Portfolio Exception Clause Samples
A Portfolio Exception clause allows certain assets, investments, or accounts within a broader portfolio to be excluded from the general terms or restrictions of an agreement. In practice, this means that while most assets in a portfolio may be subject to specific covenants or limitations—such as restrictions on transfer, use, or encumbrance—those identified under the exception are not bound by these rules. For example, a lender might permit a borrower to manage or dispose of certain assets freely, even though the rest of the portfolio is pledged as collateral. The core function of this clause is to provide flexibility by carving out specific items from otherwise broad contractual obligations, thereby accommodating unique circumstances or business needs.
