The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at a meeting and entitled to vote thereat shall be necessary for the adoption of a motion or for the determination of all questions and business that come before the meeting, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of applicable law or of the Articles of Incorporation, a different vote is required in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. Upon demand of any stockholder in attendance at the meeting, the vote for directors and the vote upon any other question before the meeting shall be by ballot. 09. ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action that, under any provision of law, may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if a consent in writing, setting forth the actions to be taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Unless a record date for voting purposes is fixed as provided in Section 07 of this Article, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to give consent pursuant to this Section when no prior action by the Board of Directors has been taken, shall be the day on which the first written-consent is given. 10.

A vacancy in the Board of Directors shall be deemed to exist in the case of the death, resignation or removal of any director, or if the authorized number of directors is increased, or if the stockholders fail at any annual or special meeting of stockholders at which any director is elected to elect the full authorized number of Directors to be voted for at the meeting. If the Board of Directors accepts the resignation of a director tendered to take effect at a future time, the Board of Directors shall have power to elect a successor to take office when the resignation is to become effective.

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgment, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person 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 such person's 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 such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and with respect to any criminal action proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person's conduct was unlawful. 02. DERIVATIVE ACTION. The Corporation shall 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 the Corporation's favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorney's fees) and amount paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to amounts paid in settlement, the settlement of the suit or action was in the best interests of the Corporation; provided, however, that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such person's duty to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that, the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as such court shall deem proper. The termination of any action or suit by judgment or settlement shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation. 03. SUCCESSFUL DEFENSE. To the extent that a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise, in whole or in part in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 01 or 02 of this Article, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith. 04. AUTHORIZATION. Any indemnification under Sections 01 and 02 of this Article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, trustee, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 01 and 02 of this Article. Such determination shall be made (a) by the Board of Directors of the Corporation by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (b) is such a quorum is not obtainable, by a majority vote of the directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (c) by independent legal counsel (selected by one or more of the directors, whether or not a quorum and whether or not disinterested) in a written opinion, or (d) by the stockholders. Anyone making such a determination under this Section 04 may determine that a person has met the standards therein set forth as to some claims, issues or matters but not as to others, and may reasonably prorate amounts to be paid as indemnification. 05. ADVANCES. Expenses incurred in defending civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation, at any time or from time to time in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized in the manner provided in Section 04 of this Article upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, trustee, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be by the Corporation as authorized in this Section. 06. NONEXCLUSIVITY. The indemnification provided in this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any law, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's 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, trustee, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person. 07.

FURTHER BYLAWS. The Board of Directors may from time to time adopt further bylaws with specific respect to indemnification and may amend these and such bylaws to provide at all times the fullest indemnification permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes.
