I don't think the "shareholders" can be paid on a 1099  by a C-corp... they receive dividends on a 1099-div since they own stock in the company.  Officers would be employees and are to be paid on a W-2.

I highly advise you seek a qualified CPA &/or tax attorney to correct this mess.

A agree, you should go to a tax professional.  The officers ARE W-2 employees, not Independent Contractors that receive a 1099-MISC.
