Idaho § 30-29-620

• Jurisdiction: Idaho
• Title 30: CORPORATIONS
• Part 6: SHARES AND DISTRIBUTIONS
• Ch. 29: GENERAL BUSINESS CORPORATIONS

Text

(a) A subscription for shares entered into before incorporation is irrevocable for six (6) months unless the subscription agreement provides a longer or shorter period or all the subscribers agree to revocation.
(b) The board of directors may determine the payment terms of subscriptions for shares that were entered into before incorporation, unless the subscription agreement specifies them. A call for payment by the board of directors must be uniform so far as practicable as to all shares of the same class or series, unless the subscription agreement specifies otherwise.
(c) Shares issued pursuant to subscriptions entered into before incorporation are fully paid and nonassessable when the corporation receives the consideration specified in the subscription agreement, provided that such consideration meets the requirements of section 30-29-621 (b), Idaho Code.
(d) If a subscriber defaults in payment of cash or property under a subscription agreement entered into before incorporation, the corporation may collect the amount owed as any other debt. Alternatively, unless the subscription agreement provides otherwise, the corporation may rescind the agreement and may sell the shares if the debt remains unpaid for more than twenty (20) days after the corporation delivers a written demand for payment to the subscriber.
(e) A subscription for stock of a corporation, whether made before or after the formation of a corporation, shall not be enforceable against the subscriber or the corporation, unless in writing and signed by the party to be bound.
