Transactions with Affiliates Sample Clauses
The "Transactions with Affiliates" clause regulates dealings between a company and its related parties, such as subsidiaries, parent companies, or entities under common control. Typically, it requires that any transactions with affiliates be conducted on terms no less favorable than those available in comparable arms-length transactions with unrelated third parties, and may mandate prior approval from the board or independent directors. This clause is designed to prevent conflicts of interest and self-dealing, ensuring that all transactions are fair and protect the interests of the company and its stakeholders.
