Sole Exception Sample Clauses

The "Sole Exception" clause defines a specific, exclusive circumstance under which an otherwise absolute rule or obligation does not apply. In practice, this means that if a contract prohibits certain actions or imposes strict requirements, the sole exception clause will identify the only situation where deviation is permitted—such as allowing disclosure of confidential information only when required by law. This clause ensures clarity by strictly limiting exceptions, thereby preventing ambiguity and reducing the risk of disputes over whether additional exceptions might exist.
