Mergers, Etc Sample Clauses
The "Mergers, Etc" clause defines how the agreement is affected by significant corporate changes such as mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, or sales of assets involving one of the parties. Typically, this clause specifies whether the rights and obligations under the contract will transfer automatically to the successor entity or if consent is required for such a transfer. For example, if a company is acquired, this clause determines if the new owner inherits the contract's terms. Its core function is to provide clarity and continuity regarding contractual obligations in the event of major organizational changes, thereby reducing uncertainty and potential disputes.
