Terms Sheet

Washington

Asked on Aug 2, 2024

Can you explain the key provisions typically found in a term sheet for a business partnership?

I am in the early stages of negotiating a potential business partnership with another entrepreneur, and we have been advised to create a term sheet to outline the main terms and conditions of our agreement. However, I have limited knowledge about term sheets and would like to understand the key provisions that are typically included in such documents. I want to ensure that our term sheet covers all necessary aspects and protects both parties' interests before we proceed with further negotiations or legal documentation.

Jonathan W.

Answered Sep 13, 2024

There are a couple of strategies for drafting term sheets. They can be extremely comprehensive leaving little material to the definitive documents or they can be very high level leaving most of the material terms to the definitive agreement. My preference and I think it often saves on legal costs is to have a very detailed term sheet. The reasons high-level ones are often used is because there is a need to get to a signed term sheet, the parties know each other or there is some other urgency that leads to having a less-than-detailed term sheet. The basic sections in a term sheet are: PART ONE (non-binding provisions) 1. BASIC TRANSACTION. Summarizes structure of transaction. 2. PRICE/ECONOMICS 3. OTHER TERMS. Both parties agree to be honest and straightforward in their warranties and representations. PART TWO. The following are the legally binding and enforceable agreements of the Parties. 1. ACCESS. Both parties shall provide access to any information the other entity may require throughout the transaction. 2. EXCLUSIVE DEALING. Both parties agree to stop looking for a similar entity to partner with. 3. BREAK-UP FEE (only in the M&A context but could be for a business deal to compensate party for other parties breach) 4. CONDUCT OF BUSINESS. Regular business should occur at both entities throughout the transaction. 5. CONFIDENTIALITY. Both entities will keep all materials, conversations and knowledge gained confidential. 6. DISCLOSURE. Both entities will not discuss the proposed transaction with anyone until completed then they will issue a press release together. 7. COSTS. Both entities pay their own professional service fees. 8. CONSENTS. Both entities will follow appropriate internal legal process/approval. 9. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This document supersedes all previous documents and/or other forms of communication relating to this transaction. 10. GOVERNING LAW. The Binding Provisions will be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of [Washington] without regard to conflicts of laws principles. 11. JURISDICTION: SERVICE OF PROCESS. Defines how legal proceedings will work regarding this document. 12. TERMINATION. States when this document will expire. 13. COUNTERPARTS. Covers how the contract is signed. 14. NO LIABILITY. The past is wiped clean by this document, with respect to historical dealings between the two entities.

Contract Amendment

Arizona

Asked on Aug 7, 2024

Can a contract be amended without the consent of both parties?

I entered into a contract with a business partner to start a small consulting firm, outlining our respective roles, profit sharing, and decision-making process. However, my partner recently informed me that they intend to amend the contract to give themselves a greater share of the profits and decision-making power, without seeking my consent. I am concerned about the legality and enforceability of these proposed amendments, and I want to know if a contract can be amended without the consent of both parties, and what legal recourse I may have in this situation.

Daniel D.

Answered Sep 20, 2024

In most cases, a contract cannot be unilaterally amended by one party without the consent of the other party. Contracts are agreements that require mutual consent, so any changes to the terms must also be agreed upon by all parties involved, unless the original contract explicitly provides for unilateral amendments (which is rare in standard contracts, especially those related to partnerships).

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.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
