Question:
Ross owns a licence to extract minerals from a tract of land which is known to be rich in mineral deposits. To fund his venture and start digging and extraction operations, Ross needs to acquire funds from investors. Ross plans to register a company called Friends Pty Ltd and find investors to become shareholders in the new venture. Ross did not pay much money to acquire the extraction licence, so he will surely make a lot of money if the extraction proceeds. His plan is for he and his wife to become directors in Friends Pty Ltd.
Required: Answer the following questions:
(a) What are Ross’ duties as a promoter to his co-investors?
(b) What actions should Ross take to set up Friends Pty Ltd?
