Form Overview
The Written Consent in Lieu of Annual Meeting of Shareholders documents four resolutions as the typical standards for annual shareholder action. The first resolution recognizes the financial statement for the corporation. The second resolution elects the board of directors by name for a specified time. The third resolution ratifies the annual resolutions adopted by the board of directors. A general resolution ratifying the actions of the corporation for the fiscal year is included in the format. Finally, a resolution establishing the date of the consent is available. If the written consent is not required by all of the shareholders, the non-participating minority must be apprised of these actions within the period prescribed by law. The availability and content of the written consent format varies according to state law and you will want to have local counsel review your draft before formal adoption. You can find answers to your questions using our extensive library of
audio questions and answers.
