“New By-Law Section 15: A Trustee may be removed, with or without cause. A Trustee may submit a request to remove a Trustee to the Chairman or a Vice Chairman of the Board. The Chairman or Vice Chairman will forward such recommendation to the Nominations and Governance Committee for consideration, and, following its review, the Nominations and Governance Committee shall forward its recommendation to the Executive Committee for consideration. In the event the Executive Committee recommends removal of a Trustee, the recommendation shall go to the Board for vote. A Trustee may be formally removed by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Trustees then in office, present, and voting at a meeting of the Trustees at which a quorum is present. If the vote for the removal of a Trustee is to take place at a special meeting called pursuant to Article V, Section 6 of these Bylaws, written notice of the proposed removal must be prepared and delivered to all Trustees pursuant to Article V, Section 7, no fewer than twenty (20) days prior to the special meeting. Such notice must both include the purpose of the meeting (i.e., Removal of Trustee) and list the Trustee or Trustees sought to be removed.”
