Wind-Down Fund Clause Samples

A Wind-Down Fund clause establishes a dedicated reserve of funds to cover the costs and obligations associated with winding down a business or project. This clause typically specifies how much money will be set aside, what types of expenses are eligible for payment from the fund—such as final payroll, outstanding debts, or regulatory compliance costs—and the process for distributing any remaining balance. Its core practical function is to ensure that sufficient resources are available to facilitate an orderly and compliant closure, thereby protecting stakeholders from unexpected liabilities during the dissolution process.
