Each  inspector,  before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take  and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector  at  such  meeting  with  strict  impartiality  and  according  to  the best of his  ability.    (b) Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of  incorporation  or  by-laws,  paragraph (a) of this section shall not apply to a corporation  that does not have a class of voting stock that is listed on a  national  securities  exchange  or  authorized  for  quotation  on  an interdealer  quotation  system  of  a  registered  national  securities  association.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing, any corporation may take the actions set  forth in paragraph (a) of this section.
