shall arrange, by consent if possible, or by a random process, to&lt;br /&gt;
adjust sufficient Members&#039; term of office expiration date such that&lt;br /&gt;
approximately one-third of the membership of the Board retires on each&lt;br /&gt;
upcoming Handover Date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Resignation of Existing Members ==&lt;br /&gt;

== Reappointment of Existing Members ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. At the expiration of a Member of the Board&#039;s term of office, if he&lt;br /&gt;
wishes, he may be re-appointed to a new term at the discretion of the&lt;br /&gt;
Board.  The Board shall vote on the re-appointment by secret ballot;&lt;br /&gt;
the vote-taker (the Chair) shall publish the results of the vote to the&lt;br /&gt;
Board, but not the individual ballots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. If the Chair is himself up for re-appointment, the vote shall be&lt;br /&gt;
taken by the Vice-Chair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. The member whose reappointment is at issue may cast a ballot in this   &lt;br /&gt;
vote as usual.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. The vote tallies shall not be published to the public, though the&lt;br /&gt;
re-appointment itself shall be announced.&lt;br /&gt;

== Appointment of New Members ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. The Board shall at all times consist of at least three Members.&lt;br /&gt;

a. If the number of Members falls to two, then the two Members shall&lt;br /&gt;
appoint a third Member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
b. If the number of Members falls to one, that Member shall appoint a&lt;br /&gt;
second Member; the two Members will then appoint a third Member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. There shall be no upper limit to the number of Members that may&lt;br /&gt;
comprise the Board.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Except in cases covered by IV(2) or VI(1), appointment of new&lt;br /&gt;
Members shall be by two-thirds majority of active Members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. [[Adding Members to the Board|How new members are added to the board.]]&lt;br /&gt;
