Document background
The Stock Issuance Agreement is a fundamental document used when a Belgian company wishes to issue new shares to investors, existing shareholders, or employees. It serves as the primary legal instrument documenting the terms and conditions under which new shares are created and issued, ensuring compliance with the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations. This agreement is typically used during capital raises, employee stock programs, or strategic investments, and must adhere to specific Belgian corporate law requirements regarding share issuance, including notarization requirements for certain types of companies. The document contains essential information about the share class, voting rights, dividend rights, and any transfer restrictions, while also addressing regulatory compliance, tax implications, and shareholder rights under Belgian law.
