Member states are prohibited from offering company-specific incentives or grants for corporate headquarters, manufacturing facilities, office space, or real estate developments located in other member states as relocation inducements.

Allows member states to withdraw with 6 months' written notice to all other member states' chief executives; enforcement is handled by each state's attorney general and allows taxpaying residents standing to require enforcement.
