Board may be subjected to review and scrutiny only where the corporation's or
stockholders' interest are prejudiced.

board of directors usually refer to the ordinary business transactions of the

conferred by the stockholders. No board can usurp the power of control of the
corporation vested by law in the shareholders. (19 Am. Jur. 2d p. 577). Thus, while

their validity upon the concurrence of the required statutory votes of the stockholders
by prior action or subsequent ratification, some of which are as follows:
