Of

1.1     Principal Office. The principal office of the Corporation shall be located at any place either within or outside the State of Nevada as designated in the Corporation’s most current Annual Report filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (the “Annual Report”). The Corporation may have such other offices, either within or without the State of Nevada, as the business of the Corporation may require from time to time.

 

1.2     Records at Principal Office. The Corporation shall maintain at its principal office a copy of the records described in Section 2.10(a) of these Bylaws.

 

1.3     Registered Office. The Corporation shall maintain a registered office in the State of Nevada as required by the Nevada Business Corporation Act (Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes) (the “Act”). The address of the registered office may be changed from time to time.

 

2.            Shareholders.

 

2.1     Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of the shareholders shall be held at such time, place and on such date as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (“Board”) or the President may designate within or without the State of Nevada. The purpose of such meeting shall be the election of directors and the transaction of such other business as may properly come before it. If the election of directors shall not be held on the day designated for an annual meeting, or at any adjournment thereof, the Board shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of the shareholders to be held as soon thereafter as may be practicable.

 

2.2     Special Meeting. Special meetings of the shareholders, for any purpose or purposes, may be called at any time by the Board or the President, and such meeting shall be called by any director upon receipt of a written request signed by a shareholder or shareholders holding together at least 25% of the votes of the Corporation’s shares entitled to vote.

 

2.3     Place of Meeting. All meetings of the shareholders for the election of directors shall be held at such place either within or without the State of Nevada as shall be designated from time to time by the Board and stated in the notice of the meeting. Meetings of shareholders for any other purpose may be held at such time and place either within or without the State of Nevada as shall be stated in the notice of such meeting. If a meeting is called at the demand of the shareholders and they designate any place within the State of Nevada as the place for the holding of such meeting, the meeting shall take place at the place designated. If no designation is properly made, the place of meeting shall be at the principal office of the Corporation.

 

 
 

 

2.4     Notice of Meetings and Adjourned Meetings. Written notice of the annual meeting or a special meeting stating the place, date and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be given to each shareholder entitled to vote at such meeting and to any other shareholder entitled by the Act or the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) to receive notice of the meeting not fewer than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting. Notice shall be deemed to be effective at the earlier of: (1) when deposited in the United States mail, addressed to the shareholder at his address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the corporation, with postage thereon prepaid; (2) on the date shown on the return receipt if sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, and the receipt is signed by or on behalf of the addressee; (3) when received; or (4) 3 days after deposit in the United States mail, if mailed postpaid and correctly addressed to an address other than that shown in the corporation’s current record of shareholders.

 

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the shareholders may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

 

2.5     Waiver of Notice. A shareholder may waive any notice required by the Act, the Articles, or these Bylaws, by a writing signed by the shareholder entitled to the notice, which is delivered to the corporation either before or after the time stated in the notice for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the Corporation’s records.

 

A shareholder’s attendance at a meeting:

 

(a)     waives objection to lack of notice or defective notice of the meeting, unless the shareholder at the beginning of the meeting objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting because of lack of notice or effective notice; and

 

(b)     waives objection to consideration of a particular matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in the meeting notice, unless the shareholder objects to considering the matter when it is presented.

 

2.6     Record Dates. The Board may fix a record date of shareholders of not more than 70 days before the meeting or action requiring a determination of shareholders in order to determine the shareholders of any group entitled to notice of a shareholders’ meeting, to demand a special meeting, to vote or to take any other action. A determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a shareholders’ meeting, shall be effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the Board fixes a new record date, which it shall do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting. If not otherwise fixed by the Board in accordance with these Bylaws, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at an annual or special shareholders’ meeting shall be the day before the first notice is delivered to shareholders, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to receive a distribution shall be the date the Board authorizes the distribution, and the record date for any consent action taken by shareholders without a meeting and evidenced by one or more written consents shall be the first date upon which a signed written consent setting forth such action is delivered to the Corporation at its principal office shown in its most recent Annual Report.

2.7     Shareholder List. After fixing a record date for a shareholder meeting, the corporation shall prepare a list of the names of its shareholders entitled to be given notice of the meeting. The shareholder list must be available for inspection by any shareholder, beginning on the earlier of 10 days before the meeting for which the list was prepared or 2 business days after notice of the meeting for which the list was prepared is given and continuing through the meeting, and any adjournment thereof. The list shall be available at the corporation’s principal office or at a place identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting is to be held.

