SECTION 5 – Corporate Governance and Management

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On August 31, 2008, the Board of Directors of Amazon Goldsands Ltd. (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s bylaws (the “Bylaws”) in their entirety in order to conform to Section 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes regarding majority shareholder written consent in lieu of a meeting and to permit the Company to issue uncertificated shares.  Previously, the Bylaws required that any written consent of shareholders be unanimous and that all shares of capital stock be represented by physical certificates.  The Bylaws were amended and restated in their entirety in order for the Company to be able to utilize majority written consent of shareholders and to become eligible to participate in a Direct Registration Program as required by NASDAQ Rule 430(a).  The amended and restated Bylaws are filed as Exhibit 3.1 and are incorporated herein by reference.

Amended and Restated

Bylaws

of

Amazon Goldsands Ltd.,

a Nevada corporation

Adopted August 31, 2008

ARTICLE I

OFFICES

1.            Registered Office.

The registered office of the Corporation shall be the registered office named in the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation.  The Corporation may change its registered office from time to time as the Board of Directors may designate or in the manner as provided by the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada.

2.            Other Offices.

The Corporation may also have offices at such other places both within and without the State of Nevada as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine or the business of the Corporation may require.

ARTICLE II

SHAREHOLDERS

1.             Annual Meeting.

The annual meeting of the stockholders shall be held on such date as the Board of Directors shall determine for the purpose of electing Directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting.  If the election of Directors is not held on the day designated by the Board of Directors for any annual meeting of the stockholders, or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of the stockholders as soon thereafter as convenient.

2.             Special Meetings.

Special meetings of the stockholders may be called for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by statute, at any time by the Board of Directors, Chairman of the Board or the President, or otherwise as provided by the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada.  In no event, however, shall a special meeting of the stockholders be held on any matter that is the subject of pending litigation to which the Corporation is a party.  Any business to be transacted at a special meeting of stockholders must be confined to the purpose stated in the notice of the stockholders’ meeting and to such additional matter as the chairman of the meeting may rule to be relevant to such purpose.

3.             Place of Meetings.

Annual and special meetings of the stockholders shall be held at the general office of the Corporation, unless otherwise specified in the notice calling any such meeting, or in the event of a waiver of notice of such meeting, in such waiver of notice.

4.             Notice of Meeting; Adjourned Meeting; Waiver of Notice.

(a)           Written notice 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 delivered to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting not less than ten (10) days nor more than fifty (50) days before the date of the meeting.  Notice may be delivered either personally or by first class, certified or registered mail or by facsimile transmission, charges prepaid, by an officer of the Corporation at the direction of the person or persons calling the meeting.  If mailed, notice shall be deemed to be delivered when mailed to the stockholders at his or her address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the Corporation.  If the notice is sent by facsimile transmission, it shall be deemed to have been given upon transmission, if transmission occurs on a business day before 5:00 p.m. at the place of receipt, and upon the business day following transmission, if transmission occurs after 5:00 p.m.  Additionally, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom notice is given.

(b)           Notice need not be given of an adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, provided, that such adjournment is for less than thirty (30) days and further provided, that a new record date is not fixed for the adjourned meeting, in either of which events, written notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting.  At any adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.  A written waiver of notice, whether given before or after the meeting to which it relates, shall be equivalent to the giving of notice of such meeting to the stockholder or stockholders signing such waiver.  Attendance of a stockholder at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the stockholder attends for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

5.             Fixing Date for Determination of Shareholders Record.

(a)           In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or to exercise any rights in respect of any other change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days prior to the date of such meeting or such action, as the case may be.

2

(b)           If the Board has not fixed a record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of stockholders, the record date shall be at 4:00 p.m. on the day before the day on which notice is given, or if notice is waived, at the commencement of the meeting.  If the Board has not fixed a record date for determining the stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the record date shall be the time of the day on which the first written consent is served on the Corporation in the manner provided by the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada.  If the Board has not fixed a record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose, the record date shall be at the close of business on the day before the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

(c)           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 if such adjournment or adjournments do not exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

6.             Record of Stockholders.

The Secretary or other officer having charge of the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall make, or cause to be made, a complete record of the stockholders entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each stockholder.  Such record shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to inspection by the stockholders during the entire time of the meeting for the purposes thereof.  Failure to comply with the requirements of this Section 6, however, shall not affect the validity of any action taken at any such meeting.

