Sec. 4.  (a) The bylaws, as provided in section 3 of this chapter, with acknowledgment of their adoption by the incorporators or board of directors, must provide at least the following:

(1) That the board of directors shall annually establish a date for the annual meeting.  The bylaws shall prescribe the manner of notifying the members of meetings, the manner of conducting the meetings, and the number of members constituting a quorum, which shall in no case be less than fifteen (15) members.

(2) The number of directors of the corporation, which shall not be less than five (5), all of whom shall be members.

(3) The powers and duties of the directors.

(4) The duties of the officers who are elected by the board of directors.
