a case cited with approval in a number of jurisdictions, the New South Wales Court of Appeal was faced with a claim against directors who, on behalf of their company, entered into a lease of the company's premises in favor of themselves for a three-year period with a three-year option at a rental which was well below the current market rental. At the time the company was in a financially precarious state. Shortly after the lease was given the company entered liquidation pursuant to a winding-up order. Subsequently, the liquidator sought a declaration that the lease was voidable. Street C.J., in delivering the leading judgment, found against the directors of the company because of the fact that the company was clearly insolvent when the lease was executed. His Honour left open the door for extending the scope of the duty to encompass other states of financial distress short of insolvency, preferring not to comment on the degree of financial instability required before a duty was imposed on directors, as he was not required to do so given the facts of the case.

What is the difference between a cc and a pty?

# What does "CC" stand for?In South African law "CC" stands for "Close Corporation", a registered juristic entity much like a simplified company.# What does "PTY" stand for?"PTY", usually used in conjunction with "Ltd", thus "(Pty) Ltd", stands for "(Proprietary)". "PTY" representing "Proprietary" means "private ownership". This illustrates one of the main features of PTY LTD Companies: that is, their shareholders are not publically declared, only their directors. Thus the ownership is private.# What does "Ltd" stand for?"Ltd" as used in the designation of a private or public company, for example, either "Bilkovo (Pty) Ltd" or "Bilkovo Ltd", stands for "Limited" and refers to the limitation on the liability of company shareholders and directors.
