The MD is stated to have accepted agreement to sell and signed the document on behalf of company as "Director" of the company which cannot be termed as "individual" vendee.

Presumably the MD must have been authorised by all stakeholders of the company to execute the agreement for and on behalf of company, consequently it is binding on all the "Directors" of vendee company.

It is better to consult a local prudent lawyer with relevant records for apprecition of facts / documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding
