“On demand” in a legal context typically refers to a situation where a particular action or obligation is required to be performed immediately or as soon as requested by one party to the agreement. It implies that the performance of the action or fulfilment of the obligation is not subject to any specific conditions or delays and must be executed promptly upon request. This term is commonly used in contracts and agreements to specify the timing and nature of certain obligations, such as the payment of money or the delivery of goods or services. When a demand is made, the party obligated to act must do so without delay, failing which they may be considered in breach of the agreement.
