Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of stockholders by P.L. 1948, c. 67 (C. 17:9A-1 et seq.), or the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of a bank, may be taken without a meeting if all stockholders consent thereto in writing. Whenever action is taken pursuant to this section, the written consents of the stockholders consenting thereto shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of stockholders. Any action taken pursuant to this section shall have the same effect for all purposes as if the action had been taken at a meeting of the stockholders. If any other provision of P.L. 1948, c. 67 (C. 17:9A-1 et seq.) requires the filing of a certificate upon the taking of an action by the stockholders, and the action is taken in the manner authorized by this section, the certificate shall state that the action was taken without a meeting pursuant to the written consents of all of the stockholders.
