How do you vote out a stockholder and what should the meeting minutes say?
If you have a shareholder agreement that allow a shareholder to be voted out, you should follow what the agreement says. Call a meeting, have a quorum present, vote. The minutes should reflect that all of that took place, that the meeting was called, a quorum was present, a motion was made, it was seconded, there was discussion (or not), there was a vote, and the motion carried (or not).
Is seconded a word?
Yes. Most commonly this word arises in describing a formal meeting where a motion has been made. For a motion to be formally considered, another individual must express support for its consideration. This is done by saying, "I second that motion." Once that stage has occurred, the motion is described as seconded. For example, "Ms. Wilson has seconded the motion to adjourn which must be voted on immediately in accordance with Robert's Rules of Order." The word less commonly is encountered when discussing the ranking of things. If an item is put in second place, it may be said to have been "seconded." In that case it can also be an adjective, "The seconded item was taken off of the winner's pedestal." There are other variations of usage, but most are related to these two examples.
