No Casting Vote Clause Samples
The No Casting Vote clause stipulates that, in the event of a tied vote among decision-makers (such as directors or shareholders), the person presiding over the meeting does not have an additional or deciding vote to break the tie. This means that if votes are evenly split, the motion or resolution in question simply fails to pass, rather than being decided by the chairperson or presiding officer. The core practical function of this clause is to ensure fairness and prevent any single individual from having disproportionate influence in decision-making, thereby promoting balanced governance and reducing the risk of unilateral decisions.
