DEAL TERMS

31

CONSIDERATION, REPS, WARRANTIES, & INDEMNITIES

Deal Terms

Bridging the pricing gap

• Shares

• Private Equity Acquirer – almost always required

• Public Company Acquirer – often involves shares

• Private Company Acquirer – seldom involves shares

• Vendor Notes

• Interest typically below subordinated debt market rates

• Security behind senior lenders

32

CONSIDERATION, REPS, WARRANTIES, & INDEMNITIES

Deal Terms

• Earnouts

• Devil is in the detail

• Timeline

• Calculation

• Carry over / cumulative provisions

• Reps, Warranties, & Indemnities

• Convergence between Canadian and U.S. terms

• U.S. is more “seller friendly” (E.g. Indemnity Caps)

• Greater use of reps and warranty insurance

Balancing post-closing risk between Buyers and Sellers
