Clauses Restricting Subsidiary Distributions Clause Samples
Clauses restricting subsidiary distributions are provisions that limit or control the ability of a subsidiary company to pay dividends or transfer assets to its parent or other related entities. These clauses typically specify conditions under which distributions can be made, such as requiring the subsidiary to meet certain financial thresholds or obtain prior approval from lenders or other stakeholders. By imposing these restrictions, the clause helps protect creditors and investors by ensuring that the subsidiary retains sufficient resources to meet its obligations, thereby reducing the risk of asset stripping or financial instability within the corporate group.
