Under the Companies Act 2006 a director of a company can be removed from office before the expiration of his period of office by Ordinary Resolution of the members.
Thus, despite anything in any agreement between the director and the company, a director of a private limited company or a public company can be removed from office before the end of his term by ordinary resolution of the members.
This Ordinary Resolution - Removal of a Director template shall be used in order to remove a director of a private limited company or public company from office.
NB: Private limited companies cannot use the written resolution procedure to remove a director. Consequently, private limited companies cannot pass a written ordinary resolution to remove a director. Directors can only be removed by ordinary resolution passed at a general meeting of the company. Public companies cannot use the written resolution procedure in any event.
Please note that the company must be given Special Notice of at least 28 clear days of the proposed ordinary resolution to remove a director.
This Ordinary Resolution is in Microsoft Word format, written in plain English, easy to use and edit.
