Annual Returns
Permalink  

I'm just completing an Annual Return on line and the form has been changed quite a bit, but under the section for issued shares it appears a note needs to be written regarding voting rights, dividend rights, capital rights, whether the shares are to be redeemed etc. Anyone come across this? Is there a standard response for a normal owner managed company with 100 shares issued to the sole director?  Thanks in advance.

Found what I'm looking for guys:

each share is entitled to one vote in any circumstances this wording will reflect the general legal position of one member one vote under section 284 Companies Act 2006;

each share is entitled pari passu to dividend payments or any other distribution this will reflect a basic right to dividends but any dividend must be made in accordance with the Companies Act and the companys articles of association; and

each share is entitled pari passu to participate in a distribution arising from a winding up of the company - any distribution from a company being wound up will therefore operate in accordance with the law.

It is very unlikely that companies using the model articles will issue shares with capital distribution rights. Generic wording is therefore difficult to provide and companies with such shares are better placed to describe the rights attached

Hi Rob,

sorry, wasn't around when you posted the question.

I had the same problem myself. I'm guessing that you found your answer over on accounting web as well (some very clever boys and girls over there).

I went for the simpler option. See my post :

But yours looks good too.

cheers,

Shaun.
