# Term Auction Group

The Term Auction group of contracts contain the logic to handle and process bid and offer submissions, determine an auction clearing price, and to settle and clear a Term Auction. The relationship between the Term Auction Group and the Term Servicer group is many to one. There can be multiple Term Auctions that settle into a single set of contracts belonging to the same Term Servicer Group with the same terms and conditions.
