In the absence of a valid restriction, a member in an LLC may transfer his/her interest in the LLC (usually expressed in membership units ) to anyone. Restrictions on the transfer of membership units are valid if they are not unreasonable. This form provides that the LLC has the right to purchase a members membership units upon his death. The LLC can fund this transaction through a life insurance policy on the members life with the proceeds going to the LLC. The proceeds will then be used to buy the deceased members membership units.
A restriction on the right to transfer membership units is not effective against a purchaser of the unit unless the purchaser knows of the restriction. Such a restriction can be conspicuously noted on the membership certificates.
This form is set up as a Buy Sell Agreement between the LLC and a key member. It applies in the case of the death, disability, retirement or offer of member to sell his membership units during his lifetime.
This form is a generic example that may be referred to when preparing such a form for your particular state. It is for illustrative purposes only. Local laws should be consulted to determine any specific requirements for such a form in a particular jurisdiction.
