Term of Office; Resignation; Removal; Vacancies. Each Director shall hold office until his or her successor is elected or appointed and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal. Any Director may resign at any time upon written notice to the Board or to such person or persons as the Board may designate. Such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, and unless otherwise specified therein no acceptance of such resignation shall be necessary to make it effective. The Member may remove any Director with or without cause at any time; provided, however, that any Director that is appointed or elected from the Fair Representation Candidates may be removed only for cause, which shall include, without limitation, the failure of such Director to be free of any statutory disqualification (as defined in section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act). Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of Directors or from any other cause shall be filled by, and only by, a majority of the Directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining Director; provided that, if a vacancy results from the death, retirement, resignation, disqualification or removal from office of a U.S. Person, then the Director chosen to fill such vacancy shall be a U.S. Person. If a vacancy results from an increase in the number of Directors which occurs between annual meetings of the stockholders at which Directors are elected, then, if necessary for U.S. Persons to remain a majority of the Board, a U.S. Person shall fill such vacancy. Any Director appointed to fill a vacancy or a newly created directorship shall hold office until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.
