Sale and Contribution Agreement

A Sale and Contribution Agreement formalizes the transfer of assets or capital into a joint entity. This playbook analyzes valuation methods, assumption of liabilities, and closing deliverables.

Payment & Pricing Terms

Why This Matters: Clear payment terms reduce disputes, safeguard working capital, and align financial expectations between the parties.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Company:

Negotiate for a payment schedule that aligns with your cash flow needs. Ensure late fees are reasonable and that the reconciliation process is clear and efficient.

If you're the Seller:

Propose a payment structure that supports your cash flow requirements. Include provisions for late fees to incentivize timely payments and a clear reconciliation process for disputes.
