At each election for directors, every shareholder entitled to vote at such election shall have the right to vote the number of shares owned by him for as many persons as there are directors to be elected and for whose election he has a right to vote, or to cumulate his votes by giving one candidate as many votes as the number of such directors multiplied by the number of his shares shall equal, or by distributing such votes on the same principle among any number of such candidates.

Neither the business to be transacted nor the purpose of any special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting.

Section 5.7 Waiver. Attendance of a director at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice except where a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not lawfully called or convened.