7.             Quorum and Manner of Acting.

At any meeting of the stockholders, the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding stock entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum.  All shares represented and entitled to vote on any single subject matter which may be brought before the meeting shall be counted for quorum purposes.  Only those shares entitled to vote on a particular subject matter shall be counted for the purpose of voting on that subject matter.  Business may be conducted once a quorum is present and may continue to be conducted until adjournment sine die, notwithstanding the withdrawal or temporary absence of stockholders leaving less than a quorum.  Except as otherwise provided in the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock then represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter under consideration shall be the act of the stockholders; provided, however, that if the shares of stock then represented are less than the number required to constitute a quorum, the affirmative vote must be such as would constitute a majority if a quorum were present, except that the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock then present is sufficient in all cases to adjourn a meeting.

3

8.            Voting of Shares of Stock; Proxies.

(a)           Each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock standing in his or her name on the books of the Corporation on the record date.  A stockholder may vote either in person or by proxy executed in writing or transmitted as permitted by law, including without limitation, electronically, via telegram, internet, interactive voice response system, or other means of electronic transmission executed or authorized by the stockholder or by his or her duly authorized attorney in fact, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after eleven (11) months from the date of its execution unless the proxy provides for a longer period.  Any proxy transmitted electronically shall set forth such information from which it can be determined that such electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder.

(b)           Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, shall neither be entitled to vote nor counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of any corporation to vote stock, including but not limited to its own stock, when held by it in a fiduciary capacity.  Shares of stock standing in the name of another corporation may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the bylaws of such other corporation may prescribe or, in the absence of such provision, as the board of directors of such other corporation may determine.  Shares of stock standing in the name of an administrator, executor, guardian, conservator, trustee, receiver, trustee in bankruptcy or assignee for the benefit of creditors may be voted by such person, either in person or by proxy.  Shares of stock held by an administrator, executor, guardian or conservator may be voted by such person, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into his or her name.  Shares of stock held by a trustee, other than a trustee in bankruptcy, may not be voted by such trustee without a transfer of such shares into his or her name.  Shares of stock held by or under the control of a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy may be voted by such receiver or trustee, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer thereof into his or her name if authority so to do is contained in an appropriate order of the court by which such receiver or trustee was appointed.  A person whose stock is pledged shall be entitled to vote such stock unless the stock has been transferred into the name of the pledgee on the books of the Corporation, in which case only the pledgee or his or her proxy shall be entitled to vote such stock.

(c)           If shares of stock stand of record in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety, tenants by community property or otherwise, or if two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares of stock, unless the Corporation is given written notice in the manner required by the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada 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: (i) if only one votes, his or her act binds all; (ii) if more than one vote, the act of the majority so voting binds all; and (iii) if more than one vote, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction may vote the shares in question proportionally.  If any tenancy is held in unequal interests, the majority or even split, for the purpose of the preceding sentence, shall be a majority or even split in interest.

4

(d)           Unless demanded by a stockholder present in person or by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders and entitled to vote thereat, or unless so directed by the chairman of the meeting, the vote thereat on any question need not be by ballot.  If such demand or direction is made, a vote by ballot shall be taken, and each ballot shall be signed by the stockholder voting, or by his or her proxy, and shall state the number of shares voted.

9.             Organization.

At each meeting of the stockholders, the Chairman of the Board, or, if he or she is absent therefrom, the Chief Executive Officer, or, if he or she is absent therefrom, another officer of the Corporation chosen as chairman of such meeting by a majority in voting interest of the stockholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereat, or, if all the officers of the Corporation are absent therefrom, a stockholder of record so chosen, shall act as chairman of the meeting and preside thereat.  The Secretary, or, if he or she is absent from the meeting or is required pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9 to act as chairman of such meeting, the person (who shall be an Assistant Secretary, if any and if present) whom the chairman of the meeting shall appoint shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep the minutes thereof.

