Drafting Purchase & Sale Agreements Guide
At Omni Law P.C., our experienced M&A lawyers ensure PSAs are clear, enforceable, and aligned with client goals.
What Is a Purchase and Sale Agreement?
A Purchase and Sale Agreement is the binding contract that formalizes the terms of a business acquisition. It covers the purchase price, payment structure, representations and warranties, closing conditions, and remedies if disputes arise. Because the PSA governs how the deal unfolds, precision and attention to detail are essential.
Key Components of a Strong Agreement
Every PSA must be carefully tailored to the transaction.
Common provisions include:
- Purchase Price and Structure: Specifies the amount, timing, and form of payment.
- Representations and Warranties: Statements of fact that each party makes about the business and its condition.
- Indemnification: Outlines how losses or liabilities will be handled after closing.
- Closing Conditions: Requirements that must be satisfied before the deal is finalized.
Each of these terms can significantly affect the outcome of the transaction, making skilled negotiation and drafting critical.
Risks of Poorly Drafted Agreements
Ambiguity, missing provisions, or one-sided terms can expose buyers or sellers to unnecessary risk. Disputes over undisclosed liabilities, unclear closing conditions, or vague representations can lead to costly litigation. Business acquisition lawyers help ensure the agreement reflects the parties’ true intentions and prevents misunderstandings that can derail a deal.
