SECTION 623

Procedure to enforce shareholder's right to receive payment for shares

Business Corporation (BSC) CHAPTER 4, ARTICLE 6

§ 623. Procedure to enforce shareholder's right to receive payment for shares.

(a) A shareholder intending to enforce his right under a section of this chapter to receive payment for his shares if the proposed corporate action referred to therein is taken shall file with the corporation, before the meeting of shareholders at which the action is submitted to a vote, or at such meeting but before the vote, written objection to the action. The objection shall include a notice of his election to dissent, his name and residence address, the number and classes of shares as to which he dissents and a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares if the action is taken. Such objection is not required from any shareholder to whom the corporation did not give notice of such meeting in accordance with this chapter or where the proposed action is authorized by written consent of shareholders without a meeting.

(b) Within ten days after the shareholders' authorization date, which term as used in this section means the date on which the shareholders' vote authorizing such action was taken, or the date on which such consent without a meeting was obtained from the requisite shareholders, the corporation shall give written notice of such authorization or consent by registered mail to each shareholder who filed written objection or from whom written objection was not required, excepting any shareholder who voted for or consented in writing to the proposed action and who thereby is deemed to have elected not to enforce his right to receive payment for his shares.

(c) Within twenty days after the giving of notice to him, any shareholder from whom written objection was not required and who elects to dissent shall file with the corporation a written notice of such election, stating his name and residence address, the number and classes of shares as to which he dissents and a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares. Any shareholder who elects to dissent from a merger under section 905 (Merger of subsidiary corporation) or paragraph (c) of section 907 (Merger or consolidation of domestic and foreign corporations) or from a share exchange under paragraph (g) of section 913 (Share exchanges) shall file a written notice of such election to dissent within twenty days after the giving to him of a copy of the plan of merger or exchange or an outline of the material features thereof under section 905 or 913.

(d) A shareholder may not dissent as to less than all of the shares, as to which he has a right to dissent, held by him of record, that he owns beneficially. A nominee or fiduciary may not dissent on behalf of any beneficial owner as to less than all of the shares of such owner, as to which such nominee or fiduciary has a right to dissent, held of record by such nominee or fiduciary.

(e) Upon consummation of the corporate action, the shareholder shall cease to have any of the rights of a shareholder except the right to be paid the fair value of his shares and any other rights under this section. A notice of election may be withdrawn by the shareholder at any time prior to his acceptance in writing of an offer made by the corporation, as provided in paragraph (g), but in no case later than sixty days from the date of consummation of the corporate action except that if the corporation fails to make a timely offer, as provided in paragraph (g), the time for withdrawing a notice of election shall be extended until sixty days from the date an offer is made. Upon expiration of such time, withdrawal of a notice of election shall require the written consent of the corporation. In order to be effective, withdrawal of a notice of election must be accompanied by the return to the corporation of any advance payment made to the shareholder as provided in paragraph (g). If a notice of election is withdrawn, or the corporate action is rescinded, or a court shall determine that the shareholder is not entitled to receive payment for his shares, or the shareholder shall otherwise lose his dissenters' rights, he shall not have the right to receive payment for his shares and he shall be reinstated to all his rights as a shareholder as of the consummation of the corporate action, including any intervening preemptive rights and the right to payment of any intervening dividend or other distribution or, if any such rights have expired or any such dividend or distribution other than in cash has been completed, in lieu thereof, at the election of the corporation, the fair value thereof in cash as determined by the board as of the time of such expiration or completion, but without prejudice otherwise to any corporate proceedings that may have been taken in the interim.

(f) At the time of filing the notice of election to dissent or within one month thereafter the shareholder of shares represented by certificates shall submit the certificates representing his shares to the corporation, or to its transfer agent, which shall forthwith note conspicuously thereon that a notice of election has been filed and shall return the certificates to the shareholder or other person who submitted them on his behalf. Any shareholder of shares represented by certificates who fails to submit his certificates for such notation as herein specified shall, at the option of the corporation exercised by written notice to him within forty-five days from the date of filing of such notice of election to dissent, lose his dissenter's rights unless a court, for good cause shown, shall otherwise direct. Upon transfer of a certificate bearing such notation, each new certificate issued therefor shall bear a similar notation together with the name of the original dissenting holder of the shares and a transferee shall acquire no rights in the corporation except those which the original dissenting shareholder had at the time of transfer.

