originally noticed. The shareholders present at a duly organized meeting may
continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the
withdrawal of enough shareholders to leave less than a quorum.

in person or by proxy executed in writing by the shareholder or by his or duly
authorized attorney-in-fact. Such proxy shall be filed with the secretary of

addressed, with postage thereon prepaid. If notice be given by telegram, such
notice shall be deemed to be delivered when the telegram is delivered to the

of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not
lawfully called or convened.
Section 6. Quorum. A majority of the number of Directors fixed by Section 2

this Corporation as a Director, Officer, employee, agent, partner , or
fiduciary of, or in any other capacity for, another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, or other enterprise. The term "Proceeding" shall mean any

loss (including, without limitation, attorney fees, judgments, fines, taxes,
penalties, and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred
or suffered by the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding.
Indemnification pursuant to this Section shall continue as to an Indemnitee
who has ceased to be a Director or Officer and shall inure to the benefit of
his or her heirs, executors and administrators. This Corporation may, by
action of its Board of Directors, and to the extent provided in such action,
indemnify employees and other persons as though they were Indemnitees. The
rights to indemnification as provided in this Article shall be non - exclusive

program of self-insurance; (c) securing its obligation of indemnification by
granting a security interest or other lien on any of this Corporation's assets,

therefrom, to be liable for intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing
violation of law, except with respect to advancing expenses or indemnification
ordered by a court. Any insurance or other financial arrangement made on
behalf of a person pursuant to this section may be provided by this

relating to their amendment generally, any repeal or amendment of this Article
which is adverse to any Director or Officer shall apply to such Director or
Officer only on a prospective basis and shall not limit the rights of an
Indemnitee to indemnification with respect to any action or failure to act
occurring prior to the time of such repeal or amendment. Notwithstanding any
other provision of these Bylaws, no repeal or amendment of these Bylaws shall
affect any or all of this Article so as to limit or reduce the indemnification
in any manner unless adopted by (a) the unanimous vote of the Directors of
this Corporation then serving, or (b) the stockholders as set forth in Article
XII hereof; provided that no such amendment shall have retroactive effect
inconsistent with the preceding sentence.

provision thereof shall be to such law as it existed on the date these Bylaws

the indemnification rights or the rights to advancement of expenses which this
Corporation may provide, the rights to limited liability, to indemnification
and to the advancement of expenses provided in this Corporation's Articles of
Incorporation, these Bylaws, or both shall continue as theretofore to the
extent permitted by law; and (b) if such change permits this Corporation,
without the requirement of any further action by stockholders or Directors, to
limit further the liability of Indemnitees or to provide broader indemnification
rights or rights to the advancement of expenses than this Corporation was
permitted to provide prior to such change, liability thereupon shall be so
limited and the rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses shall be
so broadened to the extent permitted by law. The Corporation shall indemnify
