Option to Purchase Shares Clause Samples

The "Option to Purchase Shares" clause grants a party the right, but not the obligation, to buy a specified number of shares in a company under predetermined terms and conditions. Typically, this clause outlines the timeframe during which the option can be exercised, the price per share, and any conditions that must be met before the purchase can occur. Its core practical function is to provide flexibility and certainty for both parties: the option holder gains the opportunity to invest in the company at a known price, while the company or existing shareholders can plan for potential changes in ownership structure.
