Sec. 523.(1) A majority of the members of a board who are then in office, or of the members of a committee of the board, constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business, unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws, or in the case of a committee, the board resolution that establishes the committee, provide for a larger or smaller number. However, a quorum of the board may not be less than 1/3 of the members of the board who are then in office and a quorum of an executive committee acting on behalf of the board under section 527 1 may not be less than 1/3 of members of the executive committee.
