(2) By special legal counsel:
(i) Selected in the manner prescribed in paragraph (1) of this subsection; or
(ii) If there are fewer than two (2) qualified directors, selected by the board of directors, in which selection directors who are not qualified directors may participate; or
(3) By the shareholders, but shares owned by or voted under the control of a director who at the time is not a qualified director may not be voted on the determination.
(c) Authorization of indemnification shall be made in the same manner as the determination that indemnification is permissible, except that if there are fewer than two (2) qualified directors or if the determination is made by special legal counsel, authorization of indemnification shall be made by those entitled to select special legal counsel under subsection (b)(2)(ii) of this section.
