Resolution authorizing assessment
The directors of the corporation may by resolution authorize the assessment or charge to be made in any fiscal year of the corporation pursuant to the provisions of section 1 hereof.
Each shareholder on record of the corporation shall be informed of any such assessment or charge by a written notice mailed postage prepaid to the latest address of the shareholder as shown on the records of the corporation, which notice shall specify the date by which the assessment or charge must be paid.
Any such assessment or charge made against the holder of a common share and unpaid by the said holder shall be a debt due to the corporation, and the corporation has a lien on each share so assessed in the amount of the unpaid assessment, and the corporation may refuse to approve the sale or assignment of such share until the assessment or charge has been paid.
If any such assessment or charge made under this Act remains unpaid after the date for payment specified in the notice sent to each shareholder in accordance with section 3 hereof, the board of directors may cancel the share and return it to the corporation, and the corporation may reissue the share to a new shareholder.
