The adoption or amendment of a bylaw that adds, changes, or deletes a greater quorum or voting requirement for shareholders must meet the same quorum requirement and be adopted by the same vote and voting groups required to take action under the quorum and voting requirement then in effect or proposed to be adopted, whichever is greater.
(b) A bylaw that fixes a greater quorum or voting requirement for shareholders under subsection (a) of this section may not be adopted, amended, or repealed by the board of directors. (Added 1993, No. 85, § 2, eff. Jan. 1, 1994.)
