Re: Letter of Intent
Dear Letter Of Intent Receiver Name :
The following represents a summary of Name Business / Individual 's proposal to Letter Of Intent Receiver Name regarding Description (the "Proposed Transaction"). This letter contains nonbinding provisions of understanding between the parties. Unless otherwise explicitly stated, it does not impose any legal obligations on either party.
The Proposed Transaction requires additional documentation and approvals, including the preparation and approval of one or more final agreements (the "Final Agreements") setting forth the terms of the Proposed Transaction in further detail. Before the Final Agreements are reached, I would like to confirm that we share an understanding of the principal terms and conditions of the Proposed Transaction, and that all parties are willing to proceed in mutual good faith to work toward Final Agreements and a closing consistent with these terms.
Our proposal is as follows:
1. PROPOSED TRANSACTION.

On termination or expiration of this letter, each party shall return all printed information received from the other party in connection with the Proposed Transaction.
5. NOTICE AFTER COMPLETION OF DUE DILIGENCE.
On or before the Due Diligence Completion Date, each party shall notify the other party in writing that it has completed substantial due diligence and is prepared to proceed with consummation of the Proposed Transaction (the "Notice of Intention to Proceed"). If a party does not provide a Notice of Intention to Proceed to the other party on or before the Due Diligence Completion Date, the other party may cancel this proposal and neither party will have any obligation or liability to the other party. The effective date of receipt of a Notice of Intention to Proceed is its date of receipt as acknowledged in writing by the receiving party.

If the Proposed Transaction is not completed by the Closing Date and each party has been operating in good faith to complete its due diligence and negotiate the transaction documents to consummate the Proposed Transaction, the parties shall evaluate the progress made towards closing and, if suitable progress is being made, discuss in good faith a revised Counting Period (as defined below) and Closing Date. If the parties have not made satisfactory progress towards closing, either party may withdraw from the Proposed Transaction without any further obligation or liability to the other party. A party withdrawing from the Proposed Transaction under the preceding sentence shall promptly inform the other party in writing of this withdrawal.
