Article 1307-1 of the French Civil Code

The choice between the performances belongs to the debtor.

If the choice is not exercised within the agreed time or within a reasonable period, the other party may, after formal notice, exercise that choice or rescind the contract.

The choice exercised is definitive and causes the obligation to lose its alternative character.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 1307-1

Le choix entre les prestations appartient au débiteur.

Si le choix n’est pas exercé dans le temps convenu ou dans un délai raisonnable, l’autre partie peut, après mise en demeure, exercer ce choix ou résoudre le contrat.

Le choix exercé est définitif et fait perdre à l’obligation son caractère alternatif.
