The Restricted Stock Agreement is utilized when a company wishes to grant actual shares of company stock to employees or service providers as part of their compensation package, subject to certain restrictions and vesting conditions. This document, governed by Danish law, serves as a critical tool for companies looking to align employee interests with company success and create long-term retention incentives. The agreement details the grant terms, vesting schedule, transfer restrictions, and tax implications under Danish law, ensuring compliance with the Danish Companies Act, Stock Options Act, and relevant tax regulations. It's particularly relevant for startups, growth companies, and established corporations implementing equity-based compensation programs in Denmark. The agreement typically forms part of a broader equity incentive plan and must account for specific Danish legal requirements regarding share-based compensation, corporate governance, and shareholder rights.
