Description

This form is set up as a Buy Sell Agreement between the Corporation and a key shareholder. It applies in the case of the death, disability, retirement or offer of shareholder to sell the stock during his lifetime. A Pennsylvania Buy-Sell or Stock Purchase Agreement Covering Common Stock in Closely Held Corporation with Option to Fund Purchase through Life Insurance is a legally binding contract that outlines the terms and conditions for the sale and purchase of common stock in a closely held corporation in the state of Pennsylvania. This agreement also includes an option to fund the purchase through the use of life insurance policies. The primary purpose of this agreement is to regulate the transfer of ownership in the closely held corporation, protecting the rights and interests of the existing shareholders and ensuring a smooth transition of ownership in the event of certain triggering events such as death, disability, retirement, or voluntary departure of a shareholder. The agreement typically contains several key provisions, including: 1. Parties Involved: The agreement identifies the parties involved, such as the existing shareholders and the prospective purchasers, and clearly states their roles and responsibilities. 2. Purchase Price: The agreement establishes the purchase price or the method used to determine the price of the common stock. It may outline how the valuation of the stock will be carried out, taking into consideration factors like book value, fair market value, or an independent appraisal. 3. Triggering Events: The agreement specifies the triggering events that would activate the buy-sell provisions, such as the death, disability, retirement, or voluntary departure of a shareholder. It also determines the terms and conditions under which the stock will be purchased or sold. 4. Funding Mechanism: This specific type of agreement includes an option to fund the purchase of shares through life insurance policies. It outlines the details of the life insurance policies, including the insured parties, beneficiaries, coverage amounts, and premium payment obligations. The life insurance proceeds are then used to fund the buyout of the deceased shareholder's stock. 5. Terms of Payment: The agreement covers the terms of payment for the purchased shares, including the payment schedule, interest rates, security interests, and any other arrangements made between the parties. 6. Restrictions on Transfer: To maintain the closely held nature of the corporation, the agreement may include restrictions on the transfer of stock to third parties outside the agreement. This helps ensure that the remaining shareholders have the right of first refusal or the ability to approve or deny any proposed transfers. 7. Dispute Resolution: The agreement typically includes a mechanism for resolving disputes, such as mediation or arbitration, to avoid costly and time-consuming litigation. Different types of Pennsylvania Buy-Sell or Stock Purchase Agreements may vary based on the specific terms and conditions included, the nature of the closely held corporation, and the preferences of the shareholders. The agreement can be customized to meet the unique needs and requirements of the parties involved.
