Sole Interest Clause Samples

The Sole Interest clause establishes that a particular right, benefit, or obligation is held exclusively by one party to a contract. In practice, this means that only the designated party can exercise certain rights or claim specific interests, and no other party—including joint parties or third parties—may share in or interfere with these interests. This clause is commonly used to clarify ownership of intellectual property, control over decision-making, or entitlement to payments. Its core function is to prevent disputes by ensuring that only one party has authority or entitlement in the specified area, thereby promoting certainty and reducing the risk of conflicting claims.
