Business Purchase Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 15, 2023

Is a business purchase agreement binding?

I am interested in purchasing a business and I am currently in the process of negotiating a business purchase agreement. I am curious to know if the agreement is binding and what legal implications it may have if I decide to move forward with the purchase. I have read through the agreement and I understand the terms and conditions, however, I would like to know if the agreement is legally binding.

David B.

Answered Nov 25, 2023

It seems that you are thinking of signing a letter of intent. A letter of intent ("LOI") is normally used to summarize the key points of a deal upon which the parties have reached an understanding. It is a prelude to a full set of agreements used to purchase a business. After the LOI is signed, the parties negotiate the minutiae of a deal and prepare the final set of agreement. LOIs usually contain a statement that the LOI does not bind either party to move forward with a deal. For the most part this is true. However, case law is replete with cases where the LOI was enforced against an unwilling party despite the disclaimer in the LOI. Generally speaking, courts will enforce an LOI where one party did not act in good faith after the LOI was signed, refused to negotiate or signed the LOI for nefarious purposes. A person contemplating an LOI should not assume that language saying the agreement is not binding will clear them of all responsibility. There is a duty to negotiate in good faith.

LLC

Texas

Asked on Oct 28, 2023

Can I sell my LLC post-formation?

I am an entrepreneur looking to start a business and am considering forming a limited liability company (LLC). I have done my research and understand the basics of forming an LLC, but I am now curious to know if I can sell my LLC post-formation. I want to ensure that the structure of my LLC will provide me with the flexibility to sell if the opportunity arises.

Darryl S.

Answered Nov 28, 2023

Yes, you typically can sell an LLC post-formation. Some key points to consider if you may want to sell your LLC in the future: - You retain flexibility to sell membership interests (ownership units) in the LLC rather than the entity itself. This keeps things simpler as transferring formal LLC ownership requires dissolution paperwork. - The operating agreement should clearly outline members' rights and rules around transferring units, such as rights of first refusal and valuation mechanisms. This gives buyers confidence in the process. - Discuss with a lawyer and accountant to set up the appropriate LLC structure for your situation. For example, a single-member vs multi-member LLC may have different implications for a future sale. - Maintain detailed financial records and consistent bookkeeping. This will streamline the due diligence process for prospective buyers. So in short, yes an LLC remains a saleable entity after formation. Consider rules for transfers in the operating agreement, structure properly at the start, and keep excellent records. This gives you maximum flexibility for an ownership exit strategy via selling your LLC interest. Let me know if you need any clarification or have additional questions!

Asset Purchase Agreement

Texas

Asked on Mar 30, 2021

What is the difference between an asset purchase agreement and business purchase agreement?

I am selling my e-commerce store and want to know which one of these I need.

Forest H.

Answered Mar 30, 2021

Just like the name suggests, an asset purchase agreement is just that – an agreement to purchase existing assets. This would be the appropriate document to use if you are buying or selling some or all of the assets of a business but not the business itself. For example, if you own a yard service company and you are interested in buying all of the mowers, trucks, and equipment of another yard service business. An asset purchase agreement would give a defined list of the equipment you are purchasing. If you were interested in buying the whole business, including existing contracts, assuming the debt, and retaining the other business’s employees and perhaps even their name, you would want a business purchase agreement.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

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. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
