FAQ
Consistent with the phrase, a defined term is a word or term, often capitalized or otherwise distinguished from other text throughout the agreement, that is to be read to include the particular meaning given to it in the agreement.
A clause is a group of related words containing both a subject and a verb. Remember that the subject is the who or what and the verb is the action. For example, in this sentence: 'I run daily,' the subject, or who, is 'I,' and the verb, or action, is 'run.
Contracts are made up of three basic parts – an offer, an acceptance and consideration. The offer and acceptance are what the purpose of the agreement is between the parties.
Some useful tips: Capitalise first letter. Unless there is a strong reason for not doing so, first letter of a defined term should be capital. Capitalise all words. No all capitals. Other references. Define at one place. Use a defined term only after definition. Stay with the definition. Define only if you use the term.
Defined terms are often included at the beginning of and/or throughout a contract and are identified by some sort of separation of the term from the definition, in many cases using parentheticals, quotation marks, bolding, or other stylistic changes or a combination of these.
A contract is an agreement between two parties that creates an obligation to perform (or not perform) a particular duty. A legally enforceable contract requires the following elements, all of which are discussed in more detail below.
For example, an angle is a defined term in geometry, because we can define it as the corners that are produced when two lines intersect. That is, we can define an angle using other geometrical terms (in this definition, those terms are a line and an intersection point).
A contract is created at law when there is a mutual exchange of promises upon reasonably understandable terms and conditions. A contract does not have to be reduced to writing in order to be enforceable; however, for the purposes of this manual, the term contract is intended to mean a written form of communication.
To be legally valid, a contract must fulfill four basic requirements: All signees must be above the age of consent. All parties must agree to the contract freely. All parties must be able to understand the agreement (legal capacity) The terms of the agreement must be permitted in law.
