mission in writing that he resigns effective as of a specified date shall not
be liable to the corporation for damages resulting from his failure to

ceptance in writing by the corporation, the effective date of such resigna-
tion shall not be less than thirty days from the date of the mailing by first

the president, vice-president or secretary of the corporation and to the
Commission. The names and addresses of such officers on record with
the Commission shall be conclusive for the purposes of this section.
