How to sell corporate rights

Reading time: 5 min.

The sale of corporate rights is a complex legal process that requires compliance with statutory procedures.

This procedure may vary by jurisdiction, type of corporation, and terms of sale.

Typically, the sale of corporate rights involves several key steps.

Understanding rights and limitations:

First of all, the seller should thoroughly familiarize himself with the corporation's charter and the legislation governing the process of selling corporate rights.

Some companies may have restrictions or conditions on the sale of corporate rights. For example, there may be conditions on prior notice to other shareholders or possible restrictions on resale.

Decision making:

The sale of corporate rights may require the adoption of a special decision by the company's management bodies.

This may mean holding a meeting of shareholders or approving a resolution by the company's board of directors.

Setting the price and terms:

After making the decision to sell, it is important to determine the price and terms of the deal.

This may include determining the value of the corporate rights, the payment schedule, the terms of the transfer of ownership, and other details of the agreement.

Preparation of the agreement:

Having received an agreement on the price and terms, it is necessary to prepare a legal contract for the sale of corporate rights.

This document should clearly reflect the terms of the agreement, the rights and obligations of the parties, as well as the terms of payment.

Conclusion of the agreement and registration:

After agreeing on the conditions and signing the contract, an agreement on the sale of corporate rights is concluded.

This step may include the transfer of ownership, registration of changes with the relevant authorities, and amendments to the company's articles of association.

Compliance with tax and other obligations:

The sale of corporate rights may have tax consequences. It is important to consult with tax professionals to determine your tax obligations and meet them in a timely manner.

Notification of the parties:

The final step is to notify all interested parties about the sale of corporate rights.

This may include communications to corporate bodies, regulators, other shareholders, or stakeholders.

The sale of corporate rights is a complex process that requires attention to detail and compliance with legal requirements. It is best to conduct it with the participation of legal consultants and specialists in the field of corporate law to avoid possible legal problems in the future.

After the steps described in this article, there are several key documents that must be prepared for a successful sale of corporate rights.

Documents that usually include:

  • Agreement on the sale of corporate rights:

This document contains the basic terms of the agreement, such as the price, payment terms, date and process of transfer of ownership, guarantees regarding ownership rights, etc.

  • Minutes of decisions of management bodies:

If the sale of corporate rights requires the approval of the board of directors or a meeting of shareholders, this protocol demonstrates the approval of the sale decision.

  • Ownership documents:

This may include company shares, title deeds, sales agreements, or other documents that prove ownership of corporate rights.

  • Sales permit:

In some cases, especially in areas subject to the regulation of special bodies or requiring permission to sell, an appropriate document or permit may be required.

  • Notary certificate:

To confirm the legality of the agreement, it is necessary to notarize the contract of purchase and sale of corporate rights.

Final steps:

  • Transfer of documents:

After signing the agreement and preparing all the necessary documents, they are transferred to the new owner of corporate rights.

  • Registration of changes:

Some jurisdictions require registration of changes with the relevant authorities. This may include filing an application or other documents to amend the company's registration documents.

  • Taxation:

After a successful sale, you need to consider the tax consequences. Calculation of taxes and their submission to the relevant authorities is an important stage.

  • Notification of interested parties:

Notifying corporate bodies, shareholders, and other stakeholders about the sale to ensure legal transparency and compliance.
