How does Proxy Voting work in practice?
As the deal lead, when drafting a deal you’ll have the option to decide whether to proxy voting rights away from your investors and to another party (either the Founder of your company, or the Chairman of the Board).
Odin's proxies specifically allow the ability to vote or attend AGMs and sign written resolutions, but not deeds. In order to sign deeds yourself, you would need to seek a full ‘Power of Attorney’ rather than a proxy.
Additionally, for events where the underlying investors are transferring any shares, the investors must always give consent, regardless of the proxy.
