501A.704 Filling vacancies.
1. Patron directors. If a patron member director’s position becomes vacant or a new director position is created for a director that was or is to be elected by patron members, the board, in consultation with the directors elected by patron members, shall appoint a patron member of the cooperative to fill the director’s position until the next regular or special members’ meeting. If there are no directors elected by patron members on the board at the time of the vacancy, a special patron members’ meeting shall be called to fill the patron member director vacancy.
2. Nonpatron directors. If the vacating director was not elected by the patron members or a new director position is created, unless otherwise provided in the articles or bylaws, the board shall appoint a director to fill the vacant position by majority vote of the remaining or then serving directors even though less than a quorum. At the next regular or special members’ meeting, the members or patron members shall elect a director to fill the unexpired term of the vacant director’s position.
