He was chairman of the board, no? surely he was in the meeting? More likely it's some kind of schism and he was on Sam's side.

Just guessing here, but I think the board can form a quorum without the chair, and vote, and as long as they have a majority, i think they can proceed with a press release based on their vote.

Since he was removed as Chairman at the same time as Altman was as CEO, presumably he was excluded from that part of the meeting (which may have been the whole meeting) for the same reason as Altman would have been.

It varies by jurisdiction and board rules, but this is a common setup and a very reasonable guess.
