Closing of Transfer Books. For the purposes of determining the shareholders who are entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders or an adjournment thereof, or the shareholders who are 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 stock transfer books shall be closed for a stated period not to exceed fifty days.

A majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation entitled to vote, when represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of shareholders. If less than a majority of the outstanding shares are represented at a meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time (but not to exceed sixty days) 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 scheduled. The shareholders present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of shareholders sufficient to leave less than a quorum. Unless a greater vote on a particular matter is required by law, by the Articles of Incorporation, or by these Bylaws, a majority vote of the shares present and entitled to vote shall carry any action proposed or voted on at a shareholders' meeting. 2.09.

Shares standing in the name of another corporation may be voted by such officer, agent, or proxy as the bylaws of such corporation may prescribe, or, in the absence of such provisions, as the Board of Directors of such corporation may determine, provided, however, that no shares held by another corporation, the election of whose directors is controlled by this corporation, shall be entitled to vote. Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian, or conservator may be voted by such person, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into such person's name. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by the trustee, either in person or by proxy, but a trustee shall not be entitled to vote shares so held without a transfer of such shares into the trustee's name. Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by the receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by the receiver without the transfer thereof into the receiver's name if the authority to do so is contained in an appropriate order of the court by whom the receiver was appointed. A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.

Any director may waive notice of any meeting. The attendance of a director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted nor the purpose of any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting. 3.05. Action Without Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if a written consent setting forth the action so taken is signed by all of the directors that would have been entitled to vote on the action had a meeting been held. 3.06. Quorum. A majority of the Board of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Board of Directors, but if less than such majority be present at a meeting, a majority of the directors present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice.

Vacancies. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors shall be filled by the Board of Directors until an annual meeting is held and new directors are elected by the shareholders. Any directorship to be filled by reason of an increase in the number of directors shall be filled by election at an annual meeting of shareholders or at a special meeting of shareholders called for that purpose. A director chosen to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall hold office until the director's successor shall have been elected and qualified. 3.09. Compensation. By resolution of the Board of Directors the directors may be paid their expenses, if any, for attendance at any meeting of the Board of Directors, and, if such compensation is approved by a majority vote of the shareholders entitled to vote, may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at any meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated salary as director. No payment shall preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. 3.10. Presumption of Assent. A director of the corporation who is present at a meeting of the Board of Directors at which action on any corporate matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless the dissent of the director shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless the director shall file a written dissent to such action before adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered mail to the Secretary of the corporation immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a director who voted in favor of the action dissented to. 3.11. Removal of Directors.

One or more directors or the entire Board of Directors may be removed, with or without cause, by a vote of the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors.

A director shall be entitled to receive notice of and a hearing with respect to his or her removal for cause. 3.12. Standards of Conduct. A director shall discharge his or her duties as a director, including his or her duties as a member of a committee, in good faith, with the care an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances; and in a manner that he or she reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation.

A director is not acting in good faith if the director has knowledge concerning the matter in question that makes otherwise permissible reliance unwarranted.

The consideration for the issuance of shares may be paid, in whole or in part, in money, in other property, tangible or intangible, or in labor or services actually performed for the Corporation. When payment of the consideration for which shares are to be issued shall have been received by the Corporation, such shares shall be deemed to be fully paid and nonassessable.

No dividends shall be paid upon the capital stock in any medium if the source out of which it is proposed to pay the dividend is due to or arises from unrealized appreciation in value or from a revaluation of assets, or if the Corporation is, or is thereby rendered, incapable of paying its debts as they become due in the usual course of its business. 6.05. Uncertified Shares. Shares of the capital stock of the Corporation shall not be issued without a certificate. ARTICLE 7 Amendments 7.01. Amendment.
