Share Purchase Agreement

What is meant by Share Purchase Agreement

The share purchase agreement should very clearly set out what is being sold, to whom and for how much, as well as any other obligations and liabilities.

If a company or individual is purchasing or selling shares in the company with another business or person, they require a share purchase agreement. Share purchase agreements are commonly used by Partnership firms when the shares are transferred between partners, and in startups which raise capital by issuing shares to investors.
