LIMITS ON GENERAL PARTNER'S POWERS Sample Clauses
The "Limits on General Partner's Powers" clause defines specific restrictions on the authority of the general partner within a partnership or investment fund. Typically, this clause outlines actions that the general partner cannot take without the consent of the limited partners or a governing body, such as making large expenditures, amending key agreements, or entering into transactions with affiliates. By setting these boundaries, the clause protects the interests of other partners and ensures that significant decisions are subject to oversight, thereby reducing the risk of unilateral actions that could negatively impact the partnership.
