SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Corporate action without board meeting. Establishes a procedure by which actions of the board of directors of a nonstock corporation may be taken without a meeting by fewer than all of the directors if authorized in the articles of incorporation. Such action without a meeting of the board requires the consent of a majority or quorum of the members of the board. Action under this procedure by fewer than all of the directors requires the corporation to give written notice of the proposed corporate action to all directors not less than 10 business days before the action is taken. Such action is not permitted if any director objects to the taking of such proposed action within 10 business days after notice of the proposed action is given.
