Extraordinary Dividends Clause Samples
The Extraordinary Dividends clause defines how dividends that are unusually large or outside the normal course of business are treated under an agreement. Typically, this clause sets thresholds or criteria for what constitutes an extraordinary dividend and may require the consent of certain parties before such dividends can be declared or paid. Its core function is to prevent one party from extracting excessive value from a company, thereby protecting the interests of other stakeholders and maintaining the intended balance of value within the agreement.
