What is a Share Purchase Agreement?

A Share Purchase Agreement (or ‘SPA’) sets out the terms and conditions relating to the sale and purchase of shares in a company. This SPA should only be used where the whole share capital in a company is being sold. Share Purchase Agreements are not the same as Asset purchase agreements, in which only assets are bought, as opposed to the whole operating business of the target company.
