My understanding is that unless you have provision (in a shareholder's agreement for example) that gives you that power the answer is no. I believe that if you sued the company a judge would likely intervene on your behalf though.
- Umalu 16y agoUltimately the directors are always elected by the shares, and unless there is something really strange about the voting rights, someone owning a controlling interest in the shares should be able to control election to the board, which in turn would allow that person to control the board. Controlling the shares + controlling the board = controlling the company.
- staunch 16y agoThe shares do elect, but the owner of the shares can be required to vote a certain way. You could sell 90% of your shares and add a "ELECTION OF BOARD DIRECTORS" clause to the agreement. This is the same way drag along rights work.
