Document background
The Share Purchase And Shareholders Agreement is a fundamental document in Singapore corporate transactions, combining the immediate transfer of shares with long-term governance arrangements. It is typically used in private company acquisitions, investment rounds, or corporate restructuring where new shareholders are entering the company. The agreement addresses both the mechanics of the share transfer and the future relationship between shareholders, including voting rights, board representation, and exit provisions. Under Singapore law, this document must comply with the Companies Act (Cap. 50) and related regulations, while incorporating market-standard protections for all parties involved. It serves as both a transaction document and a constitutional document governing shareholder relationships.
