10y ago#1You bind a company by entering into a contract.
According to the old saying, it takes two to tango
It takes two to enter into a contract.
Now one of them is the company (via the director)
Who do you think is "the other party"?
When a director enters into a contract on behalf of a company, even though he may be acting ultra vires, the contract will be enforceable by the third party so long as the third party did not know that the director was acting without authority
the other party is customer supplier or other party to which company is dealing through director
10y ago#3Correct, but wasn't that obvious?
mike if director goes beyond his power which is given to him by article then he is liable to company but that contract which he made to other party on behalf of company is still binding on company is it correct
10y ago#5correct - that's what I've just told you