10.          Order of Business; Notice of Stockholder Proposals; Nomination of Director Candidates.

(a)           At any annual or special meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meetings (i) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting, (ii) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (iii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 10, who shall be entitled to vote at such meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 10.  The chairman of any meeting shall determine the manner of voting and conduct of business at the meeting.

(b)          Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws shall be eligible to serve as directors.  Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a meeting of stockholders (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or a committee thereof or (ii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 10 who shall be entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 10.

(c)          A stockholder must give timely, written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation to nominate directors at an annual meeting pursuant to Section 10 hereof or to propose business to be brought before an annual or special meeting pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 10(a) hereof.  To be timely in the case of an annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice must be received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than one hundred twenty (120) days before the date of the Corporation’s proxy statement release to shareholders in connection with the Corporation’s

5

previous year’s annual meeting of stockholders.  To be timely in the case of a special meeting or in the event that the date of the annual meeting is changed by more than thirty (30) days from such anniversary date, a stockholder’s notice must be received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation no later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the earlier of the day on which notice of the meeting date was mailed or public disclosure of the meeting date was made.  For purposes of this Section 10, public disclosure shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth (i) with respect to each matter, if any, that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting, (ii) with respect to each person, if any, whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director, all information relating to such person (including such person(s) written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director) that is required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (iii) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s records, of the stockholder proposing such business or nominating such persons (as the case may be), and the name and address of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal or nomination is made, (iv) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder of record and by the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal or nomination is made, and (v) any material interest or relationship that such stockholder of record and/or the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal or nomination is made may respectively have in such business or with such nominee.  At the request of the Board of Directors, any person nominated for election as a director shall furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation the information required to be set forth in a stockholder(s) notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted, and no person shall be nominated to serve as a director, at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 10.  The Chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine that business was not properly brought before the meeting, or that a nomination was not made, in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these Bylaws and, if he or she shall so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting, and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted and any defective nomination shall be disregarded.  A stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 10.

(e)This Section 10 shall not prevent the consideration and approval or disapproval at the annual meeting of reports of officers, directors and committees of the Board of Directors, but, in connection with such reports, no business shall be acted upon at such annual meeting unless stated, filed and received as herein provided.

6

11.          Election of Directors.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at each election of Directors, shall have the right to vote, in person or by proxy, the number of shares of stock owned by such stockholder.  Stockholders shall not have cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of Directors.  The candidates receiving the greatest number of votes, up to the number of Directors to be elected, shall be the Directors.

12.          Stockholder Approval or Ratification.

The Board of Directors may submit any contract or act for approval or ratification of the stockholders at a duly constituted meeting of the stockholders.  Except as otherwise required by law, if any contract or act so submitted is approved or ratified by a majority of the votes cast thereon at such meeting, the same shall be valid and as binding upon the Corporation and all of its stockholders as it would be if it were the act of the stockholders.

13.          Action by Stockholders Without a Meeting.

Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the number of stockholders as are required to pass such action and entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof.

14.          Irregularities.

All informalities and irregularities at any meeting of the stockholders with respect to calls, notices of meeting, the manner of voting, the form of proxies and credentials, and the method of ascertaining those present shall be deemed waived if no objection is made at the meeting.

8

7.             Quorum and Manner of Acting.

A majority of the whole Board of Directors shall be present in person at any meeting of the Board of Directors in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting, and except as otherwise specified in these Bylaws, and except also as otherwise expressly provided by the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada, the vote of a majority of the Directors present at any such meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors.  In the absence of a quorum from any such meeting, a majority of the Directors present thereat may adjourn such meeting from time to time to another time or place, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present thereat.  The Directors shall act only as a Board and the individual Directors shall have no power as such.

10.           Resignations.

Any Director may resign at any time by giving written notice of his or her resignation to the Corporation.  Any such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, or, if the time when it shall become effective is not specified therein, it shall take effect immediately upon its receipt by the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Secretary; and, unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

meeting of the Executive Committee, however, need not be given to any member of the Committee if waived by him or her in writing or by telegraph, cable, wireless or other form of recorded communication either before or after the meeting, or if he or she is present at such meetings, except when he or she attends for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.  Subject to the provisions of this Article V, the Committee, by resolution adopted by a majority of the whole Committee, shall fix its own rules of procedure and it shall keep a record of its proceedings and report them to the board at the next regular meeting thereof after such proceedings have been taken.  All such proceedings shall be subject to revision or alteration by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that third parties shall not be prejudiced by any such revision or alteration.

