We've updated our before-and-after section - click here for some interesting new examples.
And just in is this exceptional example from Candice:
The bewildering before:
Condition Precedent
Notwithstanding the generality of the aforegoing, the liability of the Company to make payouts of all and any amounts under this agreement shall be contingent upon the strict observance and fulfillment by the Applicant of the provisions of this agreement insofar as they relate to anything to be done or complied with by the Applicant.
And the exceptionally succint after:
You must comply with all terms of this agreement before we will pay out any amounts.
