No Deference Clause Samples

The "No Deference" clause establishes that, in the event of a dispute over the interpretation of the contract, no special weight or preference will be given to the interpretation of the party that drafted the agreement. In practice, this means that if ambiguity arises, a court or arbitrator will not automatically interpret unclear terms against the drafter, which is a common legal principle known as contra proferentem. The core function of this clause is to ensure that both parties are treated equally in the interpretation process, thereby reducing the risk that one party is unfairly disadvantaged simply because they prepared the contract language.
No Deference. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no determination pursuant to, or interpretation of, this Agreement made by the board of directors (or any committee thereof) of the Company or any Successor Corporation following a Change of Control or Imminent Change Date shall be entitled to any presumptive validity or other deference in connection with any judicial or administrative proceeding relating to or arising under this Agreement.
