§ 1310.44.
Subject to the provisions of section 1310.43 of the Revised Code pertaining to substituted performance, the following rules apply: (A) A delay in delivery or nondelivery in whole or in part by a lessor or a supplier
who complies with divisions (B) and (C) of this section is not a default under the
lease contract if performance as agreed has been made impracticable by the occurrence
of a contingency, the nonoccurrence of which was a basic assumption on which the lease
contract was made or by compliance in good faith with any applicable foreign or domestic
governmental regulation or order, whether or not the regulation or order later proves
to be invalid. (B) If the causes mentioned in division (A) of this section affect only part of the lessor's
or the supplier's capacity to perform, he shall allocate production and deliveries
among his customers but at his option may include regular customers not then under
contract for sale or lease as well as his own requirements for further manufacture. He may so allocate in any manner that is fair and reasonable. (C) The lessor seasonably shall notify the lessee, and, in the case of a finance lease,
the supplier seasonably shall notify the lessor and the lessee, if known, that there
will be delay or nondelivery and, if allocation is required under division (B) of
this section, of the estimated quota thus made available for the lessee.
