Article L3411-7 of the French Public procurement code

When the concessionaire is unable to meet the deadline for the performance of one or more obligations under the contract, or when such timely performance would require resources whose mobilisation would place a manifestly excessive burden on the concessionaire, the deadline is extended by a period equivalent to the period of non-compliance with the performance deadline as a direct result of the exceptional circumstances, at the request of the holder submitted before the expiry of the contractual deadline and before the expiry of the period of exceptional circumstances.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L3411-7

Lorsque le concessionnaire ne peut pas respecter le délai d’exécution d’une ou de plusieurs obligations du contrat ou que cette exécution en temps et en heure nécessiterait des moyens dont la mobilisation ferait peser sur le concessionnaire une charge manifestement excessive, ce délai est prolongé d’une durée équivalente à la période de non-respect du délai d’exécution résultant directement des circonstances exceptionnelles, sur la demande du titulaire présentée avant l’expiration du délai contractuel et avant l’expiration de la période de circonstances exceptionnelles.
