ABOVE RECITALS Clause Samples

The 'Above Recitals' clause serves to formally incorporate the background statements or recitals listed at the beginning of a contract into the operative part of the agreement. In practice, this means that any context, facts, or intentions described in the recitals section are treated as binding and form part of the contractual obligations between the parties. This clause ensures that the recitals are not merely introductory or explanatory, but have legal effect, thereby providing clarity and preventing disputes over the relevance or enforceability of the information contained in the recitals.
