Share Sale Agreement (Short Form)

A straightforward agreement to buy or sell shares in a private company where the deal is simple and the parties know each other.

Before you start

• Is the short form right for you: the short form suits a straightforward sale of shares in a small company between parties who know the business well. It has no price adjustment, deposit, restraint on the seller competing, earn-out or detailed due diligence process. If the company has employees, leases, debt or significant contracts, or the price is significant, consider the Share Sale Agreement (Full Form) and a lawyer's review.
• Party details: the full names, addresses, emails and ACN or ABN (if any) of the Vendor and the Purchaser.
• Company and shares: the company's full name and ACN, and the number, class and percentage of the shares being sold.
• Price and dates: the price, the date of the agreement and the Completion Date.
