Description
This template put option agreement is a legally-binding agreement between two parties, the buyer and the seller, governing the terms of a put option. The put option binds two parties to an option to exchange an agreed quantity of assets, for example shares in a company, at a specified price, by a predetermined date, and this template also allows predefined criteria to be specified if necessary. The owner of the put option has the right, but not an obligation, to sell the predefined assets at the agreed price by the future date, while the buyer has the obligation to buy if the seller exercises the option.
A put option such as this is often used to hedge financial risk associated with securities such as shares in a company. This put option agreement template, which is downloadable instantly (no sign-up required), covers all standard put option terms and conditions, for example the put option period, the quantity and price of the assets or securities, and the consideration, as well as some additional clauses, for example the right to exercise parts of the put option over time (rather than in one transaction), the closing terms, and the warranties upon which the put option is being granted. The template put option is designed to be editable and expandable easily if you need to edit or add terms based on specific requirements.

Thought it would be longer than 4 pages for some reason, but it covers everything off and seems pretty good. Concise and accurately worded too.

I am often required to draft contracts for Companies that employ me. When I discovered that it was possible to buy “Template Agreements / Contracts” for as little as £5.99, I simply had to see how credible these contracts would be. This “Put Option Agreement” (although shorter than I would have drafted) is an ideal “Template”, and came with instructions to assist the non-lawyers out there. Top Marks!
