With reference to Article Clause Samples
The "With reference to Article" clause serves to explicitly connect a particular provision or statement within a contract to a specific article or section of the same agreement. In practice, this clause is used to clarify that the rights, obligations, or procedures being discussed are governed by or should be interpreted in light of the referenced article. For example, it may be used to ensure that a party's actions are consistent with the requirements set out in a particular section, or to avoid ambiguity about which rules apply in a given situation. Its core function is to enhance clarity and prevent misunderstandings by directly linking related contractual provisions.
