(2) If default is made in complying with this section, the company and every director, manager, secretary or other officer of the company who is knowingly a party to the default shall be liable to a fine not exceeding fifty dollars for every day during which the default continues.

69.-(1) Every company shall, within two months after the allotment of any of its shares, debentures, or debenture stock, and within two months after the date on
