STOCKHOLDERS

 

Section 2.1. Place of Meeting. Meetings of the stockholders shall be held either at the principal office of the Corporation or at any other place, within or without the State of Nevada, as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors and designated in the notice of the meeting or executed waiver of notice. The Board of Directors may determine, in its discretion, that any meeting of the stockholders may be held solely by means of electronic communication in accordance with Section 2.2.

 

Section 2.2. Participation by Remote Communication. If authorized by the Board of Directors, and subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board of Directors may adopt, stockholders and proxy holders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication, participate in the meeting and be deemed present in person and vote at the meeting, whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that (i) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxy holder, (ii) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxy holders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings, and (iii) if any stockholder or proxy holder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

Section 2.3. Annual Meeting. An annual meeting of stockholders, for the purpose of electing directors and transacting any other business as may be brought before the meeting, shall be held on the date and time fixed by the Board of Directors and designated in the notice of the meeting.

 

Section 2.4. Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders may be called by the Board of Directors, the Chairman or by the Chief Executive Officer. The only business which may be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders shall be the matter or matters set forth in the notice of such meeting.

 

Section 2.5. Fixing the Record Date. The Board of Directors may fix in advance a record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights in respect of any change, concession or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action. Such record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted and shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other action to which such record date relates.

 

If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day before the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day before the day on which the meeting is held. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting when no prior action by the Board of Directors is necessary, shall be the day on which the first written consent is expressed. The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating to such purpose.

 

A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

 

Section 2.6. Notice of Stockholders’ Meeting. Written notice stating the place (if any), date, and time of the meeting, the means of any electronic communication by which stockholders may participate in the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be given not less than ten (10), and not more than sixty (60), days before the date of the meeting.

 

Notice to each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting shall be given personally, by mail, or by electronic transmission if consented to by a stockholder, by or at the direction of the Secretary or the officer or person calling the meeting. If mailed, the notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail addressed to the stockholder at the stockholder’s address as it appears on the share transfer records of the Corporation, with postage thereon prepaid.

 

2

 

 

Any stockholder entitled to notice of a meeting may sign a written waiver of notice delivered to the Corporation either before or after the meeting. A stockholder’s participation or attendance at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice, except where the stockholder attends for the specific purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

 

Section 2.7. Voting Lists. The Corporation shall prepare, as of the record date fixed for a meeting of stockholders, an alphabetical list of all stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (or any adjournment thereof). Such list will be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. Such list will be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and will be subject to the inspection of any stockholder who may be present

 

If any stockholders are participating in the meeting by remote communication, the list shall be open to examination by the stockholders for the duration of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access the list shall be provided to stockholders with the notice of the meeting.

 

The Corporation shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, at least ten (10) days before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date). Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting (1) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (2) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time of the meeting, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communications, the list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. This list shall determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them. Except as provided by applicable law, the stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger and the list of stockholders or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders

 

Section 2.8. Quorum of Stockholders. At each meeting of stockholders for the transaction of any business, a quorum must be present to organize such meeting. The presence in person, by means of remote communication, or by proxy of a majority of the voting power constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of stockholders, except as otherwise required by the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “Nevada Revised Statutes”). If any class or series of shares is permitted or required to vote separately on any action, the presence in person, by means of remote communication, or by proxy of a majority of the voting power of such class or series constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business.

 

3

 

 

The holders of a majority of the voting power represented in person, by means of remote communication, or by proxy at a meeting, even if less than a quorum, may adjourn or postpone the meeting from time to time.

 

Section 2.9. Conduct of Meetings. The Board of Directors, as it shall deem appropriate, may adopt by resolution rules and regulations for the conduct of meetings of the stockholders. At every meeting of the stockholders, the Chairman, or in the Chairman’s ’s absence or inability to act, a director or officer designated by the Board of Directors, shall serve as chair of the meeting. The Secretary or, in the Secretary’s absence or inability to act, the person whom the chair of the meeting shall appoint, shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep the minutes thereof.

 

The chair of the meeting shall determine the order of business and, in the absence of a rule adopted by the Board of Directors, shall establish rules for the conduct of the meeting. The chair of the meeting shall announce the close of the polls for each matter voted upon at the meeting, after which no ballots, proxies, votes, changes, or revocations will be accepted. Polls for all matters before the meeting will be deemed to be closed upon final adjournment of the meeting.

 

Section 2.10. Voting of Stock. Each outstanding share of stock, regardless of class or series, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders, except as otherwise provided by these Bylaws and to the extent that the Articles of Incorporation or the certificate of designation establishing the class or series of stock provides for more or less than one vote per share or limits or denies voting rights to the holders of the shares of any class or series of stock.

 

Unless a different proportion is required by the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or the Nevada Revised Statutes:

 

(a) If a quorum exists, action other than the election of directors is approved if the votes cast in favor of the action exceed the votes cast against the action.

 

(b) If a quorum exists of any class or series of stock that is permitted or required to vote separately on any matter, action is approved by the class or series if a majority of the voting power of a quorum of that class or series votes in favor of the action.

 

Stockholders are prohibited from cumulating their votes in any election of directors of the Corporation.

 

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election at a meeting at which a quorum is present.

 

Section 2.11. Voting by Proxy. A stockholder may vote either in person or by proxy executed in writing by the stockholder or the stockholder’s attorney-in-fact. Any copy, communication by electronic transmission, or other reliable written reproduction may be substituted for the stockholder’s original written proxy for any purpose for which the original proxy could have been used if such copy, communication by electronic transmission, or other reproduction is a complete reproduction of the entire original written proxy.

 

4

 

 

No proxy shall be valid after six months from the date of its creation unless the proxy specifies its duration, which may not exceed seven years from the date of its creation. A proxy shall be revocable unless the proxy states that the proxy is irrevocable and the proxy is coupled with an interest sufficient to support an irrevocable power.

 

A properly created proxy or proxies continues in full force and effect until either of the following occurs:

 

(a) One of the following is filed with or transmitted to the Secretary of the Corporation or another person or persons appointed by the Corporation to count the votes of the stockholders and determine the validity of proxies and ballots: (i) another instrument or transmission properly revoking the proxy; or (ii) a properly created proxy or proxies bearing a later date.

 

(b) The stockholder executing the original written proxy revokes the proxy by attending a stockholders’ meeting and voting its shares in person, in which case any votes cast by that stockholder’s previously designated proxy or proxies shall be disregarded by the Corporation when the votes are counted.

 

Section 2.12. Action by Stockholders Without a Meeting. Any action required or permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes to be taken at a meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent to the action is signed by stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the Corporation or, if different, the proportion of voting power required to take the action at a meeting of stockholders.

A director entitled to notice of a meeting may sign a written waiver of notice delivered to the Corporation either before or after the time of the meeting. A director’s participation or attendance at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice, except where the director attends for the specific purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

 

Section 3.11. Quorum and Action by Directors. A majority of the Board of Directors then in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

6

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS

 

Section 5.1. Indemnification in Actions by Third Parties. The Corporation shall, to the extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes, indemnify any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation or is or was serving at the Corporation’s request as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other entity (each such person, an “Indemnitee”) against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, other than a proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation, to which the Indemnitee is, was, or is threatened to be made a party by reason of being an Indemnitee, if the Indemnitee either:

 

(a) Did not breach, through intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law, the Indemnitee’s fiduciary duties as a director or officer to act in good faith and in the interests of the Corporation.

 

(b) Acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee 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 the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

 

Section 5.2. Indemnification in Actions by or on Behalf of the Corporation. The Corporation shall, to the extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes, indemnify any Indemnitee against expenses, including attorneys’ fees and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed suit or action by or in the right of the Corporation to which the Indemnitee is, was, or is threatened to be made a party by reason of being an Indemnitee, if the Indemnitee either:

 

(a) Did not breach, through intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law, the Indemnitee’s fiduciary duties as a director or officer to act in good faith and in the interests of the Corporation.

 

(b) Acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.

Neither the Corporation nor any of its officers, directors, employees, or agents shall be liable for regarding that person as the owner of those shares at that time for those purposes, regardless of whether that person possesses a certificate for those shares and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by law.

 

Section 6.4. Lost, Stolen, or Destroyed Certificates. The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the owner of the allegedly lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate. When authorizing the issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Board of Directors, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, may require the owner of the allegedly lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate, or the owner’s legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond or other security sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against the Corporation or other obligees with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed or the issuance of such new certificate or certificates.
