Summary
GENERAL INTERPRETATION AND APPLICATION IN THE CISG AND THE PECL
The content and function of Article 7:101(2) and (3) PECL are similar in substance and form to the counterpart provision contained in Article 10 CISG. Both provisions exemplify the drafters' intent to adopt the “closest connection” principle in contract interpretation and supplementation when determining the relevant “place of business” of a party absent an express provision.
The PECL Notes to Article 7:101(2) and (3) confirm that the basic elements are based on Article 10 CISG. However, although the provisions apply the same theory, its application is limited in scope under 7:101(2) PECL as compared to Article 10 CISG.
“PLACE OF BUSINESS” IN THE INTERPRETATION OF THE CONTRACT
Subsection (1) of 7:101 PECL prescribes the place of performance in the event where the location for performance of the contract “is not fixed or determinable from the contract.” The PECL expressly addresses the situation where a creditor or debtor has two places of business or does not have a place of business. As such, the concept of place of business as set forth in Subsections (2) and (3) operates as a supplementation for determining the location for the performance of a contract, as well as an interpretive guide for defining the location of performance. Thus, the scope of the principle as adapted by the PECL is used to determine the performance of a contract.