 

2.8     Quorum, Adjournment, and Voting Requirements.

 

(a)     Quorum and Adjournment. Except as otherwise required by the Act or the Articles, a majority of the votes of the Corporation’s shares entitled to vote, represented by person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at each meeting of the shareholders. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the shareholders, the chairman of the meeting or a majority of the shareholders who are entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented.

 

(b)     Voting of Shares. If a quorum exists, action on a matter, other than the election of directors, is approved if the votes cast favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the Articles or the Act require a greater number of affirmative votes. Except as otherwise provided in the Articles, any Certificate of Designation permitted by the Articles, or these Bylaws, each outstanding share, regardless of class, is entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of the shareholders.

 

(c)     Quorum and Voting Requirements of Voting Groups. If the Articles or the Act provide for voting by a single voting group on a matter, action on that matter is taken when voted upon by that voting group.

 

Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting, it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or must be set for the adjourned meeting.

 

Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on a matter at a meeting only if a quorum of those shares exists with respect to that matter. Unless the Articles or the Act provide otherwise, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter by the voting group constitutes a quorum of that voting group for action on that matter.

 

-3-
 

 

If the Articles or the Act provide for voting by two or more voting groups on a matter, action on that matter is taken only when voted on by each of those voting groups counted separately. Action may be taken by one voting group on a matter even though no action is taken by another voting group entitled to vote on the matter.

 

If a quorum exits, action on a matter, other than the election of directors, by a voting group is approved if the votes cast within the voting group favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the Articles or the Act require a greater number of affirmative votes.

 

2.9     Greater Quorum or Voting Requirements. The Articles may provide for a greater quorum or voting requirement for shareholders, or voting groups of shareholders, than is provided for by these Bylaws. An amendment to the Articles that adds, changes, or deletes a greater quorum or voting requirement for shareholders must meet the same quorum requirement and be adopted by the same vote and voting groups required to take action under the quorum and voting requirement then in effect or proposed to be adopted, whichever is greater.

 

2.10   Proxies. At all meetings of shareholders, the shareholders may vote their shares in person or by proxy. A shareholder may appoint a proxy to vote or otherwise act for the shareholder by signing an appointment form, either personally or by the shareholder’s duly authorized attorney-in-fact. An appointment of a proxy shall be effective when the appointment form is received by the Secretary or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes. An appointment shall be valid for 11 months from the date of its execution unless a longer, or shorter, period is expressly provided in the appointment form. An appointment of proxy shall be revocable by the shareholder unless the appointment form conspicuously states that it is irrevocable and the appointment is coupled with an interest. The revocation of an appointment of proxy shall not be effective until the Secretary or such other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes has received written notice thereof. The death or incapacity of a voter does not invalidate a proxy unless the Corporation is put on notice. A transferee for value who receives shares subject to an irrevocable proxy can revoke the proxy if he had no notice of the proxy. All proxies shall be filed with the Secretary or the person authorized to tabulate votes before or at the time of the meeting.

 

2.11   Corporation’s Acceptance of Votes.

 

(a)     If the name signed on a vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment, or proxy appointment revocation corresponds to the name of a shareholder, the corporation, if acting in good faith, is entitled to accept the vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment, or proxy appointment revocation and give it effect as the act of the shareholder.

 

(b)     If the name signed on a vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment, or proxy appointment revocation does not correspond to the name of a shareholder, the corporation, if acting in good faith, is nevertheless entitled to accept the vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment, or proxy appointment revocation and give it effect as the act of the shareholder if:

 

-4-
 

 

(1)     the shareholder is an entity as defined in the Act and the name signed purports to be that of an officer or agent of the entity;

 

(2)     the name signed purports to be that of an administrator, executor, guardian, or conservator representing the shareholder and, if the Corporation requests, evidence of fiduciary status acceptable to the Corporation has been presented with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment or proxy appointment revocation;

 

(3)     the name signed purports to be that of a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy of the shareholder and, if the corporation requests, evidence of this status acceptable to the corporation has been presented with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment, or proxy appointment revocation;

 

(4)     the name signed purports to be that of a pledgee, beneficial owner, or attorney-in-fact of the shareholder and, if the corporation requests, evidence acceptable to the corporation of the signatory’s authority to sign for the shareholder has been presented with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment, or proxy appointment revocation; or

 

(5)     two or more persons are the shareholders as co-tenants or fiduciaries and the name signed purports to be the name of at least one of the co-owners and the person signing appears to be acting on behalf of all co-tenants or fiduciaries.

