An Ordinary Resolution of Shareholders is a fundamental tool in corporate governance under English and Welsh law. It is used when companies need to make decisions that require shareholder approval but don't need the higher threshold of a special resolution. The document must include specific details about the meeting or written resolution process, the exact text of the resolution, voting results, and appropriate certification. It's essential for maintaining proper corporate records and demonstrating compliance with the Companies Act 2006 and the company's constitutional documents.
