Singular Sample Clauses
The 'Singular' clause defines how singular terms in a contract should be interpreted. Typically, it clarifies that words in the singular form also include their plural counterparts, and vice versa, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. This ensures that references to a party, item, or obligation are not limited by grammatical number. The core function of this clause is to prevent ambiguity and disputes over whether contractual provisions apply to one or multiple entities or items, thereby ensuring clarity and consistency throughout the agreement.
