Corporate
Stock Purchase Agreement
New York
Stock purchase agreement and post-closing obligations?
I am looking to purchase a business and I recently received a Stock Purchase Agreement from the seller. I am concerned about my post-closing obligations, such as continuing to fund the business or other contractual obligations, and would like to understand what these obligations are before I commit to the purchase. I would like to know what I should be aware of and what risks I may face if I accept the agreement.
Daniel R.
I would focus on: What obligations do you have under the reps and warranties? Is there an escrow holdback? Is there any liabilities staying with you.
Corporate
Asset Purchase Agreement
New York
What should be included in an asset purchase agreement?
I am considering buying a chain of laundry mats and have been told I would need an asset purchase agreement for the legal paperwork involved. I don't believe I want to buy the business, but am not sure. I think I would just want to buy their machines and take over their leases. If this was the case, what would I need to have in an agreement?
Michael S.
As the buyer, your preference is always to by the assets rather than the existing business entity. That way, you will have greater protection against liabilities of the business that arose before your purchase. You can also structure the deal so that you're buying only those assets you're interested in, and can carve out those assets you don't want to buy. You do want an attorney assisting you, as there are pitfalls in the process, and you want to be protected. Thanks.
Corporate
Articles of Incorporation
New York
Does an LLC need articles of incorporation?
I am considering forming an NY LLC and am doing a bit of research.
Ramsey T.
LLCs are not technically "companies" or "corporations" and therefore they are not formed by filing Articles of Incorporation. Corporations are formed when you file Articles of Incorporation. LLS are formed by an "Organizer" who files a Form of Organization or Articles of Organization with a state. LLCs actually are "hybrids" with characteristic of companies in some ways and of partnerships in other ways.

Stock Option Agreement
New York
ESOP - employee share option plan
Hello! My company provide me a fixed amount ($10,000) of equity within 4 years, with 25% vested after 12 months and said "The options will have a “strike price” which is based on the market value of the Company at the time your options are issued to you." What does it mean? Will i need to pay the different price every year?
Michelle F.
Would really need to see the documents to properly answer this question. Is the value of the equity fixed at $10,000? Typically you get a number of shares that vest (become available to you) over x amount of time. The strike price is the amount you will pay to the company to exercise the option. (Disclaimer: This is not legal advice.)

Severance Agreement
New York
Can I negotiate the terms of a severance agreement with my employer?
I have recently been informed by my employer that my position is being eliminated due to company restructuring, and they have offered me a severance agreement. However, I have concerns about some of the terms in the agreement, such as the non-compete clause and the amount of severance pay being offered. I would like to know if it is possible for me to negotiate these terms with my employer before signing the agreement.
Arthur S.
Severance Agreements are often presented to employees as a "take it or leave it proposition": however, it has been my experience that many of the underlying provisions of these severance agreements are, in fact, negotiable. Also, as an employee, you are not without rights...a fact that is often, though reluctantly, recognized by employers. the agreements prepared on behalf of employers are often heavy handed and should not be entered into by the employee without advice of coounsel./
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
