In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1999. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Computer Associates International, Inc.s (the Registrant or the Company) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998. Cash Dividends: In December 1998, the Companys Board of Directors declared its regular, semi-annual cash dividend of $.04 per share. The dividend was paid on January 7, 1999 to stockholders of record on December 28, 1998. Statements of Cash Flows: For the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,interest payments were $98 million and $99 million, respectively, and income taxes paid were $171 million and $285 million, respectively.

SFAS No. 130 establishes new rules for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components; however, the adoption has no impact on the Companys net income or shareholders equity. Comprehensive Income includes foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses on the Companys available for sale securities which prior to adoption were reported separately in shareholders equity. The components of comprehensive income, net of related tax, for the three month and nine month periods ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:

Software Revenue Recognition: In October 1997, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee (AcSEC) issued Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2 Software Revenue Recognition, as amended in 1998 by SOP 98-4 and further amended more recently by SOP 98-9. These SOPs provide guidance on applying generally accepted accounting principles in recognizing revenue on software transactions. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of the SOPs which may have a material impact on the Companys revenue recognition policies effective for the quarter ending June 30, 1999 and beyond. Such changes in the Companys operational and revenue recognition practices including, but not limited to changes in the period over which revenue is recognized up to and including recognition of revenue over the contract term may have a material adverse effect on the Companys reported revenue, increase administrative costs, or otherwise adversely modify existing operations. NOTE B - THE 1995 KEY EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN Under the 1995 Key Employee Stock Ownership Plan (1995 Plan), if the closing price of the Companys common stock on the New York Stock Exchange exceeded $53.33 for 60 trading days within any twelve month period, Additional Grants (as defined in the 1995 Plan) of 13.5 million shares, plus 6.75 million shares from an Initial Grant (as defined in the 1995 Plan), or a total of 20.25 million shares, to three key executives would vest and no longer be subject to forfeiture. However, the 20.25 million shares would continue to be subject to significant limitations on transfer for up to seven years following vesting. On May 21, 1998, the closing price of the Companys common stock exceeded $53.33 for the sixtieth trading day within the twelve month period ending May 21, 1998. Subsequent to May 21, 1998, the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors reviewed the performance objectives of the 1995 Plan and certified the vesting of an aggregate of 20.25 million shares to the three key executives. As a result, in the first quarter of fiscal year 1999, the Company recorded a one time charge of $1,071 million ($675 million after tax). The executives elected to have a portion of the vested shares withheld for tax purposes. 7 Item 2: MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Statements in this Form 10-Q concerning the companys future prospects are forward looking statements under the federal securities laws. There can be no assurances that future results will be achieved and actual results could differ materially from forecasts and estimates. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are discussed below in the section Results of Operations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Revenue: Total revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 1998 increased 10%, or $122 million, over the prior years comparable quarter. The increase was attributable to growth in the client/server business which accounted for approximately 46% of the Companys overall revenue for the third quarter. The client/server growth was led by Unicenter TNG (The Next Generation), a family of integrated business solutions for monitoring and administering systems management across multi platform environments, which accounted for approximately 24% of total revenue for the third quarter. Professional services grew by 97% or $38 million over the prior year. The Company intends to increase the level of professional services provided to clients through internal growth as well as acquisitions of services companies. Total North American revenue for the third quarter grew 5% over the prior years third quarter. This resulted from lower mainframe software sales offset by continued growth in client/server product sales. In the current quarter, North American sales represented 64% of revenue compared to 67% of revenue one year ago. The impact of foreign currencies versus the US dollar did not have a material effect on revenue in the third quarter. Maintenance revenues remained essentially unchanged from last years comparable quarter. Additional maintenance revenue from prior year license arrangements was offset by the ongoing trend of site consolidations and expanding client/server revenues, which yield lower maintenance. Price changes did not have a material impact in this quarter or the prior years third quarter. On a year to date basis, total revenue increased 11% or $372 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to growth in the client/server business which