QUESTION 1
With reference to the Companies Act 71 of 2008 and the facts provided, advise
Oliver whether his arguments hold merit, and whether the ordinary resolutions
were validly passed at the meeting.
1.1 If every shareholder of a company (other than a state-owned company) is also a
director of the company, any matter that is required to be referred by the board to the
shareholders for decision may be dealt with in terms of section 57(4) of the
Companies Act 71 of 2008. The effect of this section is that a matter may be referred
by the board to the shareholders without notice or compliance with any internal
formalities. However, this is subject to the Memorandum of Incorporation which may
provide otherwise. Therefore, as all the shareholders of Exclusive Properties (Pty)
Ltd are directors of the company, section 57(4) of the Companies Act 71 of 2008
would be applicable, unless the Memorandum of Incorporation provides otherwise.
