a. Article 46 of the Convention gives the buyer the right to specific performance unless the buyer resorts to a remedy that is inconsistent with it. As is evident throughout the provisions of the CISG, the rights of the buyer and the seller are balanced in the Convention, and the seller is also entitled to demand specific performance as stated in CISG Article 62. Resorting to the remedy of specific performance does not deprive the buyer of his right to claim damages, as stated in CISG Article 45(2). Another aspect of this balance between the rights of the buyer and the seller is that according to CISG Article 48(1) the seller may, even after the date for delivery, remedy at his own expense any failure to perform his obligations, if he can do so without unreasonable inconvenience or uncertainty of reimbursement by the seller of expenses advanced by the buyer. If the seller makes use of this right, the buyer need not make use of his right to require performance under CISG Article 46. In fact, if the seller requests an opportunity to remedy in accordance with CISG Article 48(1) and the buyer does not comply with the request within a reasonable time, the seller may remedy within the time indicated in his request and the buyer may not resort to any remedy that is inconsistent with performance by the seller during that time (see CISG Art. 48(2)).
