What happens if there is no Shareholders Agreement?
The fact is, without a Shareholders Agreement, a minority shareholder could block a sale. The way around this is to agree ‘drag along’ or ‘tag along’ provisions in an agreement so that, if the majority of shareholders want to sell, the minority will do so too.
