Issuance of shares

A share is issued by a corporation when a person, including an individual or another company, makes a subscription offer to the corporation to become a shareholder, and the corporation accepts the offer. Unlike a share transferred from one person to another, a newly-issued share was not in circulation before it was issued, and its issue “creates” it. To ensure that this transaction is properly monitored, we prepare the legal documentation required to make the issue valid, and once the documents have been signed, we take the necessary administrative steps with the appropriate government corporate registry, if applicable, to take account of this change.

To ensure that this transaction is properly monitored, we prepare the legal documentation required to make the issue valid, and once the documents have been signed, we take the necessary administrative steps with the appropriate government corporate registry, if applicable, to take account of this change.   Since the issuance of shares may have tax consequences, we recommend that you enlist the help of your accountant, tax specialist or appraiser to validate the value at which the shares may be issued and the tax impact of such a transaction. We will need this value in order to complete the drafting of the legal documentation. If necessary, we can refer you to our partner accountants, tax specialists or an appraiser.    What’s included :
  • The necessary legal documents (subscription offer, prospectus exemption, directors’ resolutions, updating of internal registers) generated by our technology;
  • Electronic signature of documents ;
  • Administrative procedures with the appropriate government corporate registry ;
  • Validation of documents by lawyers; and
  • Customer service support.
  Not included:
  • Preparation of accounting or tax opinions or valuation reports; and
  • Adding shareholders to Revenue Canada, Revenue Quebec, bank accounts and social network accounts.

An additional fee of $150 applies for each new issuance, whether it involves a new type of share or an additional shareholder. This fee applies even if you are issuing different types of shares for a single shareholder.

If you are planning more than 5 new issuances, we kindly request that you reach out to our customer service department so that an attorney can manage your entire case.

Lexstart does not comment on the tax impacts of such transactions. When purchasing our Lexstart kits (dissolution, issuance, transfer), it is crucial to consult a professional for the tax and accounting implications. This ensures that you are well informed about the consequences for your business.
