NOTARY PUBLIC FOR OREGON

My Commission Expires: December 13, 1979

The purpose for which the corporation is organized is to engage to any business, trade or activity which may lawfully be conducted by a corporation organized under the Oregon Business Corporation Act.

The Board of Directors’ right to authorize and make distributions to its shareholders is subject to the restrictions set forth in ORS 60.181 and such other applicable legal restrictions as are or may hereafter become effective; provided, however, that for purposes of the determination to be made by the Board of Directors pursuant to ORS 60.181(3), the Board of Directors need not consider the amount that would be needed, if the Corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.

Action required or permitted by the Oregon Business Corporation Act or these Articles of Incorporation to be taken at a shareholders’ meeting may be taken without a meeting if the action is taken by shareholders having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be

This Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other provisions for the indemnification of directors, officers, employees, or agents that may be included in any statute, bylaw, agreement, resolution of shareholders or directors of otherwise, both as to action in any official capacity and action in any other capacity while holding office, or while an employee or agent of the corporation.
