Bankruptcy manager (external manager). Scheme of interaction in the company with the executive director

P signing of documents by representatives of the managing organization performing the functions of the sole executive body legal entity, - the phenomenon is not new, however, it is not so often encountered in practice and mainly in commercial organizations. The transfer of powers of the head of the managing organization or manager takes place, as a rule, in large and medium-sized businesses. Let's consider what powers a managing organization can have, how it exercises them, and, finally, how documents are signed on behalf of the company.

Powers of the managing organization

AT joint-stock companies(JSC) and companies with limited liability(LLC), the legislation provides for a special way of transferring the powers of the head - the managing organization or the manager. Moreover, the powers of the head himself are either suspended or terminated, depending on what transfer procedure is provided for by the charter of the company.

Let's try to figure out in accordance with what documents the managing organization or the manager can exercise their powers.

Charter

Firstly, it is the charter of the organization, which reflects the competence of the management bodies of the company, in particular, it is indicated who decides on the formation of the executive body and on the early termination of its powers. The excerpt wording is shown in Example 1.

9.3. The competence of the Board of Directors includes the following issues:

20) formation of the sole executive body of the Company and early termination of its powers, approval of the terms of an employment contract with it, as well as the adoption of a decision on the transfer of powers of the sole executive body of the Company to a commercial organization or an individual entrepreneur (manager), approval of such a manager and the terms of the contract with him;

Solution

Secondly, in accordance with paragraph 1 of Art. 69 federal law dated December 26, 1995 No. 208-FZ “On joint-stock companies”, the powers of the sole executive body of a joint-stock company may be transferred under an agreement to a commercial organization (managing organization) or to an individual entrepreneur (manager) by decision general meeting shareholders (only at the suggestion of the board of directors ( supervisory board) society). However, paragraph 3 of this article allows the decision on this issue by the board of directors (supervisory board) of the company, if this is referred by the charter to its competence.

Article 42 of the Federal Law of February 8, 1998 No. 14-FZ “On Limited Liability Companies” establishes a similar procedure for transferring the powers of the sole executive body of a limited liability company to a manager.

The decision of the general meeting of shareholders / participants on the transfer of powers of the sole executive body to the managing organization or the manager also determines the period for which the powers are transferred, and other terms of the contract.

Let us give an example of the resolutive part of the solution (Example 2).

The contract on behalf of the JSC with the managing organization/manager is signed by the chairman of the board of directors (supervisory board) of the company or a person authorized by the board of directors (supervisory board) of the company.

Or if a management contract is concluded (with an LLC or an individual entrepreneur), as a type of civil law contract, then the powers, rights and obligations are agreed by the parties in the contract itself.

The LLC instructs the management company to manage its affairs and property by exercising the powers of the sole executive body (director). The managing company, in turn, is represented by its director or another person authorized by him.

The general meeting of participants or the board of directors should decide on the transfer of powers of the director of the management company, approve such a company and the terms of the contract with it, including the amount of remuneration. It depends on what the charter says about this (subclause, clause 2.1, article 32, of the Federal Law of February 8, 1998 No. 14-FZ “On Limited Liability Companies”, hereinafter referred to as the LLC Law). There is no need to make any further changes.

If the decision is made by the general meeting of participants, a simple majority of votes is sufficient. For the board of directors, a different rule may be established in the charter or an internal document regulating the activities of the board (for example, in the Regulations on the Board of Directors).

In addition, the LLC concludes an agreement with the management company, according to which it transfers the powers of the director to it (clause 1, article 42 of the LLC Law). Scroll essential conditions contract is not defined in the law. In terms of content, this is a mixed contract, since it has signs of a contract for the provision of services for a fee, an agency contract and an agency contract.

The powers of the management company should be specified in the contract as detailed as possible. This is especially important if there are other executive bodies in the society, since a dispute over competence may arise later - at the most inconvenient moment, when delay will cost society dearly.

