The directors may dispose of the shares to an existing shareholder or shareholders at a price to be agreed between you and the directors, or determined in accordance with the company’s Articles of Association (clause 9). If within 28 days of the notice the directors are unable to find any shareholders will to purchase all or some of the shares, you may dispose of them as you think fit within 3 months from the date of the notice.

All shares are owned by individuals named on the share certificate. They are not in any way linked to the property to which a shareholder owns. Therefore it is only the individual or individuals named on the share certificate, who can dispose (transfer sell) of their shares.
The procedure for the disposal of shares applies whether you are selling or transferring shares without payment. In both cases a Stock Transfer Form needs to be completed. Stock Transfer Forms can be acquired from solicitors or downloaded from the Internet.
