- Pre-emptive rights on new share issues, anti-dilution protection for an investor class, drag-along and tag-along on a sale.
- Information rights (annual accounts, quarterly management accounts and a budget), an expanded list of decisions that need shareholder or investor approval, deadlock, valuation and dispute steps.
- Includes the directors' resolution for the company to sign it. You review both first.
