  1. Every high-priced issue is valid regardless of issuer
  2. A voting class overrides all other restrictions
  3. The utility falls within an expressly prohibited no-par issuer category; those separate features do not remove that bar.
  4. A board resolution repeals the Code
  5. Only the paper’s color determines validity
