Common use of Drafting Presumption Clause in Contracts

Drafting Presumption. It is acknowledged that the parties and their respective agents have participated in an arms'-length negotiation in the preparation of this Agreement. As a consequence, the parties agree that no presumption shall be applied in any interpretation of this Agreement that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed against one party by reason of any rule or construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the party who prepared the same, whether through such party's agents or otherwise and the parties expressly waive the application of Section 1654 of the California Civil Code.
