A spouse may not, under the penalty provided for in article 1427, use joint property to make a contribution to a company or acquire non-negotiable company shares without his or her spouse having been notified and without this being justified in the deed.
The status of partner is recognised in whichever of the spouses makes the contribution or carries out the acquisition.
Spouse who has notified the company of his intention to become a partner personally is also recognised as a partner for half of the shares subscribed or acquired. Where he notifies his intention at the time of the contribution or acquisition, the acceptance or approval of the partners is valid for both spouses. If this notification is subsequent to the contribution or acquisition, the approval clauses provided for this purpose by the Articles of Association may be invoked against the spouse; when the approval is deliberated, the partner spouse does not take part in the vote and his or her shares are not taken into account for the calculation of the quorum and majority.
The provisions of this article apply only in companies whose shares are not negotiable and only until the dissolution of the community.