(g) Within fifteen days after the expiration of the period within which shareholders may file their notices of election to dissent, or within fifteen days after the proposed corporate action is consummated, whichever is later (but in no case later than ninety days from the shareholders' authorization date), the corporation or, in the case of a merger or consolidation, the surviving or new corporation, shall make a written offer by registered mail to each shareholder who has filed such notice of election to pay for his shares at a specified price which the corporation considers to be their fair value. Such offer shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares with respect to which notices of election to dissent have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. If the corporate action has been consummated, such offer shall also be accompanied by (1) advance payment to each such shareholder who has submitted the certificates representing his shares to the corporation, as provided in paragraph (f), of an amount equal to eighty percent of the amount of such offer, or (2) as to each shareholder who has not yet submitted his certificates a statement that advance payment to him of an amount equal to eighty percent of the amount of such offer will be made by the corporation promptly upon submission of his certificates. If the corporate action has not been consummated at the time of the making of the offer, such advance payment or statement as to advance payment shall be sent to each shareholder entitled thereto forthwith upon consummation of the corporate action. Every advance payment or statement as to advance payment shall include advice to the shareholder to the effect that acceptance of such payment does not constitute a waiver of any dissenters' rights. If the corporate action has not been consummated upon the expiration of the ninety day period after the shareholders' authorization date, the offer may be conditioned upon the consummation of such action. Such offer shall be made at the same price per share to all dissenting shareholders of the same class, or if divided into series, of the same series and shall be accompanied by a balance sheet of the corporation whose shares the dissenting shareholder holds as of the latest available date, which shall not be earlier than twelve months before the making of such offer, and a profit and loss statement or statements for not less than a twelve month period ended on the date of such balance sheet or, if the corporation was not in existence throughout such twelve month period, for the portion thereof during which it was in existence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the corporation shall not be required to furnish a balance sheet or profit and loss statement or statements to any shareholder to whom such balance sheet or profit and loss statement or statements were previously furnished, nor if in connection with obtaining the shareholders' authorization for or consent to the proposed corporate action the shareholders were furnished with a proxy or information statement, which included financial statements, pursuant to Regulation 14A or Regulation 14C of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. If within thirty days after the making of such offer, the corporation making the offer and any shareholder agree upon the price to be paid for his shares, payment therefor shall be made within sixty days after the making of such offer or the consummation of the proposed corporate action, whichever is later, upon the surrender of the certificates for any such shares represented by certificates.

(h) The following procedure shall apply if the corporation fails to make such offer within such period of fifteen days, or if it makes the offer and any dissenting shareholder or shareholders fail to agree with it within the period of thirty days thereafter upon the price to be paid for their shares:

(1) The corporation shall, within twenty days after the expiration of whichever is applicable of the two periods last mentioned, institute a special proceeding in the supreme court in the judicial district in which the office of the corporation is located to determine the rights of dissenting shareholders and to fix the fair value of their shares. If, in the case of merger or consolidation, the surviving or new corporation is a foreign corporation without an office in this state, such proceeding shall be brought in the county where the office of the domestic corporation, whose shares are to be valued, was located.

(2) If the corporation fails to institute such proceeding within such period of twenty days, any dissenting shareholder may institute such proceeding for the same purpose not later than thirty days after the expiration of such twenty day period. If such proceeding is not instituted within such thirty day period, all dissenter's rights shall be lost unless the supreme court, for good cause shown, shall otherwise direct.

(3) All dissenting shareholders, excepting those who, as provided in paragraph (g), have agreed with the corporation upon the price to be paid for their shares, shall be made parties to such proceeding, which shall have the effect of an action quasi in rem against their shares. The corporation shall serve a copy of the petition in such proceeding upon each dissenting shareholder who is a resident of this state in the manner provided by law for the service of a summons, and upon each nonresident dissenting shareholder either by registered mail and publication, or in such other manner as is permitted by law. The jurisdiction of the court shall be plenary and exclusive.

(4) The court shall determine whether each dissenting shareholder, as to whom the corporation requests the court to make such determination, is entitled to receive payment for his shares. If the corporation does not request any such determination or if the court finds that any dissenting shareholder is so entitled, it shall proceed to fix the value of the shares, which, for the purposes of this section, shall be the fair value as of the close of business on the day prior to the shareholders' authorization date. In fixing the fair value of the shares, the court shall consider the nature of the transaction giving rise to the shareholder's right to receive payment for shares and its effects on the corporation and its shareholders, the concepts and methods then customary in the relevant securities and financial markets for determining fair value of shares of a corporation engaging in a similar transaction under comparable circumstances and all other relevant factors. The court shall determine the fair value of the shares without a jury and without referral to an appraiser or referee. Upon application by the corporation or by any shareholder who is a party to the proceeding, the court may, in its discretion, permit pretrial disclosure, including, but not limited to, disclosure of any expert's reports relating to the fair value of the shares whether or not intended for use at the trial in the proceeding and notwithstanding subdivision (d) of section 3101 of the civil practice law and rules.

