Withdrawal of the founder from the NPO. Application for resignation from the founders of a non-profit organization

First of all, we note that an autonomous non-profit organization (hereinafter also referred to as ANO) is created on the basis of property contributions from citizens and (or) legal entities a unitary non-profit organization that does not have membership (Civil Code of the Russian Federation, Federal Law dated January 12, 1996 No. 7-FZ “On Non-Profit Organizations” (hereinafter referred to as Law No. 7-FZ)). At the same time, the founders of the ANO do not retain rights to the property they transferred into the ownership of this organization and are not responsible for its obligations, and it is not responsible for the obligations of its founders (Civil Code of the Russian Federation, Law No. 7-FZ).
The ability of a citizen or legal entity to leave the founders of an autonomous non-profit organization at any time is directly provided for by the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and Law No. 7-FZ. However, in this case, obtaining the consent of other ANO participants is not required. Certain restrictions are established only for those cases when the retiring founder of an ANO is the last or only one: before sending information about his exit, he is obliged to transfer his rights as a founder and (or) participant to another person in accordance with federal law and the charter of the ANO.
According to Law No. 7-FZ and Federal Law of 08.08.2001 No. 129-FZ “On State Registration of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs”, in order to leave the founders of an autonomous non-profit organization, a person must send an application to the registration authority to make changes to the unified state register of legal entities ( hereinafter referred to as the Unified State Register of Legal Entities). Such an application is drawn up in form N P14001, approved by the Federal Tax Service dated January 25, 2012 N ММВ-7-6/25@, and, within the meaning of Law No. 7-FZ, is submitted to the territorial body of the Federal Tax Service at the place of registration of the autonomous non-profit organization (see also clarifications of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation dated 08.12 .2016 (you can read the text of this clarification by following the link to the Internet address http://www.gestion.ru/images/minust.pdf)). Simultaneously with the submission of this application, a person leaving the founders of the ANO must send a notice of this to the ANO itself (Law No. 7-FZ).
The withdrawal of a person from the founders of an autonomous non-profit organization is considered to have taken place from the moment the information about such a person as a founder is excluded from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.
We note, however, that the above procedure for leaving the founders of an autonomous non-profit organization applies only if information about the founders of such an organization is contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. Otherwise, withdrawal must be carried out in the manner established by the charter of the ANO (see letter of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation dated March 24, 2016 N 11/32870-SG).
As for the resignation of a person from his post general director ANO, it is necessary to keep in mind that neither the Civil Code of the Russian Federation nor No. 7-FZ regulate the procedure for terminating the powers of the specified body, including by the will of the person elected to this position by the founders. In this regard, in this case one should be guided by the provisions of the ANO charter.
However, it should also be taken into account that the general director of the ANO, as its sole executive body (Civil Code of the Russian Federation), is at the same time an employee of the specified organization (part six and the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). In turn, from part one of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation it follows that an employment contract with an employee holding the position of head of an organization can be terminated on the grounds provided for by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. And one of these grounds, by virtue of clause 3 of part one and the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, is the employee’s will to terminate labor relations. Moreover, in accordance with part one of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the employee must notify the employer of his desire no later than two weeks before the expected day of termination employment contract. Upon expiration of the notice period for dismissal, the employee has the right to stop working (part five of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). The employer has no right to prevent such dismissal.
Thus, the above norms indicate that the powers of the general director of ANO are in any case considered terminated if he submits a letter of resignation to the founders of the company due to at will and after a two-week period from the date of filing, if an earlier date of termination of the employment contract was not agreed upon by the general director and the founders (part two of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

Change of founders in ANO

During the reform of civil legislation in September 2014. in accordance with Federal Law dated 05.05.2014 No. 99-FZ “On Amendments to Chapter 4 of Part One of the Civil Code Russian Federation and on the recognition as invalid of certain provisions of legislative acts of the Russian Federation" has changed legal regulation activities of non-profit organizations.

The law took into account and settled the issue of the number of founders of the autonomous non-profit organization(ANO). In paragraph 1 of Art. 123.24 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation there is a direct indication that such an organization can be created not only by several persons, but also by one person, that is, a single founder. The Civil Code of the Russian Federation provides for the right of ANO to conduct entrepreneurial activity necessary to achieve the goals for which it was created and consistent with these goals.

