General Negative Covenants Clause Samples
General Negative Covenants are contractual provisions that restrict a party, typically a borrower or business, from engaging in certain actions without the prior consent of the other party, often a lender or investor. These covenants commonly prohibit activities such as incurring additional debt, selling key assets, or making significant changes to business operations.
