Document background
The Stakeholders Agreement is a crucial document used when multiple parties hold interests in a Dutch company, whether as shareholders, investors, or other stakeholders. It becomes particularly relevant during company formation, investment rounds, or restructuring phases. This agreement, governed by Dutch law and compliant with the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek), provides a comprehensive framework for managing stakeholder relationships, corporate governance, and share ownership. The document typically includes detailed provisions on voting rights, share transfer restrictions, management structure, and dispute resolution mechanisms. It serves as a fundamental instrument for protecting all parties' interests while ensuring smooth company operations and decision-making processes within the Dutch legal context.
