KRS 355.8-210: Overissue.
Where this section sits in the code
(1) In this section, "overissue" means the issue of securities in excess of the amount the
issuer has corporate power to issue, but an overissue does not occur if appropriate
action has cured the overissue.
(2) Except as otherwise provided in subsections (3) a nd (4) of this section, the
provisions of this article which validate a security or compel its issue or reissue do
not apply to the extent that validation, issue, or reissue would result in overissue.
(3) If an identical security not constituting an overis sue is reasonably available for
purchase, a person entitled to issue or validation may compel the issuer to purchase
the security and deliver it if certificated or register its transfer if uncertificated,
against surrender of any security certificate the person holds.
(4) If a security is not reasonably available for purchase, a person entitled to issue or
validation may recover from the issuer the price the person or the last purchaser for
value paid for it with interest from the date of the person's demand.
