If the secretary refuses to give such notice, or if there be no secretary, the call may be addressed directly to the stockholders, and be served as a notice, in which case it must specify the time and place of meeting. The notice must be given in the manner prescribed in the bylaws. If, however, no provision has been made in the bylaws, then it shall be served in the manner prescribed in Section 63-1-9 NMSA 1978. In case of removal, the vacancy may be immediately filled by election at the same meeting.
