Indebtedness Clause Samples
The Indebtedness clause defines and regulates the types and amounts of debt that a party may incur during the term of an agreement. It typically outlines what constitutes indebtedness, such as loans, credit lines, or guarantees, and may set limits or require consent for taking on new financial obligations. This clause serves to protect the interests of the other party by preventing excessive or risky borrowing that could jeopardize the financial stability or creditworthiness of the party subject to the restriction.
