Incorporators

The incorporators are the designated founders of the company. The incorporators are also the first directors.

The incorporators must be 18 years of age or older. In addition, the majority of the incorporators must ordinarily be residents of Canada.

This incorporation process allows from one to three incorporators. To add new directors after the incorporation, see Appoint Director.

Share Capital

The incorporation process does not involve the allotment of company shares. Before shares can be allotted, the company must first incorporate. To allot shares once incorporated, either to the founders or to new shareholders, use Minute Book or Share Allotment.

This incorporation process automatically determines the authorized capital of the company to consist of an unlimited number of Common shares without par value. Thus, the company has only one class of shares, and the company is entitled to issue as many of these shares as it sees fit.

Beyond the voting, dividend and dissolution rights prescribed by the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), there are no special rights or restrictions attached to these shares. The only exception is the restrictions arising from the Articles of Incorporation. The Articles place restrictions on the issue, transfer and ownership of shares to preserve the status of the corporation as a private company. These include:

i. all share transfers must be authorized by a majority of the directors;
ii. the number of shareholders is limited to 50, with some exceptions; and,
iii. shares may not be offered to the public.

Should you wish to remove these restrictions at a later date, you should only do so after consulting a lawyer.


Directors

The Articles of Incorporation automatically stipulate the allowable number of directors to be from one to five.
