Section 7. Action in Writing by Directors. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation, these by-laws or the GCL, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board, or any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board or such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or such committee. ARTICLE IV COMMITTEES Section 1. Committees. The Board may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the Directors of the Corporation.

Any officer may resign at any time upon written notice to the Corporation. The Board may remove any officer with or without cause at any time, but such removal shall be without prejudice to the contractual rights of such officer, if any, with the Corporation.

Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Corporation by death, resignation, removal or otherwise may be filled for the unexpired portion of the term by the Board at any regular or special meeting. Section 2. Powers and Duties of Officers. The officers of the Corporation shall have such powers and duties in the management of the Corporation as may be prescribed by the Board and, to the extent not so provided, as generally pertain to their respective offices, subject to the control of the Board. The Board may require any officer, agent or employee to give security for the faithful performance of his duties. ARTICLE VI INDEMNIFICATION The Corporation shall be obligated to indemnify in accordance with the provisions of this Article VI: Section 1. Obligations to Indemnify. To the fullest extent authorized by the GCL (but in the case of any amendment to the GCL effective subsequent to the date of this by-law, if permitted by law, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than the GCL permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), the Corporation shall indemnify, hold harmless and advance expenses to each person (and, where applicable, whether the person died testate or intestate, the 5 personal representative of such person, the estate of such person and such person's legatees and heirs) who is or has served as Director of or officer of: (a) the Corporation; or (b) any other enterprise at the request of the Corporation, who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (herein referred to sometimes as "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he, or a person of whom he is the legal representative, is or was a Director or officer of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a Director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a Director, officer, employee or agent. Such indemnification and holding harmless shall cover all recoverable expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be an officer, Director, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 2 of this Article VI, the Corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of the Corporation. The right to indemnification conferred by this Article VI shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, if the GCL requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a Director or officer of the Corporation in his or her capacity as a Director or officer of the Corporation (and not in any other capacity in which service was rendered by such person while a Director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such Director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such Director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise. Section 2. Construction and Presumption Favoring Indemnification In connection with each claim for indemnification, this Article VI shall be liberally construed in favor of indemnification and there shall be a rebuttable presumption that the Corporation shall bear the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that the claimant is not so entitled to indemnification. 6 Section 3. Right of Claimant to Bring Suit. If a claim under this Article VI is not paid in full by the Corporation within thirty (30) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall also be entitled to be paid for any and all expenses incurred in processing such claim. Neither of the following shall be a defense to my such action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct: (a) the failure of the Corporation (including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper; or (b) an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the claimant was not entitled to indemnification. Section 4. Defense to Enforcement. It shall be a defense to any such action that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. The burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. The defense referred to in the first sentence of this Section 4 shall not be available in any action brought to enforce a claim for expense incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation. Section 5. Confidentiality. Any finding by the Board, independent legal counsel, or the stockholders, that a person asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VI is not entitled to such indemnification, and any information which may support such finding, shall be held by the Board, independent legal counsel and the stockholders in confidence to the extent permitted by law and shall not be disclosed to any third party. If the Corporation, the Board or the stockholders are requested or required (by questions, interrogatories, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other process) to disclose any such confidential information, the person or entity so requested or required shall provide the claimant with prompt notice of each such request and shall use its best efforts to lawfully not disclose any such confidential information, including without limitation, seeking a protective order at the Corporation's expense. Section 6. Contract Right. The foregoing provisions of this Article VI shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each Director and officer who serves in such capacity at any time while this Article VI is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Article VI shall not impair or otherwise affect any rights or obligations then existing with 7 respect to any state of facts then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon such state of facts. Section 7. Indemnity of Others. The Board in its discretion shall have the power on behalf of the Corporation to enter into agreements to indemnify any person, other than a Director or officer, made a party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or his testate or intestate personal representatives, legatees or heirs is or was an employee, agent or otherwise acting on behalf of the Corporation or serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. Section 8. Non-Exclusivity. The rights of indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article VI shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights not provided by this Article VI that any Director or officer may otherwise be entitled. Section 9. Severability. If for any reason a provision of this Article VI shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable, the Corporation shall remain obligated to indemnify and advance expenses pursuant to all those provisions of this Article VI which are valid and enforceable. Section 10. Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the GCL. ARTICLE VII GENERAL Section 1. Banking Arrangements. The Corporation's bank accounts shall be kept in one or more banks, trust companies or other firms or corporations carrying on banking business as the Board, the President, a Vice President, the Treasurer or any person designated for such purpose by the Board may from time to time determine.

Checks, promissory notes, bills of exchange, orders for the payment of money and other negotiable paper may be endorsed or deposited to the credit of any bank account of the Corporation by such officer or officers, person or persons as the Board, by resolution, or the President or the Treasurer, by instrument in writing, may from time to time appoint, or such checks, promissory notes, bills of exchange, orders for the payment of money and other negotiable paper may be endorsed for such deposit by means of a stamp bearing the Corporation's name. Section 2. Facsimile Signatures. The Board may from time to time authorize the use of signatures which are printed or mechanically reproduced in facsimile on checks drawn on any of the Corporation's bank accounts and on any instrument that may be issued by the Corporation as evidence of a share or other security in or obligation of the Corporation.

Any two of the Chairman of the Board, the President, a Vice President, the Secretary and the Treasurer, or any one of them together with an Assistant Secretary or an Assistant Treasurer, shall have authority to sign in the name and on behalf of the Corporation all instruments in writing and any instruments in writing so signed shall be binding upon the Corporation without any further authorization or formality. The Board shall have power from time to time by resolution to appoint any other officer or officers or any person or persons either to sign instruments in writing generally or to sign specific instruments in writing in the name and on behalf of the Corporation.
