With T. Eric Blocher & Greg M. Lowe
of
McKonly & Asbury
Many businesses operate under the terms of a
buy-sell agreement. Chances are that, as a business owner, you should have
a buy-sell agreement. It is a prudent business practice. But here is the catch,
most buy-sell agreements don’t work or won’t work as intended. The reasons why
they don’t work are varied but typically include one or more reasons. A
buy-sell agreement is usually ratified when a business begins. It is filed away
and often forgotten.
Over time, the business, its ownership, purpose,
and operations can change. The buy-sell agreement is rarely amended to include
changes addressing these issues. The good news is that it is not too late to
fix your buy-sell agreement!
