What the subscription agreement covers
The Arizona share subscription agreement covers the operative sections every private-share issuance needs:
- Subscription terms: the number of shares being subscribed for, the class and series, the price per share, and the total consideration.
- Representations of the corporation: due incorporation, authority to issue, capitalization is as represented, no conflicts with existing agreements, compliance with securities laws.
- Representations of the investor: accredited investor status (or qualifying exemption), no general solicitation, awareness of resale restrictions, holding period acknowledgment.
- Closing conditions: delivery of share certificate or evidence of registration, payment of subscription price, board resolution authorizing issuance, updated register entry.
- Securities exemption recitals: the specific prospectus or registration exemption being relied on for the issuance.
- Post-closing covenants: registration of the investor in the share register, delivery of certificate, any reporting obligations.
ABCA-AZ considerations and securities-law framework
For Arizona corporations under Arizona Business Corporation Act, A.R.S. § 10-101 et seq., the agreement should align with both the corporate statute (authority to issue) and the local securities-exemption framework. Canadian provinces use National Instrument 45-106 prospectus exemptions (typically the accredited-investor exemption under section 2.3 or the offering memorandum exemption under section 2.9). US states use Regulation D (typically Rule 506(b) or 506(c)) plus state-level exemptions. The UK relies on the Financial Promotion Order exemptions under FSMA. The template captures these recitals and the investor's certification of accredited or qualifying status.
Use as a drafting starter, not a closing document
The template is a baseline. For each specific issuance, the corporation should review the representations, the disclosure schedule, and the closing conditions with counsel. The closing checklist (board resolution, register entry, certificate issuance, securities filings) should be tracked separately.
