Section 405. Organization meeting  


Latest version.
  • (a)  After  the corporate existence has begun, an organization meeting
      of the initial directors, or, if directors are  not  designated  in  the
      certificate  of  incorporation,  of  the  incorporator or incorporators,
      shall be held within or without this state, for the purpose of  adopting
      by-laws,   electing   directors  to  hold  office  as  provided  in  the
      certificate of incorporation or the by-laws, and the transaction of such
      other business as may come before the meeting. The meeting may  be  held
      at  the  call of any director or, if directors are not designated in the
      certificate of incorporation, any incorporator who shall give  at  least
      five   days'   notice   thereof  by  mail  to  each  other  director  or
      incorporator, which notice shall set forth the time  and  place  of  the
      meeting.    Notice need not be given to any director or incorporator who
      submits a signed waiver of notice before or after the  meeting,  or  who
      attends  the  meeting  without  protesting,  prior  thereto  or  at  its
      commencement, the lack of notice to him. If  there  are  more  than  two
      directors or incorporators, a majority shall constitute a quorum and the
      act  of  the majority of those present at a meeting at which a quorum is
      present shall be the act of the  directors  or  incorporators.  For  the
      purposes  of  this section an incorporator or director may act in person
      or by proxy signed by him or his attorney in fact.
        (b) Any action permitted to be taken at an organization meeting may be
      taken without a meeting if  each  director  or,  if  directors  are  not
      designated in the certificate of incorporation, each incorporator or his
      attorney-in-fact signs an instrument setting forth the action so taken.
        (c)  If  a  designated  director or an incorporator dies or is for any
      reason unable to act, the other or  others  may  act.  If  there  is  no
      designated  director or incorporator able to act, any person for whom an
      incorporator is acting as agent may act in his stead, or if  such  other
      person  also  dies  or  is  for  any  reason  unable  to  act, his legal
      representative may act.
