The Board shall have the power to determine each year whether or not an annual meeting shall be held.

 

Section 2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by the Articles of Incorporation or any applicable law or regulation, may be called by the President or the Secretary by resolution of the Board or at the request in writing of stockholders owning not less than a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation and entitled to vote. Such request shall state the purpose of the proposed meeting.

 

Section 3. Place of Meetings. The Board may designate any place, either within or without the State of Nevada, as the place of meeting for any annual meeting or special meeting. If no designation is made, the place of meeting shall be the registered office of the Corporation.

When a quorum is present or represented at any meeting, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be sufficient to elect directors or to decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which, by express provision of applicable law or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange on which any securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.
