Document background
The Share Contribution Agreement is a crucial document used in Danish corporate transactions where one party (the contributor) transfers shares to another company in exchange for consideration, usually in the form of new shares issued by the receiving company. This type of agreement is commonly used in corporate restructurings, group reorganizations, and investment transactions under Danish law. The document must comply with the Danish Companies Act (Selskabsloven) and related regulations, including requirements for proper valuation, corporate approvals, and documentation. It typically includes detailed provisions on the shares being contributed, valuation methods, warranties about the shares' ownership and condition, tax implications, and completion mechanics. The agreement is particularly important for ensuring proper documentation of the transaction for corporate, tax, and regulatory purposes.
