Frequently Asked Questions
What is a quorum?A quorum is the minimum level of attendance by the Shareholders, in person or represented by proxy, that must be present at all times in order for a meeting to proceed.

The Corporations Act sets this level at two shareholders but this is a replaceable rule which can be amended by your Company Constitution. Depending on the shareholdings in your Company at any given time, two shareholders could amount to 100% of the votes or much less.

By instead using a percentage of votes to establish a quorum, you can ensure that a simple majority of votes (51%) or a stronger majority (e.g. 75%) is always required to conduct a meeting. What difference does it make if a company has a sole member/director?The replaceable rules in the Corporations Act do not apply to companies where the sole member, or shareholder, is also the sole director. In those circumstances meetings are not necessary and resolutions are passed by the sole member signing the record in the minute book.What is remote communication?Remote communication means participating in a meeting by means of phone or video conferencing. If permitted, Shareholders connecting remotely are counted as attending the meeting.

Remote communication is beneficial where it may be impractical for some participants to attend due to distance.What is a voting trust?A voting trust is where Shareholders agree to give their voting shares to a third party (the trustee) who holds the shares and will vote the shares in accordance with a voting trust agreement.What is a cumulative voting?Cumulative voting may be used when shareholders vote to elect a board of directors. It prevents a majority shareholder from being able to elect all the Directors of a company by allowing a minority shareholder to apply all their cumulative votes to one Director.

Where cumulative voting is allowed, the number of votes allowed for each shareholder will be calculated by multiplying the number of voting shares they are entitled to cast by the number of Directors being elected. The shareholder may then cast their total votes for a single Director or may distribute them among two or more Directors.

CONSTITUTION OF ____________________
ACN: ____________
(the "Company")

  1. Replaceable Rules
  2. This Constitution supplements the Replaceable Rules in the Corporations Act 2001. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Constitution and the Replaceable Rules, the provisions of this Constitution will prevail.

