For key company decisions, a company often needs to seek the approval of its board of directors or shareholders. A company resolution is formal approval of certain decisions made by the board or company shareholders who are entitled to vote on the matter at hand.
I hereby consent to act as a director of the Company with effect from the date of this letter. I am not, nor have I been, disqualified from acting as a director of a company, nor have I performed any acts, nor are there any circumstances, pursuant to which I could be so disqualified.
Typically, decisions that must made by ordinary resolution of the shareholders include: Paying dividends. Appointing and removing directors. Approving directors' service contracts. Approving directors' loans. Allotting new shares.
Board resolutions deal with operational and management decisions, while shareholder resolutions address more significant, often strategic, matters affecting the company.
A Stockholder Consent is the authorization of stockholders to carry out a specific corporate action. For example, a Stockholder Consent is used to elect or remove a member of the Board of Directors, approve a merger, and implement a Stock Incentive Plan (SIP).
