Exchange Agent and Exchange Fund Clause Samples

The 'Exchange Agent and Exchange Fund' clause designates a third-party entity, known as the exchange agent, to manage the process of exchanging shares or other securities in a merger or acquisition. This agent is responsible for receiving the original securities from shareholders and distributing the new consideration, such as cash or replacement shares, according to the terms of the transaction. By centralizing and standardizing the exchange process, this clause ensures an orderly and efficient transfer of ownership, minimizing confusion and reducing administrative errors during the closing of the deal.
