Option D. David is a stockholder, and Max is a bondholder

Explanation:

The reason is that the David is has $10000 worth of ownership in the Nina's business which gives him right to receive share of the profit and risk of an equal share of loss as well. These are the characteristics of shareholders hence he is a stockholder.

On the other hand, Max is a bondholder because he owns a bond in th company which gives him a right to receive to a fixed share of annual return irrespective of its return. These are the characteristics of bondholders hence he is a bondholder.
