Title
Corporations, stock, issuance in fractional shores reg., issuance of scrip in bearer form prohibited, Sec. 10A-2A-6.04 am'd.
Description

Under existing law, a corporation in the State of Alabama may issue fractions of a share of stock in registered or bearer form. A scrip in bearer form is a certificate representing a fraction of a share of stock that is not registered in the issuing corporation's books.

This bill would prohibit a corporation from issuing scrip in bearer form, thereby requiring a corporation to register all issued scrip of fractional stock.

This bill would also provide that a corporation that issues or transfers scrip in uncertificated form shall comply with the appropriate notice requirements.