 

(c)     If shares are registered in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, co-tenants, husband and wife as community property, voting trustees, persons entitled to vote under a shareholder voting agreement or otherwise, or if two or more persons (including proxy holders) have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the secretary of the corporation or other officer or agent entitled to tabulate votes is given written notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting shall have the following effect:

 

(1)     if only one votes, such act binds all;

 

(2)     if more than one votes, the act of the majority so voting binds all;

 

(3)     if more than one votes, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each fraction may vote the securities in question proportionately.

 

If the instrument so filed or the registration of the shares shows that any tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even split for the purpose of this section shall be a majority or even split in interest.

 

(d)     The Corporation is entitled to reject a vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment or proxy appointment revocation if the secretary or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes, acting in good faith, has reasonable basis for doubt about the validity of the signature on it or about the signatory’s authority to sign for the shareholder.

 

-5-
 

 

(e)     The Corporation and its officer or agent who accepts or rejects a vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment, or proxy appointment revocation in good faith and in accordance with the standards of this section are not liable in damages to the shareholder for the consequences of the acceptance or rejection.

 

(f)     Corporate action based on the acceptance or rejection of a vote, consent, waiver, proxy appointment or proxy appointment revocation under this section is valid unless a court of competent jurisdiction determines otherwise.

 

2.12   Action of Shareholders without a Meeting.

 

(a)     Written Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the shareholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if one or more consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof were present and voted. Action taken under this section has the same effect as action taken at a duly called and convened meeting of shareholders and may be described as such in any document.

 

(b)     Post-Consent Notice. Unless the written consents of all shareholders entitled to vote have been obtained, notice of any shareholder approval without a meeting shall be given at least ten days before the consummation of the action authorized by such approval to (i) those shareholders entitled to vote who did not consent in writing, and (ii) those shareholders not entitled to vote. Any such notice must be accompanied by the same material that is required under the Act to be sent in a notice of meeting at which the proposed action would have been submitted to the shareholders for action.

 

(c)     Effective Date and Revocation of Consents. No action taken pursuant to this section shall be effective unless all written consents necessary to support this action are received by the Corporation within a sixty-day period and not revoked. Such action is effective as of the date the last written consent is received necessary to effect the action, unless all of the written consents specify an earlier or later date as the effective date of the action. Any shareholder giving a written consent pursuant to this section may revoke the consent by a signed writing describing the action and stating that the consent is revoked, provided that such writing is received by the Corporation prior to the effective date of the action.

 

(d)     Unanimous Consent for Election of Directors. Notwithstanding subsection (a), directors may not be elected by written consent unless such consent is unanimous by all shares entitled to vote for the election of directors.

 

2.13   Cumulative Voting for Directors. At each election for directors of the Corporation, each shareholder entitled to vote at such election shall have the right to cast, in person or by proxy, as many votes in the aggregate as the shareholder shall be entitled to vote under the Articles, multiplied by the number of directors to be elected at such election. Each shareholder may cast the whole number of votes for one candidate or distribute such votes among two or more candidates. Directors shall not be elected in any other manner.

2.14   Inspection of Records by Shareholders.

 

(a)     Inspection After Notice.

(1)     excerpts from minutes of any meeting of the Board, records of any action of a committee of the Board while acting in place of the Board on behalf of the Corporation, minutes of any meeting of the shareholders, and records of action taken by the shareholders or the Board without a meeting, to the extent not otherwise subject to inspection under Section 2.10(a) above;

Any vacancy occurring on the Board for any reason, including, but not limited to, the resignation, removal, or death of a director, or an increase in the number of authorized directors, may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, during such time that the shareholders fail or are unable to fill any such vacancy.

Notice of any meeting of the Board need not be given to any director who is present at such meeting; and any meeting of the Board shall be a legal meeting without any notice thereof having been given if all of the directors then in office are present at the meeting unless a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.
