HANDCUFFS Clause Samples

The "Handcuffs" clause restricts certain actions or changes by one or more parties during a specified period, typically to maintain stability or protect interests in a transaction. For example, it may prevent a company’s key employees from leaving, or restrict shareholders from selling their shares for a set time after a deal closes. This clause is primarily used to ensure continuity and prevent disruptions that could undermine the value or success of an agreement.
