On this 27th day of July, 1965, before me, a Notary Public in and for the County of San Diego, State of California, residing therein, duly commissioned and sworn, personally appeared Richard B. Mears, Robert P. Simpson, and James M. Hall, known to me to be the persons whose names are subscribed to the foregoing Articles of Incorporation of MEARS HOTEL COMPANY, and acknowledged to me that they executed the same.

1. That they are the president and the assistant secretary, respectively, of MEARS HOTEL COMPANY, a California corporation.

2. That by unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors without a meeting, as authorized by the By-Laws, the following resolution was adopted:

“RESOLVED: that the Fifth Article of the Articles of Incorporation of this corporation be amended to read as follows:

FIFTH: The total number of shares of stock which the corporation shall have authority to issue is twenty-three thousand five hundred (23,500) divided into two classes as follows: (a) two thousand five hundred (2,500) shares of Common Stock, no par value, being sometimes referred to herein as “Common Stock”, and (b) twenty-one thousand (21,000) shares of Cumulative Non-Voting Preferred Stock, par value $100.00 per share, being sometimes referred to herein as “Preferred Stock.” The aggregate par value of all shares having a par value is $2,100,000.00.

The preferences, qualifications, limitations, restrictions and the special or relative rights in respect of the stock of each class are as follows:

The holders of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors of the corporation, preferential dividends, payable in cash, out of funds legally available therefor, at the rate of $7.50 per share per annum, and no more, except that the dividend payable for the period ending August 15, 1971 shall be $2.1875 per share. Such dividends shall be payable quarterly on the fifteenth day of February, May, August and November in each year to stockholders of record on the respective dates, (not exceeding fifty (50) days preceding each dividend date) fixed for the purpose by the Board of Directors in advance of payment of each particular dividend.

All dividends payable on the Preferred Stock which are not paid with respect to any dividend period shall be cumulative and the aggregate thereof shall be referred to herein as “accrued dividends.”

So long as any Preferred Stock remains outstanding, in no event shall any dividends whatsoever, whether in cash, stock or otherwise, be paid or declared, or any distribution be made on any class of junior stock (the term “junior stock” to mean stock ranking junior to Preferred Stock as to dividends or distribution of assets upon liquidation), nor shall any junior stock be purchased, retained, or otherwise acquired for a valuable consideration by the corporation (excluding from such restriction dividends paid in junior stock and junior stock purchased, retained or otherwise acquired in exchange for, or from the proceeds from the issued of, other junior stock), unless (a) full dividends on all Preferred Stock for all past dividend periods and for the then current dividend period have been paid or have been declared and a sum sufficient for the payment therefor has been set apart; and (b) no default shall exist with respect to any obligation of the corporation to retire Preferred Stock.

Each holder of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote per share on all matters presented to the stockholders for each share of such stock standing in his name on the books of the corporation. Each holder of shares of Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to vote on matters presented to the stockholders, unless otherwise provided by law.

In the event of a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of a corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the corporation, before any payment shall be made on the Common Stock, the sum of 100% of the par value per share plus accrued dividends to the date fixed for distribution. After payment in full of the preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of the Preferred Stock, the holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled, to the exclusion of the holders of the Preferred Stock, to share in any remaining assets of the corporation.

For purposes of the next preceding paragraph the sale, conveyance, exchange or transfer of all of or substantially all of the property and assets of the corporation and the merger or consolidation of the corporation into or with another corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for the purposes thereof.

The corporation may at any time redeem the Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at its option by resolution of its Board of Directors, at any time or from time to time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the par value thereof plus accrued dividends to the date fixed for redemption. At least forty-five days’ previous written notice of any such redemption of Preferred Stock shall be mailed, addressed to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses as the same shall appear on the books of the corporation. In case of the redemption of less than all of the outstanding shares of such Preferred Stock, the shares to be redeemed shall be selected prorata.

If notice of redemption shall have been given as provided above, and if, on or before the redemption date all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been deposited with a responsible bank or trust company in the City of San Diego, State of California in trust for the prorata benefit of the holders of shares so called for redemption, then, notwithstanding that any certificate for shares of such Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the shares represented thereby shall no longer be deemed outstanding, the right to receive dividends thereon shall cease to accrue from and after the date of redemption and all rights with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall forthwith on such redemption date cease and terminate, except the right of the holders thereof to receive the redemption price of such shares so to be redeemed (but without interest thereon).

Any funds so set apart or deposited by the corporation which, at the end of two years after the redemption date, remain unclaimed by the holders of the Preferred Stock called for redemption, shall be released and returned to the corporation upon demand, and shall thereafter be available for general corporate purposes and the depositary, if any, shall thereupon be relieved of all responsibilities therefor to such holders. Any interest accrued on funds so deposited shall be paid to the corporation from time to time. The Preferred Stock which is redeemed as provided in this section shall not be reissued but, as soon as practicable, shall be cancelled and retired in the manner provided by law.

So long as any Preferred Stock is outstanding, the corporation shall not, without the consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or by vote at a meeting called for the purpose:

(a) Amend, alter or repeal any of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation or the By-Laws so as to affect adversely the rights, powers or preferences of the holders of the Preferred Stock; or

(b) Create, authorize or issue any additional class of stock ranking prior to or on a parity with the Preferred Stock, in respect of dividends or distribution of assets on liquidation; or increase the authorized amount of the Preferred Stock or any additional class of stock ranking prior to or on a parity with the Preferred Stock in respect of dividends or distribution of assets on liquidation; or create or authorize any obligation or security convertible into shares of any class of stock ranking prior to or on a parity with the Preferred Stock in respect of dividends or distribution of assets on liquidation.

No holder of Preferred Stock or of Common Stock, or of any other class of stock of the corporation, now or hereafter authorized, shall have any rights as such holder (other than such rights, if any, as the Board of Directors in its discretion may determine), to purchase, subscribe for, or otherwise acquire from the corporation any stock of the corporation of any class, whether now or hereafter authorized, or any securities convertible into stock of the corporation, or any warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase such stock. The corporation shall have the right from time to time, without first offering the same to the holders of stock of any class then outstanding, to issue and sell shares of its stock, or any optional rights (evidenced by warrants or otherwise) to subscribe to or purchase stock, to such persons, for such consideration, and on such terms and conditions, as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine.

Upon the amendment of this article to read as hereinabove set forth, each outstanding share of stock is converted into or reconstituted as one Common share of stock without par value.”

3. That the shareholders have adopted said amendment by written consent. That the wording of the amended article, as set forth in the shareholders’ written consent, is the same as that set forth in the directors’ resolution in Paragraph 2 above.

4. That the number of shares represented by written consent is 50. That the total number of shares entitled to vote on or consent to the amendment is 50.
