The Transition Services Agreement (TSA) is a crucial document used in corporate restructuring scenarios where continuous service provision is necessary after a transaction. It is particularly relevant in Malta's business environment, where companies must comply with both local and EU regulations. This agreement type is commonly used following mergers, acquisitions, or divestitures, ensuring business continuity while the separated entity establishes its own operational capabilities. The document typically includes detailed service descriptions, performance standards, pricing mechanisms, and transition timelines, while addressing specific Maltese legal requirements regarding data protection, employment, and commercial relationships. It serves as a bridge between the transaction closing and the recipient entity's full operational independence, with provisions carefully structured to protect both parties' interests under Maltese jurisdiction.
