Key legal question
Whether the Bern courts had territorial jurisdiction despite an alleged seat transfer to Ticino
Extracted holding
The seat-transfer resolution of 24 July 2007 was void because not all shareholders were present or represented; the company therefore remained seated in Bern and Bernese courts were competent.
Extracted reasoning
A universal meeting under Art. 701 OR requires all shareholders or their representatives. Absence of even one shareholder is a serious formal defect leading to nullity; the resolution could not be converted into an ordinary general meeting because no valid convocation occurred.
