corporation may require.
Section 1.3. Registered Agent. The corporation shall have and maintain in

Section 2.2. Lost Certificates. The Board of Directors may direct that a
new share certificate be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued
by the corporation which has been mutilated or which is alleged to have been
lost, stolen or destroyed, upon presentation of each such mutilated certificate
or the making by the person claiming any such certificate to have been lost,
stolen or destroyed of an affidavit as to the fact and circumstance of the loss,
theft or destruction thereof, or complying with such other procedures as may be
established by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors, in its discretion
and as a condition precedent to the issuance of any new certificate, may require
the owner of any certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, or
his legal representative, to furnish the corporation with a bond, in such sum
and with such surety or sureties as it may direct, as indemnity against any
claim that may be made against the corporation on account of the alleged loss,
theft or destruction of such certificate or the issuance of such new
certificate.
Section 2.3. Fractions of Shares. The corporation may, but shall not be
required to, issue fractions of a share. If the corporation does not issue
fractions of a share, it shall (1) arrange for the disposition of fractional
interests by those entitled thereto, (2) pay in cash the fair value of fractions
of a share as of the time when those entitled to receive such fractions are
determined, or (3) issue scrip or warrants in registered or bearer form which
shall entitle the holder to receive a certificate for a full share upon the
surrender of such scrip or warrants aggregating a full share. A certificate for
a fractional share shall, but scrip or warrants shall not unless, otherwise
provided therein, entitle the holder to exercise voting rights, to receive
dividends thereon, and to participate in any of the assets of the corporation in
the event of liquidation. The Board of Directors may cause scrip or warrants to
be issued subject to the conditions that they shall become void if not exchanged
for certificates representing full shares before a specified date, or subject to
the conditions that the shares for which scrip or warrants are exchangeable may
be sold by the corporation and the proceeds thereof distributed to the holders
of scrip or warrants, or subject to any other conditions with the Board of
Directors may impose.

registrar, if any, and on surrender of the certificate or certificates for such
shares of stock properly endorsed and the payment of all taxes due thereon.

distribution or the allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights
in respect of any change, conversion, or exchange of stock or for the purpose of
any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix in advance, a record
