Additional Voting Powers and Voting Requirements for Certain Actions Sample Clauses

This clause defines special rules regarding voting powers and the thresholds required for approving specific actions within an organization or agreement. It typically outlines which decisions require more than a simple majority, such as amendments to key provisions, mergers, or dissolution, and may grant certain parties enhanced voting rights for these matters. By establishing heightened voting requirements or additional powers for particular stakeholders, the clause ensures that significant changes cannot be made without broader consensus, thereby protecting the interests of minority parties and maintaining organizational stability.
