Description

This form is a Voting Trust Agreement. The form provides that the shareholder has issued certficates for all common stock which will be placed in the care of the depositary in the name of the voting trustees. The form also provides that the agreement may be executed in several counterparts. The Georgia Voting Trust Agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions for transferring voting rights of a shareholder to a voting trustee. This agreement mandates that the shareholder's issued certificates are placed in the custody of the depository, who acts on behalf of the voting trustees. By entrusting these certificates to the voting trustees, the shareholder temporarily relinquishes their voting rights and grants the trustees the authority to exercise these rights at their discretion. There are two main types of Georgia Voting Trust Agreements: 1. Revocable Voting Trust Agreement: In this arrangement, the shareholder retains the ability to revoke or modify the trust agreement at any time. The trust can be dissolved, and the certificates can be returned to the shareholder, allowing them to resume their voting rights. This type of trust provides flexibility and allows the shareholder to have greater control over their shares. 2. Irrevocable Voting Trust Agreement: As the name suggests, this type of trust cannot be terminated or revoked by the shareholder once it becomes effective. Once the certificates are transferred to the voting trustees, the shareholder permanently loses their voting rights until a specified event triggers the termination of the trust. Such events may include the expiration of a predetermined time period, the occurrence of a certain condition, or the death or incapacity of the shareholder. The Georgia Voting Trust Agreement is a useful tool in various scenarios, such as when consolidating voting rights for an entity, ensuring voting continuity during an acquisition, or safeguarding against potential conflicts of interest. By legally transferring and centralizing voting rights, these agreements offer a level of control and stability to both shareholders and voting trustees.
