Demand Promissory Note Board Approval is a formal request for authorization by a company board of directors to issue a promissory note. A promissory note is a written promise to pay a sum of money to a named party on a certain date or over a period of time. The board of directors must review and approve the terms of the promissory note, including the amount, the interest rate, the repayment schedule, and any other conditions that may be included in the note. The board must also approve the company’s ability to make the payments as agreed in the promissory note. There are two types of Demand Promissory Note Board Approval, secured and unsecured. Secured Demand Promissory Note Board Approval requires collateral to back up the loan, while unsecured Demand Promissory Note Board Approval does not require collateral.
