Terms Used In Hawaii Revised Statutes 414-85

  • Corporation: A legal entity owned by the holders of shares of stock that have been issued, and that can own, receive, and transfer property, and carry on business in its own name.
  • Shares: means the units into which the proprietary interests in a corporation are divided. See Hawaii Revised Statutes 414-3

A corporation may issue rights, options, or warrants for the purchase of shares of the corporation. The board of directors shall determine the terms upon which the rights, options, or warrants are issued, their form and content, and the consideration for which the shares are to be issued. The documents evidencing such rights, options, or warrants may include conditions that preclude the holder or holders, including any subsequent transferees, of at least a specified percentage of the common shares of a corporation from exercising such rights, options, or warrants.
