The Legal Risk Score of a Shareholder Accession Deed Template is Low

Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:

  • The new shareholder is solely responsible for all legal and other costs associated with the preparation and execution of the deed, which might impose a financial burden.
  • The new shareholder must comply with the existing shareholders agreement as if they were an original party, which could limit their flexibility or introduce unexpected obligations.
  • The deed is governed by the laws of a specific jurisdiction, which may not be favorable or familiar to the new shareholder, potentially complicating legal matters.
