§ BO.21.251. REDUCTION OF STATED CAPITAL BY REDEMPTION OR PURCHASE OF REDEEMABLE SHARES

REDUCTION OF STATED CAPITAL BY REDEMPTION OR PURCHASE OF REDEEMABLE SHARES. (a) At the time a corporation redeems or purchases the redeemable shares of the corporation, the redemption or purchase has the effect of: (1) canceling the shares; and (2) restoring the shares to the status of authorized but unissued shares, unless the corporation's certificate of formation provides that shares may not be reissued after the shares are redeemed or purchased by the corporation. (b) If the corporation is prohibited from reissuing the shares by the certificate of formation following a redemption or purchase under Subsection (a), the number of shares of the class that the corporation is authorized to issue is reduced by the number of shares canceled. (c) If shares redeemed or purchased by a corporation under Subsection (a) constitute all of the outstanding shares of a particular class of shares and the certificate of formation provides that the shares of the class, when redeemed and repurchased, may not be reissued, the corporation may not issue any additional shares of the class of shares. (d) Upon the redemption or purchase of redeemable shares under this section, the stated capital of the corporation shall be reduced by that part of the stated capital that was, at the time of the redemption or purchase, represented by those redeemable shares.
