Document background
A Share Buyout Agreement is a crucial document used when one or more shareholders wish to sell their stake in a company to another party. Under Singapore law, this agreement serves as the primary instrument for executing share transfers, ensuring compliance with the Companies Act and related legislation. The document typically includes detailed provisions about the transaction structure, valuation, warranties, and post-completion obligations. It's particularly important in private company contexts where shares aren't freely tradeable and specific terms need to be negotiated between parties.
