Article 4.17(d) of the Bylaws states “If a director who is an individual becomes Affiliated during his or her term and such Affiliation violates the Director Diversity Requirement, such individual shall resign as a director.” However, 4.17(e) says "A violation of the Director Diversity Requirement may be waived by a vote of two thirds of the Board of Directors (not including the directors who are Affiliated).” Amy has requested that the Board vote on a motion to waive the violation under 4.17(e). In the case of this Board vote Daniel, Julia and Amy would abstain from voting and the remaining Directors could vote to waive or not waive the violation for the remainder of the 2020 term.
