Equity Securities (shares)• Articles of Incorporation usually specify the number

of authorized shares and the classes of stock.– Authorized capital can not be increased/ decreased

without amending the articles– The Board can choose to issue all, part or none of the

authorized stock.– Until shares of stock have been issued, they are

“authorized but unissued” shares. Afterward they are “issued and outstanding”

– Any issuance of stock in violation of state corporate law is voidable (not void) at the option of the recipient shareholder

• Stock can be issued for cash, property (tangible or intangible) or past services rendered. RMBCA permits stock to be issued for promissory notes and future services. Value decided by board, business judgment. As long as no fraud, courts wont interfere with value of cconsideration
