The Meeting will be held at the offices of the Company located at 1 Hayarden Street, Airport City, Lod 7019900, Israel. The telephone number at that address is +972-3-976-4000.

The health and well-being of our employees and shareholders are paramount, and we are closely monitoring developments related to COVID-19. Although we intend to hold our Meeting in person, we are sensitive to the public health and travel concerns our shareholders may have and the protocols that governments may impose. We reserve the right to convert to a virtual only meeting format should meeting in person become unsafe as a result of COVID-19. If we convert to a virtual only online meeting, we will announce the decision to do so in advance and provide instructions for shareholder participation in the virtual meeting in a Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As always, we encourage you to vote your shares prior to the Meeting.

These proxy solicitation materials are first being distributed on or about August 13, 2020, and will be mailed to all shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting.

INFORMATION CONCERNING SOLICITATION AND VOTING

Record Date and Shares Outstanding

You are entitled to receive notice of the Meeting and to vote at the Meeting if you were a shareholder of record of Ordinary Shares, nominal value NIS 0.01, of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”) at the close of business on August 12, 2020 (the “Record Date”). You are also entitled to receive notice of the Meeting and to vote at the Meeting if you held Ordinary Shares through a bank, broker or other nominee that was a shareholder of record of the Company at the close of business on the Record Date or that appeared in the participant listing of a securities depository on that date.

On the Record Date, 62,156,738 Ordinary Shares were issued, of which 32,685,124 Ordinary Shares were outstanding and 29,471,614 Ordinary Shares were held in treasury.

Revocability of Proxies

A form of proxy card for use at the Meeting is attached. Please follow the instructions on the proxy card. If you return a duly executed proxy card to us, you may change your mind and cancel your proxy card by filing a written notice of revocation with the Company, by completing and returning a duly executed proxy card bearing a later date, or by voting in person at the Meeting. Attendance at the Meeting will not in and of itself constitute revocation of a proxy. Ordinary Shares represented by a valid proxy card in the attached form will be voted in favor of all of the proposed resolutions to be presented to the Meeting, unless you clearly vote against a specific resolution.

Quorum, Voting and Solicitation

At least two shareholders who attend the Meeting in person or by proxy will constitute a quorum at the Meeting, provided that they hold shares conferring in the aggregate more than 50% of the voting power of the Company. If a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time scheduled for the Meeting, the Meeting will be adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place. The Chairman of the Meeting may, however, adjourn the Meeting to a different day, time or place, with the consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting on the question of adjournment. At an adjourned Meeting, any two shareholders who attend the Meeting in person or by proxy will constitute a quorum. The vote necessary to approve the resolutions relating to the matters upon which you will be asked to vote is specified below immediately following each proposed resolution. Each outstanding Ordinary Share is entitled to one vote upon each of the matters to be presented at the Meeting.

-2-

The Board of Directors of the Company is soliciting the attached proxy cards for the Meeting, primarily by mail and email. The original solicitation of proxies by mail and email may be further supplemented by solicitation by telephone and other means by certain officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company, but they will not receive additional compensation for these services. The Company will bear the cost of the solicitation of the proxy cards, including postage, printing and handling, and will reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding material to beneficial owners of shares.

Under Israeli law, if a quorum is present in person or by proxy, broker non-votes and abstentions will be disregarded and will have no effect on whether the requisite vote is obtained. “Broker non-votes” are shares held by brokers or other nominees that are present in person or by proxy, but which are not voted on a particular matter because instructions have not been received from the beneficial owner. Brokers and other nominees have discretionary authority under the applicable rules to vote on “routine” matters. This means that if a brokerage firm holds your shares on your behalf, those shares will not be voted on the election of directors and adoption of the new Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association (Proposals One through Three), which are not considered to be routine matters, unless you provide voting instructions by way of your proxy card. Thus, it is critical for a shareholder that holds Ordinary Shares through a bank or broker to instruct its bank or broker how to vote those shares, if the shareholder wants those shares to count.

COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

For information concerning the compensation earned during 2019 by our five most highly-compensated office holders (as defined in the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”)), including base salary, share-based compensation, directors’ fees (where applicable) and all other compensation, please see “Item 6.B. Directors, Senior Management and Employees–Compensation” of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 25, 2020, a copy of which is available on our website at www.audiocodes.com.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s Board of Directors currently has seven directors, including two “outside directors” within the meaning of the Companies Law. The Company’s Articles of Association provide for a classified Board of Directors, with the Company’s directors (other than its outside directors) being divided into Class I, Class II and Class III directors. Following the Meeting, assuming the reelection of Dr. Eyal Kishon as an outside director under Proposal One and the reelection of Mr. Joseph Tenne as a Class II Director under Proposal Two, the Company’s Board of Directors will consist of seven directors, including two outside directors within the meaning of the Companies Law.

Each director had during 2018 and 2019 a record of attending over 75% of all Board of Directors’ meetings and over 75% of the meetings of each committee of the Board of Directors on which he or she serves.

Dr. Eyal Kishon’s term expires at the Meeting and he has been nominated for reelection at the Meeting (see Proposal One), and Mr. Doron Nevo’s term expires in 2021. These two outside directors have each been determined by our Board to meet the independence requirements of the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

Stanley Stern and Shabtai Adlersberg, will hold office until the 2021 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. The Company’s Class I directors, Ms. Zehava Simon and Mr. Lior Aldema, will hold office until the 2022 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

The Independence of Our Board of Directors

A majority of the Company’s directors must meet the independence standards specified in the Nasdaq Global Select Market’s Corporate Governance Requirements. Following the Meeting, assuming the reelection of all nominees, our Board will consist of seven members, five of whom will be independent under the Nasdaq Corporate Governance Requirements. Specifically, our Board has determined that each of Mr. Stanley Stern, Mr. Joseph Tenne, Ms. Zehava Simon, Mr. Doron Nevo and Dr. Eyal Kishon meets the independence standards of the Nasdaq Corporate Governance Requirements. In reaching this conclusion, the Board determined that none of these directors has a relationship that would preclude a finding of independence and that the other relationships that these directors have with us do not impair their independence. None of our directors, other than Mr. Shabtai Adlersberg and Mr. Lior Aldema, is a member of our executive team. 

PROPOSAL ONE

REELECTION OF Dr. EYAL Kishon AS AN OUTSIDE DIRECTOR
FOR AN ADDITIONAL TERM OF THREE YEARS

Background

The Companies Law requires that the Company have at least two outside directors, who must meet certain statutory requirements of independence prescribed by the Companies Law. An outside director serves for a term of three years, which may be extended for up to two additional three-year terms. Pursuant to a regulation adopted under the Companies Law, a company listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market may elect as an outside director, for additional terms of up to three years each, a person who has completed three terms of service as an outside director if (1) the company’s audit committee and board of directors have resolved that, in light of the person’s expertise and special contribution to the function of the board of directors and its committees, his or her service as an outside director is in the best interests of the company and (2) prior to the approval of the reelection of the outside director, the company’s shareholders have been informed of the term previously served by such nominee and of the reasons why the board of directors and audit committee recommend the extension of such nominee’s term. An outside director can be removed from office only under very limited circumstances. All of the outside directors must serve on the Company’s Audit Committee, and at least one outside director must serve on each committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Chair of the Audit Committee must also be an outside director.

As noted above, the Company’s outside directors are Mr. Nevo and Dr. Kishon. Mr. Nevo’s term expires in 2021. The term of Dr. Kishon is scheduled to expire at the Meeting, and he has been nominated for reelection at this Meeting.

Biographical information concerning Dr. Kishon, the nominee for reelection as an outside director, is set forth below.

Dr. Eyal Kishon has served as one of our directors since 1997. Since 1996, Dr. Kishon has been Managing Partner of Genesis Partners, an Israel-based venture capital fund. From 1993 to 1996, Dr. Kishon served as Associate Director of Dovrat-Shrem/Yozma-Polaris Fund Limited Partnership. Prior to that, Dr. Kishon served as Chief Technology Officer at Yozma Venture Capital from 1992 to 1993. From 1991 to 1992, Dr. Kishon was a Research Fellow in the Multimedia Department of IBM Science & Technology. From 1989 to 1991, Dr. Kishon worked in the Robotics Research Department of AT&T Bell Laboratories. Dr. Kishon holds a B.A. in Computer Science from the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology and an M.Sc. and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from New York University.

