§ 306. Temporary board of directors. 1. The first annual meeting of

stock of such corporation shall have been paid into its treasury and a
minimum of ten members of such corporation shall have qualified as
hereinafter provided, and such meeting shall be called in such manner as
may be provided by the temporary board of directors.

2. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, until the

corporate powers of such corporation shall be exercised by a temporary
board of directors consisting of thirteen persons, all of whom shall be
of full age, citizens of the United States and residents of this state,
and who shall be designated by the governor. Such designation shall be

the secretary of state who shall make and record in his office a copy of
such designation and deliver the original to the designee, who, if he

fact, in writing, and thereupon his designation shall become effective
and the secretary of state shall record such acceptance in his office.
If any vacancy occurs in such temporary board of directors through
death, resignation or otherwise, a person shall be designated to fill
such vacancy by the governor. Upon the election and qualification of a
board of directors pursuant to section three hundred five of this
article, the temporary board of directors shall be deemed dissolved.

comprising the temporary board has become effective, the temporary board
