(3) Before or during any such emergency, the board may change the head office or designate several alternative head offices or regional offices, or authorize the officers so to do, said change to be effective during the emergency.

(5) Unless otherwise provided in emergency by-laws, notice of any meeting of the board during any such emergency need be given only to such of the directors as it may be feasible to reach at the time and by such means as may be feasible at the time, including publication, or other means of mass communication. (6) To the extent required to constitute a quorum at any meeting of the board during any such emergency, the officers of the corporation who are present shall, unless otherwise provided in emergency by-laws, be deemed, in order of rank and within the same rank in order of seniority, directors for such meeting.
