The Transition Services Agreement (TSA) is a critical document used in corporate transactions under Dutch law where one entity needs to provide temporary operational support to another entity, typically following a merger, acquisition, or divestiture. This agreement is essential when the buyer needs the seller's continued support to maintain business operations while developing its own independent capabilities. The TSA defines crucial elements including service scope, performance standards, pricing, duration, and transition milestones, all within the framework of Dutch legal requirements. It addresses key aspects such as data protection under GDPR, employment considerations, intellectual property rights, and operational continuity. The document typically includes detailed schedules for specific service descriptions, service levels, and pricing mechanisms, making it a comprehensive framework for managing the transition period.
