إذا شعر مركز عضو في مجلس الإدارة، خلفه فيه من كان حائزا لأكثر الأصوات
من المساهمين الذين لم يفوزوا بعضوية مجلس الإدارة، وإذا قام مانع خلفه من يليه،
ويكمل العضو الجديد مدة سلفه فقط.
أما إذا بلغت المراكز الشاغرة ربع المراكز الأصلية، فإنه يتعين على مجلس الإدارة
دعوة الجمعية العامة العادية لتجتمع في ميعاد شهرين من تاريخ شغر آخر مرکز،
وتنتخب من يملأ المراكز الشاغرة.Ask about this article
