Seller Release Sample Clauses
A Seller Release clause serves to discharge the seller from certain claims, liabilities, or obligations related to the transaction after closing. Typically, this clause specifies the scope of the release, such as covering all known and unknown claims arising from the sale, and may require the buyer to formally acknowledge that they will not pursue further action against the seller for matters covered by the release. Its core practical function is to provide the seller with legal protection and finality, ensuring that once the transaction is complete, the seller is not exposed to ongoing or future disputes related to the sale.
