Ok, not enough info here... I'll generalize...

If the company information is in the registration, they are the owners the domain. I assume you are just the technical contact. If this is correct, then you would need to relenquish the domain. AS far as hosting, if you are paying for that and they did not pay you, then turn off the hosting.

But in reality, if you do keep the domain and they do have a TM of the domain you own, all the money stuff may matter in WIPO.

As with any business, everything should be spelled out in a contract, including ownership of the domain. But to protect yourself, you can put in default terms and conditions upon nonpayment (IE- loss of the domain).