The Company’s Nominating Committee has recommended that Dr. Eyal Kishon be reelected as an outside director at the Meeting for an additional three year term, and found that Dr. Kishon has all necessary qualifications required to serve as an outside director under the Companies Law and as an independent director under the Corporate Governance Requirements of the Nasdaq Global Select Market. The Company’s Audit Committee and Board of Directors have approved the Nominating Committee’s recommendation and determined that, in light of the expertise and special contribution of Dr. Kishon to the Company’s Board of Directors and board committees, the reelection of Dr. Kishon as an outside director for an additional three years would be in the Company’s best interests.

-5-

Proposal

The shareholders are being asked to reelect Dr. Kishon as an outside director for an additional term of three years, expiring at the 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. Management knows of no current circumstances that would render Dr. Kishon unable to accept nomination or reelection.

It is proposed that the following resolution be adopted at the Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the shareholders of the Company hereby reelect Dr. Eyal Kishon to the Board of Directors of the Company to serve as outside director for an additional term of three years.”

Vote Required

The reelection of Dr. Kishon as an outside director requires the vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting on his reelection. In addition, either the affirmative vote of the Ordinary Shares must include at least a majority of the Ordinary Shares voted by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have a personal interest in the election of the outside director (excluding a personal interest that is not related to a relationship with the controlling shareholders), or the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders and non-interested shareholders voted against this proposal must not represent more than two percent of the outstanding Ordinary Shares.

The term “controlling shareholder” means a shareholder having the ability to direct the activities of a company, other than by virtue of being an office holder. A shareholder is presumed to be a controlling shareholder if the shareholder holds 50% or more of the voting rights in a company or has the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the company or its chief executive officer.

The Companies Law requires that each shareholder voting on the proposal indicate whether or not the shareholder has a personal interest in the proposal. Otherwise, the shareholder’s vote on this proposal will not be counted. Under the Companies Law, a “personal interest” of a shareholder (i) includes a personal interest of the shareholder and certain members of the shareholder’s family, certain family members of the shareholder’s spouse, or a spouse of any of the foregoing, or a personal interest of a company with respect to which the shareholder (or such family member) serves as a director or chief executive officer, owns at least 5% of the shares or has the right to appoint a director or chief executive officer, and (ii) excludes an interest arising solely from the ownership of our Ordinary Shares. Under the Companies Law, in the case of a person voting by proxy for another person, “personal interest” includes a personal interest of either the proxy holder or the shareholder granting the proxy, whether or not the proxy holder has discretion how to vote. If you do not have a personal interest in this matter, you may assume that using the form of proxy enclosed herewith will not create a personal interest. To avoid confusion, in the form of proxy card, we refer to such a personal interest as a “personal benefit or other interest.”

The enclosed form of proxy includes a box you can mark to confirm that you are not a “controlling shareholder” and do not have a personal interest in this matter arising from connections with a controlling shareholder. If you do not mark this box, your vote will not be counted. If you are unable to make this confirmation, please contact the Company’s Chief Legal Officer for guidance at +972-3-976-4099 or, if you hold your shares in “street name” you may ask the representative managing your account to contact the Company’s Chief Legal Officer at the number above.

PROPOSAL THREE

APPROVAL OF AMENDED ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION AND MEMORANDUM OF ASSOCIATION

Background

Our current Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association were adopted prior to the enactment of the Companies Law and have only been amended on limited occasions since. In light of changes in the business and legal environment that have occurred since such time, the Company’s Board of Directors approved, and recommended that the Company’s shareholders approve, to replace the Company’s Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association with the Amended and Restated Articles of Association (the “Amended Articles”) and Amended and Restated Memorandum of Association (the “Amended Memorandum”), in the forms attached as Annex A and Annex B hereto, respectively. For the sake of clarity, as the Amended Articles and Amended Memorandum amend and restate the Company’s current Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association in their entirety, the attached forms are not marked to show changes against the Company’s current Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association. The Board of Directors believes that the Amended Articles and Amended Memorandum are more compatible with the provisions of the Companies Law and current market practice and will allow the Company to operate in a more efficient and productive manner.

