ARTICLE VI 
Nomination and Election of Directors
 
Section 1: Nomination. Nomination for election to the Board of Directors shall be made by a Nominating Committee. Nominations may also be made from the floor at the annual meeting. The Nominating Committee shall consist of a Chairman, who shall be an Owner of the Board of Directors, and two or more Owners of the Association. The Nominating Committee shall be appointed by the Board of Directors prior to each annual meeting of the Owners, to serve from the close of such annual meeting until the close of the next annual meeting. The Nominating Committee shall make as many nominations for election to the Board of Directors as it shall in its discretion determine, but not less than the number of vacancies that are to be filled.
 
Section 2: Initial Election of Directors by Owners. At such time as the Declarant shall no longer be able to act or appoint the Board of Directors as provided for in the Declaration, the Declarant shall appoint a nominating committee consisting of the Declarant and three other Owners who are not presently Owners of the board of directors who shall make as many nominations for election to the board of directors as it shall in its discretion determine but not less than the number of directors previously been appointed by the Declarant. Once the nominating committee has made its nominations, then a list of the nominations together with a ballot shall be sent to all Owners by regular mail and shall then vote by mail as to who shall constitute the initial board of directors to be elected by the Owners. Said ballots by mail shall be returned to such person or entity as may be designated by the nominating committee at such time but in any event no longer than two weeks from the date of mailing. Those persons receiving the largest number of votes shall be elected to the vacant director positions. They shall then constitute the initial elected board of directors until the next annual meeting of the Owners.
 
Section 3: Election. At the election of Directors the Owners or their proxies may cast, in respect to each vacancy, as many votes as they are entitled to exercise. The persons receiving the largest number of votes shall be elected. Cumulative voting is not permitted.
