2. Juan dela Cruz, is a director of both ABC and XYZ Corporations. He owns 1% of the outstanding capital stock of ABC and 40% of XYZ. ABC plans to enter into a contract with XYZ that will both companies earn substantial profits. The contract is presented to the board of both corporations.a.

3. XYZ Corp is in need of land used in the expansion of its business. Jose Cruz owns a piece of land ideal for the purpose and the corporation offers to buy it . As payment Jose Cruz will be paid in shares of stocks of the corporation. The board decided to accept the terms of Cruze but since that authorized capital stock of the corporation has been fully paid, it proposes to increase the authorized capital stock so it can consummate the sale. Thus, proposal of issuance of new shares was submitted to the stockholder’s special meeting for the purpose.

Pedro Reyes, who has 100 shares in the corporation, insists that the corporation allocate to him his proportionate share of the new issue which he offers to pay in case, alleging his pre-emptive right. Holders of 80% of the outstanding capital stock are in favor of the proposal to increase the capital stock including the exchange of land for new shares of stock.

Is Pedro within his rights in claiming a pre-emptive right?
