Helpful structure.
Honest boundaries.
This tool organizes information into a general share purchase agreement template. It is not a substitute for transaction-specific legal advice.
A general starting template you can fill in and review with the other party.
Legal advice, a law firm, an attorney-reviewed document, or a guarantee of enforceability.
Ask a qualified lawyer in the relevant jurisdiction to review the terms before anyone signs.
Before you begin
A few things worth knowing.
Does this replace a lawyer?
No. Share sales can involve tax, corporate approvals, transfer restrictions, warranties, and other issues that depend on your facts and jurisdiction. Have qualified counsel review the draft.
Where is my information stored?
Your unfinished draft is saved in local browser storage on this device and is not sent to our server until you pay. At checkout the draft and your delivery email are stored on our server for 30 days, the PDF is held in private storage, and Stripe receives your email and payment details but not the agreement text. See the privacy notice for details. Anyone with access to this browser profile may be able to see it.
Can I use this in any jurisdiction?
The template is general and may not reflect local requirements. The builder asks for a jurisdiction to identify the intended governing law in the draft, but that does not make the document suitable for that jurisdiction.
A good first step
Start with what you know.
