Existing law authorizes and regulates the formation and operation of a corporation, nonprofit public benefit corporation, nonprofit mutual benefit corporation, or nonprofit religious corporation, including, but not limited to, the adoption and contents of corporate bylaws. This bill would authorize a corporation, nonprofit public benefit corporation, nonprofit mutual benefit corporation, or nonprofit religious corporation to take actions in anticipation of or during an emergency, as defined, to conduct these corporations' ordinary business operations and affairs, as specified, and provide that any action taken in good faith in anticipation of or during an emergency under this authorization would bind these corporations and not be a basis to impose liability on a corporate director, officer, employee, or agent. This bill would also authorize a corporation, nonprofit public benefit corporation, nonprofit mutual benefit corporation, or nonprofit religious corporation to adopt bylaws to manage and conduct ordinary business affairs of the corporation effective only in an emergency, as specified.
