Agreements 

 

Our work shall start with Term Sheet and continue till signing of agreements, A Term Sheet (TS) is a non-binding agreement that outlines the basic terms and conditions of an investment (typically in bullet points). This is the first document signed by the prospective investor to show his willingness to invest in the company. It normally gives details about funding, rights & obligations of each party, corporate governance mechanism, exit strategy, etc. The TS acts as a guiding principle on the basis of which all the subsequent agreements (like Shareholders Agreement, Share Subscription Agreement, etc.) will be drafted and executed. Management should not sign any TS in a hurry – rather a well negotiated and understood TS goes a long way in protecting the interest of the entrepreneur. Post Terms Sheet, various agreements needs to be signed, if both the parties have agreed and things are moving ahead. There are various key legal agreements which need to be executed between the Entrepreneur (in his personal capacity), Investor and the Investee company – like Shareholders Agreement (SHA), Share Subscription Agreement (SSA), Share Purchase Agreement (SPA), etc. These legal agreements will be the final reference point for resolving all disputes which may arise in future between the parties. On execution, these Agreements supersede all earlier agreements like Term Sheet, etc.

Important definitions

Agreements

Some Important definitions used in Accounting Entries are:

Term Sheet

A term sheet is a non-binding document that outlines the main terms and conditions of a proposed business agreement between two parties. It serves as a roadmap for negotiations and helps both parties to understand the key points of the proposed agreement before drafting a more detailed and formal contract.

Due Diligence

Due diligence is a comprehensive and systematic review and investigation of a person, organization, or business before entering into a transaction, investment, or partnership. The purpose of due diligence is to verify the accuracy of the information provided by the other party and to ensure that the risks and benefits of the proposed transaction are fully understood.

Shareholders' Agreement

A shareholders' agreement is a legal contract between the shareholders of a company that sets out the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of each shareholder. It is a private agreement that is not typically filed with government authorities and is not available to the public. The shareholders' agreement is designed to protect the interests of all shareholders and to prevent disputes and conflicts between them.

Post Disbursal Compliance

Post disbursal compliance refers to the set of activities and procedures that an investor or financial institution undertakes after disbursing funds to an Entity. The purpose of post disbursal compliance is to ensure that the borrower / investee company continues to meet the terms and conditions of the loan or financing agreement.
