Stock Purchase Agreement

California

Asked on Jun 4, 2023

Stock purchase agreement legal requirements?

I am looking to purchase stock in a company and I want to ensure that I am legally protected. I am looking to enter into a Stock Purchase Agreement with the company, and I want to make sure that all legal requirements are met before I sign the agreement. I am looking for advice on what legal requirements need to be met in order for the Stock Purchase Agreement to be legally binding.

Russell M.

Answered Jun 20, 2023

It's important to note that this is not an exhaustive list, and specific considerations may vary depending on the circumstances. Consulting with a qualified attorney is crucial to tailor the agreement to your specific needs. Here are some key areas to focus on: 1. Stock Description: Clearly define the shares being purchased, including the class of stock, number of shares, and any special rights or restrictions associated with the shares. You absolutely want to see the full record of the articles of incorporation, bylaws and any possibly existing shareholder agreements that could modify your rights in any way. 2. Purchase Price and Payment Terms: Specify the agreed-upon purchase price, payment structure (e.g., lump sum or installment), and any contingencies or adjustments based on audited financial statements or other factors. 3. The stock sale transaction is approved by the Board of Directors and possibly the Shareholders. You should be able to see the corporate action, either as a Written Consent or a Resolution taken by vote and certified by the corporate Secretary, who is the officer responsible for recording the minutes. 4. Representations and Warranties: Require the seller to make certain representations and warranties regarding the company's financial condition, assets, liabilities, contracts, intellectual property, compliance with laws, and any pending litigation. 5. Conditions Precedent: Specify the conditions that must be met before the transaction can be completed, such as obtaining necessary regulatory approvals, consents, or waivers. 6. Due Diligence: You should conduct thorough due diligence on the company, its financial records, contracts, intellectual property, and any other relevant aspects to identify any potential issues or risks. Generally, an acknowledgement of your access to, and conduct of, due diligence is good to include in the agreement. 7. Proper completion of any securities filing. Particularly if you are not the only investor, past present, or future, you should expect and require the company to be compliant with securities rules. Failure to observe the securities rules is red flag. 8. Governing Law and Jurisdiction: Determine the governing law and jurisdiction that will apply to the interpretation and enforcement of the agreement. Remember also that if you are investing in a corporation that is incorporated in a state other than where you reside, that state corporation law will generally govern your shareholder rights.

Purchase And Sale Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 9, 2023

Confidentiality in a purchase and sale agreement?

I am a small business owner looking to purchase another business and I am currently negotiating a Purchase and Sale Agreement. I am concerned about the confidentiality of the agreement and would like to ensure that all parties involved are abiding by the terms of the agreement. I am also concerned about any potential liabilities that may arise from the agreement and would like to ensure that I am adequately protected.

Rosemary L.

Answered Sep 12, 2023

Confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements are common in the purchase and sale of businesses. They are meant to allow a buyer and seller to negotiate and reach terms on an agreement without information leaking which would impact the business, such as financial information, impact on employees, future plans and trade secrets. It is common practice for these agreements to be signed. If the agreement is breached, the party who has been injured by the breach can sue the other party for damages or other appropriate remedies.

I am working on putting together a larger agreement that can cover everything that I do. I am a Digital Marketing agency and there are a lot of services we provide - Google Ads, SEO, backlinking, content writing, etc. I want to know what should go in my MSA.

Some of the baseline terms will be 1) services offered 2) time of delivery of the services 3) amount to be paid for the services 4) the responsibilities of the parties 5) what happens if the parties do not agree. DISCLAIMER The answers to these questions do not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship with the attorney and anyone who reviews these responses.

Partnership Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 6, 2022

How to dissolve a partnership agreement?

I want to get out of a partnership we have with another business where we are sharing profits from products we're selling. It isn't working out and the other party isn't living up to their obligations based on what we initially discuss.

Usually, partnership agreements have a termination provision which addresses when and how the partnership can be terminated. Typically, termination occurs upon the vote of the partners or upon the occurrence of an event or number of years.

Building Lease

California

Asked on Nov 21, 2023

Are building lease deposits refundable?

I am a tenant looking to rent a commercial building. I am in the process of signing the lease agreement and wanted to understand if the security deposit I have to pay will be refundable. I understand that this will depend on the terms of the lease, but I wanted to get a better understanding of what is common in the industry.

David B.

Answered Nov 25, 2023

Generally speaking, a security deposit is refundable after a lease expires if the tenant complies with all of the terms and conditions of the lease. When a landlord leases a commercial building, they are giving the tenant possession of a very valuable asset and they are trusting the tenant to maintain and care for it. The deposit gives some assurance to the landlord that if the premises is damaged or rent is not paid, there is a source of money to pay the landlord. This is the general way security deposits work but the landlord and tenant can agree to substantially different terms.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch.
