2 steps in dissolution

1. termination of corporate existence - kapag nadissolve na, hindi na

pwede magcontinue ng normal operations of business
2. winding up/ liquidation - debts of corp are paid and assets are
distributed to stockholders
[first phase- existing parin ang corp but only to wind up its affairs
(parang sa partnership din lang ngay)
second phase- after nung winding up, dito na mamamatay ung
corporation]
pwede magstart ng ibang corp ang shareholders, unless may stipulation
sa contract like:
noncompete clauses

2 Types of Dissolution:
1. Voluntary
2 ways voluntary
1. Filing an application to SEC (request or petition)
--- 2 situations ulit
a... creditors not affected
Verified Request
==BOD majority vote, ratified by majority of ocs arrived by a meeting
which is noticed atleast 20 days prior to meeting, and the notice must
be also published once in a newspaper where principal office of corp
is located.. kung wala, any newspaper of general circulation
!!!publication is necessary for protection of creditors

15 days, without withdrawal, maiissue and certificate of dissolution

which signifies na madidisolve na talaga ang corporation

b... creditors affected

Verified Petition
===signed by majority of board, verified by pres and secretary,
ratified by atleast 2/3 of ocs or members of corporation
ORDER of SEC
=published once a week for 3 consecutive weeks in the newspaper of
general circulation and posted in 3 consecutive weeks in 3 public
places in the municipality of the principal office of the corp

Purpose:
--- allow for objections to be filed to the dissolution
Objection must be given 30-60 days only from the time the order was
issued by the SEC

after 5 days na angexpire na ung date of objections, SEC will hear the
petition tas magdedecide na siya sa mga issue kung may objection...
[hearing is required]
If walang sufficient na objection tas material nmn ung allegation sa
petition edi okay na madissolve ung corporation.. papayagan na ng SEC
pero siyempre may hustisya.. ung mga receivers/creditors makakacollect
ng assets or paybacks...
Note: tsaka lang talaga madidisolve kapag may certificate of
Dissolution na ha

2. amending the AoI to shorten the corporate term

Submit the amended articles
after nun, dissolution will automatically take effect on the day
pagkatapos nung shortened corporate term, no need na ng Certificate of
dissolution na inissue ni SEC

2. Involuntary

delinquent corporation
deemed revoked and certificate of incorporation pero hindi autimatic.
Need pa ng order ng SEC after notice at hearing
Note: dapat ideclare ng SEC

b. continous inoperation
nagcommence tas nagstop -- delinquent status (2 years to resume and
comply with all th requirements of the SEC, upon compliance, the SEC
