Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of\n\nincorporation, any action permitted to be taken at the organization\n\nmeeting of the incorporators or directors, as the case may be, may\n\nbe taken without a meeting if each incorporator or director, where\n\nthere is more than one, or the sole incorporator or director where\n\nthere is only one, consents thereto in writing or by electronic\n\ntransmission. A consent may be documented, signed, and delivered in\n\nany manner permitted by Section 1014.3 of this title.
