Signing of documents by or on behalf of company (2) Without limiting subsection (1), this Division applies to a document (including a deed) to be signed by a person: (a) exercising the powers of a company under section 126 (making of contracts and execution of documents by an agent); or (b) under section 127 (execution of documents by a company).
