September 2026 | Earnouts, Rollovers & Seller Notes in 2026: Structuring and Negotiating the Deal Earnouts, seller notes, and rollover equity are becoming increasingly common in middle-market transactions as buyers and sellers look for ways to bridge valuation and financing gaps. When structured effectively, these tools can help move a deal forward. When the terms are unclear or poorly aligned, they can lead to missed payments, unexpected risk, and post-closing disputes. This webinar will explore how earnouts, seller notes, and rollover equity are being used in today’s market. The session will cover negotiation strategies and the practical drafting issues that dealmakers should coordinate with legal counsel, including performance metrics, operating covenants, control rights, security, subordination, set-off rights, and remedies. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of when these structures can support a transaction, when they may create more risk than value, and how to develop terms that are enforceable, financeable, and acceptable to sellers, lenders, and investment committees.
