No person shall be permitted at the meeting to vote or consent with respect to any bond appearing upon such certificate, or any bond which it shall be established at or prior to the meeting is owned by the District, directly or indirectly, and no such bond (in this resolution referred to as “issuer-owned bond”) shall be counted in determining whether a quorum is present at the meeting.

The Board of Directors of the District shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, and the meeting shall be organized by the election of a permanent chairman and a secretary. At any meeting each bondholder shall be entitled to one vote for every $1,000 principal amount of bonds with respect to which he shall be entitled to vote as aforesaid, and such vote may be given in person or by proxy duly appointed by an instrument in writing presented at the meeting.
