Where a party fails to perform one of his obligations, that may be called actual breach; where he evinces an intention not to perform, that may be called anticipatory breach. Actual breach may take one of three forms. Non-performance is one form of breach. Suppose A, a shipowner, charters his ship to B, undertaking to have the ship at Liverpool for loading by a certain date. If A (perhaps because he has received a more profitable offer from C in Southampton) never takes his ship to Liverpool, that is a breach of contract by non-performance. Another form of actual breach is defective performance. If A attempts to get his ship to Liverpool, but arrives late, that is a breach of contract by defective performance. A third form of actual breach is the non-truth of a statement which is a term of the contract. If it is written into the contract that the ship is suitable for carrying motor-cars, and in fact it is not, that is a breach of contract.  2, record 1, English, - actual%20breach
