Asset Purchase Agreement

An Asset Purchase Agreement governs the sale and transfer of specific business assets, detailing what is included, excluded, and how liabilities are handled. This playbook walks through due diligence, valuation considerations, and risk allocation terms essential for a clean transaction.

Compliance Requirements

Why This Matters: Non-compliance can result in fines, criminal liability, and reputational damage, exposing the client to significant legal and operational risks.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Buyer:

Ensure that compliance clauses are comprehensive and include specific obligations for the Contractor to notify the Company of any regulatory changes. This will help mitigate risks and ensure ongoing adherence to legal requirements.

If you're the Seller:

Negotiate for reasonable timeframes and clear definitions of compliance obligations to avoid undue burdens. Ensure that the Company provides necessary support and information to facilitate compliance.
