FAQ
How do you address Right of First Refusal (ROFR) issues?
I incorporate standard waiver language and board approval clauses that ensure compliance with existing Shareholder Agreements or Bylaws before the transfer closes.
Does this include Regulation D or private placement securities disclaimers?
Yes. I include standard private company investor accreditation representations and investment intent warranties to maintain applicable federal securities exemptions.
What if the shares are subject to unvested founder restrictions?
Let me know during onboarding. I will draft acceleration waivers or transfer restrictions that account for restricted stock agreements and 83(b) elections.
Are spousal consents necessary for private stock transfers?
In community property states (e.g., California, Texas, Washington), spousal consent is vital to eliminate future marital claims over transferred shares. I provide this document.
Can this contract handle deferred payments or promissory notes?
Yes. Standard and Premium tiers can include seller note integration, deferred payout milestones, or escrow release provisions.
