Accreting Dividends Sample Clauses

The Accreting Dividends clause defines how dividends on certain securities, such as preferred stock, accumulate over time by increasing the dividend amount rather than paying it out periodically. Instead of receiving regular cash payments, the unpaid dividends are added to the principal or liquidation preference, causing the amount owed to grow each period. This mechanism is commonly used in venture capital or private equity deals to enhance investor returns if dividends are not paid in cash. The core function of this clause is to ensure that investors are compensated for deferred payments, thereby protecting their expected returns and incentivizing timely dividend payments.
