Assumed Liabilities Sample Clauses
The "Assumed Liabilities" clause defines which specific debts, obligations, or responsibilities the buyer agrees to take on from the seller in a transaction, such as an asset purchase. Typically, this clause lists or describes the liabilities that will transfer to the buyer, which may include certain contracts, outstanding payments, or ongoing service obligations, while excluding others that remain with the seller. Its core practical function is to clearly allocate responsibility for existing and future liabilities, thereby preventing disputes over who is accountable for particular obligations after the transaction closes.
