Besides the suit for damages suffered personally, shareholders may, either individually, or
collectively, file a derivative lawsuit against the directors.
Where they represent at least one-twentieth of the stated capital, shareholders may, in the
common interest,designate, at their own cost, oneor several of them to represent them, both as
plaintiffs and defendants, in the derivative lawsuit.

voluntarily, or due to the loss of shareholder status, has no effecton the continuation of the said
suit for liability.
The plaintiffs shall be eligible to seek compensation for the entire loss suffered by the company,
if any, to whichdamages are awarded.
