Sec. 42a-2A-601. Right to adequate assurance of performance.

      Sec. 42a-2A-601. Right to adequate assurance of performance. (a) A lease contract imposes an obligation on each party not to impair the other's expectation of receiving due performance. If reasonable grounds for insecurity arise with respect to the performance of either party, the other party may demand in a record adequate assurance of due performance and, until that assurance is received, if commercially reasonable, may suspend any performance for which the agreed return has not already been received.

      (b) Between merchants, the reasonableness of grounds for insecurity and the adequacy of any assurance offered is determined according to commercial standards.

      (c) Acceptance of improper delivery or payment does not prejudice an aggrieved party's right to demand adequate assurance of future performance.

      (d) After receipt of a demand under subsection (a) of this section, failure to provide within a reasonable time, not exceeding thirty days, assurance of due performance which is adequate under the circumstances of the particular case is a repudiation of the contract under section 42a-2A-602.