To conduct such activities, an organization can create business societies and participate in them, clause 5 of Art. 123.24 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and others. The organizational and legal form as an Autonomous non-profit organization has undergone changes regarding the composition of the founders of the autonomous non-profit organization.

Previously, changing the composition of founders in an autonomous non-profit organization was not allowed by law. Now, paragraph 6 of Article 123.24 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation establishes that a person can, at his own discretion, withdraw from the founders of an autonomous non-profit organization by sending information about his withdrawal in accordance with the Federal Law “On State Registration of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs” (N 129-FZ) to the registration authority.

In case of withdrawal from the founders of the latter or sole founder he is obliged, before sending information about his withdrawal, to transfer his rights as a founder to another person in accordance with the law and the charter. And also, by decision of the founders of the ANO, adopted unanimously, new persons can be accepted into its composition of its founders.

In accordance with the Civil Code and Federal Law N 129-FZ, the constituent documents of non-profit organizations must be brought into compliance with the provisions of the above laws when changes are first made to the constituent documents of non-profit organizations.

Approximate actions with one founder in an autonomous non-profit organization:

To register changes relating to a change of founders, it is necessary to carry out these changes in two stages of registration, if the charter of the autonomous non-profit organization is not brought to the norms of the law.

At the first stage, for state registration of changes in information about another founder, it is necessary to prepare a new edition of the Charter, which must contain all the provisions and articles of the Charter in accordance with the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (the Charter must be anonymized), and also prepare a decision of the sole founder on approval of the new edition of the Charter and on the entry of a new founder.

The new founder must submit to the ANO his application for membership. Based on this, the ANO prepares form P13001 to reflect the above changes in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (documents are submitted to the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation).

The following documents are submitted to the Ministry of Justice:
1) Application P13001, 2 copies in total, of which 1 copy. application notarized by the applicant (director/general director, i.e. head of the organization), and another copy. sewn and signed by him.
2) Charter - 3 copies.
3) Decision of the founder - 2 copies.
4) Application for membership in the founders – 2 copies.
5) State duty in the amount of 800 rubles.
6) Power of attorney for a representative, notarized.

+ The Ministry of Justice sometimes demands the return of the charter in the previous edition

After registration of the above changes, information about the two founders will be reflected in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, but will not be included in the new version of the Charter.

Next, in order for a participant to leave the membership, it is necessary to prepare the second stage of changes. At the Second stage, prepare and submit:
1) participant’s statement about leaving the ANO participants – 2 copies.
2) form P14001, only 2 copies, of which 1 copy. application notarized by the applicant (director/general director, i.e. head of the organization), and another copy. signed by him.
3) The decision of the remaining founder on the adopted changes - 2 copies.
4) Power of attorney for a representative, notarized.
+ 2 receipts according to their form, can be filled out before submitting.

In accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Justice: in the documents provided for the state. registration, if the number of sheets in one document is more than two, is stitched and certified by the applicant (the head of the organization).

Document requirements and the opportunity itself can change with a click.

Selling a share to a third party Used if you need to not only remove a participant, but also add a new one. Direct sale, as already mentioned, is too expensive, but here you can save a little. The issue of selling a share owned by an LLC to a third party also falls within the competence of the OSU. At the same time, the sale of such a share to a third party should not be prohibited by the charter. The agenda includes the issue of selling the undistributed share to a third party and its price. The remaining participants have the right to buy it; this transaction also does not require notarization. However, then it’s easier to distribute it. Strictly speaking, it would be necessary to draw up an offer to sell a share owned by the company.

Changes in the composition of founders (participants) of non-profit organizations

The actual value of the share of a company participant corresponds to a part of the value of the company's net assets, proportional to the size of his share. The share must be paid! After this, the company must, within 1 year from the date of withdrawal of the participant, decide the fate of the share of the withdrawing participant (distribute among the remaining participants, sell to the same participants, sell to third parties, repay).


And also register all changes that have occurred in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities within 1 month. If you decide not to touch this share for now, but carry out one of the indicated operations later, you will have to first register the withdrawal of the participant and the transfer of the share to the company, and then, after you have done what you decided with it, register this separately.


Therefore, in most cases, all issues with an “orphan” share are resolved immediately. A receipt is immediately issued from the withdrawing participant that he has received the actual part of the share.

