Restricted Actions Sample Clauses
The Restricted Actions clause defines specific activities or decisions that a party is prohibited from undertaking without prior consent or under certain conditions. Typically, this clause outlines actions such as making significant financial commitments, entering into major contracts, or changing key business operations, which require approval from another party, such as a lender or investor. Its core practical function is to protect the interests of stakeholders by preventing unilateral decisions that could materially affect the value or risk profile of the business or agreement.
