Frequently asked Questions
The Succession and Assignment of HOTELA Ownership provision ensures continuity of HOTELA Ownership if the current HOTELA Owner becomes unable to execute the responsibilities due to various circumstances such as death, bankruptcy, or incapacity. In such cases, a predetermined individual or 'Potential Successor' from a list provided by the Hotela Owner will assume the role and responsibilities.
Potential Successor names are individuals identified by the HOTELA Owner who may assume the responsibilities of HOTELA Ownership if the current HOTELA owner becomes unable to perform their duties. These names are listed in an order agreed upon by the HOTELA Owner and the Company.
Yes, the HOTELA Owner has the right to revise, update, add to, or delete from the list of dormant or active names associated with the HOTELA Ownership at any time. Changes to the list take effect immediately upon the HOTELA Owner notifying the Company in writing of such changes.
When a Potential Successor is activated, that individual will assume all responsibilities and obligations of the Hotela Owner under the Agreement, subject to its terms and conditions. They will essentially step into the shoes of the original Hotela Owner, unless otherwise specified in a written addendum. Successor can waive their rights if they choose.

The Hotela Owner is obligated to ensure that any individual whose name is added to the list of dormant or active names understands and agrees to the terms of the Agreement. This includes the potential responsibilities and obligations they may have to assume upon their name's activation.
By allowing for the transfer of Hotela Ownership to a predetermined individual, the Succession and Assignment provision can simplify the inheritance process. However, tax laws are complex and vary by location, so consult with a tax advisor for specific tax implications.
Yes, HOTELA Ownership can be part of an estate and transferred to a designated individual if there are no Potential Successors listed. Potential Successors have priority since the Potential Successors are already a registered owner in case of the HOTELA owner's demise. This process ensures a seamless transition of HOTELA ownership rights and responsibilities to the Potential Successor.
When you add a Potential Successor to your HOTELA Ownership share, it is the same as if you purchased it together. The only difference is usage and benefits rights as they are inactive until the Potential Successor replaces the primary HOTELA Owner. It's always recommended to consult a tax advisor for specific advice on this matter.
Depending on the circumstances and local tax laws, a straight assignment of Hotela Ownership could potentially be considered a gift. We advise consulting a tax advisor to fully understand any possible tax implications.

This situation should ideally be prevented by maintaining an updated 'Potential Successor names' list. If it does occur, the company would handle the situation based on the existing terms of the agreement and applicable inheritance laws. Always consult with a legal advisor for specifics.