  3. SHAREHOLDERS

  4. Annual General Meeting
  5. A meeting of the Shareholders of the Company (the "Shareholders") will be held annually for the purpose of electing directors (the "Directors") of the Company and for the purpose of doing other business as may come before the meeting. If the day fixed for the annual general meeting is a public holiday in the Australian Capital Territory, the annual general meeting will be held on the next succeeding business day or on a date determined by the board of directors for the Company (the "Board") that is no later than two weeks after the date specified in the meeting notice.
  6. Meetings of Shareholders
  7. Unless otherwise prescribed by statute, meetings of the Shareholders, for any purpose or purposes, may only be called in the following ways:
    1. By a majority of the Board;
    2. By the president of the Company (the "President"); or
    3. By the Directors upon the request of holders of shares entitled to cast in total not less than 5 percent of the votes that may be cast at the general meeting where written requests describing the purpose or purposes for the meeting are signed, dated and delivered to a member of the Board or other Officer of the Company.
  8. The Board will determine the time, place and date of any meeting provided that, in the case of a meeting called by the requisite percentage of Shareholders in accordance with this Constitution, the Board will issue notice of the meeting within 30 days of receipt of the written demand(s) by the relevant Officer of the Company.
  9. Notice of Meetings
  10. The written notice of any meeting will be given not less than 21 days before the date of the meeting to each Shareholder entitled to vote at that meeting and to the appointed auditor of the Company (if applicable). The written notice of the meeting will state the place or places, the date and the time of the meeting, and the means of remote communications, if any and, for meetings other than the annual general meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.
  11. Subject to the Corporations Act 2001, if shareholders entitled to cast at least 95% of the votes at the meeting are in agreement, the Company may call the meeting on shorter notice. Notice must be given individually to each Shareholder entitled to vote, either in person, by Australia Post, or by any electronic means nominated by individual Shareholders. Notice is deemed effective one day after being sent by electronic means, or three days after being sent by post.
  12. Resolutions without Meetings
  13. Any action to be taken at any meeting of Shareholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if consent in writing, setting forth the action to be taken, is signed by all the Shareholders entitled to vote on the matter and delivered to the Company. The consent may consist of one document duly signed by all the Shareholders, or multiple identical documents each signed by one or more of the Shareholders. Every written consent will bear the date of signature of each Shareholder who signs the consent. Each Shareholder of a jointly held shareholding must sign. The resolution is passed when the last Shareholder signs.
  14. Remote Communication Meetings
  15. Remote communication means any electronic communication including conference telephone, video conference, the internet, or any other method currently available or developed in the future by which Shareholders not present in the same physical location may simultaneously communicate with each other.
  16. In the sole and reasonable discretion of the Board, and provided the Shareholders as a whole have a reasonable opportunity to participate, a meeting of Shareholders of the Company may be facilitated by any means of remote communication. Where a meeting will employ remote communication, one or more Shareholders may participate by means of remote communication or the meeting may be held solely by means of remote communication at the sole discretion of the Board. Where any remote communication is used in a Shareholder meeting, all persons authorised to vote or take other action at the meeting must be able to hear each other during the meeting and each person will have a reasonable opportunity to participate. This remote participation in a meeting will constitute presence in person at the meeting. All votes or other actions taken at the meeting by means of electronic transmission must be maintained as a matter of record by the Company.
  17. Register of Shareholders Entitled to Vote
  18. The Officer who has charge of the Register of Shareholders of the Company will prepare and make, the day before notice of meeting of the Shareholders is sent, a complete register of the Shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the postal address, or nominated electronic address of each Shareholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each Shareholder. The register must be available for inspection by any Shareholder during the meeting. The register must be provided for any purpose related to the meeting:
    1. On a reasonably accessible electronic network, so long as the information required to access the register is provided with the notice of the meeting; or
    2. During ordinary business hours, at the Registered Office of the Company.
  19. If the Company decides to make the register available on an electronic network, the Company will ensure that this information is available only to Shareholders of the Company. If the meeting is to be held at a physical location, then the register will be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time of the meeting and may be inspected by any Shareholder who is present.
  20. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the register will also be open to the examination of any Shareholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access the register will be provided with the notice of the meeting.
  21. If any Director wilfully neglects or refuses to produce the Register of Shareholders at any meeting for the election of Directors, or to open such a list to examination on a reasonably accessible electronic network during any meeting for the election of Directors held solely by means of remote communication, those Directors will be ineligible for election to any office at that meeting.
  22. The Register of Shareholders will be the only evidence as to who are the Shareholders entitled by this section to examine the register required by this section or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of Shareholders.
  23. Quorum and Required Vote
  24. In all matters other than the election of Directors, any act of the Shareholders must be passed by an affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter.
  25. Directors will be elected by a majority of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of Directors.
  26. Where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series of shares ("Eligible Shares") is required, 0 percent of the outstanding Eligible Shares present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter. Any act to be taken must be passed by an affirmative vote of the majority of the outstanding Eligible Shares present in person or represented by proxy.
  27. A minimum of 0 percent of the shares entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum entitled to take action at a meeting of Shareholders.
  28. Shareholders Voting Rights and Proxies
  29. Subject to the rights and restrictions placed on individual classes of shares, each Shareholder has one vote on a show of hands, and one vote per share held on a poll.
  30. Each Shareholder entitled to vote at a meeting of Shareholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorise another person or persons to act for that Shareholder by proxy, but no proxy will be valid after 11 months from the date of its execution unless the proxy provides for a longer period.
  31. Execution of a proxy may be accomplished by the Shareholder making the appointment signing, or otherwise authenticating in accordance with law, the appointment including the names and addresses of the Shareholder, the Company and the proxy, the office held by the proxy, and the meetings at which the appointment may be used.
  32. A duly executed proxy will be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the shares or an interest in the Company generally.
  33. Voting Rights of Fiduciaries, Pledgers and Joint Owners of Shares
  34. Persons holding shares in a fiduciary capacity will be entitled to vote the shares so held. Persons whose shares are pledged will be entitled to vote, unless, in the transfer by the pledger on the books of the Company, that person has expressly empowered the pledgee to vote the shares, in which case only the pledgee, or that pledgee's proxy, may represent and vote the shares.
  35. If a share is held jointly and more than one Shareholder votes in respect of that share, only the vote of the Shareholder whose name appears first in the Register of Shareholders counts.
  36. Voting Trusts and Other Voting Agreements
  37. Two or more Shareholders may, by agreement in writing, create a voting trust by depositing their shares with a voting trustee, who will have the authority to vote the shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of the voting trust agreement. To be valid, the voting trustee must deliver copies of the Register of Shareholders and the voting trust agreement to the Principal Office of the Corporation. Upon receiving the voting trust agreement, the Company will issue new share certificates in the name of the trustee and cancel the old share certificates. The new share certificates issued will state that they are issued pursuant to a voting trust agreement.
  38. Any amendment to a voting trust agreement will be made by a written agreement, a copy of which will be filed with the Principal Office of the Corporation.
  39. The right of inspection of any voting trust agreement or related amendment by a Shareholder of record or a holder of a voting trust certificate, in person or by agent, will be the same right of inspection that applies to the securities Register of the Company.
  40. An agreement between two or more Shareholders, if in writing and signed by the parties to the agreement, may provide that in exercising any voting rights, the shares held by them will be voted as provided by the agreement, or as the parties may agree, or as determined in accordance with a procedure agreed upon by them.
  41. The above provisions concerning voting trusts and voting agreements will not be deemed to invalidate any voting or other agreement among Shareholders or any irrevocable proxy which is not otherwise illegal.
  42. Cumulative Voting
  43. Shareholders may use cumulative voting elections when electing Directors.

In order to transact business at a meeting of the Directors, a quorum of __________ percent of the total number of Directors eligible to vote will be required.

  52. Notice
  53. Reasonable notice of the date, time, and place, or places, of a meeting of the Board will be given individually to every Director.
  54.
