All the forms you need to keep your corporation valid in the eyes of the IRS and courts.

If you've taken the time to turn your business into a corporation, chances are you'd like to see it stay that way. Your business card may say "incorporated," but if the courts and the IRS think differently, it's closing time.

Because meeting minutes are the primary paper trail of a corporation's legal life, it's important to know when and how to prepare these minutes. The Corporate Records Handbook provides all the forms (plus instructions) you need, including:

Call of Meeting

Meeting Participant List

Notice of Meeting

Certification of Mailing

Acknowledgment of Receipt of Notice of Meeting

Shareholder Proxy

Meeting Summary Sheet

Minutes of Annual Shareholders' Meeting

Minutes of Special Shareholders' Meeting

Minutes of Annual Directors' Meeting

Minutes of Special Directors' Meeting

Waiver of Notice of Meeting

Approval of Corporate Minutes By Directors of Shareholders

Cover Letter for Approval of Minutes of Paper Meeting

Written Consent to Action Without Meeting

The Corporate Records Handbook also gives you more than 75 additional resolutions -- both as tear-outs and on CD-ROM -- to insert into your minutes. So take a few minutes and read this book -- your corporation deserves it! (20090101)
