SB 1390 Illinois Senate · 96th Regular Session

NOT FOR PROFIT CORP-VARIOUS

Summary
Amends the General Not For Profit Corporation Act of 1986. Provides that notices may be delivered by electronic means to an e-mail address, facsimile number, or other appropriate contact (instead of the address) listed on the corporate records. Provides for informal action by voting membership by mail, e-mail, or other electronic means (instead of a written consent by all members entitled to vote) and notice of the informal action must be delivered at least 5 days before the effective date to members who did not vote (instead of a written consent signed by less than all voters is only effective if notice of the proposed action is delivered 5 days before the effective date of the action and if, after the effective date of the consent, prompt written notice of the action is delivered to those who did not give written consent). Provides that writings by directors or members include electronic communications unless prohibited (instead of expressly permitted) by the corporation's bylaws or incorporation articles. Provides that a voting member or the member's agent may examine or copy the corporation's records for a proper purpose and that a disputed records request is decided in circuit court (instead of a member may inspect all books and records for a proper purpose at a reasonable time). Provides that a bylaws amendment eliminating a director position may shorten (instead of may not shorten) the terms of incumbent directors, if approved by those authorized to select the directors. Deletes provision that prohibits the removal, except for cause, of directors of different classes with non-uniform terms. Provides that a transaction between a corporation and a member, director, officer, or any entity in which such an individual has an interest, is not void or voidable solely for that reason if the material facts are disclosed and the board or members in good faith authorize the transaction by a majority vote or the transaction is fair at the time it is authorized (instead of if a transaction is fair to the corporation, the direct or indirect interest of a director is not grounds for invalidating the transaction). Provides that no director shall be liable unless the director earns more than $25,000 (instead of $5,000) per year as a director. Makes other changes.
