HOCHDORF Holding Ltd shares are essentially transferable without restriction. Anyone entered in the shareholder register is a shareholder in relation to the company. The company must be notified of any changes.

The entry in the shareholder register requires proof of the acquisition of ownership of the share in their own name and for their own account. If the purchaser is not prepared to make such a declaration then the Board of Directors can decline entry with voting rights. The entry limit is 15% of the voting rights. If this limit is exceeded, the Board of Directors may refuse registration.
