A stock purchase agreement is a contract that governs the sale of stock in a company, detailing price, terms, and conditions of transfer.
Common elements include purchase price, payment terms, representations and warranties, covenants, closing conditions, and indemnification, followed by drafting, review, and final execution.
These terms help you understand the core concepts involved in stock purchases.
The amount paid to acquire stock, including any adjustments, earnouts, or holdbacks.
Statements about the company, its assets, and legal status that reassure the other party and form a basis for remedies if false.
The point at which ownership transfers, funds are paid, and documents are delivered.
A promise to compensate for losses arising from breaches of the agreement or undisclosed liabilities.
