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.

Warranties & Representations

Why This Matters: Overbroad warranties increase the risk of breach claims and litigation, while insufficient remedies leave the client without recourse for performance failures.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Buyer:

Ensure that the warranties are comprehensive enough to cover all critical aspects of the transaction. Negotiate for clear remedies in case of breach and a reasonable limitation of liability.

If you're the Seller:

Limit the scope of warranties to what is commercially reasonable and ensure that any remedies for breach are manageable. Include a limitation of liability to protect against excessive claims.

Essential elements

1

Authority and Capacity

Power to enter agreement.
2

Compliance with Laws

Adherence to applicable laws.
3

Quality and Performance

Conformance to specifications.

Action framework

ACCEPT

Propose edits if the warranties are too broad or lack clear remedies. Ensure the duration aligns with the agreement's needs.

EDIT

Reject if the clause exposes the client to unlimited liability or lacks essential warranties.

ADD

Add if missing, especially to establish baseline assurances and remedies.

PRO TIP

Always align the warranties with industry standards and the specific risks of the transaction.

Alternative scenarios & positions

High-Risk Projects

In high-risk projects, ensure warranties are robust and include specific remedies for potential failures. Consider additional insurance or indemnities.

Technology Transactions

For technology deals, include warranties on software performance and data security. Ensure compliance with tech-specific regulations.

Pharmaceutical Agreements

In pharma, warranties should cover regulatory compliance and product efficacy. Include clauses for recall procedures and liability limitations.