accounted for 47% of the Companys overall revenue year to date. Year to date client/server and professional services revenue increased 30% and 77%, or $399 and $85 million, respectively, over the prior year. Unicenter TNG revenue accounted for over 25% of total revenue year to date. Total North American revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 grew 10% over the prior years comparable period. On a year to date basis, North American sales represented 65% of revenue for fiscal year 1999 and 66% of revenue for fiscal year 1998. On a year to date basis, international revenue increased by nearly $160 million, or 15%, over the prior year. In addition, the effect of foreign exchange rates on the US dollar versus most currencies decreased revenue by $33 million for the current year. Maintenance revenues remained essentially unchanged year to date. Price changes did not have a material impact year to date in fiscal year 1999 or in the comparable period in fiscal year 1998. Costs and Expenses: Selling, marketing and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue for the third quarter increased to 37% from 35% the prior year. The increase was largely attributable to an overall increase in personnel expense. The Company is continuing its ongoing effort to expand its Global Professional Services division and worldwide sales organization. Marketing costs related to new product introductions including the Enterprise Edition and Workgroup Solutions also contributed to the increase. The Enterprise Edition products 8 Item 2: (Continued) MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS are the Companys state of the art mid market solutions addressing security, network management, asset management, application development, information management, and E commerce. The Workgroup Editions provide the same solutions as the Enterprise Editions with a focus on smaller computing environments. Net research and development expenditures increased $15 million, or 16%, for the third quarter compared to last years third quarter. There was continued emphasis on adapting and enhancing products for the client/server environment, in particular Unicenter TNG, Jasmine, Opal, the Enterprise and Workgroup Solutions, as well as broadening of the Companys Internet/Intranet product offerings. Commissions and royalties as a percentage of revenue were 5% for the third quarter for both fiscal year 1999 and fiscal year 1998. Depreciation and amortization expense in the third quarter decreased $5 million from the comparable quarter in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to scheduled reductions in the amortization associated with The ASK Group, Inc., Legent Corporation, and Cheyenne Software, Inc. acquisitions, partially offset by smaller acquisitions in the current year. Net interest expense increased $4 million, or 14%, for the third quarter compared to last years third quarter. The additional interest expense related to the April 1998 issuance of $1.75 billion of unsecured senior notes, reduced by the repayment of $1.2 billion under the Companys credit facilities, was offset by the interest earned on the corresponding increase in cash and marketable securities. On a year to date basis, selling, marketing and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 40% from 38% the prior year. The increase was largely attributable to an overall increase in personnel expense as well as major promotional events including: CA-World, the Companys major annual user conference; the bi annual sales kickoff, an assembly of the Companys sales force to inaugurate the new years sales plan; and increased marketing costs related to new product introductions including the Enterprise Edition and Workgroup Solutions. Net research and development expenditures increased $38 million, or 14%, year to date. Continued emphasis on adapting and enhancing products for the client/server environment as well as broadening of the Companys Internet/Intranet product offerings were largely responsible for the increase. Commissions and royalties as a percentage of revenue were 5% year to date for both fiscal year 1999 and fiscal year 1998. On a year to date basis, depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $22 million from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to scheduled reductions in the amortization associated with The ASK Group, Inc., Legent Corporation, and Cheyenne Software, Inc. acquisitions. Net interest expense remained unchanged year to date from last years comparable period. Operating Margins: The pretax income of $567 million for the third quarter is an increase of 4%, or $23 million, over the third quarter in the prior year. The year to date net income, excluding the one time charge of $1,071 million associated with the vesting of 20.25 million shares under the 1995 Key Employee Stock Ownership Plan, was $842 million, compared to net income of $767 million in the prior year, an increase of $75 million, or 10%. The Companys consolidated effective tax rate for the December 1998 quarter and the prior years December quarter was 37.5%. On a year to date basis, the consolidated effective tax rate, including the current year charge, was 39.4% compared with 37.5% for the prior year. The higher current year effective tax rate is attributable to the charge in the current year. Without the charge, the current years effective rate would have been 37.5%. 