Restrictions on Transfer of Membership Interests Sample Clauses
The "Restrictions on Transfer of Membership Interests" clause limits or regulates how and when members of a company can sell, assign, or otherwise transfer their ownership interests. Typically, this clause may require members to obtain approval from other members or the company before transferring their interests, or it may grant existing members a right of first refusal to purchase the interests before they are offered to outsiders. Its core function is to maintain control over the company's ownership structure, prevent unwanted third parties from becoming members, and protect the interests of the existing members.
