consist OF 5000 shares OF $50 each N

that no person except a policy holder
shall be q director; that no one share
shall be held by any single person
who must be a policy holder; that each
annual election. seven policy holders
who have not previously served, shall
be chosen. and that the trustees be
directed and empowered to offer for
sale at $1,000 share, the 5000 shares
contemplated by the amended chartef
70 the 5000 largest policy holders and
in the event OF any such offer not be-
ing accepted. then to continue to OF
fer said shares to the next largest
