Confidentiality and Non-disclosure Agreement
(Merger Transaction)


Summary

This template Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement (Merger Transaction), or NDA, is intended to protect the confidential and proprietary information of the seller in an asset or stock sale or merger during the due diligence and negotiation process. This template includes practical guidance and drafting notes. Typically, an NDA is drafted by the seller's counsel and unilaterally protects the confidential information of the selling side only, since only the seller's business and financial information will be reviewed in due diligence. This NDA is drafted to be seller-favorable. This template may be tailored to suit each transaction.
