Case Study
Negotiating A Better Deal

A client came to Revision Legal under an LOI from a large venture capital firm fresh off a $25M Series B funding round. The transaction involved several moving pieces, including varying non-competition agreements and post-Closing consulting arrangements. Despite an apparent imbalance between bargaining positions, Revision Legal’s team negotiated a favorable tiered-indemnification and set-off framework (requiring the buyer to first seek remedy against the selling entity as opposed to rote joint and several liability) and worked out below-market caps and baskets to better mitigate the client’s post-closing risk.

Case Study: Navigating LSA Corporate Compliance

Revision Legal was hired by major ecommerce aggregator to assist in the negotiation of an eight-figure international credit facility. Our team worked closely with the client’s internal and external teams to ensure the client’s US-based entities met the applicable closing conditions under the loan servicing agreement, providing opinion and guidance on matters such as the US-based entitles’ capacity to contract, good standing status, and enforceability of applicable security interests. Working across time zones, Revision Legal’s efforts helped ensure a timely and smooth closing and provided the client confidence that its pre-closing obligations were met.

Case Study: Growing Beyond The FF Round

An up-and-coming aggregator in the bedroom linen market came to Revision Legal for help when it came time to seek additional investment beyond the “friends and family” round. Revision Legal reviewed and revised the client’s existing equity documents, providing insight and expertise to update SAFEs, convertible notes and other corporate documentation in order to provide updated templates and guidance intended to tighten up the client’s overall processes with an eye toward attracting outside investment. Revision Legal continues to serve the client as a trusted legal partner as the client continues to grow and succeed.
