Specific areas of substantive change include setting forth procedures for the approval of a business opportunity; defining "disinterested director"; permitting several corporate actions to be taken electronically; updating provisions regarding member voting and elections; indemnifying directors and officers; streamlining the process for combining corporations with other types of business entities; asserting claims against dissolved corporations; and confirming that provisions in corporate documents filed with the State Corporation Commission may be made dependent on statistical or market indices or other objectively ascertainable facts.
