Procedures for Partner Exit A partner may withdraw by written waiver, provided they notify the company\u2019s manager and all other partners. The withdrawing partner must fulfill all conditions set out in the Articles of Association. The Articles of Association must be amended to reflect the partner\u2019s exit or waiver of shares. Profits and capital must be reallocated among the remaining partners per the amended Articles. If the partners consent, the company may redeem the exiting partner\u2019s shares at their real value. Company capital must be reduced by the nominal value of the redeemed shares. Each remaining partner may claim their proportional share of the exited partner\u2019s capital contribution. If exit occurs at year-end, the departing partner is entitled to their full share of that year\u2019s profits and capital; exits at the beginning or mid-year are calculated on a pro-rata basis. All partners must approve and sign the amendment to the Articles following exit. Alsubaie Law Firm will handle every procedural step on your behalf. Conditions for Partner Exit Submit an exit application via the Ministry of Commerce &amp; Industry\u2019s online portal. Within 30 days, lodge the General Assembly\u2019s meeting minutes approving the exit. Print and sign a formal letter addressed to the Ministry of Justice. Amend the Articles of Association and register the amendment in the Commercial Register. If shares are waived to other partners, attach a written waiver from all parties.
