The agreement ensures that in the event of the death of one partner, the surviving partner is given the opportunity to purchase the deceased partner's share, fixing a predetermined value for the partnership interest. The purpose of this agreement is to provide a clear and structured mechanism for the orderly transition of ownership and to protect the interests of both partners in the event of a partner's death.
