Directors and officers shall discharge the duties of their respective positions in good faith and with that degree of diligence, care, and skill which ordinarily prudent men would exercise under similar circumstances in like positions. In discharging their duties, directors and officers, when acting in good faith, may rely upon financial information concerning the electric membership corporation when such information is represented to them by the president of the electric membership corporation or by the employee of the electric membership corporation having charge of its books of account, or in the form of a written report by an independent or certified public accountant or firm of such accountants, to be correct and to reflect fairly the financial condition of the electric membership corporation.
