Legislative Research Commission Note. Although references to the sale of "shares" were deleted in the Senate committee substitute, due to a clerical error, such reference was not deleted in subsection (1) of this section. The Reviser of Statutes, pursuant to KRS 7.136, has removed the words "or shares" to conform.
