(3) Any amendment to the articles of incorporation or bylaws of an issuing public corporation relating to whether or not the corporation is subject to ORS 60.801 to 60.816 that is adopted or approved by the shareholders must be adopted or approved by holders of voting shares with at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of voting shares in addition to any other vote that may be required by statute or the articles of incorporation.
(4) Upon request by any person, a corporation shall inform the person whether or not the corporation’s articles of incorporation or bylaws provide that ORS 60.801 to 60.816 do not apply to acquisitions of its voting shares. [1989 c.4 §2; 1991 c.7 §2]
