Shareholder & Joint Venture Agreements

Our Corporate & Commercial Team advise companies on all aspects of their corporate law requirements including shareholder and joint venture agreements.

What is a Shareholders’ Agreement?

A shareholders’ agreement is an agreement between the shareholders or owners of a private company limited by shares (known as LTD companies) setting out certain contractual provisions as to how a company will be managed and controlled.

What is a Joint Venture Shareholders’ Agreement?

A joint venture shareholders agreement is one which is entered between shareholders, sometimes within a special purpose company and can be entered on a 50:50 basis or on a majority: minority basis.

In general, a joint venture shareholders agreement will contain many of the same provisions as a normal shareholders agreement with some additions to cover default of arrangement, termination and exit and share transfers.
