(2) Except as provided in the articles or bylaws, an officer may be removed at any time with or without cause by:

(a) The board;

(b) The officer who appointed the officer being removed, unless the board provides otherwise; or

(c) Any other officer authorized by the articles, the bylaws, or the board to remove the officer being removed.

(3) In this section, "appointing officer" means the officer, including any successor to that officer who appointed the officer resigning or being removed.
