Comprehending the Lease Agreement Procedure (Leasehold premises only)

One crucial aspect of selling a pharmacy is negotiating the terms of the lease, as this can greatly impact the future operations of the business.

  • Lease Transfer and Assignment: It is essential to clearly outline the terms for transferring or assigning the current lease to prevent any legal issues.
  • Lease Conditions and Rent Deposit: Securing favourable terms for the rent deposit through negotiation can have a significant financial impact on the transition process.

 

Creating a strong pharmacy business sale agreement

This is crucial as it legally binds both parties to the agreed-upon terms.

  1. To safeguard the pharmacy’s market position, include restrictive covenants that prevent the seller from starting competing businesses in the vicinity.
  2. Clearly outline warranties and indemnities to address any potential disputes or claims after the sale has been completed.

Note: Use a specialist healthcare lawyer, don’t try and do it on your own!

 

Planning Financial Agreements

Financial terms must be transparent and advantageous for both parties involved.

  • Adjustments to the Completion Account should accurately represent the pharmacy’s financial situation during the sale. Your accountant will help with this.
  • Guarantee Provisions should specify any assurances provided by the seller regarding the pharmacy’s operational condition.
