change and=20
      filed with OTS within 30 days after adoption, provided the =
association=20
      follows the requirements of its charter in adopting such =
amendments:</P>

unless the=20
      bylaws so require.</P>
      <P>(b) <I>Number and term. </I>The bylaws shall set forth a =
specific=20
      number of directors, not a range. The number of directors shall be =
not=20
      fewer than five nor more than fifteen, unless a higher or lower =
number has=20
      been authorized by the Director of the Office or his or her =
delegate.=20
      Directors shall be elected for a term of one to three years and =
until=20
      their successors are elected and qualified. If a staggered board =
is=20
      chosen, the directors shall be divided into two or three classes =
as nearly=20
      equal in number as possible and one class shall be elected by =
ballot=20
      annually. In the case of a converting or newly chartered =
association where=20
      all directors shall be elected at the first election of directors, =
if a=20
      staggered board is chosen, the terms shall be staggered in length =
from one=20
      to three years.</P>
      <P>(c) <I>Regular meetings. </I>A regular meeting of the board of=20
      directors shall be held immediately after, and at the same place =
as, the=20
      annual meeting of shareholders. The board of directors shall =
determine the=20
      place, frequency, time and procedure for notice of regular =
meetings.</P>
      <P>(d) <I>Quorum. </I>A majority of the number of directors shall=20
      constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting =
of the=20
      board of directors. The act of the majority of the directors =
present at a=20
      meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the board =
of=20
      directors, unless a greater number is prescribed by regulation of =
the=20
      Office.</P>
      <P>(e) <I>Vacancies. </I>Any vacancy occurring in the board of =
directors=20
      may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the =
remaining=20
      directors although less than a quorum of the board of directors. A =

      director elected to fill a vacancy shall be elected to serve only =
until=20
      the next election of directors by the shareholders. Any =
directorship to be=20
      filled by reason of an increase in the number of directors may be =
filled=20
      by election by the board of directors for a term of office =
continuing only=20
      until the next election of directors by the shareholders.</P>
      <P>(f) <I>Removal or resignation of directors. </I>(1) At a =
meeting of=20
      shareholders called expressly for that purpose, any director may =
be=20
      removed only for cause, as defined in =A7563.39 of this chapter, =
by a vote=20
      of the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote =
at an=20
      election of directors. Associations may provide for procedures =
regarding=20
      resignations in the bylaws.</P>
      <P>(2) If less than the entire board is to be removed, no one of =
the=20
      directors may be removed if the votes cast against the removal =
would be=20
      sufficient to elect a director if then cumulatively voted at an =
election=20
      of the class of directors of which such director is a part.</P>
      <P>(3) Whenever the holders of the shares of any class are =
entitled to=20
      elect one or more directors by the provisions of the charter or=20
      supplemental sections thereto, the provisions of this section =
shall apply,=20
      in respect to the removal of a director or directors so elected, =
to the=20
      vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of that class and =
not to the=20
      vote of the outstanding shares as a whole.</P>
      <P>(g) <I>Executive and other committees. </I>The board of =
directors, by=20
      resolution adopted by a majority of the full board, may designate =
from=20
      among its members an executive committee and one or more other =
committees=20
      each of which, to the extent provided in the resolution or bylaws =
of the=20
      association, shall have and may exercise all of the authority of =
the board=20
      of directors, except no committee shall have the authority of the =
board of=20
      directors with reference to: the declaration of dividends; the =
amendment=20
      of the charter or bylaws of the association; recommending to the=20
      stockholders a plan of merger, consolidation, or conversion; the =
sale,=20
      lease, or other disposition of all, or substantially all, of the =
property=20
      and assets of the association otherwise than in the usual and =
regular=20
      course of its business; a voluntary dissolution of the =
association; a=20
      revocation of any of the foregoing; or the approval of a =
transaction in=20
      which any member of the executive committee, directly or =
indirectly, has=20
      any material beneficial interest. The designation of any committee =
and the=20
      delegation of authority thereto shall not operate to relieve the =
board of=20
      directors, or any director, of any responsibility imposed by law =
or=20
      regulation.</P>
      <P>(h) <I>Notice of special meetings. </I>Written notice of at =
least 24=20
      hours regarding any special meeting of the board of directors or =
of any=20
      committee designated thereby shall be given to each director in =
accordance=20
      with the bylaws, although such notice may be waived by the =
director. The=20
      attendance of a director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of =
notice=20
      of such meeting, except where a director attends a meeting for the =
express=20
      purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because =
the=20
      meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business =
to be=20
      transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting need be specified =
in the=20
      notice or waiver of notice of such meeting. The bylaws may provide =
for=20
      telephonic participation at a meeting.</P>
      <P>(i) <I>Action without a meeting. </I>Any action required or =
permitted=20
      to be taken by the board of directors at a meeting may be taken =
without a=20
      meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the actions so =
taken, shall=20
      be signed by all of the directors.</P>
      <P>(j) <I>Presumption of assent. </I>A director of the association =
who is=20
      present at a meeting of the board of directors at which action on =
any=20
      association matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to =
the=20
      action taken unless his or her dissent or abstention shall be =
entered in=20
      the minutes of the meeting or unless a written dissent to such =
action=20
      shall be filed with the person acting as the secretary of the =
meeting=20
      before the adjournment thereof or shall be forwarded by registered =
mail to=20
      the secretary of the association within five days after the date =
on which=20
      a copy of the minutes of the meeting is received. Such right to =
dissent=20

action.</P>
