About this document
A written consent lets directors or shareholders approve a decision by signing a document instead of meeting. It states who is consenting, what is resolved and who may carry it out.
This blank form has space for three signers, and an attached page can add more. Whether a company can act this way, and how many must sign, depends on its governing documents and state law.
