Excluded Assets Liabilities

Overview

CaseMark's Excluded Assets & Liabilities skill automates the drafting of categorized APA exhibit schedules that delineate which assets are retained by the seller and which liabilities remain unassumed by the buyer. The AI produces item-level specificity across asset and liability classes, cross-references your principal agreement's defined terms, and generates accompanying representations and miscellaneous provisions. The result is a deal-ready exhibit that accelerates closing preparation and reduces negotiation friction.

Drafting excluded asset and liability schedules for asset purchase agreements is one of the most tedious yet critical tasks in M&A transactions. Associates spend hours manually categorizing retained assets and unassumed liabilities, cross-referencing defined terms, and ensuring nothing material falls through the cracks—all under intense deal timeline pressure.

CaseMark automates this painstaking process by analyzing your APA and asset-liability allocations to produce a fully categorized, item-specific exclusion schedule. The AI handles defined-term cross-referencing, category organization, and representation drafting, letting deal teams focus on negotiation strategy rather than document assembly.

How it works

  1. 1. Upload your draft APA and asset/liability allocation documents

  2. 2. AI analyzes party details, defined terms, and asset-liability classifications

  3. 3. Review the categorized schedule with item-level specificity and cross-references

  4. 4. Export the finalized exhibit in your preferred format (DOCX, PDF)

Questions

What types of asset purchase agreements does this work with?

CaseMark supports APA schedules across industries and deal sizes, from small business acquisitions to large-scale M&A asset sales. The AI adapts category detail and specificity to match the complexity of your transaction.

How does the AI handle defined terms from my principal agreement?

CaseMark automatically identifies and cross-references defined terms from your uploaded APA. Where the principal agreement lacks necessary definitions, the AI drafts local definitions to eliminate interpretive ambiguity.

Can I customize which asset and liability categories are included?

Absolutely. CaseMark generates a comprehensive categorized draft based on your inputs, and you can add, remove, or modify any category—including cash, receivables, IP, real property, employee obligations, and more—before finalizing.

Does the output include seller representations and miscellaneous provisions?

Yes. CaseMark drafts seller representations regarding retained assets and unassumed liabilities, along with standard miscellaneous provisions such as interpretation clauses and controlling-document language.

How does CaseMark ensure nothing material is omitted from the schedule?

The AI cross-references your asset inventory and liability allocation against common APA exclusion categories, flagging potential gaps. However, legal counsel should always perform a final review to confirm completeness for the specific transaction.

Is my deal data secure when using CaseMark?

CaseMark employs enterprise-grade encryption and strict data isolation protocols. Your transaction documents are never used to train models or shared with third parties, ensuring full confidentiality for sensitive M&A materials.
