Seminar: Drafting a memorandum of incorporation under the new Companies Act

The new Companies Act allows considerable freedom in structuring the relationships between a company, its directors and the holders of its shares and other securities. As many aspects can be regulated only in the memorandum and because neither governance rules nor shareholder agreements may conflict with the memorandum, the importance of a suitably drafted memorandum is evident.

The aim of this seminar is to provide –

• an overview of important aspects of the new Companies Act that have a bearing on the drafting of memoranda of incorporation
• a detailed analysis of the specific provisions pertaining to the memorandum of incorporation
• an exposition of the various options presented by the prescribed forms
• guidelines for drafting a unique form of memorandum of incorporation
• an explanation of the implications for pre-existing companies

Seminar: Don't let a supplier incur penalties for non-compliance with the Consumer Protection Act

The main attraction of this seminar is to discuss compliance with the Consumer Protection Act of 2008 through a compliance checklist for suppliers (thus excluding the discussion on the rights of consumers). The seminar will focus on how to market, draft a contract and train agents acting on behalf of the supplier, and give an overview of the consequences for suppliers where they fail to comply with the Act (such as the supplier's liability).
