Interpretation and Other Matters Sample Clauses

The 'Interpretation and Other Matters' clause defines how the terms and provisions of the contract should be understood and applied. It typically clarifies the meaning of specific words or phrases, addresses how headings, plural or singular forms, and gendered terms are to be interpreted, and may specify that certain standard rules of contract interpretation apply. This clause ensures consistency and reduces ambiguity in the contract, helping to prevent misunderstandings or disputes over the meaning of its terms.
