Underlined words

Hi!

Please take a look at the following santence and pay attention to the underlined words. Are these the best choices according to the context (in your opinion)?

Only the general meeting of shareholders shall be entitled to make amendments to the articles of incorporation, take a decision on bringing an action against board member, founder or shareholder, as well as on appointing a company’s representative for conducting a matter at the court, take a decision on winding-up the company, continuing operation or re-organization thereof, other matters which, according to the law and articles of incorporation, shall be transferred into the competency of the general meeting of the shareholders.


I truly appreciate your input! Emotion: smile
Thanks!
