Where it fits
For a board of two directors acting in writing. For a larger board or a matter that needs a meeting, use board minutes, and for a decision of the shareholders use a shareholder resolution.
Before you rely on it
Original Centilio wording, not legal advice. Check that the articles, bylaws or constitution allow written resolutions and that the two signers are all the directors entitled to vote. Some matters need a board meeting, a shareholder vote or a filing with the registrar, so confirm locally before you approve it.
