I currently have around £60,000 worth of debt and will be applying for bankruptcy soon.
I have just resigned as a company director but still 1/3 of the company as a shareholder along with 2 other people. (They want to keep company running) but insisted I regign as a director prior to BR...fair enough.
The company has yet to make a profit and a wage hasn't been drawn from the company since Oct 2007.
My question is...what happens to the shares?
The other 2 directors tried to make me sign the shares over to them upon my resignation but I was worried about how the OR would view this and refused. I know the shares are probably worthless but I didn't want the OR to think I am trying to fleece him.

Any thoughts on what I should do?

Hi Egnt77 and welcome to the forum.

The key question here is regarding the value of the shares. You are quite correct in your assumption that the OR would take a dim view of signing the sares over without payment as it would be deemed as a transaction undervalue.

Given your situation, I would recommend you have a chat with Brett England of England, Jackman & Spacey(the link to his website is on the experts page) as he has a wealth of experience in these matters.

Hope this helps!

Regards
