HRS §414-148
Rules for higher shareholder voting requirements
A company's articles of incorporation can set higher quorum or voting requirements for shareholders than the law normally requires. If the articles are changed to add, change, or remove such a requirement, the change must be approved using the stricter of the current or proposed voting rules.
The statute, as written — Greater quorum or voting requirements
(a) The articles of incorporation may provide for a greater quorum or voting requirement for shareholders (or voting groups of shareholders) than is provided for by this chapter. (b) An amendment to the articles of incorporation that adds, changes, or deletes a greater quorum or voting requirement must meet the same quorum requirement and be adopted by the same vote and voting groups required to take action under the quorum and voting requirements then in effect or proposed to be adopted, whichever is greater.
