Can a grandfathered bearer share company whose memorandum was amended by operation of law under paragraph 34A(1) amend its memorandum to allow the company to issue bearer shares, convert registered shares to bearer shares or exchange registered shares for bearer shares?

The Act does not prevent a grandfathered bearer share company whose memorandum was amended by operation of law under paragraph 34A(1) of Schedule 2 from amending its memorandum to allow for the issue of bearer shares and the conversion/exchange of bearer shares to registered shares. The provisions of section 13 of the Act would apply and the relevant application form is R204. The amendment would not, however, relate to the disabled bearer shares but to the issue of prospective bearer shares and the conversion/exchange of same to/for registered shares.
