Transactions with Interested Shareholders Sample Clauses

The "Transactions with Interested Shareholders" clause regulates dealings between a company and its shareholders who have a significant ownership stake or influence, often defined by a specific percentage of shares. It typically requires that any transaction involving such shareholders—such as sales, loans, or contracts—receive approval from disinterested directors or a majority of non-interested shareholders to ensure fairness. This clause is designed to prevent conflicts of interest and protect the company and minority shareholders from potentially unfair or self-dealing transactions.
Transactions with Interested Shareholders. The Delaware General Corporation Law contains a business combination statute applicable to Delaware corporations whereby, unless the corporation has specifically elected not to be governed by such statute by amendment to its certificate of incorporation, it is prohibited from engaging in certain business combinations with an “interested shareholder” for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested shareholder. An interested shareholder, generally, is a person who, or a group which, owns or owned 15% or more of the target’s outstanding voting share within the past three years. This has the effect of limiting the ability of a potential acquirer to make a two-tiered bid for the target in which all shareholders would not be treated equally. The statute does not apply if, among other things, prior to the date on which such shareholder becomes an interested shareholder, the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder. This encourages any potential acquirer of a Delaware corporation to negotiate the terms of any acquisition transaction with the target’s board of directors. Cayman Islands law has no comparable statute. As a result, we cannot avail ourselves of the types of protections afforded by the Delaware business combination statute. However, although Cayman Islands law does not regulate transactions between a company and its significant shareholders, it does provide that such transactions must be entered into bona fide in the best interests of the company and for a proper purpose and not with the effect of constituting a fraud on the minority shareholders.
