The Holdback Sample Clauses
The Holdback clause establishes that a portion of payment or funds is temporarily withheld by one party until certain conditions are met. In practice, this means that a buyer may retain a percentage of the purchase price in a transaction until the seller fulfills specific obligations, such as delivering goods in satisfactory condition or resolving outstanding liabilities. The core function of this clause is to protect the withholding party by providing leverage to ensure performance and address potential issues before final payment is released.
