Principles of Interpretation and Construction Sample Clauses

The "Principles of Interpretation and Construction" clause defines the rules and guidelines for how the terms and provisions of a contract should be read and understood. It typically clarifies how ambiguities are resolved, how headings and defined terms are to be treated, and whether certain words (like singular/plural or masculine/feminine) should be interpreted broadly. For example, it may state that references to one gender include all genders, or that section headings are for convenience only and do not affect meaning. This clause ensures consistency and reduces disputes over the meaning of contractual language by establishing a common interpretive framework.
