A. The name of the Corporation is Inter Parfums, Inc. (the “Corporation”), and its original Certificate of Incorporation was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on May 6, 1985.

 

B. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation is hereby amended in order to add a new Article NINTH. To accomplish the foregoing amendment, the new Article NINTH is added as follows:

 

“NINTH: Without in any way limiting the power and authority of the Board of Directors as otherwise provided for herein, the following corporate actions shall require the approval of the Board of Directors:

 

(a) any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of all or any material portion of the assets of the Company (including, without limitation, any shares of any subsidiary of the Company or any of its subsidiaries);

 

(b) the acquisition by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of shares, securities or assets of any company or entity, whether by merger, consolidation or other business combination, share purchase, asset purchase, contribution to capital or otherwise (other than short-term financial investments in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice);

 

(c) the entry, renewal or termination by the Company or any of its subsidiaries into/of any trademark license agreement; or

 

(d) any material agreement or material transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries and not in the ordinary course of business.

 

Notwithstanding anything in these Articles to the contrary, the following corporate actions shall require the unanimous approval of the Board of Directors (as constituted without any vacancies):

 

(a) any material change in the business of the Company and its subsidiaries from Business of the Company and its subsidiaries;

 

 

 

 

(b) issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any securities in return for consideration less than the Fair Market Value thereof (except for stock splits, stock dividends and employee and nonemployee director options to acquire Common Stock granted with an exercise price per share at the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant);

 

(c) borrowing or issuing any evidence of indebtedness by the Company or any of its subsidiaries unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis is not greater than the consolidated stockholder’s equity as shown in the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet of the Company for the then most recently completed fiscal year;

 

(d) any transaction by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with a Majority Shareholder or any Affiliate of a Majority Shareholder; notwithstanding the foregoing, unanimous board consent shall not apply to executive compensation issues or reimbursement of expenses incurred on behalf of the Company, both in the ordinary course of business in accordance with its past practices;

 

(e) declaration or payment of dividends if the aggregate amount of dividends paid by the Company and its subsidiaries (excluding wholly-owned subsidiaries) in respect of any fiscal year is more than thirty percent (30%) of the annual net income of the Company for the then most recently completed fiscal year, as indicated by the audited Consolidated Statements of Income of the Company;

 

(f) direct or indirect sale or other disposition of all or any substantial portion of the business of or a controlling interest in, or all or substantially all of the assets of, Inter Parfums, S.A., the Company’s indirect, French subsidiary; notwithstanding the foregoing, unanimous board consent shall not be deemed to apply to discontinuance of any product line, unless such discontinuance involves a sale or other disposition, and the net sales attributable to all such product lines exceeds in the aggregate five percent (5%) of the net sales of the Company for the then most recently completed fiscal year as indicated by the audited Consolidated Statements of Income of the Company;

 

(g) merger or consolidation or other business combination involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries (i) if not for fair value; or (ii) with a person not engaged primarily in the Business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (except for one or a series of mergers or consolidations, the value of which does not singularly or in the aggregate exceed five percent (5%) of the total assets of the Company as of the then most recently completed fiscal year (valued at historical cost) as reflected on the audited Consolidated Balance Sheets of the Company);

 

(h) any change in the number of the members of the Board of Directors to less than six (6) or more than ten (10) members; and
