Result: 
The transaction closed once the parties were able to agree on fair and reasonable provisions of the purchase documents.

“Both parties were eager to reach a reasonable agreement, in order to close on the transaction. And through the patient dialogue and creativity of the professionals, the parties were able to allocate the risk in an acceptable way, which ultimately paved the way for a closing.”
