North Dakota Century Code Title 10. Corporations § 10-15-21. Stock certificates

Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

No stock certificate may be issued except upon payment of at least the par value of the stock it represents. No cooperative may issue stock or bonds except for money, labor done, or money or property actually received. All fictitious increases of stock or indebtedness are void. If payment for stock is not in money, the board shall determine the value of the consideration and the determination, if made in good faith, is conclusive.

Each certificate for stock must bear the manual or facsimile signature of a principal officer and must state:

1. The name of the cooperative; the number, par value, and class of the shares represented by the certificate; and whether or not it is membership stock.

2. Any restrictions on the issuance or transfer of the stock, including those provided by law and the articles.

3. If more than one class of stock is authorized, the designation of the several classes and their respective preferences, limitations, and relative rights. In lieu of the full statement, this information may be given in summary form or the certificate may state that the cooperative will, upon request, furnish the information required by this subsection.
