Four Over Five Sample Clauses

The "Four Over Five" clause establishes a threshold or requirement that four out of five specified parties, votes, or conditions must be met or agreed upon for a particular action to proceed. In practice, this could apply to board decisions, shareholder approvals, or committee resolutions, where a supermajority is needed rather than a simple majority. By setting a higher bar for approval, the clause ensures that significant actions have broad support, thereby reducing the risk of decisions being made by a narrow margin and promoting consensus among stakeholders.
