SPECIAL RESOLUTION — ALTERATION OF CLAUSE V (CAPITAL CLAUSE) OF THE MEMORANDUM OF ASSOCIATION
Use this form only where the articles of association, a shareholders' agreement or a class right requires a special resolution for an increase in, or a re-classification of, the authorised share capital, or where the capital clause is being recast beyond a change in the figure — for example on the creation of a new class of shares. A simple increase under Section 61(1)(a) requires an ordinary resolution only, and passing a special resolution attracts a filing in Form MGT-14 within thirty days that would otherwise not arise.
