The Impact of Shareholder Resolutions Moreover, most shareholder resolutions filed are non-binding, meaning that even if they gain a majority of votes, the company need not comply with their requests.
You do not always need to have a meeting to pass a resolution. If enough shareholders or directors have told you they agree, you can usually confirm the resolution in writing. You must write to all shareholders letting them know about the outcome of a resolution.
A shareholders' resolution can either be passed during a formal meeting of the shareholders or in writing (without holding an actual meeting). Regardless of the method, the resolutions must be passed in ance with certain statutory, and possibly contractual, requirements.
If the required number of votes is achieved, the resolution is passed, and the decision is legally binding.
There are two main types of shareholders' resolution: 'ordinary' and 'special'. An ordinary resolution is passed by a simple majority of members, while a special resolution requires not less than 75% of the total voting rights of eligible members.
Voting on resolutions can create binding or non-binding outcomes for the company. Any special resolution passed by shareholders becomes part of a company's constitution and creates binding commitments. Binding votes are the most forceful form of driving change as a company is legally bound to act if the vote is passed.
(4) b) may include the text of a resolution that may properly be moved and is intended to be moved at the meeting. Shareholders may, therefore, either requisition a resolution to be moved at the Company's AGM or require the directors to call a dedicated general meeting at which the resolution may be moved.
Provided it has been properly executed, a shareholder agreement is a legally binding contract and can be enforced. This is a good reason to ensure that it has been drawn up by an expert, as it could one day end up before the court, where it will be examined in detail.
