GLS Deal Shaper (Subscription Agreement)
A tool to drive transaction document efficiencies
The Problem
It takes too long to complete your investment deals.
Related challenges include:
- it is inefficient to draft long form Share Subscription Agreements if the parties are yet to achieve an informed and aligned view of the investment
- if the term sheet says “The Definitive Agreements shall include customary [X]” there will certainly be a long debate when the lawyers start drafting
- each “turn” of a long-form documents costs hundreds of dollars in legal fees
- your team's capacity is stretched
- your business team wants to close deal quicker
- your counterparties have limited &A experience
- your team has limited M&A experience
- long-form drafting is slow and tedious to review and negotiate
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a simple tool that would enable a completed, neatly aligned, full-blown SHA to emerge in a fraction of the time and cost?
