OPINION

LANGDON, Justice.

The sole question presented by this appeal is whether or not the trial court erred in ruling that Art. 2.29D of the Texas Business Corporation Act, amended in 1961 and effective June 1, 1964, V.A.T.S., providing for cumulative voting of directors, was applicable to and governed the election of relators as directors of the Burkburnett (State) Bank.

Being of the opinion it did, we reverse and render.
