CORPORATE STOCK REDEMPTION

CORPORATE STOCK REDEMPTION

BUY-SELL AGREEMENT

WHAT IT IS...

A plan to effect the orderly change in the ownership of a close corporation at the death of a stockholder.

It solves the problem of:

  • Creating a market for closely held stock for the surviving family
  • Establishing a price at which the corportation agrees to buy and the stockholders agree to sell their shares
  • Providing the money to fund the plan

The Corporation:

  • Enters into an agreement with the stockholders
  • Purchases, owns and pays the premiums on each stockholder
  • Is named beneficiary of each life insurance contract

HOW IT WORKS
