Help CentreMerger and acquisition agreements cover a variety of contracts to transfer businesses or companies. This share purchase agreement developed by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) becomes extremely useful in any situation where the entire issued share capital of a company or business is acquired by another.
The ICC Model Contract Mergers and Acquisitions is an invaluable tool helping parties and lawyers who are not specialised in merger and acquisition contracts draft a simple contract. It covers the most common issues involved while leaving enough flexibility for the parties to work out special situations for themselves.
Buyers, sellers, lawyers and scholars will find in this model contract a useful companion in their daily work which will help them deal with pre-closing and post-closing undertakings, price and closing, warranties, indemnification, restrictive covenants and confidentiality, among other issues covered in the annexes and schedules.
Each ICC Model Contract includes a fully editable version in Microsoft Word, permitting you to easily adapt the contract to your specific case.