In addition to general changes made to better conform with the provisions of the Companies Law, some of the more significant changes which are reflected in the Amended Articles include the following, which is not intended to be considered an exhaustive list of changes relative to our current Articles of Association:

- The current Articles of Association provide that no business shall be transacted at a general meeting of the shareholders unless a quorum of two or members holding more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company is present at the general meeting; the proposed Amended Articles will reduce this to thirty-three and a third percent (33.33%).

- The current Articles of Association provide that if the Chairman (or Co-Chairman) of the Board of Directors is not present at a general meeting of the shareholders, then the shareholders present at the general meeting may appoint an individual of their choice to preside over the general meeting; the proposed Amended Articles provide that (i) any of the following shall preside over the general meeting in the event that the Chairman of the Board of Directors is not present at a general meeting of the shareholders (and in the following order): director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, General Legal Counsel or any person designated by any of the foregoing and (ii) if none of the foregoing persons are present or all are unwilling to preside over the general meeting, only then may the shareholders appoint an individual of their choice to preside over the general meeting.

- The current Articles of Association provide that certain changes in the Company’s share capital, such as the increase, split or other modification of share capital shall require the approval of holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the voting power voting thereon; the proposed Amended Articles will reduce this to a simple majority.

- The current Articles of Association provide that the Company may provide for shares with preferred or deferred rights or rights of redemption, or other special rights and/or restrictions, whether in regard to dividends, voting repayment of share capital or otherwise subject to the approval of holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the voting power voting thereon; the proposed Amended Articles will reduce this to a simple majority.

-8-

- The current Articles of Association provide for a three-year moratorium on certain business combination transactions (such as mergers, share and asset sales and loans) with “interested shareholders” (generally defined for such purpose as persons who beneficially own fifteen percent (15%) or more of the Company’s outstanding voting shares) unless: (i) before the person became an interested shareholder, the Board of Directors approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in such person becoming an interested shareholder, or (ii) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder, the person owned at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Company’s outstanding voting shares. The current Articles of Association also provide that the amendment of the foregoing provisions shall require the approval of holders of at least a simple majority of the voting power voting thereon. The proposed Amended Articles will raise the threshold noted in sub-section (ii) above from seventy-five percent (75%) of the Company’s outstanding voting shares to eighty-five percent (85%) of the Company’s outstanding voting shares and allow for the post-facto approval of business combination transactions by the affirmative vote of holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the outstanding voting shares not owned by the interested shareholder. The proposed Amended Articles also provide that the amendment of the foregoing provisions shall require the approval of holders of at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the Company’s outstanding voting shares.

- The current Articles of Association provide that (i) a Company director whose term expires within less than twelve months of the upcoming general meeting of the shareholders can be removed from the Board of Directors by the affirmative vote of holders of at least a simple majority of the voting power voting thereon and (ii) a Company director whose term expires within more than twelve months of the upcoming general meeting of the shareholders can be removed from the Board of Directors by the affirmative vote of holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the voting power voting thereon; the proposed Amended Articles provide that holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power voting thereon can approve the removal of a Company director from the Board of Directors regardless of the anticipated expiration date of the director’s term of service.

- The current Articles of Association do not provide for any specified procedure according to which shareholders may propose items to include in the agenda of a general meeting of the shareholders. The Amended Articles provide for a more organized and transparent procedure which requires shareholders proposing to include items in the agenda of a general meeting of the shareholders to provide the Company with certain disclosures, including details regarding the shareholder’s shareholdings, the shareholder’s reasons for proposing the item, any interest the shareholder may have in the proposed item and details of certain derivative transactions involving the shareholder and the Company’s securities. The Amended Articles further provide that any amendments to the provisions relating to this matter shall require the affirmative vote of holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power voting thereon.

- The current Articles of Association provide that any amendments of the provisions contained therein providing for the role of the Board of Directors and method of appointment of its members shall require the approval of holders of at least a simple majority of the voting power voting thereon; the proposed Amended Articles provide that amendments to such provisions shall require the affirmative vote of holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power voting thereon.

