Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
An MOU establishes the foundational understanding between parties prior to definitive agreements. This playbook reviews negotiation of commitments, timelines, and governance structures.
Representations & Warranties
Negotiation strategy
Ensure representations are specific to the Seller's business operations and legal compliance. Add materiality qualifiers where necessary to limit exposure.
Negotiate to limit the scope and duration of representations. Ensure they reflect actual knowledge and operations to avoid undue liability.
