This item is not 19 pages. Outright misstatement. It is actually a 7 page agreement that only deals with one issue- transfer of shares by the selling shareholder. It allows the company a first right of refusal. It does not acccount for possibilities such as retirement, death of a shareholder, or disability. Worst of all – there is no language defining how the shares will be valued. This agreement is useless at best.
I am an attorney. I was very disappointed with this CD and ended up buying the Nolo press Shareholder agreement with CD. Nolo’s agreement was much better and accounted for all of the eventualities that I needed. However, Nolo’s CD language is not correlated to the test boxes in the book. I ended having the secretary retype the entire agreement out of the book, quite time consuming.
