Prior to the Contract Sample Clauses

The "Prior to the Contract" clause defines the rights, obligations, or understandings that exist between the parties before the formal contract is signed. This clause typically clarifies whether any discussions, negotiations, or preliminary agreements made before the contract are binding or have any legal effect. For example, it may state that only the final written contract governs the relationship, disregarding prior communications. Its core function is to prevent misunderstandings or disputes about pre-contractual statements or promises by establishing that only the executed contract sets the terms of the agreement.
Prior to the Contract the Supplier shall produce up-to-date insurance certificates, issued by its insurance company, indicating the reference number and the effective date of the insurance policy, the cover provided, the amounts and deductibles, sub-limits, activities, nature of the work or assignments covered. The Supplier shall also provide the evidence that it is up to date with payment of the premiums.
