This power may be exercised by a vote of a majority of shareholders present at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders. Moreover, the directors have no power to suspend, repeal, amend or otherwise alter any bylaw or portion of any bylaw so enacted by the shareholders, unless the shareholders, in enacting any bylaw or portion of any bylaw, otherwise provide.

Section 6.5 Actions By Written Consent

 

Whenever the vote of shareholders at a meeting of shareholders is required or permitted to be taken for or in connection with any corporate action by any provision of the NRS, or of these Articles of Incorporation or of the Bylaws, the meeting and vote of shareholders may be dispensed with if the proposed corporate action is taken with the written consent of the holders of stock having a majority of the total number of votes which might have been cast for or in connection with that action if a meeting were held; provided that in no case shall the written consent be by the holders of stock having less than the minimum percentage of the vote required by statute for that action, and provided that prompt notice is given to all shareholders of the taking of a corporate action without a meeting and by less than unanimous written consent.

 

ARTICLE VII

AMENDMENTS

 

The Corporation shall be deemed, for all purposes, to have reserved the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in its Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to the extent and in the manner now or in the future permitted or prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred in these Articles of Incorporation upon shareholders are granted subject to that reservation.

Section 7.1 Powers of the Board of Directors

 

  a. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred upon the board of directors by statute, the board of directors is expressly authorized, without any vote or other action by shareholders other than such as at the time shall be expressly required by statute or by the provisions of these Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Bylaws, to exercise all of the powers, rights and privileges of the Corporation (whether expressed or implied in these Articles of Incorporation or conferred by statute) and to do all acts and things which may be done by the Corporation, including, without limiting the generality of the above, the right to:

 

  i. Pursuant to a provision of the Bylaws, by resolution adopted by a majority of the actual number of directors elected and qualified, to designate from among its members an executive committee and one or more other committees, each of which, to the extent provided in that resolution or in the Bylaws, shall have and exercise all the authority of the board of directors except as otherwise provided by law;

 

Page 4 of 8
 

 

  ii. To make, alter, amend or repeal the Bylaws;
     
  iii. To authorize the issuance from time to time of all or any shares of the Corporation, now or in the future authorized, part paid receipts or allotment certificates in respect of any such shares, and any securities convertible into or exchangeable for any such shares (regardless of whether those shares, receipts, certificates or securities be unissued or issued and subsequently acquired by the Corporation), in each case to such corporations, associations, partnerships, firms, individuals or others (without offering those shares or any part of them to the holders of any shares of the Corporation of any class now or in the future authorized), and for such consideration (regardless of whether more or less than the par value of the shares), and on such terms as the board of directors from time to time in its discretion lawfully may determine;
     
  iv. From time to time to create and issue rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of the Corporation of any class now or in the future authorized or any bonds or other obligations or securities of the Corporation (without offering the same or any part of them to the holders of any shares of the Corporation of any class now or in the future authorized);
     
  v. In furtherance and not in limitation of the provisions of the above subdivisions (iii) and (iv), from time to time to establish and amend plans for the distribution among or sale to any one or more of the officers or employees of the Corporation, or any subsidiary of the Corporation, of any shares of stock or other securities of the Corporation of any class, or for the grant to any of such officers or employees of rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any such shares or other securities, without in any case offering those shares or any part of them to the holders of any shares of the Corporation of any class now or in the future authorized; such distribution, sale or grant may be in addition to or partly in lieu of the compensation of any such officer or employee and may be made inconsideration for or in recognition of services rendered by the officer or employee, or to provide him/her with an incentive to serve or to agree to serve the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation, or otherwise as the board of directors may determine; and
     
  vi. To sell, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, or otherwise dispose of or encumber all or any part of the assets of the Corporation unless and except to the extent otherwise expressly required by statute.

 

  b. The board of directors, in its discretion, may from time to time:

 

  i. Declare and pay dividends upon the authorized shares of stock of the Corporation out of any assets of the Corporation available for dividends, but dividends may be declared and paid upon shares issued as partly paid only upon the basis of the percentage of the consideration actually paid on those shares at the time of the declaration and payment;
     
  ii. Use and apply any of its assets available for dividends, subject to the provisions of these Articles of Incorporation, in purchasing or acquiring any of the shares of stock of the Corporation; and

 

Page 5 of 8
 

 

  iii. Set apart out of its assets available for dividends such sum or sums as the board of directors may deem proper, as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies, or for equalizing dividends, or for maintaining or increasing the property or business of the Corporation, or for any other purpose it may deem conducive to the best interests of the Corporation. The board of directors in its discretion at any time may increase, diminish or abolish any such reserve in the manner in which it was created.

 

Section 7.2 Indemnification

 

  a. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he/she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him/her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he/she acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his/her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his/her conduct was unlawful.
     
  b. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he/she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him/her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, suit or proceeding if he/she acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his/her duty to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action, suit or proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such other court shall deem proper.
     
  c. To the extent that any person referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Article has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to therein or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he/she shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him/her in connection therewith.

 

Page 6 of 8
 

 

  d. Any indemnification under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he/she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Article. Such determination shall be made (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (c) by the shareholders.
     
  e. Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized by the board of directors in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be determined that he/she is entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as provided in this Article.
     
  f. The indemnification provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any statute, bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his/her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
     
  g. The Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him/her and incurred by him/her in any such capacity, or arising out of his/her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him/her against such liability under the provisions of this Article 7.
     
  h. For the purposes of this Article, references to “the Corporation” include all constituent corporations absorbed in a consolidation or merger as well as the resulting or surviving corporation so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such a constituent corporation or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he/she would if he/she had served the resulting or surviving corporation in the same capacity.
