expiration date

If after the expiration date no party expresses willingness to terminate the agreement, its force will be extended for another one year period.

agree Derek Gill Franßen : Yes, something like this is more likely the type of clause that was meant (IMHO). :-)

After the date of termination, if none of the parties has indicated its willingness to terminate this agreement, this agreement will be effective for another one year period.

Peer comment(s):
neutral Marian Greenfield : my guess is that original says desire rather than willingness, as willingness doesn't make much sense in context... but who knows... when we only see a translation, not the original....

continue

If, after the termination date, the parties indicate their willingness to continue (whatever it was they were doing before one of them terminated), this agreement shall automatically renew for another year (or one year period).

It seems a bit strange to me: wouldn't the termination (hence "after the date of termination") indicate the desire to terminate the agreement? Perhaps this means that, if the parties continue to do business after one of them terminates, the agreement will automatically renew. :-)

You don\'t need \"shall\", \"will\" would also work (IMHO). ;-)

**Nothing wrong with your expression.
**the agreement could be between more than two parties. If between two parties, then please use: neither party, as expressed by another peer.
