Frequently Asked Question

What is the importance of Shareholder’s Agreement?

A Shareholder's Agreement (SHA) is an agreement that governs the rights and obligations of the shareholders of the company inter se. All your important rights in a company, such as type of securities, conversion rate of convertible securities, veto rights, anti-dilution rights, right of first refusal (ROFR), right of first offer (ROFO), drag along rights, tag along rights, other exit rights, etc. are all mentioned in the SHA.

How do you use Shareholder’s Agreement?

Whenever you are entering into any investment transaction where you are purchasing the shares of a company (either through buying shares through existing shareholders or subscribing to new shares), you should enter into an agreement called SHA. 

 

In order to give effect to the terms of SHA, amendment to the Articles of Association (AoA) post investment,  is pertinent.

What is the difference between Shareholders Agreement, Share Subscription Agreement and Share Purchase Agreement?

A Shareholders Agreement (SHA) is an agreement that governs the relationship between the shareholders inter se. It enumerated the important rights and obligations of the shareholders.

 

A Share Subscription Agreement (SSA) is an agreement between a new investor and the company by which the company issues fresh securities to the investor. 

 

A Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) is an agreement that is entered into between a new investor and an existing (or exiting) investor. By the virtue of SPA, the existing investor transfers the whole or a part of its shareholding in favour of the new investor. 

 

In contrast therefore, in an SSA, new securities are being issued to the investor and in case of SPA, an existing investor is transferring his shareholdings to the new investor. The company is just a passive party in case of SPA. However, in SSA, the company is the active party. A SHA, on the other hand, is entered into either case, i.e. whether new security is being issued or the security is being transferred.
