The termination for convenience clause is designed to give the terminated party a more fair and equitable result than if it were terminated for cause since the termination does not result from its wrongful conduct — a breach of the contract.
A termination for convenience clause, or "T for C" clause, enables a party to a contract to bring the contract to an end without the need to establish that the other party is in default, for example because the client party's needs have changed, or in order to arrange for another party to complete the contract.

Mutual Agreement: Both parties may agree to terminate the contract early. This is often the simplest and least contentious method. Termination Clauses: Many contracts include specific clauses that outline the conditions under which the contract may be terminated before its natural conclusion.
The best way to end a contract early is to speak with the party you're in contract with. Simple negotiation is often all it takes to reach a favorable resolution. If they don't agree to ending the contract early, consider getting a lawyer to help you determine your next best step.
The most professional, polite way to notify someone that a contract is ending is to do so in writing. Be direct and narrow in your word choice. Don't explain your reasoning away or give anyone the chance to use your words against you.
