DISPUTES OF MEMBERS Disputes among Members will be decided by a majority vote. A Member has votes according to that Member’s percent of ownership interest (e.g., 11% ownership equals 11 votes). A majority vote is necessary for an action to take place. Any vote under this Section may occur, provided a quorum of the membership interests is present for the vote. In the event of a split vote among the Members, the Chief Executive Member shall cast a vote to break the tie. Members are required to vote on at least one (1) resolution that attempts to address and resolve the dispute between the Members prior to any Member bringing a direct action under Section 00-00-000 of the Act. Subject to Section 00-00-000 of the Act, Members may maintain a derivative action to enforce a right of the Company, provided the acting Member properly demands the other Member(s) to enforce the right of the Company, or the acting Member adequately declares with particularity that such demands are futile.
