     derivative and corportate actions) shall be made by the

        quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the

        and a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested directors so
        directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion;
            (3)  by such other body as may be provided in the bylaws;
        or
            (4)  by the members.
