I am writing in response to your previous offer regarding the proposed purchase of stock in [Company Name]. After careful consideration and evaluation of the terms stated in your proposal, I would like to submit a counterproposal for your consideration. Firstly, I appreciate your interest in acquiring stock in our company and acknowledge the value it could add to both parties involved. However, upon careful review of the terms and conditions put forth in your initial offer, I would like to propose the following modifications: 1. Purchase Price: The purchase price stated in your offer of [Amount] seems rather low in comparison to the current market value of the company's stock. In light of this, I propose an adjusted purchase price of [New Amount] per share, which is more reflective of the company's recent financial performance and growth prospects. 2. Payment Terms and Schedule: Your proposed payment terms require a lump-sum payment upon signing the agreement. While I understand the need for upfront payment, I suggest spreading the payment over a mutually agreed-upon period, such as [Number of] months or quarters, which would provide more flexibility to both parties involved. 3. Additional Considerations: In order to proceed with the purchase, I would like certain additional considerations to be addressed. These include: a. Minority Shareholder Rights: I request the inclusion of provisions that safeguard minority shareholder rights and ensure their fair treatment. b. Future Governance: As a potential shareholder, I believe it is crucial to have representation on the company's board of directors or at least regular updates on important matters affecting the company's performance and strategic direction. c. Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure: I propose the inclusion of a robust confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement to protect sensitive information about the company and its stakeholders during discussions and negotiations. I believe these counterproposals align better with the current market conditions and the future aspirations of both parties. I am open to further negotiation and discussion to reach a mutually beneficial agreement. Furthermore, I kindly request your prompt response to this counterproposal to expedite the decision-making process. Thank you for considering my counterproposal. I remain optimistic about the potential collaboration and eagerly await your response. Feel free to contact me at [Phone Number] or [Email Address] to discuss any further details. Sincerely, [Your Name]
