Any book recommendations on Clinical Trial Agreements?

Working on a deal where buyer's side keeps on insisting on a POA to effectuate all actions of Seller under the agreement, including executing documents.

I have an asset purchase of a retail store transaction. Seller is keeping the second location. Seller is licensing the name from the buyer.

I know very little about antitrust. Can anyone give me some suggestions how to enforceably draft this agreement, or is this arrangement impossible?

Also, are there any provisions you’d consider absolutely crucial from the owner’s side?
