When a business is being sold, the following will almost certainly apply, especially if the sale is of the entire share capital of a private company :-
Heads of agreement and deal structure
Business sale contract - key aspects in a share sale/purchase agreement will be warranties and indemnities, any agreed exclusions or restrictions on liability, and generally, the negotiated final position on liabilities and risks.
Disclosure letter - important so that as seller you disclose potential problems and risks which then no longer form part of warranties and indemnities.
Employees - post purchase the buyer will want to ensure that key employees are on side and remain. Other issues that can arise are where you have employee shareholders or employees who have share options.
Tax - what tax will you have to pay on sale and can the deal be structured in any way to mitigate tax?
