Transfers of shares are a two-step process. The parties sign an Agreement for Assignment Separate from Certificate. Then, at closing, the seller signs an Assignment of Shares to actually convey the stock. The Agreement for Assignment Separate from Certificate should be returned to the Company attorney or Secretary upon completion of a real estate contract. The Assignment of Shares is executed at closing with other closing documents and the transfer fee returned to the Company before Share Certificate transfer will take place.  Please print both forms and review with your attorney and the Title Company.
