(b)(1) Right to Indemnification. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Association or is or was serving at the request of the Association as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action or inaction in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Association to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Association to provide broader

-3-NEXT PAGE

indemnification rights than said law permitted the Association to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that the Association shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Association. The right to indemnification conferred in this paragraph (b) shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Association the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, if the Delaware General Corporation Law requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director of officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Association of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director of officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this paragraph (b) or otherwise. The Association may, by action of its Board of Directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the Association with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors and officers.

(2) Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this paragraph (b) shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Articles of Association, by-law, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

(3) Insurance. The Association may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Association or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Association would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

A notice of each annual or special shareholders' meeting, setting forth the time, place, and purpose of the meeting, shall be given, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each shareholder of record at least ten days prior to the date on which such meeting is to be held; but any failure to mail such notice of any annual meeting, or any irregularity therein, shall not affect the validity of such annual meeting or of any of the proceedings thereat. Notwithstanding anything in these by-laws to the contrary, a valid shareholders' meeting may be held without notice whenever notice thereof shall be waived in writing by all shareholders, or whenever all shareholders shall be present or represented at the meeting.

Section 1.4 Quorum. The holders of a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the shareholders for the transaction of business, and may transact any business except such as may, under the provisions of law, the Articles of Association, or these by-laws, require the vote of holders of a greater number of shares. If, however, such majority shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the shareholders, the shareholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to

No business shall be transacted at any such meeting until a majority of the directors elected shall have taken an oath of office as prescribed by law, and no director elected shall participate in the business transacted at any such meeting of the Board until he shall have taken said oath. If at any such meeting there is not a quorum of the directors present who shall have taken the oath of office, the members present may adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum is secured.
