• NO PAR SHARES
  
  Shares issued under a traditional par value statute that are stated to have no par value. Such shares may be issued for consideration designated by the board of directors. Note that the value of no par shares is determined by the state for franchise tax purposes and may result in higher franchise taxes in comparison with low par-value stock.
