court may set another time for the election.

of Chapter 11 in which § 1125 does not apply, the election may

be made no later than a date the court sets.

in writing and signed, unless made at the hearing on the disclosure statement. An election made by the majorities required by

§ 1111(b)(1)(A)(i) is binding on all members of the class.
