According to the first paragraph of Article 72 of the Company Law, shareholders of a limited liability company may transfer all or part of their shares to each other.

It is legal for minority shareholders to transfer shares to collective shares (generally in the name of employee stock ownership association) by means of equity transfer.
However, limited liability companies are subject to more restrictions on the external transfer of equity:
(1) With the consent of more than half of the other shareholders, the shareholders shall notify the other shareholders in writing about the transfer of their shares for approval. If the other shareholders fail to reply within 30 days from the date of receiving the written notice, they shall be deemed to agree to the transfer. If more than half of the other shareholders do not agree to the transfer, the shareholders who do not agree shall purchase the transferred equity; Do not buy, as agreed to transfer. ?
(2) When the people's court transfers the shareholders' equity in accordance with the compulsory execution procedures prescribed by law, it shall notify the company and all shareholders, and other shareholders shall have the preemptive right under the same conditions. Other shareholders who fail to exercise the preemptive right within 20 days from the date of notification by the people's court shall be deemed to have given up the preemptive right.
