Form with which the Directors of a corporation waive the necessity of an annual meeting of directors.
Board Meetings shall be held at the head office and during the office hours of the Company or at any other appropriate place and time convenient for the Directors to attend. The subject matters of Board Meetings shall be decided by the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
The job of a board of directors is to provide oversight for the company, which means they need to be regularly updated on the company's status and recent developments. For this reason, most boards meet at least once a quarter.
Unless the directors determine otherwise, the quorum for a directors' meeting is 2 directors and the quorum must be present at all times during the meeting.
If the director of the company remains absent in all the Board meetings held within 12 months with or without seeking a leave of absence he needs to vacate the office of director. Such 12 months is not a calendar or accounting or a financial or previous year or any other year.
Directors have a nondelegable duty to attend board meetings. Missing an occasional meeting is not a problem, but habitually missing meetings or refusing to attend is a breach of their fiduciary duties.
(i) There is no statutory requirement to have any specific minimum number of Board meetings per year, although Directors will need to be satisfied that they are meeting sufficiently regularly to fulfil their duties under the Act. (ii) Directors have a duty to attend meetings where they are reasonably able to do so.
A Board Meeting is a formal meeting of the board of directors of an organization and any invited guests, held at definite intervals and as needed to review performance, consider policy issues, address major problems and perform the legal business of the board.
In such cases, the vacation of the director's office may not be enforceable. In conclusion, it is important for directors to attend Board meetings, as failure to attend all meetings for 12 months will result in the automatic vacating of their office.
Here's a look at the procedure for calling an emergency board meeting: Review Board Bylaws. Submit a Written Notice. Specify the Meeting Agenda, Location, and Time. Capture Board Meeting Minutes. Leverage Board Meeting Technology.
