Anmerkungen:
- A distribution is a way of returning value to a company's shareholders.
- If the company fails to satisfy the solvency test
- the distribution is deemed not to have been validly made
- Therefore it may be recovered by the
company from the shareholder if
- the shareholder received the distribution in good faith
and without knowledge of the company's failure to satisfy
the solvency test
- the shareholder has altered his position in reliance on the validity of
the distribution
- it would be unfair to require repayment in full or at all
- As a result: each shareholder who agreed to or
concurred in the making of the distribution is
personally liable to the company to repay to
the company so much of the distribution as is
not able to be recovered from the shareholders
to whom the distribution was made.
- the Court is satisfied that the company could, by
making a distribution of a lesser amount, have
satisfied the solvency test, the Court may
- permit the shareholder to retain or
- relieve the shareholder from liability in
respect of, an amount equal to the value
of any distribution that could properly
have been made.
