What should corporate resolutions include? Your corporation's name. Date, time and location of meeting. Statement of unanimous approval of resolution. Confirmation that the resolution was adopted at a regularly called meeting. Resolution. Statement authorizing officers to carry out the resolution.
Your Initial Resolutions are a legal document stating who has control over your LLC, which can be used to prove LLC ownership. This document needs to be signed by the organizer of your LLC (the person who signed the Articles of Organization).
The initial resolutions for the board of managers of an LLC are official documents that record the key decisions made by the board when your LLC was first formed. These include decisions like the appointment of officers, issuing membership units, and how conflicts of interest will be managed.
Single-member LLCs do not need resolutions, but they can still come in handy in certain situations, like if the company must defend itself in court. Documenting changes or actions not covered in the original bylaws or articles of incorporation can help an LLC protect itself from lawsuits or judicial investigations.
The law does not require an LLC Resolution to be notarized or witnessed by any third parties. In concept, there could be a requirement within a certain limited liability company which does require it – but that would be uncommon.
Most LLC Resolutions include the following sections: Date, time, and place of the meeting. Owners or members present. The nature of business or resolution to discuss, including members added or removed, loans made, new contracts written, or changes in business scope or method.
LLC resolutions should be signed by all members or authorized representatives of the LLC who are involved in the decision or action being documented in the resolution.
Typically, a board of directors will create corporate resolutions and sign them at a board meeting. Before the meeting, all board members should receive a meeting agenda that includes any decisions or actions to be resolved. Resolutions must follow a format approved by the state where the business is registered.
