What is a Shareholder subscription Agreement?
A Shareholder Subscription Agreement (SSA) is a legal contract between a company and an investor that formalizes the subscription and issuance of shares. It outlines the number and type of shares being subscribed, the subscription price, payment terms, and the rights and obligations attached to those shares.
This agreement ensures that capital is raised legally, transparently, and with full protection for both the company and the incoming shareholders.