9 Item 2: (Continued) MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Operations: In fiscal years 1997 and 1996, the Company incurred charges for the write-off Of purchased research and development technology related to the Cheyenne and Legent acquisitions. In both valuations, the Income Approach was utilized. This approach focuses on the income producing capability of the asset and the present value of the net benefit to be received over the life of the property. The revenues generated are offset by the corresponding expenses including all operating, research and development, and income tax expenses. The Cheyenne products consist of network data storage, security and communications software across multiple standalone, as well as heterogeneous computer environments and Legent is comprised of many systems management and database products. To date, the vast majority of the projects in the aggregate have not varied materially from original projections. Consistent with original projections, the Company expects a seven year asset life, however,more rapid technological change, market acceptance of competing technologies, and other internal and external factors may negatively affect the total net benefit obtained from the technology acquired. Risks and Uncertainties: The Companys products are designed to improve the productivity and efficiency of its clients information processing resources. Accordingly, in a recessionary environment, the Companys products are often a reasonable economic alternative to customers faced with the prospect of incurring expenditures to increase their existing information processing resources. However, a general or regional slowdown in world economies could adversely affect the Companys operations. The effects of the Asian economic turmoil on our multinational clients and its potentially adverse impact on our near term business is a concern. This, coupled with deferred software purchasing decisions as clients deal with their year 2000 projects, as well as mainframe hardware transition issues, may impact revenue and earnings growth. The Company has traditionally reported lower profit margins in the first two quarters of each fiscal year than those experienced in the third and fourth quarters. As part of the annual budget process, management establishes higher discretionary expense levels in relation to projected revenue for the first half of the year. Historically, the Companys combined third and fourth quarter revenues have been greater than the first half of the year, as these two quarters coincide with clients calendar year budget periods and culmination of the Companys annual sales plan. These historically higher second half revenues have resulted in significantly higher profit margins since total expenses have not increased in proportion to revenue. However, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance. The Companys future operating results may be affected by a number of other factors, including, but not limited to: the adequacy of the Companys internal administrative systems to efficiently process transactions and store and retrieve data subsequent to the year 2000; the significant percentage of the Companys quarterly sales recorded in the last few days of the quarter, making financial predictions especially difficult and raising a substantial risk of variance in actual results; the Companys increasing reliance on a single family of products for a material portion of its sales; market acceptance of competing technologies; the availability and cost of new solutions; delays in delivery of new products or features; uncertainty of customer acceptance; the ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel; the ability to incorporate changes to its business application products to conform to the new, common European currency known as the Euro; the Companys ability to successfully maintain or 10 Item 2: (Continued) MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS increase market share in its core business while expanding into other and new markets such as professional services; the strength of its distribution channels; the ability either internally or through third party service providers to support client implementation of the Companys products; the Companys ability to manage fixed and variable expense growth relative to revenue growth; the outcome of litigation to which the Company is a party; the Companys ability to effectively integrate acquired products and operations; the assimilation of business or technology acquisitions; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; the volatility of the international marketplace, including the recent Asian and Latin American turmoil; and other risks described in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Within Europe, the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) introduced a new currency, the Euro, on January 1, 1999, initially available for currency trading and noncash (banking) transactions. The existing local currencies will remain legal tender through January 1, 2002. The Company has conducted risk assessments and began implementing corrective actions to ensure preparedness for the introduction of the Euro. Because of the staggered introduction of the Euro regarding noncash and cash transactions, the Company has developed a plan to address its accounting and business systems first. Compliance will be achieved primarily through upgrading administrative systems. The Company does not expect to experience significant operational disruptions or incur costs which could materially affect the Companys liquidity or capital resources. Year 2000: The Company may experience future uncertainties regarding year 2000 compliance of its products. The Company has designed and tested the vast majority of its recent product offerings to be year 2000 compliant. However, there is currently a small minority of the product offerings that have not been updated to meet year 2000 compliance specifications. The Company continues to update and test its product offerings for year 2000 compliance. Such costs are included in net research and development expenses. The Company has publicly identified any products that will not be