Clarifications and Interpretations Clause Samples

The Clarifications and Interpretations clause defines how ambiguities or uncertainties in the contract's language are to be resolved. Typically, this clause outlines the process for seeking clarification, such as referring questions to a designated party or using established rules of interpretation, and may specify that certain terms take precedence over others in case of conflict. Its core practical function is to ensure that both parties have a clear and agreed-upon method for addressing unclear provisions, thereby reducing the risk of disputes arising from misunderstandings or differing interpretations.
