Chap. 364.—An ACT to provide the method of amending the charters of corpora-
tions chartered for the purpose of and engaged in conducting hospitals, the
stock of which is nondividend paying, when the corporation is unable to con-
vene a meeting of its stockholders. [S B 239]
Approved March 26, 1932
1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That when-
ever any corporation, chartered for the purpose of and engaged in con-
ducting a hospital, the stock of which is by the provisions of its charter
nondividend paying, shall desire to amend the charter of said corpora-
tion and shall not be able, for lack of records or otherwise, to convene
a meeting of the stockholders for the purpose of passing upon such
amendment, if a majority of the acting directors, trustees or managers
of such corporation, at a meeting held for the purpose after mailing
to each director, trustee, or manager, at least ten days before the time
of the meeting, a notice signed by the president of the corporation,
giving the time and place of meeting and the purpose thereof, shall vote
in favor of such amendment or amendments, and shall by resolution
declare that the corporation for lack of records or otherwise is unable
to convene a meeting of its stockholders, a certificate thereof shall be
made by the president, or one of the vice-presidents, under the seal of
the corporation, attested by the secretary, and acknowledged by them
before an officer authorized by the laws of this State to take acknowl-
edgments of deeds; and such certificate, with a receipt for the fees,
if any, imposed by law, shall be presented to the State corporation
commission, which shall ascertain and declare whether the said ap-
plicant, by complying with the requirements of law, is entitled to the
amendment or amendments set forth in said certificate, and shall issue
or refuse the same accordingly. If the same is issued, the said cer-
tificate, with the endorsements thereon, together with the order of the
commission, shall be forthwith certified, as required by law, to the
clerk of the court in which the original certificate of incorporation is
recorded, or if it be a legislative charter the clerk in whose office it
would have been recorded if the original charter had been granted by
the court or the State corporation commission, and the clerk of such
court shall thereupon record the same in his office, in a book provided
and kept for that purpose, and shall endorse the fact of such recorda-
tion upon such certificate, and return the same to the State corporation
commission, to be lodged and preserved in the office of its clerk. As
soon as the said certificate is lodged for recordation in the office of the
State corporation commission, the original certificate of incorporation
shall be deemed to be amended accordingly; but such certificate of
amendment shall contain only such provisions as it would be lawful and
proper to insert in an original certificate of incorporation made at the
time of making such amendment. _ ,