updated to be year 2000 compliant and has been encouraging clients using these products to migrate to compliant versions. It is possible that the Company may experience increased expense levels addressing migration issues for such customers. There can be no assurance that all of the Companys products will be year 2000 compliant prior to January 1, 2000 (except those the Company previously identified will not be year 2000 compliant) nor can there be assurances that the Companys currently compliant products do not contain undetected problems associated with year 2000 compliance. Such problems may result in litigation and/or increased expenses negatively affecting future operating results. The Company recognizes the significance of the year 2000 problem as it relates to our internal systems and understands that the impact extends beyond traditional hardware and software to automated facility systems and third parties. The Company has created and implemented an overall plan to make its internal financial and administrative systems year 2000 ready by June 1999. With regard to facility related systems (phone, voicemail, security systems, etc.), the Company internally conducted assessment audits and has sent questionnaires to vendors and service providers to confirm year 2000 readiness. As part of its contingency planning efforts, the Company is identifying alternative strategies, when necessary, if significant exposures are identified. The Company expects substantial completion of year 2000 readiness preparations by June 1999 and to continue comprehensive testing through calendar 1999. The total cost of preparing internal systems to be year 2000 compliant is not expected to be material to the Companys operations, liquidity, or capital resources. Total expenditures, excluding personnel costs of existing staff, related to internal systems year 2000 readiness is expected to be less than $20 million. Such expenses commenced in 1996 and are 11 Item 2: (Continued) MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS projected to continue through calendar 1999. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will not experience significant unanticipated negative performance and/or flaws in the technology used in its internal systems. The Company is in the process of completing its contingency plan for potential hardware and software failures. Liquidity and capital resources: During the third quarter, the Companys cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities decreased by approximately $136 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to the purchase of nearly 11 million shares of the Companys stock under its open market repurchase programs, various professional service and product acquisitions, and progress payments for the expansion and renovation projects at the Islandia, NY World Headquarters and other facilities. The decrease was partially offset by cash provided from operations of $467 million, a 46% increase from the quarter ended September 1998. On a year to date basis, cash provided by operations totaled $698 million, After reflecting a $318 million withholding tax payment made in lieu of shares issued to certain executives under the 1995 Key Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Year to date cash generated from operations, excluding this withholding tax payment, totaled $1,016 million, an increase of 58% from the prior year. This increase is primarily attributable to accelerated cash collections of trade accounts receivable as well as lower taxes paid associated with the tax benefit received for the one time charge recorded in the first quarter of fiscal year 1999 related to the 1995 Key Employee Stock Ownership Plan. On December 31, 1998, total debt outstanding consisted primarily of $1.75 billion of registered unsecured Senior Notes issued April 24, 1998 and $320 million of unsecured Senior Notes issued April 1, 1996. At December 31, 1998, the Company had no drawings outstanding under its $2.6 billion credit facility. At December 31, 1998, the cumulative number of shares purchased under the Companys various open market Common Stock repurchase programs was approximately 146.6 million shares. The remaining number of shares available for repurchase under these programs at December 31, 1998 was approximately 53.4 million. This amount includes the authorization to repurchase an additional 36.875 million shares approved by the Companys Board of Directors in October 1998. The Company is proceeding with construction of its European Headquarters in the United Kingdom and its various expansion and renovation projects at its World Headquarters in Islandia, New York. These projects will be completed over the next 10 months and will result in total cashflow obligations of $225 million. In addition, various capital resource requirements as of December 31, 1998 consisted of lease obligations for office space, computer equipment, mortgage and loan obligations and amounts due as a result of product and company acquisitions. The Company anticipates that existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, the availability of borrowings under committed and uncommitted credit lines, as well as cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet ongoing cash requirements. 