- Corporations are restricted from issuing no par shares, with exceptions for banks, trust companies, stock exchanges, and insurance companies.
- Board of Directors can fill vacancies resulting from stockholder removal, term expiry, or an increase in directors.
- Elections under the Revised Corporation Code must be reported within specific timeframes, typically 10 to 30 days, with a stipulated timeframe for rescheduling.
Types of Corporations
- Eleemosynary corporations focus on charitable purposes.
- Publicly relevant corporations must ensure independent directors make up a minimum percentage of their board, typically around 20%.
- Private corporations operate for profit, while quasi-public corporations serve both public and private interests.
Legal Framework
- The doctrine of piercing the corporate veil allows courts to disregard a corporation's separate legal personality in cases of fraud or public convenience.
- De jure corporations are immune from government attacks, while de facto corporations can be directly challenged.
Financial Aspects of Corporations
- Treasury shares neither receive dividends nor have voting rights and can be reissued.
- Gratuitous issuance of treasury shares results in capital surplus.
- Par value shares offer protection for creditors, maintaining unpaid subscriber liabilities.
Contracts and Obligations
- A contract’s binding nature requires mutual agreement, often distinguished by the reliance on autonomy and relativity in obligations.
- Onerous contracts are interpreted against the party that made them onerous.
- Chattel mortgages and pledges create distinct rights and obligations; a valid chattel mortgage requires registration to be enforceable.
Cooperative Organizations
- Cooperatives must be formed with a minimum capital requirement, and procedures for membership termination typically include death, insanity, or insolvency.
- The general assembly serves as the highest authority in cooperative governance, requiring a quorum of voting members for valid decisions.
Sale and Transfer of Property
- Contracts involving sale and barter are distinguished by the transfer of ownership, which occurs upon delivery for sales.
- Future inheritances cannot be contracted for sale as the seller has no ownership rights until after the predecessor's death.
- Delivery to a carrier typically signifies ownership transfer, barring specific conditions related to the sale terms.
Duties and Responsibilities in Partnerships
- Partners must share profits unless agreements designate otherwise, and a partner's action can dissolve the partnership if done without consensus.
- Any decision taken by partners regarding shared property must account for the interests of all partners involved.
Legal Remedies and Liabilities
- The analysis of fraudulent behavior within contracts requires both serious and mutual agreement on the actions taken.
- A proposal that substitutes a debtor without consent may still hold the original debtor liable upon the new debtor's default if accepted by the creditor.
