Shareholder Agreement Attorneys in Oklahoma

A shareholder agreement is a contract between the shareholders that governs the ownership and disposition of stock in a corporation. These useful agreements provide a mechanism to allow shareholders to participate in the offering of new shares or the purchase of shares from a shareholder who is leaving. Shareholder agreements may also be used to establish how a company is controlled, to determine the voting rights of certain shares, and to define “drag-along” and “tag-along” rights (provisions governing the shareholders’ rights to participate when a transfer of stock occurs).
