The resolution shall be adopted upon receiving at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by the members present. Upon membership adoption of the resolution, the Corporation shall cease to conduct its affairs, except as may be necessary to notify creditors, collect assets, and apply and distribute them, pursuant to a resolution duly adopted, as provided by the Mississippi Code of 1972, as amended.

 

No plan of dissolution of assets may be adopted which allows such assets to be distributed in any manner or to any organization(s) other than in such a manner which disposes of all assets of the Corporation. Such assets may be distributed only to such organizations organized and operated exclusively for the purpose of artistic endeavors. Such group(s) shall at the time of dissolution qualify as an exempt organization(s) under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law).
