      1. Incorporate. One or more persons acting as incorporators shall execute and file, in accordance with sections 403 and 404, articles of incorporations for a corporation.[1991, c. 780, Pt. U, §13 (amd).]
      2. Need not be residents. Incorporators need not be residents of this State.[1977, c. 525, §13 (new).]
      3. Incorporators. The incorporator or incorporators may be natural persons or domestic or foreign corporations, whether or not authorized to do business or carry on activities in this State, or any combination of natural persons or domestic or foreign corporations.
