Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are shareholders in a corporation may need this resolution to formally agree on the dissolution of the corporation during a scheduled meeting. This ensures that all shareholders are in consensus and that the decision is documented appropriately.
  • Situations requiring the dissolution of a corporation without a formal meeting can utilize the Unanimous Written Consent included in this packet. This allows shareholders to agree on the dissolution in writing, streamlining the process when a meeting is impractical.
  • For those looking to ensure compliance with state laws regarding corporate dissolution, this resolution provides a structured approach to documenting the decision. This is essential for maintaining proper corporate records and protecting shareholder interests.
  • In cases where a corporation has fulfilled its purpose or is no longer viable, shareholders can use this resolution to officially dissolve the entity. This formalizes the end of the corporation's legal existence and addresses any remaining obligations.
  • Shareholders may require this resolution to clarify the process of dissolution and to ensure that all legal formalities are observed. This is particularly important for avoiding potential disputes or legal challenges in the future.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate if the shareholders have not reached a consensus on the decision to dissolve the corporation. Without unanimous agreement, the resolution cannot be executed.
  • – If the corporation is facing legal disputes or liabilities, using this resolution may not be suitable until those issues are resolved. Legal counsel should be sought in such cases to address outstanding obligations.
  • – In situations where the corporation is still actively conducting business and has not fulfilled its purpose, dissolution may not be warranted. Shareholders should evaluate the corporation's viability before proceeding.
  • – This resolution should not be used if the corporation is subject to any regulatory restrictions that prevent dissolution. It is important to ensure that all legal requirements are met prior to initiating the process.
  • – If shareholders are not in compliance with their fiduciary duties or if there are unresolved conflicts among them, using this form may exacerbate tensions. Legal advice is recommended to navigate such complexities.
