2.1 Matters Governed by Declaration. WITH REGARD TO VARIOUS MATTERS INCLUDING MEMBERSHIP, MEETINGS AND VOTING, REFERENCE IS MADE TO ARTICLE FIVE OF THE DECLARATION, WHICH IS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE.

2.2 Meetings of Members.

2.2.1 Annual Meetings. The first meeting of the members shall be held at such time as Developer selects, as more particularly provided in Article Five of the Declaration and each subsequent meeting of the members shall be held on the same day of the month of each year thereafter at the hour of 7:00 o'clock p.m., unless the time of such meeting shall be changed by resolution of the Board. If the day for the annual meeting of the members is a legal holiday, the meeting will be held at the same hour on the first day following which is not a legal holiday.

2.2.2 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the members may be called at any time by the President or by the Board, or after expiration of the Development Period, upon written request of the members who are entitled to vote ten percent (10%) of the total votes of the entire Association.

2.2.3 Notice of Meetings. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Declaration, or in the Articles or Bylaws, written notice of each meeting of the members shall be given by, or at the direction of, the Secretary or person authorized to call the meeting by hand delivering or mailing a copy of such notice, postage prepaid, not less than fourteen (14) days nor more than sixty (60) days before such meeting, to each Owner, addressed to the Owner's address last appearing on the books of the Association, in accordance with Section 9.2 hereof. Such notice shall specify the place, day and hour of the meeting and the business to be placed on the agenda, including the general nature of any proposed amendment to the articles of incorporation, bylaws, any budget or changes in the previously approved budget that result in a change in assessment obligation, and any proposal to remove a director. Presence at any such meeting shall be deemed a waiver of any required notice, or defect therein.

2.2.4 Quorum. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Declaration, a quorum is present throughout-any-meeting of the Association if the Owners to which thirty-four percent (34%) of the votes of the Association are allocated are present in person or by proxy at the beginning of the meeting. If the required quorum is not forthcoming at any Meeting, another meeting may be called, subject to the notice requirements set forth above, and the required quorum at such subsequent meeting shall be two-thirds (2/3) of the required quorum of the preceding meeting. No such subsequent meeting shall be held more than sixty (60) days following the preceding meeting. Alternatively, the Owners who are present either in person or by proxy, may adjourn the meeting to a time not less than forty-eight (48) hours from the time the original meeting was called, and the same thirty-four percent (34%) quorum requirement shall apply to the reconvened meeting.

2.2.5 Majority Vote. A majority of the votes entitled to be cast by members present or represented by proxy at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be necessary and sufficient for the adoption of any matter voted upon by members unless a greater proportion is required by the Declaration, the Articles or these Bylaws.

2.2.6 Proxies. Votes may be cast in person or by proxy. Proxies shall be in writing and the signatures must be witnessed or acknowledged. Proxies must be filed with the Secretary before the appointed time of each meeting. No proxy shall be valid for a period longer than 11 months after the date thereof.

2.2.7 Voting by Mail. The Board may provide for voting of the members by mail with respect to any particular election of Directors or with respect to adoption of any proposed amendment of the Declaration, Articles or Bylaws, or with respect to any other matter for which approval by Owners is required by the Declaration, Articles or Bylaws, in accordance with the following procedure:

(a) In case of election of Directors by mail, the existing Directors shall advise the Secretary in writing of the names of proposed Directors sufficient to constitute a full Board and of a date at least 50 days after such advice is given by which all votes are to be received. The Secretary, within 5 days after such advice is given, shall mail written notice of the number of Directors to be elected and of the names of the Board's nominees to all Owners. The notice shall state that any member may nominate an additional candidate or candidates, not to exceed the number of Directors to be elected, by notice in writing to the Secretary at the specified address of the principal office of the Association, to be received on or before a specified date 15 days from the date the notice is mailed by the Secretary. Within 5 days after such specified date the Secretary shall mail written notice to all Owners, stating the following: (1) the names of Directors to be elected, (2) the number of all persons nominated by the Board and by the members on or before said specified date, (3) that each Owner may cast a vote by mail, and (4) the date established by the Board by which such votes must be received by the Secretary at the address of the principal office of the Association, which shall be specified in the notice. Votes received after that date shall not be effective. All persons elected as Directors pursuant to such an election by mail shall take office effective on the date specified in the notice for receipt of such votes.

(b) In the case of a vote by mail relating to any other matter, the Secretary shall mail written notice to all Owners which notice shall (1) include a proposed written resolution setting forth a description of the proposed action, (2) state that such persons are entitled to vote by mail for or against such proposal and stating a date not less than 20 days after the date such notice shall have been mailed on or before which all votes must be received, and (3) state that votes must be sent to the specified address of the principal office of the Association. Votes received after the specified date shall not be effective. Any such proposal shall be adopted if approved by the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on such question, unless a greater voting requirement is established by the Declaration or Bylaws for the matter in question.

(c) Hand delivery of a vote in writing to the principal office of the Association shall be equivalent to receipt of a vote by mail at such address for the purpose of this Section 2.2.3.

(d) For purposes of a vote by mail, quorum requirements shall be deemed satisfied on the basis of the number of ballots timely submitted. If a sufficient number of ballots are not received by the Association by the required date to either constitute a quorum, or to approve a proposal, the Board may extend the date for solicitation of ballots on further notice to all members of not less than ten (10) and no more than thirty (30) days of the new date for counting of ballots. In that event all ballots previously cast on the proposal shall be counted. No such vote may be extended by more than a total of sixty (60) days.

2.2.8 Order of Business. The order of business at all meetings of the Owners of Lots shall be as follows unless dispensed with on motion:
 .1 Roll call.
 .2 Proof of Notice of meeting or waiver of notice.
 .3 Reading of minutes of preceding meeting.

2.3 Suspension of Membership. During any period in which an Owner shall be in default in the payment of any assessment levied by the Association or the Developer, the voting rights of such Owner may be suspended by the Board until such assessment has been paid. Such voting right may also be suspended after notice and a hearing, for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days, for violation of any provision of the Declaration or the rules and regulations established by the Board. In the event voting rights are suspended, such vote(s) shall not be counted for any purpose including for the purpose of determining whether a quorum has been achieved or whether any required majority or supermajority has been achieved.
