Asset Purchase Agreement
Florida

Acquisitions
Stock Purchase Agreement
Connecticut
What is a stock purchase agreement?
I am a small business owner looking to purchase a company and I am interested in understanding more about a stock purchase agreement. I understand that this type of agreement is used when a buyer wishes to purchase the stock of a company, but I would like to learn more about the specifics of the agreement and what is involved in the process.
Thomas L.
There are two ways to purchase a company. Buy its assets individually, or purchase the stock of the company. Buying the assets is more legal work, and more expensive and disruptive to the purchased business' relationship with third parties such as employees, customers, vendors, and banks, but avoids assuming the liabilities of the selling company. Buying the stock of the company is far less disruptive, but runs the risk of assuming undisclosed liabilities of the company.
Acquisitions
Business Purchase Agreement
California
Can I assign rights in a business purchase agreement?
I am in the process of purchasing a business and I am considering assigning some of my rights under the purchase agreement to a third party. I would like to know if this is allowed under the law and what the potential risks or consequences might be. I am also interested in understanding the steps that need to be taken to ensure that all parties are adequately protected under the agreement.
David B.
The general rule is that contracts may be freely assigned to third parties. However, most agreements have clauses that limit or prohibit assignment unless the non-assigning party agrees to the assignment.
Acquisitions
Lock-up Agreement
California
Can you explain the purpose and implications of a lock-up agreement in the context of a business acquisition?
I am currently in the process of selling my small business to a larger corporation. As part of the negotiations, the acquiring company has proposed including a lock-up agreement in the deal. While I have a general understanding that a lock-up agreement restricts the sale of shares for a specified period after the acquisition, I would like a more detailed explanation of its purpose and potential implications. Specifically, I would like to know how long the lock-up period typically lasts, whether there are any exceptions or conditions that may allow me to sell my shares before the lock-up period expires, and what potential risks or advantages I should consider before agreeing to such an arrangement.
Phillip Z.
Entering into a lock-up agreement when selling your business can have significant implications. Depending on the complexity of the transaction, the lock-up period can range from a few months to over a year. A lock-up agreement may limit your ability to negotiate certain aspects of timing and terms. However, it can also help stabilize a potential acquisition and mitigate risk for the buyer. Being unable to sell your interest in the business during the lock-up period can impact liquidity and your ability to manage the tax effects of the eventual sale. Of course, the specific terms within the lock-up agreement will play a crucial role.
Acquisitions
Escrow Account Agreement
Georgia
What are the key provisions that should be included in an Escrow Agreement?
I am in the process of finalizing a business deal where I will be placing a substantial amount of money into an escrow account. I want to ensure that my interests are protected and that all parties involved are clear on the terms and conditions. I would like to know what are the essential provisions that should be included in an Escrow Agreement to safeguard my investment and mitigate potential risks.
Jerome L.
Great question—and smart move getting ahead of this. When you're placing a substantial amount of money into escrow, the agreement becomes critical to protect your investment and ensure all parties are aligned on how the funds will be handled. Here are the key provisions that should be included in a well-drafted Escrow Agreement: Parties to the Agreement Clearly identify the buyer, seller (or contracting parties), and the escrow agent, including their contact details and roles. Purpose of the Escrow Define why the funds are being held—whether it’s for a business acquisition, service milestone, asset transfer, etc. Escrowed Funds or Assets Specify the amount or nature of what is being held in escrow, including how it should be handled (e.g., deposited into an interest-bearing account). Conditions for Release Detail exactly when and how the escrow agent is authorized to release the funds—e.g., upon delivery of services, closing of a deal, receipt of signed documents, etc. Instructions & Disbursement Process Outline how release instructions are communicated, who must approve them, and what form they should take (e.g., written, signed by both parties). Duties & Liabilities of the Escrow Agent Define the escrow agent’s responsibilities, their standard of care, and a liability limitation clause to avoid disputes over unintentional delays or errors. Fees & Expenses Clarify who pays the escrow fees and how those fees will be structured—fixed, hourly, or percentage-based. Dispute Resolution Clause Include a provision on how disputes will be handled if there’s a disagreement about release conditions (e.g., mediation, arbitration, or court jurisdiction). Termination & Expiration Explain when the agreement ends—whether upon release of funds, mutual agreement, or lapse of a set time period—and what happens to the funds if unresolved. Governing Law Identify which state's laws will apply to the agreement, particularly if parties are in different jurisdictions. If you'd like, I can help draft or review your escrow agreement to ensure these provisions are solid and customized to your deal. Happy to help you safeguard your investment and give you peace of mind at every stage.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
