Unless otherwise provided in the charter, each holder of shares of Common Stock shall at a meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one (1) vote in person or by proxy for each share of Common Stock held by such stockholder. At a meeting of the stockholders, all questions relating to the qualifications of voters, the validity of proxies, and the acceptance or rejection of votes shall be decided by the presiding officer of the meeting.
