§ 28713. Quorum and Voting Requirements for Voting Groups.
(a) Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on
a matter at a meeting only if a quorum of those shares exists with respect to
that matter. Unless the articles of incorporation or this Act provide
otherwise, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter by the

for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or must be
set for that adjourned meeting.
(c) If a quorum exists, action on a matter (other than the election of
directors) by a voting group is approved if the votes cast within the voting
group favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless
the articles of incorporation or this Act require a greater number of
affirmative votes.
