In addition to the provisions of sections 351.265 and 351.267 regarding the adjournment of shareholders meetings at which a quorum is not present, unless the bylaws provide to the contrary, a meeting may be otherwise successively adjourned to a specified date not longer than ninety days after such adjournment or to another place. Notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken.

2. A shareholder’s meeting may be successively postponed by resolution of the board of directors, unless otherwise provided in the bylaws, to a specified date up to a date ninety days after such postponement or to another place, provided notice of the date and place of the postponed meeting, which may be by public notice, is given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.
