Sale & Purchase Agreement – Limited Company buying goodwill only

This is a c.30 page sale and purchase agreement which gives structure to an agreement to buy & sell an accountancy practice. It is intended for use in situations where a Limited Company is purchasing the goodwill only (i.e. the assets of the practice) but NOT the SHARES.

While it cannot suit all situations it may be adapted & offers an excellent starting point setting out a range of clauses which you may wish to use in your final agreement.

Upon request we will be happy to supply you with supporting notes to assist you as you work through this document.

If first completed before being passed across to a solicitor to check over (whose normal fees could be in the range of £2,000 – £8,000), it should save on legal fees & compress the timeframe for a deal, depending on the instructions given to the solicitor.

If you also purchase A.P.M.A.’s preceding document master Heads of Agreement (and possibly the Due Diligence Issues document), the time to completion & the legal costs could be reduced further.

Please note that in providing you with certain draft templates for your use, we do not, under any circumstances, provide legal advice and we strongly recommend that you consider taking up such advice when preparing the necessary contractual documentation to complete your transaction.
