Emergency Bylaws Clause Samples
The Emergency Bylaws clause establishes special rules and procedures that a corporation may follow during extraordinary situations, such as natural disasters or other emergencies, when normal governance processes cannot be observed. These bylaws typically allow the board of directors to act with fewer members present, modify notice requirements, or delegate authority to specific individuals to ensure the company can continue to operate. The core function of this clause is to ensure organizational continuity and decision-making capability during crises when standard procedures are impractical or impossible.

Emergency Bylaws. In the event of an emergency, to the extent not limited or prohibited by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the following provisions regarding the management of the Corporation shall take effect immediately. An “emergency,” for the purposes of this Section 8.06, exists if a quorum of the Board of Directors cannot readily participate in a meeting because of the occurrence of a catastrophic event. In the event of an emergency, a meeting of the Board of Directors may be called following the attempt of not less than two-hour notice to each director. Said notice may be given by electronic transmission, including facsimile transmission, transmission to an electronic mail address provided by the director, or by telephone. The Board of Directors shall approve and maintain a current list of officers or other persons to serve as directors to the extent necessary to provide a quorum at any meeting held and to take over the duties of any other officer who is rendered incapable of discharging their duties while these emergency bylaws are in effect. When an emergency, as defined in this Section, arises, the chair of the Board, the President and the Secretary, without the approval of the Board of Directors, shall have the authority to temporarily change the Corporation’s principal office or designate several alternative principal offices, until such time as the Board of Directors can meet or until the termination of the emergency. These emergency provisions take effect only in the event of an emergency as defined hereinabove and will no longer be effective after the emergency ends. Any and all provisions of these Bylaws that are consistent with these emergency provisions remain in effect during an emergency. Any or all actions of the Corporation taken in good faith in accordance with these provisions are binding upon this Corporation and may not be used to impose liability on a managerial official, employee, or agent of the Corporation.

Such notice shall be given at such time in advance of the meeting as, in the judgment of the person calling the meeting, circumstances permit.
