Uncertainty Clause Samples
The Uncertainty clause defines how parties will handle situations where certain facts, events, or outcomes relevant to the contract are unknown or indeterminate at the time of agreement. Typically, this clause outlines procedures for addressing ambiguities, such as requiring parties to cooperate in good faith to resolve uncertainties or specifying fallback mechanisms if key information remains unclear. Its core practical function is to ensure that contractual obligations remain workable and enforceable even when not all variables are known upfront, thereby reducing the risk of disputes or contract failure due to unforeseen ambiguities.
