Section 3/96. Every corporation created under the laws of this
State may determine by its certificate of incorporation or articles of
association, or an amendment thereof, or by its by-laws, the man-
ner of calling and conducting all meetings; what notice thereof
shall be given, and in what manner; what number of shares shall
entitle the stockholders to one or more votes; and may, by its
original or amended certificate of incorporation, or articles of asso-
ciation, provided that any action which, at the time, requires the
consent of the holders of two-thirds of the stock at any meeting,
or requires their consent in a writing to be filed, shall require the
consent of the holders of two-thirds of the stock of each class, rep-
resented at a meeting in person or by proxy, or given in a writing
to be filed; but, a majority in interest of the stock having voting
power, represented either in person or by proxy at any meeting,
shall constitute a quorum, unless otherwise provided in the charter
of the corporation, or an amendment thereto.
