(3) Any other officer may be chosen by the board.
(4) All officers shall have such authority and perform such duties as the bylaws provide, or as the board may determine, not inconsistent with the bylaws. Any officer may be removed by the board whenever in its judgment the best interests of the cooperative will be served thereby. Election or appointment shall not of itself create contract rights.
