unforfeited
Not yet lost
Unforfeited describes something that has not been lost through breach, neglect, or failure to meet conditions.
Rights, property, or privileges remain unforfeited when their holder continues to satisfy whatever obligations preserve them: His good behavior kept the bail unforfeited.
The word appears mainly in legal and formal contexts.
