SPA, MoU & acquisition agreements / Romania

Romanian SPA, MoU and acquisition agreements

A Romanian share purchase agreement should connect the commercial bargain to verified ownership, project status and completion requirements. We assist buyers and sellers with MoUs, letters of intent, SPAs and the documents needed to implement the transaction.

The decision in front of you

Does the agreement protect the deal you intend to make?

Exclusivity, price milestones and completion conditions can become binding before the project risks are understood. Generic drafting leaves the difficult questions for the moment a deal is under pressure.

Our response

A clear position. A practical next step.

We draft and negotiate MoUs, SPAs and related acquisition documents around the Romanian asset, the diligence findings and your commercial position. We make responsibilities, payment triggers and completion evidence clear before the parties commit.

What we do for you

We agree the depth of the review and the work needed for your decision. The scope can cover the following workstreams.

01

MoU and LOI: decide what is binding

Before exclusivity or a deposit is agreed, identify which provisions are intended to bind the parties. Confidentiality, costs, exclusivity, governing law and dispute clauses need deliberate treatment. The document's title does not settle the effect of its operative wording.

02

Price and development risk

The SPA should state what is acquired, how the price is calculated and when payment becomes due. Deferred payments, escrow, retention, debt adjustments and development milestones need evidence requirements, verification rights and workable consequences for disagreement.

03

Diligence findings and allocation of liability

Known issues should be connected to disclosure, remediation, specific indemnities and the scope of warranties. Liability caps, time limits, claim procedures and recovery security should be negotiated together. A broad warranty is not a substitute for resolving a material defect before completion.

04

Signing, conditions and completion

Separate signing deliverables from conditions precedent and completion actions. Corporate approvals, regulatory clearances, third-party consents, release of security and payment steps need clear responsibility and a completion agenda. Consider how the transaction behaves if a condition is delayed or cannot be satisfied.

05

Energy project SPAs

For solar, wind and BESS SPVs, define project maturity through specific documents and conditions. Land, permits, grid capacity, ANRE status and key contracts should support the milestone and price mechanism. Marketing descriptions such as RTB should not carry the entire contractual definition.

First conversation

Start with the essentials

  • Term sheet, MoU or LOI
  • Draft SPA and disclosure materials
  • Due diligence issue list
  • Ownership and security records
  • Payment and milestone proposal
Begin with a non-confidential summary and your timetable. We agree the document exchange after checking conflicts and the scope of the mandate.

Questions before you instruct us

Is a Romanian MoU always non-binding?

No. Its legal effect depends on the wording, obligations and applicable law. Binding and non-binding provisions should be expressly identified.

Should the SPA be negotiated before diligence ends?

The workstreams can run in parallel, provided findings and disclosure are consistently reflected in the draft before signing and completion.
