Put and call of Options Sample Clauses
The 'Put and Call of Options' clause defines the rights of parties to either sell (put) or buy (call) certain assets or interests under specified conditions. In practice, this clause outlines the procedures, timelines, and pricing mechanisms for exercising these options, such as allowing one party to require the other to purchase their shares at a predetermined price or formula. Its core function is to provide flexibility and certainty for both parties regarding future ownership changes, helping to manage exit strategies and reduce disputes over asset transfers.
