Section 2.7.1 At any meeting of the Shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before a meeting, business must be: (a) specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Board of Directors, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a Shareholder or Shareholders of record, and only of record, holding not less than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the entire capital stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote in accordance with applicable law, these Bylaws or otherwise. In addition to any other applicable requirements set forth in these Bylaws, the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise, for business to be properly brought before a meeting called by Shareholders representing not less than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the entire capital stock of the Corporation, such Shareholder(s) must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary. Any special meeting of the Corporation proposed to be called by a Shareholder or Shareholders in such capacity shall not be required to be held: (i) with respect to any matter, within 12 months after any annual or special meeting of Shareholders at which the same matter was included on the agenda, or if the same matter will be included on the agenda at an annual meeting to be held within 90 days after the receipt by the Corporation of such request (the election or removal of directors to be deemed the same matter with respect to all matters involving the election or removal of directors) or (ii) if the purpose of the special meeting is not a lawful purpose or if such request violates applicable law. A Shareholder may revoke a request for a special meeting at any time by written revocation delivered to the Secretary, and if, following such revocation, there are un-revoked requests from Shareholders holding in the aggregate less than the requisite number of shares entitling the Shareholders to request the calling of a special meeting, the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may cancel the special meeting. If none of the Shareholders who submitted the request for a special meeting appears or sends a qualified representative to present the nominations proposed to be presented or other business proposed to be conducted at the special meeting, the Corporation need not present such nominations or other business for a vote at such meeting.

Section 2.7.4 Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at a meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 7 The Chairman of the meeting shall, in his or her sole discretion, determine and declare to the meeting whether or not any business was properly brought before the meeting. Any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. Nothing in this Section 7 shall affect the right of a Shareholder to request inclusion of a proposal in the Corporation’s proxy statement to the extent that such right is provided by an applicable rule of the SEC.

Section 2.8. Quorum. Shareholders of the Corporation holding at least a majority of the voting power of the Corporation, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the Shareholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Articles of Incorporation.

Section 2.10. Proxies.

Section 2.11. Action by Consent. Any action which may be taken by the vote of Shareholders at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if authorized by the written consent of Shareholders holding at least a majority of the voting power; provided, (a) that if any greater proportion of voting power is required for such action at a meeting, then such greater proportion of written consents shall be required; and (b) that this general provision for action by written consent shall not supersede any specific provision for action by written consent contained in any application, statute, rule of law, regulation, ordinance or contract. In no instance where action is authorized by written consent need a meeting of Shareholders be called or noticed.

 

Section 2.12. Telephonic Meetings. Shareholders may participate in a meeting of Shareholders by means of a telephone conference or similar method of communication by which all persons participating in the meeting can hear one another.
