The actual terms should be disclosed and accurately reviewed. Omitting conditions would obscure the transaction.
Keep each payment traceable
Connect the agreement, receipt and funding path. Do not assume a generic description can replace different conditions attached to separate deposits.
The purchase agreement, the target's financial statements and tax returns, its management contracts and payroll records, evidence that the funds are committed and traceable, and organizational documents showing ownership and control. The manufacturing agreement, signed or negotiated customer and distributor agreements, purchase orders, a lease or documented workspace arrangement, employment or contractor agreements, and payment records for each. Collect the executed facility agreement, the schedule of reserved hours, invoices and payment records, storage and equipment arrangements, insurance, and the permissions each party holds. The escrow agreement with its release conditions, the purchase agreement including schedules and amendments, proof of the transfer into escrow, and correspondence showing the consent request is genuinely pending. If a machine was bought with business earnings, a personal loan, a property sale or a family gift, assemble the statements, contracts and tax records that connect that source to the payment. The second half traces commitment: the signed purchase agreement, escrow instructions if used, the closing statement, wire confirmations, and receipts for deposits, equipment, licences, insurance and pre-opening costs.
