Ind. Code § 8-1-13-6

Sec. 6. (a) Each corporation formed under this chapter shall have a board of directors that constitutes the governing body of the corporation. The directors must be members, or if the corporation's bylaws so provide, a member's officers, directors, or partners, or the owner of a member that is a sole proprietorship may be directors of the corporation. Directors other than those named in the corporation's articles of incorporation shall be elected by the members entitled to vote for the directors. Unless the bylaws of the corporation provide otherwise, the directors shall be elected annually. The bylaws may provide that:

(1) the directors may hold office for any stated period not exceeding three (3) years;

(2) the directors be elected so that the terms of only part of the directors expire at any one time; and

(3) only enough directors to succeed those whose terms are about to expire are elected in any year.

(b) The bylaws may provide that the territory where the members of the corporation reside be apportioned into districts and prescribe the procedure by which the members residing in any one (1) district may nominate a director.

(c) The bylaws may specify a fair remuneration for the time actually spent by its officers, directors, and members of its executive committee in the performance of their duties and provide that the remuneration be paid to the officers, directors, and members of the executive committee. The officers, directors, and members of the executive committee are entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred in the performance of their duties whether or not the bylaws provide that they be remunerated for their time spent in the performance of those duties. The board shall annually designate and elect those officers it considers necessary.
