The challenge of drafting purchase price adjustment clauses in merger acquisition contracts Book PDF Summary
Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: The topic of Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) is currently on everyone s lips. No day passes by without reading about a planned or realised M&A transaction in the newspapers. The last few years have been record years for the M&A business. The year 2007 could in fact top the record year of 2006. Although, the first half of 2007 was remarkably successful, the subprime crisis of the credit markets led to a slow-down in the second half.

This makes it hard to determine a precise purchase price that remains valid from the beginning until the end of the transaction process. Since the value of the company changes through this process, the purchase price has to be adjusted. Therefore, purchase price adjustment tools have to be part of the M&A contract to ensure so. Generally, legal counsels are assigned to draft M&A contracts for the parties. Although, an M&A team should consists not only of lawyers, but also of accountants, tax consultants and others, where every member is specialised in a certain field, the legal counsel should have a general overview, since he is the one drafting the contract.
