Any shareholder with stock certificates
An officer, director, or duly appointed attorney in fact authorized to execute the instrument
Only a county clerk
Correct Answer
C. An officer, director, or duly appointed attorney in fact authorized to execute the instrument
Detailed Explanation
The statute expressly preserves a dissolved-corporation pathway. Real Property Law §309 permits acknowledgment in the case of a dissolved corporation by an officer, director, or duly appointed attorney in fact authorized to execute the instrument. For contrast, an ordinary employee is not enough unless separately authorized and fitting the statute.
