Stock Purchase Agreement Overview
Summary
The stock purchase agreement involves the sale of shares from a seller to a buyer for $3,000,000, secured by a promissory note and a life insurance policy. The buyer cannot immediately resell the shares due to investment restrictions and must comply with registration or exemption requirements. The agreement includes comprehensive warranties from the seller, ensuring no hidden liabilities. The promissory note specifies high initial payments and default consequences, governed by Florida law. The stock pledge agreement uses shares as collateral, held by an escrow agent, with the seller able to claim shares upon buyer default. Understanding these terms is crucial for both parties involved.Full Conversation
