directors or the Attorney General to enjoin the doing or continuation of
unauthorized business by the corporation or its officers, or both, in cases
where third parties have not acquired rights thereby, or to dissolve the
corporation, or in a proceeding by the corporation, a director or a member
entitled to vote for the election of directors suing in a representative suit
against the officers or directors of the corporation for violation of their
authority.
2. No limitation upon the business,
purposes or powers of the corporation or upon the powers of the members,
officers or directors, or the manner of exercise of such powers, contained in
or implied by the articles or bylaws may be asserted as between the corporation,
the directors or members and any third person.
3. Any contract or conveyance, otherwise
lawful, made in the name of a corporation, which is authorized or ratified by
the directors, or is done within the scope of the authority, actual or apparent,
given by the directors, binds the corporation, and the corporation acquires
rights thereunder, whether the contract is signed or is wholly or in part
executory.
