Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

a.
Preemptive rights are shareholders' rights to purchase a pro rata share of newly issued stock.



b. Preemptive rights are more important in a closely held corporation than in a publicly traded one. This is because a closely held corporation usually has only a few shareholders. The proportionate share owned by each shareholder is significant in determining who will control the corporation. In the absence of preemptive rights, a shareholder may be unable to prevent a dilution of his ownership interest in the corporation.
