Notes to answerer
Asker: RE: "typo for "exutoire". That may very well be the case as this is an OCR'd document and certainly fits the context. Thanks!


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Germaine: with "outlet" - et en français, c'est effectivement "exutoire" (pas "exécutoire")
43 mins
agree  Tony M: Not so much an OCR error, but a spell-checker "correction" — 'exécutoire' being a common word and 'exutoire' a rarer, more technical one the dictionary probably hadn't heard of.
