Quorum; Voting Sample Clauses

The 'Quorum; Voting' clause defines the minimum number of members or participants required to be present for a meeting or decision-making process to be valid, as well as the rules governing how votes are cast and counted. Typically, this clause specifies what constitutes a quorum—such as a majority or a specific percentage of members—and outlines the procedures for voting, including whether decisions require a simple majority, supermajority, or unanimous consent. By establishing clear thresholds for participation and decision-making, this clause ensures that actions taken by a group are legitimate and representative, thereby preventing decisions from being made by an unrepresentative minority and reducing the risk of disputes over the validity of outcomes.
