Discharge by frustration?

A contract may be discharged by frustration. A contract may be frustrated where there exists a change in circumstances, after the contract was made, which is not the fault of either of the parties, which renders the contract either impossible to perform or deprives the contract of its commercial purpose. Where a contract is found to be frustrated, each party is discharged from future obligations under the contract and neither party may sue for breach. The allocation of loss is decided by the Law Reform (Frustrated Contracts) Act 1943.

What is Contract discharge?

When a party to a contract is "discharged", the obligations and duties of that party have been fulfilled, waived, excused, or released. The party may be discharged by "full and exact performance" of his or her obligations, or may plead (in litigation) that discharge resulted from the breach of material terms by the opposing party, or failure of consideration, or other condition, excusing further performance. Note that the OTHER party may not be equally discharged and may continue to be bound by the terms, perhaps in proportion to the value of consideration received.By comparison, all further obligations and legal relationship of all parties under a contract can also be "terminated or canceled" by mutual consent, whether or not any party has fully "discharged" its obligations, or may (under limited conditions) be rescinded or modified in equity.
