Shareholders may authorize dissolution by their unanimous written consent. This does not require any action of the board of direc- tors and does not require a shareholders meeting. Shareholder authorization may also be by vote at a shareholders meeting or by less than unanimous consent, in writing, without a meeting.

To comply with corporation formalities, the board of directors should draft and approve the resolution to dissolve. Shareholders then vote on the director-approved resolution. Both actions should be documented and placed in the corporate record book.

Write a statement of consent. List the resolutions. Conclude with a statement of resolution. Proofread the document.
