Extinguishment. The term has, in the law, no fixed, uniform and universal meaning, but varies with the subject matter to which it is applied; but usually it connotes the end of a thing, precluding the existence of future life therein, and has been defined generally as meaning a complete wiping out, destruction, or annihilation, and not a mere suspension; the destruction or cancellation of a right, power, contract, or estate; a discharge by operation of law; a termination; and, more specifically, as the annihilation or extinction of a right by its being consolidated with a greater or more extensive right; the extinction of a charge or equity by its passing into the hands of the owner of the lands charged; and it has been sometimes used in the sense of payment.("Corpus Juris Secundum", Vol. 35, p. 352) 1, record 1, English, - extinguishment

(extinguishment; extinction:) Both words are nouns corresponding to the verb "to extinguish". If there is differentiation, it is that extinguishment refers to the process, and extinction to the resultant state. Extinguishment means in law "the cessation or cancellation of some right or interest". (Garner, 1987, p. 235) 1, record 1, English, - extinguishment

A washout is not a cancellation of a contract. It is when one party seeks to terminate the contract before its expiry and pays out the difference between the original contract price and the market price at the time of the washout. It is not a default; it is an agreement between the two parties not to take a contract through to full execution, and to negotiate a payment to compensate the other party for any costs for early termination of the contract. Either the buyer or seller can seek a washout-if no agreement is reached on the washout price, the contract stands. 3, record 2, English, - contract%20wash%20out
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Wash outs are common to all commodity trading. Common reasons for wash outs are a seller’s inability to cover, to supply the goods under contract for reasons which cannot be considered "force majeure". 2, record 2, English, - contract%20wash%20out

Cancellations of bookings and packaged trips can be made. Unconfirmed and unpaid bookings are simply deleted. Where some payment has already been made to the provider, the refund is determined. If a refund applies, then the booking clerk advises the provider of the cancellation and forwards a cancellation advice. This, together with any travel agency commission, is returned to the consumer. Each cancellation is for booking only, or one packaged trip only. 1, record 4, English, - booking%20clerk
