If the articles or bylaws provide for voting by classes of members, then unless the articles or bylaws provide otherwise:

  2. If a class is to be divided into two or more classes as a result of an amendment to the articles, the amendment must be approved by the members of each class that would be created by the amendment; and
  3. If a class vote is required to approve an amendment to the articles, the amendment must be approved by the members of the class by two-thirds of the votes cast by the class or a majority of the voting power of the class, whichever is less.

COMMENT

This section is based generally on the Model Act and its Business Code counterpart. It differs from the Model Act because this Code does not follow the Model Act approach of categorizing nonprofit corporations. It differs from the Business Code because of the different rights and interests of members and shareholders.
