At any adjourned meeting, any business that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called may be transacted without further notice. The joinder of a Board Member in the action of a meeting by signing and concurring in the minutes thereof shall constitute the presence of such Board Member for the purpose of determining a quorum. h) The presiding officer of Board Members' meetings shall be the Chairman of the Board of Directors, if such an officer has been elected; and if none, then the President of the Association shall preside.
