The Company Ownership Agreement is a fundamental document used when establishing or restructuring company ownership under German law. It's particularly crucial during company formation, ownership transfers, or when multiple shareholders are involved in a business venture. The agreement must comply with German corporate law requirements, including the Civil Code (BGB), Commercial Code (HGB), and specific business entity laws such as the GmbHG for limited liability companies or AktG for stock corporations. This document typically includes detailed provisions about share ownership, management rights, profit distribution, transfer restrictions, and governance structures. It's essential for protecting shareholder interests, preventing disputes, and ensuring clear guidelines for company operations and decision-making processes.
