Quorum; Actions Clause Samples

The 'Quorum; Actions' clause defines the minimum number of members or representatives required to be present for a meeting or decision-making process to be valid. Typically, this clause specifies what constitutes a quorum—such as a majority or a specific percentage of members—and outlines the procedures for taking official actions once a quorum is established. For example, it may state that no business can be conducted unless a quorum is present, and that decisions require a certain vote threshold. The core function of this clause is to ensure that decisions are made with adequate participation, preventing a small, unrepresentative group from making binding decisions on behalf of the whole.

In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes of the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of Securityholders, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days as determined by the permanent chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting.