The proposed Amended Memorandum is designed to conform with the similar provisions of the Amended Articles, including with respect to the provisions providing for the Company’s name, objectives, shareholder liability regime, authorized share capital and majority requirement for the amendment of the Amended Memorandum.

Proposed Resolution

It is proposed that the following resolution be adopted at the Meeting:

“RESOLVED, to approve the amendment of the Company’s Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association by replacing them in their entirety with the Amended and Restated Articles of Association and Amended and Restated Memorandum of Association in the forms attached as Annex A and Annex B to the Proxy Statement, respectively.”

29.2 allot to every shareholder, who holds a fraction of a share resulting from a consolidation or split, shares of the class that existed prior to the consolidation or split, in a quantity that, when consolidated with the fraction, will constitute a whole share, and such allotment will be considered valid immediately prior to the consolidation or split;

29.3 determine the manner for paying the amounts to be paid for shares allotted in accordance with Article 29.2 above, including on account of bonus shares; or

35. An annual general meeting of the Company’s shareholders (“Annual General Meeting”) shall be held at least once a calendar year, at such place and time as determined by the Board, but not later than fifteen (15) months after the last Annual General Meeting.

The Board shall have and execute all powers or responsibilities allocated to the Board by the Statutes and these Articles, including, without limitation, (i) the powers granted to the Board pursuant to the Companies Law and (ii) setting the Company’s policies and supervision over the execution of the powers and responsibilities of the CEO. The Board may execute any power of the Company that is not specifically allocated by the Statutes or by these Articles to another organ of the Company.

58. The Board shall consist of such number of directors (not more than ten (10), including External Directors, if any were elected) as may be fixed from time to time by the Board. A reduction of the maximum number of directors on the Board under this Article 58, shall not affect the term in office of serving directors determined prior to such reduction.

59. The directors, excluding the External Directors (if any were elected), shall be classified, with respect to the term for which they each severally hold office, into three classes, as nearly equal in number as practicable, hereby designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. The Board may assign members of the Board already in office to such classes at the time such classification becomes effective.

59.1 The term of office of the initial Class III directors shall expire at the first Annual General Meeting to be held in 2020 and when their successors are elected and qualified;

At each Annual General Meeting, commencing with the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2020, each of the successors elected to replace the directors of a Class whose term shall have expired at such Annual General Meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third Annual General Meeting next succeeding his or her election and until his or her respective successor shall have been elected and qualified. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, each director shall serve until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until such earlier time as such director’s office is vacated. A director whose term shall expire at an Annual General Meeting may be re-elected at such Annual General Meeting.

61. The Board may at any time and from time to time appoint any person as a director to fill a vacancy (whether such vacancy is due to a director no longer serving or due to the number of directors serving being less than the maximum number stated in Article 58 above). In the event of one or more such vacancies in the Board, the continuing directors may continue to act in every matter. The office of a director that was appointed by the Board to fill any vacancy shall only be for the remaining period of time during which the director whose service has ended was filled would have held office, or in case of a vacancy due to the number of directors serving being less than the maximum number stated in Article 58 above, the Board shall determine at the time of appointment the class pursuant to Article 59 above, to which the additional director shall be assigned.

Any Proposing Shareholder requesting to include on the agenda of a General Meeting a nomination of a Person to be proposed to the shareholders for election as director (such person, an “Alternate Nominee”), may so request provided that it complies with this Article 62 and Article 37 and applicable law. In addition to any information required to be included in accordance with applicable law, such a Proposal Request shall include information required pursuant to Article 37, and shall also set forth: (i) the name, address, telephone number, and email address of the Alternate Nominee and all citizenships and residencies of the Alternate Nominee; (ii) a description of all arrangements, relations or understandings between the Proposing Shareholder(s) or any of its affiliates and each Alternate Nominee; (iii) a declaration signed by the Alternate Nominee that he consents to be named in the Company’s notices and proxy materials relating to the General Meeting, if provided or published, and, if elected, to serve on the Board and to be named in the Company’s disclosures and filings; (iv) a declaration signed by each Alternate Nominee as required under the Companies Law and any other applicable law and stock exchange rules and regulations for the appointment of such an Alternate Nominee and an undertaking that all of the information that is required under law and stock exchange rules and regulations to be provided to the Company in connection with such an appointment has been provided; (v) a declaration made by the Alternate Nominee of whether (s)he meets the criteria for an independent director or External Director of the Company under the Companies Law or under any applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rules, and if not, then an explanation of why not; and (vi) any other information required at the time of submission of the Proposal Request by applicable law, regulations or stock exchange rules. In addition, the Proposing Shareholder shall promptly provide any other information reasonably requested by the Company. The Board may refuse to acknowledge the nomination of any person not made in compliance with the foregoing. The Company shall be entitled to publish any information provided by a Proposing Shareholder pursuant to this Article 62 and Article 37, and the Proposing Shareholder shall be responsible for the accuracy and completeness thereof.

