Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the later simple-written agreements on the ground rent bound the defendant company despite lack of public notarization and signature in the company's name.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The defendant was not bound by those later agreements because they were signed only by the shareholders in their own capacity, not in the company's name; the company could invoke that lack of binding effect.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court found the later contracts were concluded between the shareholders personally, not by the company as a contracting party. The company is a separate legal person and, absent ratification or misuse of the corporate form, is not bound by agreements not entered into in its name.
