#17 Q&A Session

  • Adopting Table A, can a company has a short notice for AGM?
  • The fee for new company adopting constitution is RM 200, no longer 100?
  • If we alter the whole M&A & change with new constitution using s36, do we still need to stamp that constitution?
  • Confused with 75%. Can repeat please?
  • Shares issued before commencement of Act which are partly paid need to pay up to par value?
  • If the constitution mention that subject to the provision of the Art, resolution in writing signed by all member shall be valid and effective and the Act mention that subject to constitution, the resolution is passed is signed by majority, which shall be followed? Majority or all?
  • Most of the new companies didn’t adopt constitution now right?
  • LR Amendments 29/11/2017 seems some affecting constitution, got to amend by 2018?
  • Section 85 and Section 75? Abit confused.
  • For member’s written resolution should we insert the percentage of shareholdings under their names? Depending on reso then we insert the date?
  • If a founder of a company (eg.the late Steve Jobs) put a clause in the constitution of the company as: “the Founder of the Company can not be removed as Director from the Company either for years”, he will be exempted to be removed from the company?

Do the founder of the company need approval from shareholders in EGM or AGM for the special clause to protect himself being removed? Even if, shareholders and Directors all approved, can they pass another resolution by them to object or withdrawn such clause in the future?

E.g. Maybe change of management with new Board of Directors wish to remove old Board of Directors including the founder and pioneers of the company?

Or by which ways to remove such clause to left the veil of protection of their positions?
