ex gratia
"Ex gratia" is a Latin term which literally means "out of goodwill or favor." It is often used in a legal context to refer to something done voluntarily, out of kindness or grace, rather than because of a legal obligation or liability. For instance, a payment made ex gratia is made not because it is required under a contract or a duty, but because it is a voluntary gesture of goodwill.
