According to the 10-Article decree, the new company is of limited liability and is owned by the Sharjah Civil Aviation Department, as first party, and the Sharjah International Airport Authority, the second party.

The company's capital, as defined in Article 3 is Dh10 million comprising 10,000 shares at a face value of Dh1,000 per share with the first party bearing Dh6 million or 6,000 shares and the second Dh4 million or 4,000 shares. All shares must be paid fully in cash.
