When may the Owner terminate the Contract without cause?

The Owner is typically granted the right to terminate the contract for convenience, meaning they can do so without needing to provide a specific reason related to the Contractor's performance. This provision allows the Owner flexibility in managing their project, whether due to changing priorities, funding issues, or other organizational needs.

In many standard construction contracts, such as those based on AIA or similar industry standards, this right is explicitly stated. It protects the Owner's interests and enables them to control the progression of the project according to their evolving requirements.

Other options suggest conditions or limitations on this right, which do not align with the standard contractual practice that allows for termination for convenience.
