Why would this be a problem? A tie vote is not a problem that must be resolved; it simply means that the motion failed to receive a majority vote. In the above case, it would mean that 2 directors can block a motion, vs. 3 directors in the case of a board with 5 members. Hardly a major difference, if you ask me. -- Arnt Richard Johansen http://arj.nvg.org/ På 1300-tallet kom tersen. Før og etter det var det meste bare rot, men så kom Schönberg og ordnet opp. Puh. Endelig litt system. Så klarte Arne Nordheim å rote det til igjen. -- Under Dusken 08/2001
