SPA Clause by Clause

About this training

(1 customer review)

This video course takes you through each of the clauses of a Sale and Purchase Agreement in a typical M&A deal, discusses what the clauses do, and what some of the more complex wording means. It addresses the typical issues that are negotiated between the Buyer and the Seller, the points they typically make, and why they make them.

It is a comprehensive analysis with 86 ‘modules’ that deal with a specific clause and clusters of issues within the clauses.

The format of video presentations allows you to view it in your own time and at your own pace. You can pause or take a break and go back over content if you didn’t catch it the first time.

Your references:

the way you presented the SPA, topic by topic, clause by clause, gave me the opportunity to choose in how much in depth I want to go with one or more topics. This form of presenting your knowledge gave me a chance to go back (as many times as I found it necessary) to any of the topics you covered and try to capture more aspects than it could have been possible via one straight “start-to-end” training session
