Transfer by Developer Sample Clauses
The "Transfer by Developer" clause defines the conditions under which a developer may assign or transfer their rights and obligations under an agreement to another party. Typically, this clause outlines whether the developer needs the consent of the other contracting party before making such a transfer, and may specify any exceptions or requirements, such as notice periods or qualifications of the transferee. Its core practical function is to provide clarity and control over changes in the party responsible for fulfilling the developer's contractual duties, thereby protecting the interests of all parties involved and ensuring continuity in the project's execution.
