Description

In Nevada, a Shareholders Resolution and a Board Resolution serve distinct purposes within a corporation. A Shareholders Resolution is typically voted on by shareholders to address significant corporate matters, such as amendments to Articles of Incorporation. Conversely, a Board Resolution is executed by the board of directors to manage day-to-day operations or make executive decisions. This document includes provisions for authorizing the amending of Articles, as well as delegating authority for necessary filings. Key features include clear steps for codifying the resolutions and a certification by the Secretary to affirm the authenticity of the records. Filling out the form requires attention to detail, particularly in the sections related to date and authority signatures. This resolution is particularly useful for attorneys, business partners, and corporate owners dealing with governance issues. Associates, paralegals, and legal assistants can utilize this form to facilitate compliance with corporate formalities and assist in maintaining accurate corporate records.
