Corporate management teams continue to be accountable to certain governing bodies, including a board of directors, in addition to shareholders. The board is made up of a team of outside executives who are supposed to have unbiased opinions on the direction of the business, while the shareholders, of course, support the company in the hope of sharing in future profits. Corporate resolutions are written when the board of directors and investors agree with the main decisions of the company’s management. These documents can be a response to moving to a new location, filing for bankruptcy, or obtaining funding for a big project, for example.
When a company receives support from a board of directors to sell certain properties or assets, it can create a corporate resolution.
A corporate resolution around a change in a lease may include a statement as to why a space is no longer needed. If a contract, such as a lease, is transferred to another party, the details of that contract are described in the relevant corporate resolutions. Usually, some witness, such as a corporate secretary who is not involved in the event decision or approval process, is identified on the legal form.
When a company receives support from a board of directors to sell certain properties or assets, it can create a corporate resolution. The document acknowledges that the company has the necessary approval to proceed with the transaction, and any subsequent purchaser of the properties may be named on the form. Corporate resolutions related to the sale of assets must also have some witness involved in the presentation of the documents. In addition to the witness, the top executives of the organization also often sign corporate resolutions.
Throughout a bankruptcy process, a business must work to obtain certain provisions from creditors if that business ever returns to solvency. Corporate resolutions can be used to outline agreements that may have been made with creditors before or after filing for bankruptcy. In addition, plans to exit bankruptcy protection can be included in this type of corporate resolution.
If a business needs to obtain financing for some event, such as a project, expansion, or equipment purchase, it may need to obtain debt financing. Corporate resolutions can be prepared that establish the approved parameters for any debt financing. For example, if there are restrictions on the interest rate applied to the loan, or if the financing may be extended for another term in the future, these details are included in a corporate resolution document.
