If the demand is received less than seventy-two (72) hours prior to the time set for the next meeting, the Board may determine that the notice constitutes the initiation of litigation, and that the need to take action on the threatened litigation arose subsequent to the posting of the Agenda and may consider it at that meeting pursuant to Section 1 (J) above. A description of any item so placed on the Agenda shall include both consideration of the demand, and the possibility of corrective action, by the Board.

C. Implementing Corrective Action . If a motion to take corrective action passes, the Chairperson may entertain a motion implementing corrective action . Any motion implementing corrective action shall address the concerns raised in the consideration of corrective action. The motion implementing corrective action may include a motion to rescind prior action taken , as appropriate . Passage of a motion to rescind invalidates prior action only as of the time of the passage of the motion , and not from the date of the initial action . A motion implementing corrective action resulting from a written demand is out-of-order if the action complained of (a) was in connection with the sale or issuance of notes, bonds or other evidences of indebtedness , or any contract , agreement or incident thereto ; or (b) gave rise to a contractual obligation upon which a party has, in good faith, detrimentally relied . In any event , the Board shall notify the party making the demand in writing of its decision to take corrective action and shall describe any corrective action taken . This notice shall be given to the demanding party as soon as possible after the meeting , but in no event more than thirty (30) days after receipt of the demand.
