first by replace that crap by a systemd-unit and if it does nothing else 
than call the shellscript in ExecStart and ExecStop

second as you say it's only used at shutdown then it don't need 
ExecStart at all, just Type=oneshot and ExecStop, you can also use 
ExecStart=/bin/true for such cases

and finally: order you After/Before correctly since stop of services at 
shutdown happens in the exactly reversed ordering than their start at 
boot which should make it pretty clear

that sentence is worthless without saying waht you have tried

dozens of times people are coming here with RequiresMountsFor=/var/run 
not realizing that this is a symlink to /run and so never can do what 
one thinks it does because they symlink exists in different lifecycles 
times than mounts where it points to
