Letter of Undertaking Seller's Solicitors

Share sale agreements usually state that the purchase price will be paid at completion, but this may not always be possible because many completions take place outside normal banking hours. This Letter of undertaking from Seller's solicitors re completion monies (Share Sale) should be used when the Buyer or the Buyer’s Solicitors have transferred the completion monies to the Seller’s solicitors ahead of completion. The document is an undertaking given by the Seller’s solicitors that they hold the completion monies to the Buyer’s order but will automatically be released from the undertaking when completion takes place. At completion, the monies will be held to the Seller’s order. The Sellers’ solicitors undertake to pay interest to the Buyer for the days they hold the completion monies to the Buyer’s order.
