Major Transaction Clause Samples
The Major Transaction clause defines what constitutes a significant or material transaction under the agreement, typically by setting specific thresholds or criteria such as transaction value, asset transfers, or changes in control. In practice, this clause may require parties to obtain prior consent, provide notice, or meet additional conditions before proceeding with transactions that meet the defined criteria. Its core function is to ensure that all parties are aware of and can manage the risks associated with substantial changes, thereby protecting their interests and maintaining transparency in the event of major business decisions.
