Words of Inclusion Clause Samples
The "Words of Inclusion" clause defines how certain terms in a contract should be interpreted to encompass a broader range of items or scenarios than might be immediately apparent. Typically, this clause clarifies that words such as "including" or "such as" are not meant to limit the scope of the provision to the listed examples, but rather to indicate that other, unlisted items may also be covered. By doing so, the clause ensures that the contract remains flexible and comprehensive, preventing parties from arguing that only specifically named items are included and thereby reducing the risk of disputes over interpretation.