9.             Dissolution of Committees; Removal of Committee Members.

ARTICLE VII

STOCK

1.             Certificates.

The shares of the capital stock of the Corporation may be certificated or uncertificated, as provided under the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada.  A certificate or certificates for shares of the capital stock of the Corporation may be issued to each shareholder when any of these shares are fully paid.  Any such certificates shall be signed in the name of the Corporation by the president or vice president and by the secretary or any assistant secretary, certifying the number of shares and the class or series of shares owned by the shareholder.  Any or all of the signatures on any such certificate may be facsimile if the certificate is countersigned by a transfer agent or any assistant transfer agent, or registered by a registrar other than the Corporation itself or an employee of the Corporation.  In case any officer, transfer agent, or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed on a certificate shall have ceased to be that officer before that certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if that person were an officer at the date of issue.”

2.             Transfers of Stock.

Stock of the Corporation shall be transferable in the manner prescribed by applicable law and in these bylaws.  Transfers of stock shall be made on the books of the Corporation, and in the case of certificated shares of stock, only by the person named in the certificate or by such person’s attorney lawfully constituted in writing and upon the surrender of the certificate therefor, properly endorsed for transfer and payment of all necessary transfer taxes; or, in the case of uncertificated shares of stock, upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered holder of the shares or by such person’s attorney lawfully constituted in writing, and upon payment of all necessary transfer taxes and compliance with appropriate procedures for transferring shares in uncertificated form; provided, however, that such surrender and endorsement, compliance or payment of taxes shall not be required in any case in which the officers of the Corporation shall determine to waive such requirement.  With respect to certificated shares of stock, every certificate exchanged, returned or surrendered to the Corporation shall be marked “Cancelled,” with the date of cancellation, by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Corporation or the transfer agent thereof.  No transfer of stock shall be valid as against the Corporation for any purpose until it shall have been entered in the stock records of the Corporation by an entry showing from and to whom transferred.

3.             Lost or Destroyed Certificates.

Any person claiming a certificate of stock to be lost or destroyed shall make an affidavit or affirmation of that fact and advertise the same in such manner as the Board of Directors may require, and the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, require the owner of the lost or destroyed certificate or his or her legal representative to give the Corporation a bond, in such sum as it may

18

direct, not exceeding double the value of the stock, to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss of any such certificate.  A new certificate of the same tenor and for the same number of shares as the one alleged to be lost or destroyed, or uncertificated shares in place of any such certificate, may be issued without requiring any bond when, in the judgment of the Directors, it is proper to do so.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

1.             General.

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she 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 his or her conduct was unlawful.  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she 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 reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

19

2.             Derivative Actions.

3.             Indemnification in Certain Cases.

To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article X, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith.

4.              Procedure.

Any indemnification under Sections 1 and 2 of this Article X (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such Sections 1 and 2.  Such determination shall be made (a) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (b) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (c) by the stockholders.

5.             Advances for Expenses.

Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation, to the extent permitted by law, in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article X.

20

6.             Rights Not Exclusive.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to, the other Sections of this Article X shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any law, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

7.             Insurance.

The Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of this Article X.

8.            Definition of Corporation.

For the purposes of this Article X, references to “the Corporation” include all constituent corporations absorbed in consolidation or merger as well as the resulting or surviving corporation so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such a constituent corporation or is or was serving at the request of such constituent as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article X with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he or she would if he or she had served the resulting or surviving corporation in the same capacity.

9.            Other Definitions.

For purposes of this Article X, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article X.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to this Article X shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person. No amendment to or repeal of this Article X shall apply to or have any effect on, the rights of any director, officer, employee or agent under this Article X which rights come into existence by virtue of acts or omissions of such director, officer, employee or agent occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

11.           Contract.

The foregoing provisions of this Article shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director and officer who serves in such capacity at any time while this Bylaw is in effect, and any repeal or modification thereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts then or theretofore existing of any Proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state of facts.  The foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any director or officer may be entitled apart from the provisions of this Article.

ARTICLE XI
