2. Notice of each assessment must be given to the stockholders personally, or by publication once a week for at least 4 weeks, in some newspaper published in the county in which the principal office of the corporation is located or, if the principal office of the corporation is not located in this State, in the county in which the corporation’s registered office is located, and in a newspaper published in the county wherein the property of the corporation is situated if in this State.

3. If, after the notice has been given, any stockholder defaults in the payment of the assessment upon the shares held by the stockholder, so many of those shares may be sold as will be necessary for the payment of the assessment upon all the shares held by the stockholder, together with all costs of advertising and expenses of sale. The sale of the shares must be made at the office of the corporation at public auction to the highest bidder, after a notice thereof published for 4 weeks as directed in this section, and a copy of the notice mailed to each delinquent stockholder if his or her address is known 4 weeks before the sale. At the sale the person who offers to pay the assessment so due, together with the expenses of advertising and sale, for the smallest number of shares, or portion of a share, as the case may be, shall be deemed the highest bidder.