Exit of the founder from the LLC

Attention

The option of selling to a 3rd party is possible. The distribution of funds can occur proportionally or disproportionately, taking into account the requirements specified in the charter. The basis for distribution is the protocol (decision) of a group of participants or a single founder.


Certification of documents by a notary and transfer to the Federal Tax Service In the event of a participant leaving the LLC, the following package of papers is transferred to the tax office:
  • Application (Form 14001) for withdrawal of a participant and distribution of shares.
  • Application for exit of the founder.
  • Minutes of the meeting (if distribution of shares and registration occur simultaneously).

Download a sample of filling out form 14001 when a participant leaves. In this case, there is no need to pay the state fee and submit a receipt. The applicant for this type of registration is the general director.

New procedure for the founder to leave a non-profit organization

To make changes to the unified state register of legal entities concerning information about the founders (participants) of non-profit corporations, founders of funds and autonomous non-profit organizations, a person leaving the founders and (or) participants of these legal entities submits an application for amendment to the registration authority into the unified state register of legal entities." Thus, from the above it follows that now, when a founder (participant) leaves an autonomous non-profit organization, fund or non-profit corporation, the signature of this particular founder (participant) is certified by a notary in an application in form P14001, and it is this participant who submits a set of documents to the registration authority (or issues a power of attorney to the representative) to make appropriate changes to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

  • send by mail to the address of the company's location. In this case, the application will be considered delivered, even if it is not received by the company due to circumstances beyond its control or the LLC does not familiarize itself with the application (clause 1 of Article 165.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation);

Change of founders in an NPO, is it possible to remove the founder from the NPO?

Such a requirement is possible if, for example, the company’s charter prohibits the alienation of a share to third parties, and other participants in the company refused to acquire it (Clause 3, Article 93 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). Of course, if there is only one participant, he will not be able to leave the society.
Likewise, the simultaneous withdrawal of several participants of an LLC is not allowed, as a result of which not a single participant will remain in the company (Clause 2, Article 26 of the Federal Law of 02/08/1998 No. 14-FZ). At the same time, the exit of one of the two founders from the LLC is quite legal.

Let us consider step-by-step instructions for the exit of the founder’s LLC in 2018 in the event of the exit of a company participant based on an application. The procedure for a participant to leave the LLC: step-by-step instruction Step 1.


Filing an application to leave the LLC. Federal Law No. 14-FZ of February 8, 1998 and the Civil Code of the Russian Federation do not establish mandatory requirements to the contents of the application for leaving the society.
The source of payment of the actual value of the share is the difference between the value of the LLC's net assets and the size of its authorized capital. If this difference is not enough, the company is obliged to reduce its authorized capital by the missing amount (Clause 8, Article 23 of Federal Law No. 14-FZ of 02/08/1998). Of course, as a result of the reduction, the authorized capital of the LLC cannot be less than the minimum. Let us recall that it is 10,000 rubles (clause 1, article 14 of the Federal Law of 02/08/1998 No. 14-FZ). It must be borne in mind that the LLC does not have the right to pay a participant his share if at the time of payment the company meets the signs of insolvency (bankruptcy) or such signs appear in the LLC as a result of such payment (clause 8 of Art.

This option is possible if a participant is excluded. In practice, in 99% of cases you have to deal with the first option, which we will dwell on in detail. Let's look at how to formalize the withdrawal of a participant from an LLC in this case, and what algorithm to follow.

Preparation of an application The founder of an LLC has the right to leave the company by alienating a share, regardless of the consent of the participants (if this feature is provided for in the charter). The released share is transferred to the company, and the latter pays its actual share.

If there is only one founder in an LLC, his exit is prohibited. By law, at least one participant must remain in the organization.

Otherwise, the company will have to be liquidated and then reopened. If the possibility of exit is specified in the charter, you need to submit an application and describe your desire in it.

Employees of the regional departments of the Ministry of Justice, when reviewing documents on registration of NPOs, require that these sheets be filled out, which causes difficulties in the future when one of the founders wants to leave the management of the NPO, and information about the founders of the existing NPO is not entered into the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

An important nuance should be noted: withdrawal from the membership of the LLC is considered completed only after information about it is officially registered. That's the role former member The LLC is ending, but its other founders are waiting serious job on structural changes.
