Interpretive Provisions Clause Samples
The Interpretive Provisions clause defines how terms, phrases, and references within the contract should be understood and applied. It typically clarifies the meaning of specific words, addresses how plural and singular forms are treated, and may specify how references to laws or documents should be interpreted. By establishing these interpretive rules, the clause ensures consistency and reduces ambiguity throughout the contract, helping to prevent misunderstandings and disputes over language.
