спасибо всем за помощь; надеюсь, сюда ещё хоть кто-нибудь заглянет вот самый широкий контекст, который только можно предоставить (цитирую всю статью полностью): SHARE CAPITAL AND VARIATION OF RIGHTS
4. Without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of any existing shares or class of shares, any share in the company may be issued with such preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions, whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise as the company may from time to time by ordinary resolution determine.
5. Subject to the provisions of section 57 of the Law, any preference shares may, with the sanction of a special resolution, be issued on the terms that they are, or at the option of the company are liable, to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner as the company before the issue of the shares may by special resolution determine.
6. If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) may, whether or not the company is being wound up, be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of three-fourths of the issued shares of that class, or with the sanction of an extraordinary resolution passed at
a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class. To every such separate general meeting the provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings shall apply, but so that the necessary quorum shall be two persons at least holding or representing by proxy one-third of the issued shares of the class and that any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll. The provisions of Article 88 relating to the passing of resolutions in writing by the members shall apply mutatis mutandis.
7. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.
8. The company may exercise the powers of paying commissions conferred by
section 52 of the Law, provided that the rate per cent or the amount of the
commission paid or agreed to be paid shall be disclosed in the manner required
by the said section and the rate of the commission shall not exceed the rate of 10
per cent of the price at which the shares in respect whereof the same is paid are
issued or an amount equal to 10 per cent of such price (as the case may be).
Such commission may be satisfied by the payment of cash or the allotment of
fully or partly paid shares or partly in one way and partly in the other. The
company may also on any issue of shares pay such brokerage as may be lawful.
9. Except as required by law, no person shall be recognized by the company as
holding any share upon any trust, and the company shall not be bound by or be
compelled in any way to recognize (even when having notice thereof) any
equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or any interest in any
12 fractional part of a share or (except only as by these Articles or by law or by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise provided) any other rights in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the registered holder.
Notwithstanding the above, but always subject to the provisions of section 112 of the Law, the company may if it so desires and if it has been notified in writing thereof, recognize the existence of a trust on any share although it may not register the same in the Register of Members of the company. Such recognition by the company is made known to the trustees by letter and is irrevocable as long as such trust remains in existence, even though trustees or any of them may be replaced.
10. Every person whose name is entered as a member in the register of members
shall be entitled without payment to receive within two months after allotment or
lodgment of transfer (or within such other period as the conditions of issue shall
provide) one certificate for all his shares or several certificates each for one or
more of his shares upon payment of 20 cent for every certificate after the first or
such less sum as the directors shall from time to time determine. Every certificate
shall be under the seal and shall specify the shares to which it relates and the
amount paid up thereon. Provided that in respect of a share or shares held jointly
by several persons the company shall not be bound to issue more than one
certificate and delivery of a certificate for a share to one of several joint holders
shall be sufficient delivery to all such holders.
11. If a share certificate be defaced, lost or destroyed, it may be renewed on payment
of a fee of 20 cent or such less sum and on such terms (if any) as to evidence and
indemnity and the payment of out-of-pocket expenses of the company of
investigating evidence as the directors think fit.
12. The company shall not give, whether directly or indirectly, and whether by means
of a loan, guarantee, the provision of security or otherwise, any financial
assistance for the purpose of or in connection with a purchase or subscription
made or to be made by any person of or for any shares in the company or in its
holding company nor shall the company make a loan for anypurpose whatsoever
on the security of its shares or those of its holding company, but nothing in this
regulation shall prohibit transactions mentioned in the proviso to section 53(1) of
the Law.
