(5)
The exception to the general rule of voting on shareholders' resolutions at properly constituted
meetings is provided under Section 60 of the Companies Act 71 of 2008. This section allows for
written resolutions to be passed by shareholders without the need for a physical meeting.
Under this exception, shareholders can pass resolutions by written consent instead of convening
a meeting. The Act sets out the requirements for this process, which include:
Written consent: The resolution must be in writing and signed by all shareholders who are entitled
to vote on the matter. Each shareholder's signature can be in physical or electronic form.