(5) The final order in the proceeding shall be entered against the corporation in favor of each dissenting shareholder who is a party to the proceeding and is entitled thereto for the value of his shares so determined.

(6) The final order shall include an allowance for interest at such rate as the court finds to be equitable, from the date the corporate action was consummated to the date of payment. In determining the rate of interest, the court shall consider all relevant factors, including the rate of interest which the corporation would have had to pay to borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. If the court finds that the refusal of any shareholder to accept the corporate offer of payment for his shares was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith, no interest shall be allowed to him.

(7) Each party to such proceeding shall bear its own costs and expenses, including the fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts employed by it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the court may, in its discretion, apportion and assess all or any part of the costs, expenses and fees incurred by the corporation against any or all of the dissenting shareholders who are parties to the proceeding, including any who have withdrawn their notices of election as provided in paragraph (e), if the court finds that their refusal to accept the corporate offer was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith. The court may, in its discretion, apportion and assess all or any part of the costs, expenses and fees incurred by any or all of the dissenting shareholders who are parties to the proceeding against the corporation if the court finds any of the following: (A) that the fair value of the shares as determined materially exceeds the amount which the corporation offered to pay; (B) that no offer or required advance payment was made by the corporation; (C) that the corporation failed to institute the special proceeding within the period specified therefor; or (D) that the action of the corporation in complying with its obligations as provided in this section was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith. In making any determination as provided in clause (A), the court may consider the dollar amount or the percentage, or both, by which the fair value of the shares as determined exceeds the corporate offer.

(8) Within sixty days after final determination of the proceeding, the corporation shall pay to each dissenting shareholder the amount found to be due him, upon surrender of the certificates for any such shares represented by certificates.

(i) Shares acquired by the corporation upon the payment of the agreed value therefor or of the amount due under the final order, as provided in this section, shall become treasury shares or be cancelled as provided in section 515 (Reacquired shares), except that, in the case of a merger or consolidation, they may be held and disposed of as the plan of merger or consolidation may otherwise provide.

(j) No payment shall be made to a dissenting shareholder under this section at a time when the corporation is insolvent or when such payment would make it insolvent. In such event, the dissenting shareholder shall, at his option:

(1) Withdraw his notice of election, which shall in such event be deemed withdrawn with the written consent of the corporation; or

(2) Retain his status as a claimant against the corporation and, if it is liquidated, be subordinated to the rights of creditors of the corporation, but have rights superior to the non-dissenting shareholders, and if it is not liquidated, retain his right to be paid for his shares, which right the corporation shall be obliged to satisfy when the restrictions of this paragraph do not apply.

(3) The dissenting shareholder shall exercise such option under subparagraph (1) or (2) by written notice filed with the corporation within thirty days after the corporation has given him written notice that payment for his shares cannot be made because of the restrictions of this paragraph. If the dissenting shareholder fails to exercise such option as provided, the corporation shall exercise the option by written notice given to him within twenty days after the expiration of such period of thirty days.

(k) The enforcement by a shareholder of his right to receive payment for his shares in the manner provided herein shall exclude the enforcement by such shareholder of any other right to which he might otherwise be entitled by virtue of share ownership, except as provided in paragraph (e), and except that this section shall not exclude the right of such shareholder to bring or maintain an appropriate action to obtain relief on the ground that such corporate action will be or is unlawful or fraudulent as to him.

(l) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this section, any notice to be given by a corporation to a shareholder under this section shall be given in the manner provided in section 605 (Notice of meetings of shareholders).

(m) This section shall not apply to foreign corporations except as provided in subparagraph (e) (2) of section 907 (Merger or consolidation of domestic and foreign corporations).

(vi) The existence of a default or an event that, with the giving of notice (1) would constitute a default, under any other indebtedness of Maker for borrowed money or (2) would cause (or would permit any holder of such indebtedness or trustee to cause) such indebtedness, or a portion thereof in an aggregate amount exceeding One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), to become due prior to its stated maturity or prior to its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

(c) Costs and Expenses. If Holder has required Maker to pay immediately in full as described above, Holder will have the right to be paid back for all of its costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law.

