Equity Rollover Clause Samples
An Equity Rollover clause allows certain stakeholders, typically existing owners or management, to reinvest a portion of their proceeds from the sale of a company into the equity of the acquiring entity. In practice, this means that instead of receiving all cash at closing, these stakeholders retain an ownership interest in the new, combined business, aligning their interests with the buyer and the future success of the company. The core function of this clause is to facilitate continued involvement and incentivize performance post-transaction, while also helping buyers manage cash outflows and maintain key relationships.
