42. Any appointed committee member absent without sufficient or just cause from two consecutive meetings of such committee shall thereupon cease to be a member of that committee, unless the Board shall otherwise determine. In such case, the Board shall appoint a replacement.

45. All acts done by any meeting of the Board or any appointed committee, notwithstanding that there was some defect in the appointment of any member of the Board or appointed committee, shall be as valid as if every such person were duly appointed.
