“Right of first offer”属于私募股权投资人权利中的一种,一般可译为“优先认缴权”或“优先认购权”,指目标公司在新增注册资本时,投资人享有优先认购全部或者部分新增注册资本的权利。A right of first offer is a contractual obligation that allows the right holder to purchase an asset before the owner tries to sell it to someone else. If the right holder is no longer interested in the property, the seller can then sell it to a third party. Rights of first offer are most commonly used in the real estate industry and the sale of businesses.(From Investopedia)


《公司法》第34条对“优先认购权”进行了规定:“股东按照实缴的出资比例分取红利;公司新增资本时,股东有权优先按照实缴的出资比例认缴出资。但是,全体股东约定不按照出资比例分取红利或者不按照出资比例优先认缴出资的除外。”


股东在公司持有股权的比例意味着在公司的“话语权”,公司每一次新增注册资本即意味着原有股东股权比例的摊薄,除非原有股东能持续跟投以维持自身在公司的持股比例。“优先认缴权”设置的原因之一即在于在先股东有权通过追加投资的方式维持在公司的持股比例。此外,也是为了保护中小股东的权益以及提高融资的效率。


除优先认缴权外,私募股权投资人的权利还包括优先购买权(Right of First Refusal)、清算优先权(Liquidation preference)、优先分红权(Dividend Preference)、知情权(Information Right)、共同出售权(Co-Sale Right)、反摊薄条款(Anti-dilution Provision)、对赌协议(Valuation Adjustment Mechanism, VAM)、拖带权(Drag-along Right)、保护性条款(Protective Provision)、回购权(Redemption Rights)、登记权(Registration Rights)等。


以下为相关双语示例:

Waiver of Rights of First Refusal. The Company shall have received all requisite waivers of any rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, co-sale rights, tag-along rights, pre-emptive rights or other contractual participation rights, rights to prior notice or consent or any other similar rights and any other restrictions with respect to the issuance of the Note and the Conversion Shares thereunder.

放弃优先购买权。公司已收到对优先购买权、优先认缴权、共同出售权、拖售权、优先认购权或其他合同参与权、获得事先通知或同意的权利或任何类似权利及与票据发行和票据项下的转换股份有关的任何其他限制的所有必要弃权。
