Under Russian law, shareholders agreement is a contract concerning the rights certified by shares, and / or the characteristics of rights to shares, which is an important document in the event of, for example, situations where a shareholder (shareholders) having a blocking stake, prevents normal of society. The agreement is to establish a full or partial control over decision-making in society, getting more of the rights holder of shares than expected, reducing the number corporate conflicts, increasing transparency and efficiency of joint-stock company, and to some extent, and anti-raiding.
