48-58-205. Quorum and voting. 

 (a)  Except as otherwise provided in chapters 51-68 of this title, the charter or bylaws, a quorum of a board of directors consists of a majority of the directors in office immediately before a meeting begins. In no event may the charter or bylaws authorize a quorum of fewer than the greater of one third (1/3) of the number of directors in office or two (2) directors. When a quorum is once present to organize a meeting, a meeting may be later adjourned despite the absence of a quorum caused by the subsequent withdrawal of any of those present.

 (b)  If a quorum is present when a vote is taken, the affirmative vote of a majority of directors present is the act of the board unless chapters 51-68 of this title, the charter or bylaws require the vote of a greater number of directors.

 (c)  A director who is present at a meeting of the board of directors when corporate action is taken is deemed to have assented to the action taken unless:

      (1)  The director objects at the beginning of the meeting (or promptly upon the director's arrival) to holding it or transacting business at the meeting;

      (2)  The director's dissent or abstention from the action taken is entered in the minutes of the meeting; or

      (3)  The director delivers written notice of the director's dissent or abstention to the presiding officer of the meeting before its adjournment or to the corporation immediately after adjournment of the meeting. The right of dissent or abstention is not available to a director who votes in favor of the action taken.