Also, the agreement between the company and the management company can provide for:

1. goals to be achieved by the management company. At the same time, it is better not to be limited to common goals, but to regularly draw up annexes to the contract with exact planned indicators, which the company under the leadership of the management company should achieve after a certain time. This will contribute to the achievement of an unambiguous understanding by the management company of the goals that the company wants to achieve;

2. the amount of the management company's remuneration. It can be set depending on the achievement of the indicators indicated in the previous paragraph. This will motivate her to work effectively, as well as minimize the risk that the cost of paying for her services will not be recognized as an income tax expense. The amount of remuneration should be divided into a fixed fee, compensation for direct expenses approved by the company, and remuneration from the result based on the results of the reporting period;

3. liability arising from the management company in connection with the performance by it of the functions assigned to it;

4. the procedure for terminating the powers of the management company;

5. the volume and content of information and reports that the management company is obliged to submit to the board of directors and shareholders regarding its work and the performance of the company, the frequency with which such reports must be submitted;

6. a list of officials of the managing organization who are obliged to report on its work to the board of directors and the general meeting of shareholders of the company;

7. conditions for non-disclosure of confidential information (volume of such information, terms of non-disclosure and responsibility).

The management company actually replaces the director. The actions of the management company give rise to rights and obligations for the LLC (clause 2, article 42 of the LLC Law). The management company must act in the interests of society in good faith and reasonably (clause 1, article 44 of the LLC Law).

At the same time, it is not necessary for the management company to transfer all the powers of the director, only a part can be transferred. In addition, you must not forget to distribute the rest of the powers among the management bodies of the LLC.

In judicial practice, there was such an opinion that the remaining part of the powers can be left with the director without completely terminating his powers. However, this may cause disputes with the tax authorities.

Example from practice: the tax office tried (though unsuccessfully) to charge additional income tax and VAT on the cost of paying for the services of a management company

LLC "G." and LLC "N." concluded an agreement dated June 5, 2004 No. 4 on the transfer of powers of the sole executive body of the company to the management company. Changes have been made to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

The competence of the director of LLC "G." (according to the job description) included operational management of current production processes with the right to enter into transactions that are insignificant for the company (up to USD 25,000).

The management company has been granted broader powers, its position corresponds to the position of the director defined in the LLC Law (according to the agreement on the transfer of powers).

According to the results of the tax audit LLC "G." was brought to tax liability, he was additionally assessed income tax and VAT, as well as accrued penalties, fined. Tax office, having charged additional taxes, insisted that the organization had no right to transfer part of the functions of the director to the management company (and, therefore, pay for such services and take this amount into account in its income tax expenses). The inspection argued that the LLC has the right to transfer either all the functions of the director, or none.

LLC "G." (applicant) did not agree with the decision of the inspection and applied to the arbitration court.

The court took the applicant's position because:

1. The Law on LLC does not limit the scope of powers transferred to the management company, therefore, it is possible to transfer both all powers and part of them;

2. There is no duplication of managerial functions.

Requirements of LLC "G." were satisfied. The courts of appeal and cassation agreed with the court of first instance (Decree of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Moscow District dated July 23, 2009 No. КА-А41/6105-09 in case No. А41-20225/08).

If you still leave the general director and the management company “at the helm” of the LLC, you must make sure that their powers are not duplicated. Otherwise, this may create not only tax risks, but also disputes over competence, which in practice will lead to destabilization in society.

What documents will the management company confirm its authority to counterparties of LLC

Two groups of documents can be distinguished.

First, the documents that confirm that the management has been transferred to the management company:

1. decision of the general meeting of LLC participants on the transfer of powers to it;

2. agreement on the transfer of powers to the managing organization;

3. extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities for LLC;

4. charter of the LLC.

Secondly, documents that confirm the powers of the CEO of the management company:

1. charter of the management company;

2. order on the appointment of the general director;

3. extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities for the management company itself;

4. decision of the general meeting of participants of the management company on the election of the general director.

Often, the CEO delegates the authority to manage the company to one of the employees of the management company. In this case, the authority of the latter must be confirmed by a power of attorney signed by the general director and accompanied by the seal of the management company. Such a power of attorney is not required to be certified by a notary, since the general director of the management company acts on behalf of the company without a power of attorney (clause 4, article 185.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).

The agreement with the management company is signed by the chairman of the general meeting of participants, which approved the terms of the agreement, or a participant authorized by the general meeting.

If the management company is approved by the board of directors, then the contract is signed by the chairman of the board of directors or a person authorized by the board of directors (clause 3, article 42 of the LLC Law).

When transferring the powers of the director of the management company, information about this change must be entered in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

What is the responsibility of the management company

The management company is liable to the company for losses caused to it by its guilty actions (inaction). Reimbursement can be demanded only through the court, the company itself or the participants have the right to do this (clause 5, article 44 of the LLC Law).

