The Shareholder Subscription Agreement is a crucial document used when a company seeks to issue new shares to investors or existing shareholders under German law. It is commonly used in various corporate scenarios including capital raises, employee stock programs, and strategic investments. The agreement must comply with German corporate law requirements, particularly the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG) for AGs and the Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbHG) for GmbHs. The document outlines all essential aspects of the share subscription, including share details, pricing, warranties, and completion mechanics. It serves as both a binding contract and a record of the transaction, often requiring registration with German commercial registers.
