Tax considerations on a loan agreement—the tax gross up clause
Practice Notes

This Practice Note explains why loan agreements contain a tax gross up and the lender-friendly position that is standard in most loan agreements.

This Practice Note is produced in partnership with Eloise Walker of Pinsent Masons LLP.

Unwinding a share sale—key tax consequences
Unwinding a share sale—key tax consequences
Practice Notes

This Practice Note explores the potential tax consequences of unwinding a share sale. If the unwinding occurs after completion, this involves entering into a new transaction for the sale back of the same shares to the original seller. In the case of a conditional agreement, the transaction may be able to be unwound before the conditions have been satisfied and therefore before completion. This Practice Note is produced in partnership with Eloise Walker of Pinsent Masons LLP.
