2014 Virginia Code
Title 13.1 - Corporations
§ 13.1-679. Resignation of directors


VA Code § 13.1-679 (2014) What's This?

A. A director may resign at any time by delivering a written resignation to the board of directors or its chairman, or to the secretary of the corporation.

B. A resignation is effective when the resignation is delivered unless the resignation specifies a later effective date or an effective date determined upon the occurrence of one or more events. If a resignation is made effective at a later date, the board of directors may fill the pending vacancy before the effective date if the board of directors provides that the successor does not take office until the effective date. A resignation that is conditioned upon failing to receive a specified vote for election as a director may provide that it is irrevocable.

C. Any person who has resigned as a director of a corporation, or whose name is incorrectly on file with the Commission as a director of a corporation, may file a statement to that effect with the Commission.

D. Upon the resignation of a director, the corporation may file an amended annual report with the Commission indicating the resignation of the director and the successor in office, if any.
