     § 1310.  Organization meeting.
        (a)  General rule.--After the corporate existence begins, an
     organization meeting of the initial directors or, if directors
     are not named in the articles, of the incorporator or
     incorporators shall be held, within or without this
     Commonwealth, for the purpose of adopting bylaws which they
     shall have authority to do at the meeting, of electing
     directors, if directors are not named in the articles, and the
     transaction of such other business as may come before the
     meeting. A bylaw adopted at the organization meeting of
     directors or incorporators shall be deemed to be a bylaw adopted
     by the shareholders for the purposes of this subpart and of any
     other provision of law.
        (b)  Call of and action at meeting.--The meeting may be held
     at the call of any director or, if directors are not named in
     the articles, of any incorporator, who shall give at least five
     days' written notice thereof to each other director or
     incorporator, which notice shall set forth the time and place of
     the meeting. For the purposes of this section, any incorporator
     may act in person, by written consent or by proxy signed by him
     or his attorney-in-fact.
        (c)  Death or incapacity of directors or incorporators.--If a
     designated director or an incorporator dies or is for any reason
     unable to act at the meeting, the other or others may act. If
     there is no other designated director or incorporator able to
     act, any person for whom an incorporator was acting as agent may
     act or appoint another to act in his stead.
