Close Corporations
A Close Corporation (sometimes referred to as "closely held") can be desirable for a small business. It has three special provisions: the stock of the corporation cannot be traded on a public exchange; the number of stockholders must be specified and cannot be more than 30; and certain limitations may be placed on the transfer of the stock. If you prefer to form a Close Corporation, there is no additional charge. On the order form, please indicate "CLOSE CORPORATION" and provide us with the limitations you want included.
