Specifically mentioning the frustrating event in the contract does not disqualify a contract from being frustrated. In fact, if the event was not foreseeable at the time of contracting, it may still be considered a frustrating event. The other requirements listed, including that the event was outside of the control of the parties, it would be unjust to hold the parties to the contract, and the event has significantly changed the obligations of the parties, are all necessary for a contract to be frustrated.