12 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1: Legal Proceedings The Company and certain of its officers are defendants in a number of shareholder class action lawsuits alleging that a class consisting of all persons who purchased the Companys stock during the period January 20, 1998 until July 22, 1998 were harmed by misleading statements, representations, and omissions regarding the Companys future financial performance. These cases have been consolidated into a single action (the Shareholder Action) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (NY Federal Court). In addition, three derivative actions alleging similar facts were brought in the NY Federal Court. An additional derivative action, alleging that the Company issued 14.25 million more shares than were authorized under the 1995 Key Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the 1995 Plan), was also filed in the NY Federal Court. In all but one of these derivative actions, all of the Companys directors were named as defendants. All of these derivative actions have been consolidated into a single action (the Derivative Action) in the NY Federal Court. The plaintiffs are expected to file an amended complaint in both the Shareholder Action and the Derivative Action. Lastly, a derivative action was filed in the Chancery Court in Delaware (the Delaware Action) alleging that 9.5 million more shares were issued than were authorized under the 1995 Plan. The Company and its directors have filed a motion to dismiss the Delaware Action and the plaintiff has moved for summary judgment. Although the ultimate outcome and liability, if any, cannot be determined, management, after consultation and review with counsel, believes that the facts in each of the actions do not support the plaintiffs claims and that the Company and its officers and directors have meritorious defenses. 13 Item 6: Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K (a) Exhibits. 3.(i)(a) Restated Certificate of Incorporation dated February 3, 1999. 3.(ii)(a) Registrants By Laws, as amended, effective January 19, 1999.

Section 2. Dividends and Distributions. (A) Subject to the rights of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock (or any other stock) ranking prior and superior to the Series One Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares 2 of Series One Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, dividends in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent), equal to 1,000 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends declared on the Common Stock, par value $.10 per share (the Common Stock), and 1,000 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non cash dividends or other distributions declared on the Common stock, other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise). Any such dividend on the Preferred Stock shall be payable on the same date as any dividend payable with respect to the Common Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. (B) The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series One Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (A) of this Section immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock). (C) The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be the same date as the record date for the determination of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution thereon and shall be not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.

(B) Except as otherwise provided herein, in any other Certificate of Designation creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock, or by law, the holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Corporation having general voting rights shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation. (C) Except as set forth herein, or as otherwise provided by law, holders of Series One Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any corporate action.

(B) The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under Paragraph (A) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner. Section 5. Reacquired Shares. Any shares of Series One Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and cancelled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein, in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, or in any other Certificate of Designation creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law. Section 6. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. (A) Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any assets of the Corporation to the holders of Common Stock, the amount of $1,000.00 per share for each share of Series One Preferred Stock then held by them.

(B) If the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to the holders of shares of Series One Preferred Stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation are insufficient to pay the full preferential amount set forth in the first sentence of paragraph (A) above, then the entire assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to the holders of Series One Preferred Stock shall be distributed among such holders in proportion to the shares of Series One Preferred Stock then held by them. (C) The foregoing rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up provided to the holders of Series One Preferred Stock shall be subject to the rights of the holders of any other series of Preferred Stock (or any other stock) ranking prior and superior to the Series One Preferred Stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Section 7. Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or other property, then in any such case each share of Series One Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed into an amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchange.

The board of directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten (10) days after the date on which such a request is received, adopt a resolution fixing the record date. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors within ten (10) days of the date on which such a request is received, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the actin taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the corporation as provided in Section 228(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Section 6. Voting Lists.

