The type of consideration you can use to purchase stock is found in each states' corporations code. Most states allow this (Delaware, California). It sounds like your transaction will likely be tax-free via Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code. But of course, please seek the advice of counsel on this one (and all other matters). Joe -

A question unrelated to the start-up holiday party. Can I assign "prior IP / patents" to cover the cost of restricted stock (Fair Market Value) in a new start-up? The FMV is significantly more than the usual penny. Can prior IP be used to cover the cost? Any tax implications? thanks Hi Ryan – excellent blog. A question unrelated to the start-up holiday party.
