recapture
Definition
A contract stipulation that permits the seller of an asset to at least partially retrieve asset ownership. For example, the seller of a block of shares could arrange to buy back some shares if he/she wants, or the seller of real estate could gain some of the income generated by the property. The recapture agreement is usually valid only within a specific time period.
