Certain Pre-Closing Actions Clause Samples
The 'Certain Pre-Closing Actions' clause defines specific actions or obligations that parties must undertake or avoid between signing a contract and the official closing of a transaction. Typically, this clause restricts the seller from making significant business changes, such as incurring new debt, selling assets, or altering key contracts, without the buyer’s consent during this interim period. Its core function is to preserve the value and condition of the business as agreed upon, ensuring that the buyer receives the business in the expected state at closing and mitigating the risk of adverse changes before the transaction is finalized.
