607.0146 Defective corporate actions.
(1) A defective corporate action is not void or voidable if:
(a) The defective corporate action was ratified in accordance with the requirements of s. 607.0147, including the filing, if required, of articles of validation pursuant to s. 607.0151; or
(b) The defective corporate action was validated in accordance with s. 607.0152.
(2) Ratification under s. 607.0147 or validation under s. 607.0152 shall not be deemed to be the exclusive means of ratifying or validating any defective corporate action, and the absence or failure of ratification in accordance with ss. 607.0145-607.0152 will not, in and of itself, affect the validity or effectiveness of any corporate action properly ratified under common law or otherwise, and it does not create a presumption that any such corporate action is or was a defective corporate action or is or was void or voidable.
(3) In the case of an overissue, putative shares will be valid shares effective as of the date originally issued or purportedly issued upon:
(a) The effectiveness under ss. 607.0145-607.0152 and ss. 607.1001-607.1009 of an amendment to the articles of incorporation authorizing, designating, or creating such shares; or
(b) The effectiveness of any other corporate action taken under ss. 607.0145-607.0152 ratifying the authorization, designation, or creation of such shares.
