of payment for stock.
AMENDMENT OF CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION BEFORE
RECEIPT OF PAYMENT FOR STOCK
A.  Before a corporation has received any payment for any of its
stock, or before it has any members, as applicable, it may amend its
certificate of incorporation at any time or times, in any and as
many respects as may be desired, so long as its certificate of
incorporation as amended would contain only such provisions as it
would be lawful and proper to insert in an original certificate of
incorporation filed at the time of filing the amendment.
B.  The amendment of certificate of incorporation authorized by
the provisions of this section shall be adopted by a majority of the
incorporators, if directors were not named in the original
certificate of incorporation or have not yet been elected, or, if
directors were named in the original certificate of incorporation or
have been elected and have qualified, by a majority of the
directors.  A certificate setting forth the amendment and certifying
that the corporation has not received any payment for any of its
stock, or that the corporation has no members, as applicable, and
that the amendment has been duly adopted in accordance with the

provisions of this section shall be executed, acknowledged and filed
in accordance with the provisions of Section 1007 of this title.
Upon such filing, the corporation's certificate of incorporation
shall be deemed to be amended accordingly as of the date on which
the original certificate of incorporation became effective, except
as to those persons who are substantially and adversely affected by
the amendment and as to those persons the amendment shall be
effective from the filing date.
C.  This section shall apply to a nonstock corporation before
such a corporation has any members; provided, however, that all
references to directors shall be deemed to be references to members
of the governing body of the corporation.