Case study: an organization (LLC) recovered from its director the losses caused by the fact that, on his personal order, the procedure for returning goods from the buyer was violated

This example concerns a director, but this practice is also applicable to a management company. Since in our country the involvement of management companies is not very common, judicial practice little with their participation. However, the same rules apply to the management company as to the director. Therefore, an example of recovering losses from a director can be taken into account in relations with a management company.

Between LLC "P." and LLC "M." a supply agreement was concluded, according to which OOO P. supplied by LLC "M." meat products, including chilled poultry meat.

After some time, LLC "P." citizen P. was appointed acting director. He exercised these powers from June 26 to December 23, 2009.

On September 5, 2009, the buyer was shipped products - chilled carcasses of broiler chickens of the 1st grade in the amount of 18 tons for a total amount of 1,458,000 rubles.

The buyer accepted the products without comment, as evidenced by his signature and stamp on the invoice.

At the same time, on September 8, 2009, during the subsequent delivery of similar products to the buyer in the amount of 15 tons, by order of citizen P., the driver took from the buyer part of the previous batch of products in the amount of 6588 kg for a total of 539,096 rubles. 4 kop. as a defective product.

All products accepted upon return from the buyer, on the personal order of P., were found unfit for free sale and were accepted into the warehouse for subsequent disposal.

LLC "P." applied to the arbitral tribunal statement of claim to citizen P. for the recovery of 539,096 rubles. 4 kop. damages, referring to the fact that the defendant did not comply with the established procedure for the return of products.

The court upheld the position of the plaintiff in connection with the following.

According to the contract, in the event of a product quality discrepancy, the buyer is obliged to call the supplier's representative to draw up an act, and if the supplier's representative does not arrive, the act must be drawn up with the participation of a representative of an independent expert organization.

In this case, the order was not observed, no written documents were received from the buyer to the plaintiff, no claims were received regarding the quality of the delivered products.

The defendant did not comply with the necessary conditions for identifying and accepting the return of low-quality products from the buyer. This caused the plaintiff damage in the amount of 539,096 RUB. 4 kop.

The claims were satisfied. The court of cassation agreed with the court of first instance (decree of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Volga District of April 28, 2011 in case No. A65-15620 / 2010, determination of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation of August 1, 2011 No. VAS-9669 / 11).

Case study: an organization recovered losses from its director in the form of a sum of money that he received from the cash desk under the report

The following example concerns the director of a CJSC, however, this practice is also applicable to the management company LLC.

From January 2007 to September 2008, citizen S. performed the functions of the general director of CJSC "P." and during this time received from the cash desk of the company to the account on cash disbursement orders cash for a total amount of 48,494,829 rubles. 31 kop. The funds received were partially returned in the amount of 8,779,000 rubles, the balance of the debt in the amount of 39,715,829 rubles. 31 kop. not returned, advance reports on the expenditure of funds for the amount of the debt were not drawn up.

Later ZAO "P." was declared bankrupt and, represented by the bankruptcy trustee, filed a lawsuit against S. for the recovery of 39,715,829 rubles. 31 kopecks, since this amount is the losses of the company, and they must be compensated at the expense of the defendant.

Court of Arbitration The first instance dismissed the claims. However, the courts of appeal and cassation upheld the plaintiff's position in connection with the following.

The defendant referred to the existence of relations between the parties under a loan agreement, to the transfer of debt and the termination of an obligation by novation and offset of mutual claims, but did not prove this.

In this regard, the funds received from the company are obliged to return exactly the person who received them, that is, S.

The claims were satisfied (decree of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the West Siberian District of March 21, 2011 in case No. A70-3844/2010).

If several persons are responsible, then it will be joint and several (clause 4, article 44 of the LLC Law).

It is usually quite difficult to recover losses, since it is necessary to prove the fact of a violation by the management company of its obligations, its guilt and a causal relationship between actions and losses incurred, as well as the amount of such losses (the following examples of long-term and unsuccessful recovery of losses relate to directors in joint-stock companies, but such the practice is also applicable to the management company in an LLC: decision of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation of May 22, 2007 No. 871/07; decision of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Central District of May 4, 2008 in case No. A36-1075 / 2006).

In addition, if the management company has not achieved the intended results, it is possible not to pay part of the remuneration to it (if this was agreed in advance in the contract).

In some cases, the management company (manager), as well as the general director, may be held administratively liable. specific individual(manager) can also be held criminally liable if his actions contain corpus delicti.

Also, LLC participants may invalidate the decision of the management company, which is contrary to the law or the charter and violates their interests (clause 3, article 43 of the Law on LLC).