Such list shall be subject to inspection by any stockholder at any time during usual business hours. Such list shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting. The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine such list or to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Section 7. Quorum. A majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders. If less than a majority of the outstanding shares are represented at a meeting, [the chairman of the meeting] may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called. The stockholders present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. At all meetings of stockholders for the election of directors, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect. Unless otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Section 8. Proxies. At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder may vote by proxy (i) executed in writing by the stockholder or by his duly authorized attorney in fact; or (ii) by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of a telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission to the person 4 who will be the holder of the proxy or an agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder; or (iii) as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 212 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Such proxy shall be filed with the Secretary of the corporation before or at the time of the meeting. No proxy shall be valid after three years from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Section 9. Voting of Shares. Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, each outstanding share entitled to vote shall be entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders, as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation. Shares standing in the name of another corporation may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the by-laws of such corporation may prescribe, or, in the absence of such provision, as the Board of Directors of such corporation may determine. Shares of its own capital 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 be 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, held by it in a fiduciary capacity. Section 10. Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. (a) Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders, or any other action which may be taken at a meeting of the stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing setting forth the action so taken shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock 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 shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. The Corporation shall give prompt notice of the taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent to stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the acion had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation in the manner provided in Section 228(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. (b) Inspectors of Election; Procedures for Counting Consents. Within three (3) business days after receipt of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation in the manner provided in Section 228(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law or the determination by the Board of Directors of the Corporation that 5 the Corporation should seek corporate action by written consent, as the case may be, the Secretary shall engage nationally recognized independent inspectors of elections for the purpose of performing a ministerial review of the validity of the consents and revocations. The cost of retaining inspectors of election shall he borne by the Corporation. No action by written consent without a meeting shall be effective until such date as the inspectors certify to the Corporation that the consents delivered to the Corporation in accordance with this section represent at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and votes. Consents and revocations shall be delivered to the inspectors upon receipt by the Corporation, the soliciting stockholders or their proxy solicitors or other designated agents. As soon as consents and revocations are received, the inspectors shall review the consents and revocations and shall maintain a count of the number of valid and unrevoked consents. The inspectors shall keep such count confidential and shall not reveal the count to the Corporation, the soliciting stockholder or their representatives or any other entity. As soon as practicable after the earlier if (i) sixty (60) days after the date of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation in the manner provided in Section 228(c) of the Delaware General Corporation law or (ii) a written request therefor by the Corporation or the soliciting stockholders (whichever is soliciting consents), notice of which request shall be given to the party opposing the solicitation of consents, if any, which request shall state that the Corporation or soliciting stockholders, as the case may be, have a good faith belief that the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents to authorize or take the action specified in the consents has been received in accordance with these Bylaws, the inspectors shall issue a preliminary report to the Corporation and the soliciting stockholders stating: (i) the number of valid consents: (ii) the number of valid revocations; (iii) the number of valid and unrevoked consents: (iv) the number of invalid consents; (v) the number of invalid revocations; (vi) whether, based on their preliminary count, the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents has been obtained to authorize or take the action specified in the consents. Unless the Corporation and the soliciting stockholders shall agree to a shorter or longer period, the Corporation and the soliciting stockholders shall have 48 hours to review the consents and revocations and to advise the inspectors and the opposing party in writing as to whether they intend to challenge the preliminary report of the inspectors. If no written notice of in intention to challenge the preliminary report is received within 48 hours after the inspectors issuance of the preliminary report, the inspectors shall issue to the Corporation and the soliciting stockholders their final report containing the information from the inspectors determination with respect to whether the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents was obtained to authorize and take the action specified in the consents. If the Corporation or the soliciting stockholders issue written notice of an intention to 6 challenge the inspectors preliminary report within 48 hours after the issuance of that report, a challenge session shall be scheduled by the inspectors as promptly as practicable. Following completion of the challenge session, the inspectors shall as promptly as practicable issue their final report to the soliciting stockholders and the Corporation, which report shall contain the information included in the preliminary report, plus all changes in the vote totals as a result of the challenge and a certification of whether the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents was obtained to authorize or take the action specified in the consents. A copy of the final report of the inspectors shall be included in the book in which the proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Section 11. Nominations of Directors.
