“Explaining who counts as a shareholder or entitled person under this law”
In this part of the law, when you see the words “entitled person,” “former shareholder,” or “shareholder,” they mean more than just the actual person. These terms also include people who represent them, like someone who manages their affairs. They also include people who got the shares because of something that happened by law, not because they bought them. This applies unless the context of the law says it should mean something different.
