修改、補(bǔ)充本質(zhì)押合同，使其與股權(quán)質(zhì)押項(xiàng)下貸款合同規(guī)定相一致。

　　6. 補(bǔ)償 Indemnification

　　損害賠償（indemnification）條款，是減少合同風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的一個(gè)重要條款。該條款主要約定在第三者對(duì)合同提出權(quán)利主張時(shí)，另一締約方應(yīng)當(dāng)對(duì)此承擔(dān)責(zé)任。通常情況下，另一締約方必須支付全部的防御性訴訟費(fèi)用，以及全部的支付給第三者的和解費(fèi)用或者第三者勝訴后造成的所有損失。

　　實(shí)際上，本條款是將第三人造成的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)從合同的一方當(dāng)事人轉(zhuǎn)移給另一方當(dāng)事人。

　　其次，本條款也可以約定合同的另一締約方有其他不當(dāng)?shù)淖鳛闀r(shí)，應(yīng)當(dāng)進(jìn)行損害賠償。

　　I． Indemnification 條款常用“indemnify and hold harmless from……”來(lái)表達(dá)：

In no event will either party be liable to the other in connection with this agreement for special, incidental, indirect or consequential or punitive damages regardless of whether either or both parties knew of the possibility of such damages.

　　一方當(dāng)事人將使另一方當(dāng)事人免于承擔(dān)訴訟、索賠、請(qǐng)求、損害賠償金及費(fèi)用，包括為以下訴訟辯護(hù)而發(fā)生的合理的律師費(fèi)：因另一方當(dāng)事人未根據(jù)本協(xié)議履行其義務(wù)而導(dǎo)致?lián)p害賠償?shù)脑V訟。

　　不管一方當(dāng)事人或雙方當(dāng)事人是否知道特殊損害賠償、附帶損害賠償、間接損害賠償、后果性損害賠償、懲罰性損害賠償發(fā)生的可能性，一方當(dāng)事人均不會(huì)為另一方當(dāng)事人承擔(dān)上述損害賠償。

　　1. Notwithstanding any of indemnities and liabilities specifically referred to above, neither company or contractor shall be liable to the other with respect to any consequential loss including, but not limited to, loss of anticipated profit, loss of anticipated revenue, loss of anticipated production, loss of product, or loss of use of money, arising or alleged to arise out of either company’s or contractor’s failure to property carry out its obligations hereunder or due to omissions or negligence, in whole or any part, of the part at fault, its subcontractors or vendors or the un-seaworthiness of vessel, or strict liability, and regardless of whether pre-existing the execution of the agreement.

　　依據(jù)法律或衡平法，本“協(xié)議”所述的賠償或其它可得的賠償應(yīng)當(dāng)是累積的，并在本“協(xié)議”中規(guī)定的賠償之外，或在現(xiàn)在或此后可得的賠償之外。無(wú)論對(duì)方當(dāng)事人通知與否，任何與違反協(xié)議或不履行協(xié)議有關(guān)的棄權(quán)不得視為與任何后來(lái)的違反協(xié)議或不履行協(xié)議有關(guān)的棄權(quán)，無(wú)論是否性質(zhì)相同或不同。
