10 September 2010 Dear Friend

In case the no of director reduced below to the quorum fix by the Act for a meeting of the Board, the continue remaining continuing director may act for the purpose of increasing the number directors to that fixed for the quorum or for summoning of the general meeting of the company, but not for any other purpose. {Clause 75 of Table A of Schedule I of Companies Act, 1956}

So in your case, you can appoint one more director for complying quorum of the meeting of Board as per the above mention clause.
