Pledged Shares Clause Samples
The Pledged Shares clause defines the shares of stock that are being used as collateral in a secured transaction or agreement. It typically specifies which shares are subject to the pledge, how they are to be held or controlled during the term of the agreement, and the rights of the pledgee (the secured party) in the event of default by the pledgor (the owner of the shares). For example, it may require the pledgor to deliver share certificates to the pledgee or restrict the transfer of the pledged shares. The core function of this clause is to secure the obligations of the pledgor by granting the pledgee a security interest in the shares, thereby reducing the pledgee's risk if the pledgor fails to meet their obligations.
