(a) Unless otherwise stated in the certificate of formation, the management of the limited liability company is vested in its members. Subject to any provisions in the operating agreement or this chapter restricting or enlarging the management rights and duties of any person or group or class of persons, the members shall have the right and authority to manage the business or affairs of the limited liability company and to make all decisions with respect thereto. (b) If the certificate of formation vests management of the limited liability company in one or more managers, then the managers shall have the power to manage the business or affairs of the limited liability company as provided in the operating agreement. Except as otherwise provided in the operating agreement, the managers: (1) Shall be designated, appointed, elected, removed, or replaced by a vote, approval, or consent of more than one-half the number of members. (2) Need not be members of the limited liability company or natural persons. (3) Unless they have been earlier removed or have earlier resigned, shall hold office until their successors have been elected and qualified. (c) The certificate of formation of a limited liability company may provide for classes or groups of members or managers having such relative rights, powers, and duties as so provided, and may make provision for the future creation of additional classes or groups of members or managers having such relative rights, powers, and duties as may be created in the manner provided in the certificate of formation, including rights, duties, and powers senior to existing classes and groups of members or managers. The certificate of formation may provide for taking action, including the amendment of the certificate of formation or operating agreement, without the vote or approval of one or more members or classes or groups of members or managers, including an action to create one or more classes of interests in the company that were not previously outstanding, but are authorized under the certificate of formation. (d) The certificate of formation may grant to all or certain identified members or managers or a specified class or group of members or managers the right to vote separately or with all or any class or group of members or managers on any matter. Voting by members or managers may be on a per capita, number, financial interest, class, group, or any other basis. (e) The governing documents may, with respect to any rights to vote, set forth provisions relating to notice of the time, place, or purpose of any meeting at which any matter is to be voted on by any members or managers or class or group of members or managers, waiver of the notice, action by consent without a meeting, establishment of a record date, quorum requirements, voting in person or by proxy, or any other matter with respect to the exercise of any such right to vote.
