If the thing perishes due to force majeure before its delivery to the employer, the contractor may not claim either the consideration for their work or the reimbursement of their expenses, and the loss of the material shall fall upon the party who supplied it from among the contracting parties. 2. If the thing perishes after the employer has formally summoned the contractor to take delivery thereof, or if the loss is attributable to the contractor's fault, the employer shall have the right to compensation. 3. If the thing perishes after the contractor has served a notice of default upon the employer requiring them to take delivery thereof, or if it is due to the employer's fault, the contractor shall be entitled to the consideration and to compensation, if applicable.
