Justee's AI-powered letter of intent review tool analyzes M&A, real estate, and commercial LOIs for binding/non-binding clarity, exclusivity scope, confidentiality, expense allocation, and substantive deal terms. The tool flags LOIs that label themselves "non-binding" but contain binding exclusivity, confidentiality, expense, or governing-law provisions — and identifies the cases where Delaware's SIGA Technologies decision could create good-faith obligations even on "non-binding" terms. Justee maps each substantive term against M&A standards (purchase price, structure, indemnity, escrow, closing conditions) and real-estate standards (price, financing, contingencies, deposit). Letters of intent set the negotiating frame and frequently lock in unfavorable terms before lawyers join. Common LOI mistakes include exclusivity periods longer than diligence requires, expense-shifting clauses that survive deal failure, and LOIs that omit core economics, ensuring later renegotiation. Professional LOI review preserves leverage.

Justee recently analyzed a 4-page LOI labeled "Non-Binding" with $42M cash purchase price for a founder receiving an acquisition LOI from a strategic buyer for her bootstrapped DTC company.
Issue Found: Despite the "Non-Binding" header, the LOI contained a 90-day exclusivity period, $250k expense reimbursement on deal failure, and a Delaware governing-law clause — all binding. The exclusivity period exceeded the buyer's actual diligence needs by 6 weeks.
Justee Recommendation: We shortened exclusivity to 45 days with a 30-day extension only if buyer was actively in confirmatory diligence, capped expense reimbursement at $50k and only on buyer-caused break, and added a "go-shop" tail-out provision allowing solicitation of competing bids in the final 10 days.
"Seller agrees that for ninety (90) days from the Effective Date Seller shall not solicit, negotiate, or accept any offer regarding the Company."
"Seller agrees that for forty-five (45) days from the Effective Date Seller shall not solicit competing offers, with one thirty (30) day extension automatically available only if Buyer is actively engaged in confirmatory due diligence as evidenced by ongoing data-room access. After day seventy-five (75), exclusivity terminates automatically."
Why it matters: Long exclusivity periods give buyers free option value at the seller's expense. Tying extensions to actual diligence activity prevents stalling and preserves the seller's ability to find an alternative if the deal cools.
