Could any stockholder, at his pleasure, pull-out the machines and equipment, following the sale
of his shares to a third party?
NO. The property of a corporation is not the property of its stockholders or members. Under the trust fund
doctrine, thecapital stock, property, and other assets of a corporation are regarded as equity in trust for the
payment of corporatecreditors which are preferred over the stockholders in the distribution of corporate
assets. The distribution of corporateassets and property cannot be made to depend on the whims and
caprices of the stockholders, officers, or directors ofthe corporation unless the indispensable conditions and
procedures for the protection of corporate creditors arefollowed. (YAMAMOTO vs. NISHINO LEATHER
