Restrictions on Certain Actions Clause Samples

The "Restrictions on Certain Actions" clause serves to limit or prohibit specific activities or behaviors by one or more parties under the agreement. Typically, this clause outlines actions such as transferring assets, incurring new debt, or making significant business changes without prior consent. By clearly defining what is not permitted, the clause helps prevent actions that could undermine the agreement’s purpose or expose parties to unforeseen risks, thereby ensuring stability and predictability in the contractual relationship.
Restrictions on Certain Actions. During the earlier of (a) five years from the date of this Agreement or (b) two years after the termination of the Venture Agreement, except as permitted pursuant to Section 5 hereof, Buyer, without the prior consent of the Company's Board of Directors will not, nor will it permit any affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 of Regulation 12B under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) of Buyer to: (a) acquire (other than through stock splits or stock dividends), directly or indirectly or in conjunction with or through any other person, by purchase or otherwise, beneficial ownership of any additional shares of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company entitled to vote generally for the election of directors ("Voting Securities"); (b) directly or indirectly or through any other person, solicit proxies with respect to Voting Securities under any circumstance; or become a "participant" in any "election contest" relating to the election of directors of the Company (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit Buyer from soliciting proxies for the purpose of opposing any increase in the ownership limitation currently contained in the Company's Articles of Incorporation.
