(4) If a vacancy occurs by death, resignation, removal or otherwise in the office of a liquidator, the company in general meeting may fill the vacancy by the appointment of a liquidator and fix the remuneration to be paid to him, and for that purpose a general meeting may be convened by any contributory, or if there were more liquidators than one by the continuing liquidators. (5) The meeting shall be held in manner provided by this Act or by the articles or in such manner as is on application by any contributory or by the continuing liquidators determined by the Court.
