Special Voting Right Sample Clauses

A Special Voting Right clause grants certain shareholders or stakeholders enhanced voting power beyond the standard one-share-one-vote principle. This may apply to specific classes of shares, such as founders’ shares or preferred stock, which might carry multiple votes per share or exclusive rights to approve key decisions. The clause is typically used to allow founders or key investors to retain control over major corporate actions, even if their economic ownership is diluted. Its core function is to protect the interests of specific parties by ensuring they have a decisive say in important company matters, thereby addressing concerns about loss of control or influence.
