FAQ

Shareholders holding at least $2,000 worth of stock in a publicly-traded company for at least three years prior to the filing deadline can introduce a resolution to company management to be voted on at the next annual meeting.

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.

Board resolutions deal with operational and management decisions, while shareholder resolutions address more significant, often strategic, matters affecting the company.

Introduction. A shareholder proposal is a resolution that is put forward by a single shareholder, or group of shareholders, to a company board, asking for a matter to be voted upon at the company's Annual General Meeting (AGM). It is an important stewardship tool that focuses efforts on a concrete call to action.

Board directors and shareholders are the only members of the company that can make company resolutions.

There are basically two types of shareholders: the common shareholders and the preferred shareholders. Common shareholders are those that own a company's common stock. They are the more prevalent type of stockholders and they have the right to vote on matters concerning the company.

What should shareholder resolutions include? Your corporation's name. Date, time and location of meeting. Statement that all shareholders agree to the resolution. Confirmation of the necessary quorum for business to be conducted. Names of shareholders present or voting by proxy. Number of shares for each voting shareholder.
