and upon such notice as is prescribed in or pursuant to the bylaws.
(2) Unless a greater number is required in the bylaws, a majority of the directors in office shall constitute a quorum for
transaction of business. Unless a greater number is required in
the bylaws, an act of the majority of the directors present at a
meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the
board.

was not lawfully convened.

meeting of the board need not be specified in the notice or waiver
of notice of such meeting.

1. All participating directors may simultaneously hear each
other during the meeting.

transmitted to each participating director, and each participating
director is able to immediately send messages to all other participating directors.

means described in par. (a), all participating directors shall be informed that a meeting is taking place at which official business

means described in par. (a) is deemed to be present in person at
the meeting. If requested by a director, minutes of the meeting
