21-03.1-04. Signatures
1. Any certificated registered public obligation signed by the authorized officers at the
time of the signing thereof remains valid and binding, notwithstanding that before the
issuance thereof any or all of such officers have ceased to fill their respective offices.
2. Any authorized officer empowered to sign any certificated registered public obligation
may adopt as and for the signature of such officer the signature of a predecessor in
office in the event that such predecessor's signature appears on such certificated
registered public obligation. An authorized officer incurs no liability by adoption of a
predecessor's signature that would not be incurred by such authorized officer if the
signature were that of such authorized officer.
