When the basis falls away

Störung der Geschäftsgrundlage. Section 313 BGB allows a contract to be adjusted where the circumstances that formed its basis have changed so severely that holding a party to it would be unreasonable. The remedy is adjustment rather than release. The law’s instinct is to restore the balance rather than to end the relationship.
