NOTOC
= Voting Process & Escalation Procedure =
This document formally defines the voting mechanics, resolution procedures, and deadlock escalation protocols for all corporate governance events at '''Arcscribe Ltd'''.

== Escalation Diagram ==
Motions proposed during corporate events follow a strict hierarchical voting process. If a definitive majority cannot be reached at one level, the vote escalates to the next tier until a binding resolution is achieved.

<div style="display: inline-block; padding: 0.5em 1em; background-color: #e6e6ff; border: 1px solid #002bb8; font-weight: bold;">Phase 3: Board of Shareholders (Class A–F)</div>
</div>

== Phase 1: Board of Directors ==
All motions—including operational changes, hardware acquisitions, and commercial partnerships—are first brought before the active Board of Directors.
* '''Quorum Required:''' A majority of active board members must be present.
* '''Resolution:''' A simple majority is required to pass or reject the motion.
* '''Deadlock Trigger:''' If a vote results in a tie (or if board members abstain, resulting in no clear majority), the motion immediately escalates to Phase 2.

== Phase 2: Ordinary Shareholders ==
Motions deadlocked at the Board level are presented to the Ordinary Shareholders for a general vote.
* '''Quorum Required:''' At least 50% of registered ordinary shareholders must cast a vote (in person or by proxy).
* '''Resolution:''' A simple majority (50% + 1) dictates the outcome.
* '''Deadlock Trigger:''' If the Ordinary Shareholders are evenly split, the standard voting mechanisms are exhausted, and the motion escalates to the final tie-breaking procedure in Phase 3.

== Phase 3: Board of Shareholders (Deadlock Resolution) ==
In the event of an absolute deadlock, the Board of Shareholders utilizes a tiered, class-based voting system to force a resolution. Voting power cascades down through the share classes strictly in alphabetical order until a majority is established.

|-
| '''Class A''' || Primary Tie-Breaker || Class A shareholders cast their votes. If a majority is reached within this class, the motion is resolved. If Class A is tied or unavailable, escalate.
|-
| '''Class B''' || Secondary Tier || Class B shareholders vote. If a majority is reached, the motion is resolved. If tied, escalate.
|-
| '''Class C''' || Tertiary Tier || Class C shareholders vote. If a majority is reached, the motion is resolved. If tied, escalate.
|-
| '''Class D''' || Quaternary Tier || Class D shareholders vote. If a majority is reached, the motion is resolved. If tied, escalate.
|-
| '''Class E''' || Quinary Tier || Class E shareholders vote. If a majority is reached, the motion is resolved. If tied, escalate.
|-
| '''Class F''' || Final Tier || Class F shareholders cast the final vote. Decisions reached at this tier are binding and cannot be further escalated.
|}

=== Voting Mechanics & Compliance ===
* Votes must be formally logged in the master ledger along with the specific phase and class that finalized the decision.
* Preliminary confidence votes regarding sitting Directors follow this exact same escalation path.
* Appeals (e.g., regarding disciplinary actions) are fast-tracked to the Board of Shareholders if Phase 1 cannot achieve a majority.
