Marginal note:Restrictions and constraints

    • (a) a restriction on its transfer other than a constraint under Part VII, or

    • (b) a lien in favour of the company,

    the restriction or lien is ineffective against a transferee of the security who has no actual knowledge of it, unless the restriction or lien or a reference to it is noted conspicuously on the security certificate.

  • Marginal note:Limit on restriction

    (2) Where any of the issued shares of a company are or were part of a distribution to the public and remain outstanding and are held by more than one person, the company shall not have a restriction on the issue, transfer or ownership of its shares of any class or series except by way of a constraint under Part VII.

  • Marginal note:Transitional

    (3) If a body corporate that is continued as a company under this Act has outstanding security certificates and the words “private company” or “private corporation” appear on the certificates, those words are deemed to be a notice of a restriction or lien for the purposes of subsection (1).
