Except as otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or bylaws, a vacancy in the position of a director who is: Elected by a voting group of members, by a chapter or other organizational unit of members, or by a region or other geographic grouping of members, shall be filled during the first 3 months after the vacancy occurs only by that voting group or chapter, unit, region, or grouping; Appointed by persons other than the members, may be filled only by those persons; or Designated in the articles of incorporation or bylaws shall not be filled by action of the board of directors. A vacancy that will occur at a specific later time, by reason of a resignation effective at a later time under § 29-406.07(b) or otherwise, may be filled before the vacancy occurs but the new director shall not take office until the vacancy occurs.
