(b) If a certificate for shares of any close corporation conspicuously notes the fact of a restriction on transfer of shares of the corporation and the restriction is one which is permitted by the Alabama Business Corporation Law, the transferee of the shares is conclusively presumed to have notice of the fact that he or she has acquired shares in violation of the restriction, if such acquisition violates the restriction.
(c) Whenever any person to whom shares of a close corporation have been issued or transferred has, or is conclusively presumed under this section to have notice either that he or she is a person not eligible to be a holder of shares of the corporation, or that the transfer of shares is in violation of a restriction on transfer of shares, the corporation may, at its option, refuse to register transfer of the shares into the name of the transferee in addition to any remedies which may be available under the Alabama Business Corporation Law.
(d) The provisions of subsection (c) shall not be applicable if the transfer of shares even though otherwise contrary to subsections (a) or (b), has been consented to by all the shareholders of the close corporation, or if the close corporation has amended its certificate of formation in accordance with Section 10A-30-2.04.
