Articles Of Association And Shareholders Agreement

"I need Articles of Association and Shareholders Agreement for a new Singapore technology startup with three founding shareholders, incorporating specific vesting provisions and tag-along rights, planned for implementation by March 2025."

Document background
The Articles of Association and Shareholders Agreement is a fundamental document required when establishing a company in Singapore or restructuring existing shareholder relationships. This combined document is particularly useful as it consolidates what would traditionally be two separate documents, streamlining corporate governance and reducing potential conflicts between different governing documents. It must comply with Singapore's Companies Act and is typically used when incorporating a new company or when existing shareholders wish to formalize their relationships and obligations. The document covers essential aspects such as share rights, transfer restrictions, management structure, and decision-making processes.
