Existing Discussions Sample Clauses
The "Existing Discussions" clause defines how prior communications or negotiations between the parties are treated in relation to the current agreement. Typically, this clause clarifies that any discussions, proposals, or understandings that occurred before the execution of the contract are not legally binding unless they are expressly included in the final written agreement. By doing so, it ensures that only the terms documented in the contract govern the relationship, thereby preventing misunderstandings or disputes over informal or preliminary conversations.
