                  the meeting;

        (b)       may require the adoption of any procedure which is in the chairman’s opinion necessary

                           meeting; or

                  (ii)     a postponement is necessary in light of the behaviour of persons present or for

                  time and place for the meeting as if specified in the notice which called the meeting
                  originally).

                  (i)      adjourn the meeting or any business, motion, question or resolution being
                           considered or remaining to be considered by the meeting either to a later time at
                           the same meeting or to an adjourned meeting; and

                           effecting an adjournment – no business may be transacted and no discussion