Answered by Alexander Sorokin,

Deputy Head of the Operational Control Department of the Federal Tax Service of Russia

“CCP should be used only in cases where the seller provides the buyer, including its employees, with a deferral or installment plan for paying for their goods, works, services. It is these cases, according to the Federal Tax Service, that relate to the provision and repayment of a loan to pay for goods, work, and services. If an organization issues a cash loan, receives a return of such a loan, or itself receives and repays a loan, do not use the cash desk.

The store manager has not only responsibilities, but also a number of opportunities, which are also indicated in the job description. So, the manager of the point of sale has the right to:

  • Submit proposals for improving work, changing work schedules, expanding or reducing the range of products, holding promotions or advertising campaigns etc.

This is also not full list, but only the main provisions. As in the case of duties, the rights of the manager can be much broader depending on the specifics of the activity and the level of confidence of the employer.

Requirements

Since such a position implies a certain level of knowledge, skills and abilities that a store manager must have, duties are not the only important item in the job description. Often, the employer also prescribes requirements for the store director. For example:

  • Constantly improve the level of their qualifications by taking special training courses, trainings, attending conferences and round tables for managers.
  • Not to be regular customer competing trading network or shop.
  • Always have a well-groomed and neat appearance that complies with the corporate policy of the network.

As noted above, the store manager is responsible not only to the owners or top management of the network, but also to the law. It basically boils down to a few job descriptions:

  • For damages as a result of failure to perform or improperly perform their official duties the head is responsible in the amount established internal documents store (or network), as well as applicable law.
  • For the use of financial, material and technical resources of the point of sale in their own interests or in the interests of third parties, the manager is liable depending on the amount of damage caused.
  • For non-compliance with the requirements of regulatory legal acts, as well as for filing false reports to the authorities government controlled and control of the store manager is responsible in the amount established by law.

Working time

A difficult question is how this work is normalized. The store manager, like any other employee, can work no more than the number of hours per week that is established by applicable law. But, as a rule, this is only in theory. In practice, the store manager has an irregular working day and often works without days off and holidays. This is due to the great responsibility and volume of work. But with the right selection of personnel and competent distribution, it can organize its own working time productive and have a perfectly normal schedule. The main requirement of all owners usually boils down to the following: the business must work and generate income not below a certain level, and the rest is the task of the head of the outlet, and he will do it on his own, working at night, or will meet the deadlines, without processing, the founders in mostly interested in the last.

Salary

The salary of a store manager depends on many factors: the region in which the outlet is located, the focus and specifics of the work, the need or lack thereof on business trips and business trips, the volume of trade, the need for specific knowledge. The level of earnings of the director is almost always influenced by the profitability of the enterprise, as well as the fulfillment by employees of the point trading plans and charts. In other words, wage the director of a small grocery store in a residential area of ​​​​the city will certainly be significantly lower than the income of the manager of an expensive car dealership. Moreover, this difference can be not several thousand, but vary in the range of several orders of magnitude.

Features of food trade

A grocery store has its own specifics of activity associated with very strict requirements of legal documents for its activities. Since such a product can have an impact on human health or even life, the law is very strict about sanitary and hygienic standards for sales, as well as product quality. That is why the head of a retail outlet for the sale of food products (whether it is a wholesale warehouse or a regular grocery store) bears great responsibility and is obliged, among other things, to closely monitor the availability of all necessary certificates for products, the conditions of their transportation and storage, as well as the health and physical condition of their employees.

Resumes and candidates

A store manager resume should contain information about education and work experience. Such a position, as a rule, cannot be taken without having certain skills and knowledge in the field of trade. Please list all previous jobs. Most likely, the employer will be interested in the candidate who has gone through the entire career path from an ordinary salesperson to senior management. In this case, the applicant for the position will most likely have the most complete picture of the work process, possible difficulties and features.

Higher rank

Store chain manager - a position that, in essence, is very similar to the position of a store manager, but hallmark is the management of not one outlet, but several. As a rule, a manager of this level does not interact directly with all employees of the chain stores, but most often only with directors or their deputies. The duties and rights of such official almost the same as the store manager. The responsibility of the network director is, as a rule, to the owners or founders.

Non-standard approach

Today it is becoming more and more popular non-standard approach to a position such as a store manager. Responsibilities of the director of a retail outlet have recently been supplemented with new items, including making non-standard decisions and introducing creative ideas for business development. It all depends on the corporate policy of the network and the views of the owners on the conduct of trade.
