Oppression in a quasi-partnership family company arises where a founder and substantial shareholder is excluded from management and profit-related benefits without due process or justification. Permitted competition under an exit settlement, absent misuse of company data or employee solicitation, did not justify exclusion. In the absence of proof that board-meeting notices or minutes were served, non-attendance did not establish vacation of the directorship. The oppression finding was therefore sustained.