63. The Nominees or Alternate Nominees shall be elected by a Simple Majority (provided, however, that in the case of contested election, the Nominees or Alternate Nominees shall be elected by a vote of plurality of the votes cast), and by a resolution adopted at the General Meeting at which they are subject to election.

A-17

For the purposes of these Articles, any General Meeting shall be considered a “contested election” if the total number of nominees for election to the Board at such General Meeting (including all persons (i) with respect to whom a shareholder has delivered, in due time pursuant to the Companies Law and these Articles, a notice of its intent to nominate at such General Meeting and (ii) with respect to whom such notice of intent to nominate has not been withdrawn by such shareholder prior to the date of the definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the SEC with respect to such General Meeting, as such date is set forth in the definitive proxy statement) made in compliance with these Articles and the Companies Law exceeds the total number of Nominees or Alternate Nominees to be elected at such General Meeting. At any General Meeting at which Nominees or Alternate Nominees are to be elected, each shareholder shall be entitled to cast a number of votes with respect to nominees for election to the Board up to the total number of Nominees or Alternate Nominees to be elected at such General Meeting.

64. The term of office of a director shall commence on the date of such director’s election by the General Meeting or by the Board or on a later date, should such date be determined in the resolution of appointment of the General Meeting or of the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles, a General Meeting may dismiss a director during his/her term, with or without cause, by a vote of a Special Majority.

65. An amendment to Articles 57-65 or this Article 39 shall require a Special Majority.

66. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles, the election, qualification, removal or dismissal of External Directors shall be only in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in the Companies Law.

A-18

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, written notice of any meeting of the Board and the agenda setting out the matters to be discussed at such meeting, shall be given to all directors at least seventy two (72) hours (or such shorter notice (i) if all the directors so agree or (ii) in the case of an urgent matter, if a majority of the directors so agree) before the meeting. A majority of the members of the Board may decide to hold a meeting without such notice, provided the Chairman participates in such meeting.  

Quorum

70. No business shall be transacted at any meeting of the Board unless a quorum of directors is present when a meeting is called to order. A quorum shall be deemed to exist when there are present at least half of the directors then in office.

If a quorum is not present at the meeting of the Board within half an hour after the time scheduled for the meeting, the meeting may be adjourned to another time as shall be decided by the Chairman, or in his absence, the directors present at the meeting, provided that notice of no less than twenty four (24) hours in advance shall be given to all the directors of the time of the adjourned meeting. The directors may waive the necessity of such notice either beforehand or retrospectively. The quorum for the commencement of the adjourned meeting shall be at least one member of the Board.

Methods of Attending Meetings

71. Some or all of the directors may attend meetings of the Board through computer network, telephone or any other media of communication, enabling the directors to communicate with each other, in the deemed presence of all of them, provided that due prior notice detailing the time and manner of holding a given meeting is served upon all the directors. The directors may waive the necessity of such notice either beforehand or retrospectively.

Any resolution adopted by the Board in such a meeting, pursuant to the provisions of these Articles, will be recorded in writing and signed by the Chairman (or in his absence by the chairman of the meeting), and shall be valid as if adopted at a meeting of the Board duly convened and held.

72. A resolution in writing signed or otherwise approved in writing by all of the directors eligible to participate in the discussion and vote on such resolution, or in respect of which all such directors have agreed (in writing by mail, fax or electronic media) not to convene, shall be as valid and effective for all purposes as if passed at a meeting of the Board duly convened and held. Any such resolution may consist of several counterparts, each signed or otherwise approved in writing by one or more directors.
