What is a Transfer Agreement?

A transfer agreement is a legally binding document that conveys ownership from one person or entity to another. Transfer agreements are used to sell real estate, businesses, and other tangible assets as well as intellectual property such as computer code, song lyrics, and industrial processes.

A transfer agreement details the precise property being sold or given away and the money or other consideration the acquiring person or party is paying to take possession. It usually also will include financial terms, each party's right and obligations, and any limitations on the use of the property being transferred.

4. CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

 

4.1 Seller shall transfer to Buyer on the Completion Date all Customer Contracts and/or offers made to customers that Seller has not started to process as of January 31, 2005. Seller will together with Buyer make best effort, to the extent commercially reasonable, to obtain the consent of customers to the transfer of the Customer Contracts. If a Customer Contract cannot be assigned to Buyer because the required consent of another Person cannot be obtained, Buyer shall, as between the Parties, assume and perform the contractual obligations for Seller. Seller will provide to Buyer the benefits of that Transferred Contract that is assumed and performed by Buyer, and enforce for the account and benefit of Buyer and at Buyer’s expense any rights of Seller arising from such Transferred Contract against third Parties (including the right to terminate in accordance with the terms of the respective contract at the request of Buyer). Any payments received on account by Seller will be paid to Buyer. Claims arising from goods or services that have been invoiced prior to the Completion Date but not delivered or performed up to the Completion Date will be assigned to Buyer by Seller.

 

4.2 In the case of contractual obligations that have been commenced as of the Completion Date but are unlikely to be fulfilled by that date, the corresponding contracts are listed in Exhibit 4.2. The conditions of Section 4.1 apply to these contracts accordingly. Buyer grants to Seller and Seller´s Guarantor a free, exclusive, worldwide license and the right to claim patents for the use of cyclosporine derivates for CNS indications on the basis of the data produced by Seller´s Guarantor or its affiliates prior to 1 February 2005. For the avoidance of doubt, buyer is entitled to claim compound of matter patents on the same derivatives and develop and market them in all other indications. Both Parties shall be entitled to sub-license. The financial conditions will be agreed in a separate agreement in good faith.

 

4.3 In the case of performance of contractual obligations fulfilled entirely by Seller, the corresponding contracts shall not be assigned to Buyer. However, all Intellectual Property Rights or other rights that may have been generated from such contracts, shall be transferred to Buyer in so far as these rights still exist and to the extent not related to the Excluded Projects.

 

5. OTHER CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

 

5.1

Buyer shall assume the rights and obligations arising from those contracts listed in Exhibit 5.1 as of the Completion Date, in which case, however, Buyer shall assume only those rights and obligations arising or being invoiced after January 31, 2005.

Seller shall turn over to Buyer originals or copies of all documents pertaining to any such contracts.

 

5.2 The Parties to the Agreement shall cooperate for the purpose of obtaining the consent of the respective signatories to assignment of the contracts. In the event it should prove impossible to obtain such consent, each of the Parties agrees to inform the respective other party accordingly without delay. In any such case, Seller shall with the consent of Buyer either

 

  a) continue to act as contractual partner for the Buyer for the benefit and account of Buyer in accordance with the Buyer’s instructions against complete reimbursement of all costs, or

 

  b) terminate the contract at Buyer’s expense at the earliest possible time.

months after receipt of notice by Seller, claims shall become time-barred unless Buyer files an action against Seller or Seller´s Guarantor.

 

9.7 To the extent permitted by law, any further claims and remedies of the Buyer other than explicitly provided for under Sections 8 and 9 hereof, irrespective of which nature, amount or legal basis, are hereby expressly waived and excluded, in particular, without limitation, claims under pre-contractual fault (Section 311 para. 2 and 3 BGB), breach of contract (Pflichtverletzung aus dem Schuldverhältnis) and/or the right to reduce the Purchase Price (Minderung) or to rescind this Agreement (Rücktritt), and any liability in tort (Deliktshaftung).

 

9.8 Further to the statements made in Section 8.1, the Seller and the Buyer agree that the provisions contained in Section 8 of this Agreement are no quality guarantees concerning the object of the purchase (Garantien für die Beschaffenheit der Sache) within the meaning of Sections 443, 444 BGB. In the unlikely event that the provisions of Sections 8 and 9 setting out the scope and limitations of the Seller’s liability are, contrary to the intention and explicit understanding of the Parties, regarded and construed as quality guarantees concerning the object of the purchase, and the limitations of the Seller’s liability contained herein are therefore found wholly or partially invalid, the Buyer hereby waives the right to assert claims going beyond the limits of limitations provided for herein. The Seller accepts such waiver.

 

10. TAX MATTERS

 

10.1 Buyer and Seller assume that the sales and services to be carried out under this Agreement constitute a disposal of business operations (Geschäftsveräußerung im Ganzen) within the meaning of § 1 para. 1a German Value Added Tax Act (“UStG”) and, therefore, are not subject to VAT (“nicht umsatzsteuerbar”).

If and to the extent the sales and services to be carried out under this Agreement do not constitute a disposal of business operation (Geschäftsveräußerung im Ganzen) within the meaning of § 1 para. 1a UStG, the following shall apply:

Any VAT accruing on the sale of assets is owed by the Seller in accordance with the UStG shall be paid to the Seller on top of the (net) total purchase price. Here and in the following, purchase price means the (net) total purchase price plus any VAT. The amount of such VAT shall be paid subject to the issuing of an invoice pursuant to 10.2. below separately setting out the amount of VAT charged to the Buyer. If and to the extent that after payment of the total purchase price a higher amount of VAT owed by the Seller than actually paid is assessed, such VAT shall be paid by the Buyer in addition to the purchase price within two weeks after the unappealable assessment by the competent tax authorities provided that (i) the Buyer has been informed by the Seller in writing without undue delay about a deviating assessment by the competent tax authorities and the Seller has issued an amended invoice separately setting out the amount of VAT charged to the Buyer.

 

14


10.2 The Seller shall make out and hand over invoices to the Buyer in compliance with § 14 and § 14a UStG. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement shall not be considered as an invoice for VAT purposes.

 

10.3 The Seller and the Buyer shall – to a reasonable extent – cooperate with respect to the VAT treatment of the sales and services to be carried out under this Agreement in order to minimize potentially VAT being cost effective, in particular with respect to the correct and corresponding treatment by the competent tax authorities of the sales and services to be carried out as a disposal of business operations (Geschäftsveräußerung im Ganzen) within the meaning of § 1 para. 1a UStG.

 

10.4 Buyer and Seller agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Sold Assets or the Business as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all tax returns, the preparation for any audit by any taxing authority, and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any tax return. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in the conduct of any audit or other proceeding related to taxes involving the Business.

 

10.5 The Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and against all taxes related to the Business Buyer might be held secondarily liable by the tax authorities according to sec. 75 of the German General Tax Act (Abgabenordnung - AO) except to the extent, that such tax liabilities have been duly and fully paid to the competent tax authority by Seller. If a claim, Seller has to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and against, arises as a result or in connection with a liablity to a tax authority (i) Buyer shall, after he is informed by an official notice of a tax authority, give notice in writing including copies of the tax authority´s notice, if in writing, or other documents received together with the notice to Seller, (ii) Buyer will dispute, resist, appeal, compromise or defend the claim upon request of and according to the directions of Seller, and (iii) Buyer shall permit Seller or his duly authorised advisors, if they are subject to a professional duty of confidentiality, to be involved in the respective tax procedure, if reasonable.

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.
