When Subsidiary Guarantors May Merge or Transfer Assets Clause Samples

This clause defines the conditions under which subsidiary guarantors are permitted to merge with other entities or transfer their assets. Typically, it outlines specific requirements such as obtaining prior consent from the lender, ensuring the successor entity assumes all obligations, or meeting certain financial criteria. For example, a subsidiary guarantor may only merge if the resulting entity remains bound by the original guarantee. The core function of this clause is to protect the interests of the lender by preventing unauthorized changes in the structure or assets of guarantors, thereby maintaining the security and enforceability of the guarantee.
