Subsidiary Indebtedness Clause Samples
The Subsidiary Indebtedness clause defines the rules and limitations regarding the amount and types of debt that a company's subsidiaries are permitted to incur. Typically, this clause sets specific thresholds or conditions under which subsidiaries can borrow money, issue bonds, or enter into other financial obligations, and may require lender consent for certain transactions. By establishing these boundaries, the clause helps protect the interests of lenders or investors by preventing excessive risk-taking or hidden liabilities within the corporate group.
