Define and compare the terms "vagueness" and "ambiguity."
Vagueness occurs when the parties do not want the contract to be clear. They want to keep their options open, so they don't clearly define some terms.
Ambiguity is different --- it means that the provision is accidentally unclear. It occurs in contracts when the parties think only about what they want a provision to mean, without considering the literal meaning or the other side's perspective. Any ambiguity is interpreted against the drafter of the contract.
