Consequence of Merger Events Clause Samples

The Consequence of Merger Events clause defines what happens to contractual obligations or rights when one of the parties undergoes a merger, consolidation, or similar corporate restructuring. Typically, this clause outlines whether the contract will continue, be assigned, or terminated, and may specify adjustments to terms or trigger certain rights, such as early termination or renegotiation. Its core function is to provide certainty and protect the interests of both parties by clarifying the impact of significant corporate changes, thereby reducing the risk of disputes or unintended consequences following a merger event.
