A shareholders agreement is fundamentally important to your business. There are numerous issues that can arise that can give rise to serious disputes between shareholders and more often than not, shareholder disputes can jeopardise the entire business. It is also vital that a shareholders agreement is concluded in conjuction with the Memorandum of Incorporation for the Company, particularly as the Companies Act 2008 provides that in relation to certain vital aspects a Memorandum of Incorporation will override and take precedence over a shareholders agreement.
This agreement provides for the cession of a contract from one party to another. If the contract incorporates obligations by the cedent and/or if the contract itself precludes a cession in the absence of the consent of the cessionary, then a written cession of the agreement is required.
