Fixed and pushed to master. I presume it does not matter in a case like this, that the presidency cannot actually be dumped, because no one else owns 20%. The change effectively means, that a company president may now sell a just bought certificate, unless the number of held shares would become zero. All other limitations of course still apply. In the reported case, Fontana can now sell up to 30% instead of 20%.