(d) Holder’s Remedies. Holder has all the remedies available at law or in equity (including those under the UCC) in the event of Default or if Maker fails to pay the Principal Balance and accrued interest on demand, including but not limited to the following: to make all necessary filings in United States and foreign patent offices to assign ownership of all of Maker’s United States and foreign patents to Holder; to notify account debtors to make payments directly to Holder; to settle or compromise any disputed account, sue on any account and make any agreement to deal with the accounts as if it were owner, to offset any of Maker’s or Guarantor’s funds under the control of Holder against the outstanding balance owed to Holder; and to require Maker to gather up the Collateral and make it available to Holder for Holder to conduct public or private UCC foreclosure sales. Maker grants to Holder a license or other right to use, without charge, Maker’s labels, patents, copyrights, trademarks, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trademarks and advertising materials, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale and selling of Collateral, and Maker’s rights under all licenses and franchise agreements shall inure to Holder’s benefits. If Holder should proceed against the Collateral and sell any of the Collateral on credit, Maker will be credited on remaining Principal Balance and interest balance only with the amount actually received by Holder and Maker waives any and all provisions as to notice or a particular method of sale of any of the Collateral. Holder does not have to incur its own expenses in realizing upon the Collateral, but all the expenses are for the account of Maker. Maker recognizes that at no time is Holder its agent in dealing with the Collateral, but Holder acts only in its own interests. Holder’s rights and remedies under this Loan Promissory Note and Security Agreement and all agreements shall be cumulative. Holder shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Holder of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Holder of any Default on Borrower’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Holder shall constitute a waiver, election or acquiescence by it.

5. Prepayment. Maker has the right to make payment of the unpaid Principal Balance in whole or in part at any time before the Maturity Date ("Prepayment") without any premium or penalty. If Maker intends to make a Prepayment, Maker shall notify Holder in writing in advance of such Prepayment, and any Prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of interest accrued to the date of such Prepayment and all costs, expenses or charges then owed to Holder pursuant to this Note; then Holder shall apply such Prepayment to reducing the outstanding Principal Balance under this Note.

6. Waivers. Maker hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance and enforcement of this Agreement. Any failure or delay by Holder to exercise any right hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at any other time. The waiver by Holder of a breach or default of any provision or term of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach thereof. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right and/or remedy on any future occasion.

7. No Usury. Maker and Holder intend to comply at all times with applicable usury laws. If, at any time, such laws would render usurious any amounts called for under this Note, it is Maker's and Holder's express intention that Maker shall never be required to pay interest on this Note at a rate in excess of the maximum lawful rate then allowed. The provisions of this Section 7 shall control over all other provisions of this Note, which may be in apparent conflict hereunder. Any excess amount shall be immediately refunded by Holder to Maker, and the provisions hereof shall be immediately reformed, and the amounts thereafter collectible under this Note shall be reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any further documents, so as to comply with the then applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for under this Note. Any such refund shall not cure or waive any default by Maker under this Note. The term "applicable law" as used in this Note shall mean the laws of the State of Texas or the laws of the United States, whichever laws allow the greater rate of interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

8. Notice. Any notice that must be given to Maker under this Note shall be given by hand delivery or by certified mail addressed to Maker at 122 Smith Road Kinderhook, New York 12106. Notice shall be delivered or mailed to Maker at a different address only after Maker gives Holder written notice of the different address. Any notice that must be given to Holder under this Note shall be given by hand delivery or by certified mail addressed to Holder at 3818 Fuqua St Houston, Texas 77047. Notice shall be delivered or mailed to Holder at a different address only after Holder gives Maker written notice of the different address.

9. Extensions/Renewals. Holder may in its sole and absolute discretion, without notice and without releasing the liability of Maker, grant extensions and/or renewals hereof from time to time or for any term or terms. Holder shall not be liable for or prejudiced by failure to collect or lack of diligence in bringing suit on this Note or any renewal or extension hereof, and the acceptance at any time by Holder of any past-due amount shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require prompt payment when due of any other amounts then or thereafter due and payable.

10. Assignment. This Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Maker, Holder and their respective heirs, successors, assigns, and legal representatives; provided however that Maker may not assign or transfer its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Holder, such consent may be withheld at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder. This Note may be assigned by Holder without the consent of Maker. Any party who takes this Note by assignment or transfer and who is entitled to receive payments under this Note shall be considered to be the Holder.

11. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Note contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and includes all of the oral and written agreements, representations, and arrangements between the parties with respect to the obligations to be incurred by Maker herein, and no other representations or warranties are made or implied except as expressly set forth in this Note. This Note may not be changed or amended orally, but only by an agreement in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

12. Captions. All paragraph and subparagraph captions are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction of any provision herein.

13. Governing Law and Venue. Except as specifically provided in Section 7, this Note shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas without regard to any conflict of law principles. The federal and state courts of the State of Texas shall have sole and exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from this Note.

14. Release. Maker and Guarantor release and forever discharge Holder, its affiliates, officers, agents, employees and directors from any and all claims of any kind whatsoever from the beginning of time through the date of this Loan, Promissory Note and Security Agreement.

15. Severability. If any provision of this Note shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Note, but this Note shall be construed as if this Note had never contained the invalid or unenforceable provision.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Maker has executed this Promissory Note and Security Agreement on the day and year first above written.
