We are talking to more and more contractors who are selling parts of their business—or even the whole thing—by selling shares of their companies to unwitting buyers via the transfer of shares of company stock, without properly addressing the reassignment of their operating agreement. There is a thought process, possibly being fueled by some unscrupulous brokers,  that is leading some to think that, *"The company name isn't changing, so why does it matter?"* But in the eyes of the contract, it matters a lot. We’ve seen people put their entire business at risk because they didn't realize that changing who **owns** the company is just as big a deal as changing who **drives** the trucks. **Wait! Read This First:** \> Before we dive in, let’s get one thing straight: **We are not attorneys.** We don't work for FedEx, and we aren't here to give you legal advice or tell you exactly how FedEx will act. We are just a team that has spent years in the trenches with contractors like you. We’ve seen almost every situation you can imagine, and we want to share what we’ve learned so you don’t make a costly mistake. We aren't here to scare you, but we do want to wake you up. Whether you’ve been a contractor for ten years or you are looking to buy your very first operation, you need to understand that you can’t just "hand off" this business like a relay baton. There is a specific process you have to follow, or you might find yourself owning a company that no longer has a contract to operate.
