CONDITIONSPERCEDENT.ThisAgreementissubjectto[specify,e.g.,theissuanceofanimportlicensetotheBuyerbytheappropriateagencyof(country)governmentandtheissuanceofanexportlicensetotheSellerbytheappropriateagencyof(country)government]. 先决条件。此协议服从于[如:相关（国家）政府给买方颁发进口许可证和相关（国家）政府给卖方颁发出口许可证].

解释:先决条件（precondition）普遍采取于英文协议版本当中,中国日常协议当中采取不多。这可能是源于中国协议法并无明确要求先决条件条款,而是采取同时推行抗辩权、不安抗辩权和先推行抗辩权“三国鼎立”,所以实践当中制订先决条件条款并不多见。

其实,先决条件法律性质含义较广、较灵活,依据它设计内容不一样,既能够单指同时推行抗辩权、不安抗辩权和先推行抗辩权三种权利其中之一,也可能包含了二者或全部。因为先决条件是指仅当特定条件成就后,协议一方才推行特定行为如交割、付款等。这个条款通常见作保护处于优势地位一方明确己方权利和对方义务关系时候使用。具体作用有二:

一是标准,约定明确判定标准,作为一方负担义务和另一方行使权利依据;

二是保护,即保护一方当事人尤其是优势方当事人协议利益,免受另一方拒不推行或拖延推行而带来损害。
