Document background
The Private Placement Contract is essential for companies seeking to raise capital through private offerings in the Netherlands without undertaking a public offering. This document is typically used when companies wish to issue securities to a limited number of qualified investors, often falling under exemptions provided by the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (Wft). The agreement must comply with both Dutch national law and European Union regulations, including the EU Prospectus Regulation and its exemptions. The Private Placement Contract includes crucial information about the securities being offered, detailed subscription terms, investor qualifications, transfer restrictions, and various investor rights and protections. It's particularly valuable for growing companies, scale-ups, and established businesses seeking additional capital from sophisticated investors while maintaining confidentiality and avoiding the more stringent requirements of public offerings.
