Section 2.02  Special Meetings.  Special meetings of the stockholders may be called at any time by the chairman of the board, the president, or by the board of directors, or in their absence or disability, by any vice president, and shall be immediately called by the president or, in his absence or disability, by a vice president or by the secretary on the written request of the holders of not less than one-tenth of all the shares entitled to vote at the meeting, such written request to state the purpose or purposes of the meeting and to be delivered to the president, each vice-president, or secretary.  In case of failure to call such meeting within 20 days after such request, such shareholder or shareholders may call the same.

 

Section 2.03  Place of Meetings.  The board of directors may designate any place, either within or without the state of incorporation, as the place of meeting for any annual meeting or for any special meeting called by the board of directors.  A waiver of notice signed by all stockholders entitled to vote at a meeting may designate any place, either within or without the state of incorporation, as the place for the holding of such meeting.  If no designation is made, or if a special meeting be otherwise called, the place of meeting shall be at the principal office of the corporation.

 

Section 2.04  Notice of Meetings.  The secretary or assistant secretary, if any, shall cause notice of the time, place, and purpose or purposes of all meetings of the shareholders (whether annual or special), to be mailed at least ten days, but not more than 60 days, prior to the meeting, to each shareholder of record entitled to vote.

 

Section 2.05  Waiver of Notice.  Any stockholder may waive notice of any meeting of shareholders (however called or noticed, whether or not called or noticed and whether before, during, or after the meeting), by signing a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of such meeting, or an approval of the minutes thereof.  Attendance at a meeting, in person or by proxy, shall constitute waiver of all defects of call or notice regardless of whether waiver, consent, or approval is signed or any objections are made.  All such waivers, consents, or approvals shall be made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

 

Section 2.06  Fixing Record Date.  For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any annual meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or shareholder entitled to receive payment of any dividend or in order to make a determination of shareholders for any other proper purpose, the board of directors of the corporation may provide that the share transfer books shall be closed, for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at such meeting, but not for a period exceeding sixty (60) days.  If the share transfer books are closed for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at such meeting, such books shall be closed for at least ten (10) days immediately preceding such meeting.

 

 

 

In lieu of closing the share transfer books, the board of directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, such date in any case to be not more than sixty (60) and, in case of a meeting of shareholders, not less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the particular action requiring such determination of shareholders is to be taken.  If the share transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting or to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the board of directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of shareholders.  When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.  Failure to comply with this section shall not affect the validity of any action taken at a meeting of shareholders.

 

Section 2.07  Voting Lists.  The officer or agent of the corporation having charge of the share transfer books for shares of the corporation shall make, at least ten (10) days before each meeting of shareholders, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of, and the number of shares held by each, which list, for a period of ten (10) days prior to such meeting, shall be kept on file at the registered office of the corporation and shall be subject to inspection by any shareholder during the whole time of the meeting.  The original share transfer book shall be prima facia evidence as to the shareholders who are entitled to examine such list or transfer books, or to vote at any meeting of shareholders.

 

Section 2.08  Quorum.  One-third of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of the corporation entitled to vote, represent in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of the shareholders.  If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of the voting power represented by shares at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject shall constitute action by the shareholders, unless the vote of a greater number or voting by classes is required by the laws of the state of incorporation of the corporation or the articles of incorporation.  If less than one-third of the outstanding voting power is represented at a meeting, a majority of the voting power represented by shares so present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice.  At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.

Section 2.10  Proxies.  At each meeting of the shareholders, each shareholder entitled to vote shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy; provided, however, that the right to vote by proxy shall exist only in case the instrument authorizing such proxy to act shall have been executed in writing by the registered holder or holders of such shares, as the case may be, as shown on the share transfer of the corporation or by his attorney thereunto duly authorized in writing.  Such instrument authorizing a proxy to act shall be delivered at the beginning of such meeting to the secretary of the corporation or to such other officer or person who may, in the absence of the secretary, be acting as secretary of the meeting.  In the event that any such instrument shall designate two or more persons to act as proxies, a majority of such persons present at the meeting, or if only one be present, that one shall (unless the instrument shall otherwise provide) have all of the powers conferred by the instrument on all persons so designated.  Persons holding stock in a fiduciary capacity shall be entitled to vote the shares so held and the persons whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote, unless in the transfer by the pledge or on the books of the corporation he shall have expressly empowered the pledgee to vote thereon, in which case the pledgee, or his proxy, may represent such shares and vote thereon.

Section 6.03  Regulations.  Subject to the provisions of this section VI and of the articles of incorporation, the board of directors may make such rules and regulations as they may deem expedient concerning the issuance, transfer, redemption, and registration of certificates for shares of the corporation.

