351.300. Fractional shares, how issued. — A corporation may issue fractions of a share and it may issue a certificate for a fractional share, or, by action of its board of directors, may in lieu thereof pay cash equal to the value of such fractional share, or issue scrip or other evidence of ownership which shall entitle the holder to receive a certificate for a full share upon the surrender of such scrip or other evidence of ownership aggregating a full share. A certificate for a fractional share shall (but scrip or other evidence of ownership shall not, unless otherwise provided by resolution of the board of directors) entitle the holder to all of the rights of a shareholder, including without limitation the right to exercise any voting right, or to receive dividends thereon or to participate in any of the assets of the corporation in the event of liquidation. The board of directors may cause such scrip or evidence of ownership (other than a certificate for a fractional share) to be issued subject to the condition that it shall become void if not exchanged for share certificates before a specified date, or subject to the condition that the shares for which such scrip or evidence of ownership is exchangeable may be sold by the corporation and the proceeds thereof distributed to the holders of such scrip or evidence of ownership, or subject to any other conditions which the board of directors may deem advisable.
