PREFERENCE ORDER Clause Samples

The Preference Order clause establishes a hierarchy or sequence in which certain rights, obligations, or actions are to be prioritized under the agreement. In practice, this clause may specify which party’s preferences take precedence in situations such as the allocation of resources, fulfillment of orders, or resolution of conflicting instructions. By clearly defining the order of preference, the clause helps prevent disputes and ensures that all parties understand how competing interests will be managed, thereby promoting fairness and operational efficiency.
