About this document
This is a straight forward company purchase and sale agreement. The seller takes part of the price in the shares of the buyer but apart from that, the deal is simple. However, the buyer is protected by very comprehensive warranties. The principle of warranties is covered very fully in the drafting notes provided.
This agreement can be used for high value transactions and for any sort of business. We do offer variants on the deal you may wish to negotiate, as set out in the table below.
Use the table to select which best suits you. This template is suitable for all types of business. You can use this document to buy a car dealership or a dentist’s practice.

A word about warranties:
Warranties protect the interest of the buyer, who does not have the information available to the seller. It is fair and reasonable for a buyer to demand warranties and for a seller to give them. However, it is quite easy for a buyer to use warranties to "improve" his original deal. So, if you are a seller, do not give a warranty if you do not know whether it is true, but do be prepared to "go and find out" information that could be within your knowledge.
The document includes 115 individual warranties in sections relating to:
- General
- No damaging effect of this agreement
- Company structure and operation
- Accounts
- Cash flow
- Taxation
- Guarantees and borrowing
- Assets
- Trading and contracts
- Properties - all
- Properties let by the company
- Employment
- Insurance
- Intellectual property
- Information technology
IMPORTANT: use a shareholder agreement too
As this deal entitles the seller to receive shares, immediately on completion of this agreement, the seller should enter into a shareholders' agreement with the existing shareholders of the buyer. All of the detailed control is best exercised through a shareholder agreement.
