(a) A bylaw that fixes a greater or lesser quorum requirement for action by the board of directors, or a greater voting requirement, than provided for by this chapter may be adopted in the initial bylaws, or thereafter by the shareholders pursuant to subsection (a) of section 10.20, or by the board of directors if authorized by subsection (a) of section 10.20.

(b) A bylaw authorized by subsection (a) may be amended or repealed by the shareholders, or by the board of directors if authorized by subsection (a) of section 10.20;

(c) A bylaw adopted or amended by the shareholders pursuant to subsection (a) may provide that it may be amended or repealed only by a specified vote of the shareholders, or by a specified vote of the board of directors if the board is authorized to act by both subsection (a) of section 10.20 and subsection (b) of this section.

(d) If the board of directors is authorized to amend the bylaws by subsection (a) of section 10.20, approval by the board of directors of an amendment to the bylaws that changes or deletes a quorum or voting requirement for action by the board of directors must satisfy both the applicable quorum and voting requirements for action by the board of directors with respect to amendment of the bylaws, and also the particular quorum and voting requirements sought to be changed or deleted.
