Assignment Assumption

Overview

CaseMark's Assignment and Assumption Agreement skill automates the drafting of complete agreements that transfer contractual rights and obligations from assignor to assignee in asset purchase transactions. The AI produces deal-ready documents covering assignment mechanics, liability assumption with precise temporal cutoffs, third-party consent handling, representations and warranties, indemnification, and a fully formatted Exhibit A contract schedule.

Drafting Assignment and Assumption Agreements for asset purchase closings is tedious and error-prone. Attorneys must manually cross-reference the Purchase Agreement, track consent requirements across dozens of contracts, draft precise liability cutoff language, and compile accurate contract schedules — all under tight closing deadlines.

CaseMark automates the entire drafting process by analyzing your executed APA and contract inventory to produce a complete, deal-specific Assignment and Assumption Agreement. The AI handles temporal liability cutoffs, consent provisions, indemnification, and Exhibit A generation so your team can focus on negotiation and review rather than document assembly.

How it works

  1. 1. Upload your executed Purchase Agreement, contract inventory, and party details

  2. 2. AI analyzes the APA structure, consent requirements, and contract schedule

  3. 3. Review and customize the fully drafted Assignment and Assumption Agreement

  4. 4. Export the final document in your preferred format (DOCX, PDF)

Questions

What documents do I need to generate an Assignment and Assumption Agreement?

You'll need the executed Asset Purchase Agreement (APA), a list of contracts to be assigned, and basic party and transaction details including entity names, jurisdictions, effective date, and governing law. CaseMark uses these inputs to produce a comprehensive, deal-specific agreement.

How does CaseMark handle the liability cutoff between assignor and assignee?

CaseMark drafts precise temporal cutoff language so the assignee assumes only obligations arising on or after the effective date. Retained liabilities — including pre-closing breaches, pre-effective date obligations, and APA exclusions — are explicitly carved out to protect both parties.

Can the agreement address contracts that require third-party consent?

Yes. CaseMark includes dedicated consent provisions covering commercially reasonable efforts to obtain consent, conditional assignment effectiveness, and alternative arrangements such as subcontracting or sublicensing if consent is withheld.

Does the output include an Exhibit A contract schedule?

Absolutely. CaseMark generates a formatted Exhibit A listing all assigned contracts based on the inventory you provide, so the schedule is ready for review and execution alongside the main agreement.

Can I customize the representations, warranties, and indemnification sections?

Yes. CaseMark produces fully editable drafts with standard reps, warranties, and indemnification provisions tailored to your transaction. You can modify any section before finalizing and exporting.

Is CaseMark suitable for complex multi-contract asset purchases?

CaseMark is designed to handle transactions involving large contract portfolios. It organizes consent status, structures liability assumptions, and populates the Exhibit A schedule regardless of the number of contracts involved.
