Change in Control Přehled doložky

A change-in-control clause defines what happens to the agreement if one party is acquired, merges, or otherwise experiences a change in who owns or controls it, for example, giving the other party a right to terminate or renegotiate.

Parties add this because a contract negotiated with one company's leadership, strategy, or ownership structure may no longer make sense if that company is acquired by a competitor or changes direction entirely.

Check how "change in control" is defined (a percentage-of-ownership threshold is common), whether it triggers automatic rights or just a notice obligation, and whether it applies to both parties equally or only protects one side.

VERITONE, INC.Registration Statement (Form S-1)2017-11-15DEServices-Computer Processing & Data Preparation
In the event we experience a change in control, each outstanding award may be (i) assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof), (ii) canceled and substituted with an award granted by the successor corporation (or parent thereof), (iii) otherwise continued in effect pursuant to the terms of the change in control transaction or (iv) replaced with a cash incentive program that preserves the intrinsic value of the award and provides for the subsequent vesting and payout of that value in accordance with the same vesting schedule in effect for that award. In the absence of such assumption, continuation or replacement of the award, the award will automatically vest in full immediately prior to the change in control. The plan administrator will have discretion to grant one or more awards which will vest upon a change in control or in the event the individual's service with us or the successor entity terminates within a designated period following a change in control transaction.

CHEMICAL & MINING CO OF CHILE INCAnnual Report (Form 20-F)
The Company By-laws provide that no shareholder may hold more than 32% of the Company's shares, unless the By-laws are modified at an Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting. Moreover, on December 12, 2000, the Chilean Government published the Ley de Oferta Pública de Acciones ('Public Share Offering Law') or (OPA law) that seeks to protect the interests of minority shareholders of open stock corporations in transactions involving a change in control, by requiring that the potential new controller purchase the shares owned by the remaining shareholders either in total or pro rata. The law applies to those transactions in which the controlling party would receive a material premium price compared with the price that would be received by the minority shareholders.

Často kladené otázky

Co je doložka Change in Control?
A contractual provision addressing the effects on the agreement when there is a change in ownership, management, or control of a party.
Kdy by smlouva měla obsahovat doložku Change in Control?
Strany obvykle takovou doložku doplňují, když je dané téma natolik důležité, že chtějí, aby smlouva sama vyjadřovala jasné, vyjednané stanovisko, a nenechávají je na výkladu, obchodním zvyklostech nebo na výchozí úpravě, která by se jinak uplatnila. Konkrétnost formulace obvykle odráží, jak důležitý tento bod byl při vyjednávání.
Na co si dát pozor při revizi doložky Change in Control?
Formulace tohoto typu doložky se mezi smlouvami velmi liší, rozsah, spouštěcí podmínky, výjimky a související definované pojmy se často intenzivně vyjednávají. Při revizi ji porovnávejte se svými vlastními prioritami a nepředpokládejte, že platí standardní nebo „tržní“ verze, a zkontrolujte, jak souvisí s ostatními doložkami téže smlouvy.
Je tato doložka právně vyžadována a mohu příklad prostě zkopírovat do své smlouvy?
Zda je taková doložka potřeba a jak přesně má být formulována, závisí na smlouvě, odvětví a právních předpisech, které se na danou smlouvu vztahují. Příklady na této stránce slouží k obecnému vzdělávání a jako reference, nikoli jako právní poradenství, proto nechte u smlouvy, kterou hodláte podepsat, konkrétní znění zkontrolovat kvalifikovaným advokátem.