Section 6.05  Transfer Agents and Registrars.  The board of directors may appoint one or more transfer agents and one or more registrars with respect to the certificates representing shares of the corporation, and may require all such certificates to bear the signature of either or both.  The board of directors may from time to time define the respective duties of such transfer agents and registrars.  No certificate for shares shall be valid until countersigned by a transfer agent, if at the date appearing thereon the corporation had a transfer agent for such shares, and until registered by a registrar, if at such date the corporation had a registrar for such shares.

(a)  The board of directors shall have power to close the share books of the corporation for a period of not to exceed 60 days preceding the date of any meeting of shareholders, or the date for payment of any dividend, or the date for the allotment of rights, or capital shares shall go into effect, or a date in connection with obtaining the consent of shareholders for any purpose.

 

(b)  In lieu of closing the share transfer books as aforesaid, the board of directors may fix in advance a date, not exceeding 60 days preceding the date of any meeting of shareholders, or the date for the payment of any dividend, or the date for the allotment of rights, or the date when any change or conversion or exchange of capital shares shall go into effect, or a date in connection with obtaining any such consent, as a record date for the determination of the shareholders entitled to a notice of, and to vote at, any such meeting and any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any such dividend, or to any such allotment of rights, or to exercise the rights in respect of any such change, conversion or exchange of capital stock, or to give such consent.

 

(c)  If the share transfer books shall be closed or a record date set for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, such books shall be closed for, or such record date shall be, at least ten (10) days immediately preceding such meeting.

 

Section 6.07  Lost or Destroyed Certificates.  The corporation may issue a new certificate for shares of the corporation in place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost or destroyed, and the board of directors may, in its discretion, require the owner of the lost or destroyed certificate or his legal representatives, to give the corporation a bond in such form and amount as the board of directors may direct, and with such surety or sureties as may be satisfactory to the board, to indemnify the corporation and its transfer agents and registrars, if any, against any claims that may be made against it or any such transfer agent or registrar on account of the issuance of such new certificate.  A new certificate may be issued without requiring any bond when, in the judgment of the board of directors, it is proper to do so.

 

Section 6.08  No Limitation on Voting Rights; Limitation on Dissenter's Rights.  To the extent permissible under the applicable law of any jurisdiction to which the corporation may become subject by reason of the conduct of business, the ownership of assets, the residence of shareholders, the location of offices or facilities, or any other item, the corporation elects not to be governed by the provisions of any statute that (i) limits, restricts, modified, suspends, terminates, or otherwise affects the rights of any shareholder to cast one vote for each share of common stock registered in the name of such shareholder on the books of the corporation, without regard to whether such shares were acquired directly from the corporation or from any other person and without regard to whether such shareholder has the power to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power over any specific fraction of the shares of common stock of the corporation issued and outstanding or (ii) grants to any shareholder the right to have his stock redeemed or purchased by the corporation or any other shareholder on the acquisition by any person or group of persons of shares of the corporation.  In particular, to the extent permitted under the laws of the state of incorporation, the corporation elects not to be governed by any such provision, including the provisions of the Nevada Control Share Acquisition Act, section 78.378 et seq., of the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada, as amended, or any statute of similar effect or tenor.

INDEMNIFICATION, INSURANCE, AND

OFFICER AND DIRECTOR CONTRACTS

 

Section 8.01  Indemnification:  Third Party Actions.  The corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

 

Section 8.02  Indemnification:  Corporate Actions.  The corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such a person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine on application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

 

Section 8.03  Determination.  To the extent that a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding referred to in section 8.01 and 8.02 hereof, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.  Any other indemnification under section 8.01 and 8.02 hereof, shall be made by the corporation upon a determination that indemnification of the officer, director, employee, or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in sections 8.01 and 8.02 hereof.  Such determination shall be made either (i) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit, or proceeding; or (ii) by independent legal counsel on a written opinion; or (iii) by the shareholders by a majority vote of a quorum of shareholders at any meeting duly called for such purpose.

 

Section 8.04  General Indemnification.  The indemnification provided by this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other indemnification granted under any provision of any statute, in the corporation's articles of incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of such a person.

 

Section 8.05  Advances.  Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding as contemplated in this section may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or proceeding upon a majority vote of a quorum of the board of directors and upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officers, employee, or agent to repay such amount or amounts unless if it is ultimately determined that he is to indemnified by the corporation as authorized by this section.

 

Section 8.06  Scope of Indemnification.  The indemnification authorized by this section shall apply to all present and future directors, officers, employees, and agents of the corporation and shall continue as to such persons who ceases to be directors, officers, employees, or agents of the corporation, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of all such persons and shall be in addition to all other indemnification permitted by law.

 

 

 

Section 8.07  Insurance.  The corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against any such liability and under the laws of the state of incorporation, as the same may hereafter be amended or modified.
