The annual meeting of the stockholders entitled to vote shall be held at ten o'clock in the forenoon (or at such other time as is determined by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice) on the second Tuesday in May, after the end of each fiscal year and if such day is a legal holiday, then on the next succeeding day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. Purposes for which an annual meeting is to be held, in addition to those prescribed by law, by the Articles of Organization and by the By-Laws, may be specified by the President, the Treasurer or the Board of Directors or, upon written application delivered to the Clerk not less than twenty (20) days before the date of the meeting, by one or more stockholders who are entitled to vote and who hold at least one-tenth part in interest of the capital stock entitled to vote at the meeting. If such annual meeting is not held on the date fixed, or by adjournment therefrom, a special meeting of the stockholders shall be held in place thereof, and any business transacted or elections held at such special meeting shall have the same force and effect as if transacted or held at the annual meeting. Any such special meeting shall be called as provided in Section 3 of this Article I. 3. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders entitled to vote may be called by the President, the Treasurer or the Directors, and shall be called by the Clerk, or in case of the death, absence, incapacity or refusal of the Clerk, by any other officer, upon written application of one or more stockholders who are entitled to vote and who hold at least one-tenth part in interest of the capital stock entitled to vote at the meetings. The call for the meeting shall state the day, hour, place and purposes of the meeting. 4. Notice of Meetings. Notice of all meetings of stockholders, stating the place, date and hour thereof, and the purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be given by the Clerk or other person calling the meeting. Notice must be given in writing and such writing shall be sufficient if given personally or by telegraph, telex or cable. Notice must be given at least 7 days before the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat and to each stockholder who, under the Articles of Organization or By-Laws, is entitled to such notice, such notice addressed to his usual place of business or residence as it appears upon the books of the Corporation. No notice of a meeting of the stockholders need be given to any stockholder if such stockholder, by a writing (including, without limitation, by telegraph, telex, telecopy or cable) filed with the records of the meeting (and whether executed before or after such meeting) waives such notice, or if such stockholder attends the meeting without protest prior thereto or at its commencement the lack of notice to him. Every stockholder who is present at a meeting (whether in person or by proxy) shall be deemed to have waived notice thereof; provided, however, that in the absence of his waiver in writing, a stockholder may expressly reserve his objection to the transaction of any business as to which requisite notice was not given to him. 5. Quorum of Stockholders. The holders of a majority interest of all stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote at a meeting shall constitute a quorum; except that, if two or more classes of stock are outstanding and entitled to vote as separate classes, then in the case of each such class, a quorum shall consist of the holders of a majority in interest of the stock of that class issued, outstanding and entitled to vote. 6. Adjournments. Any meeting of the stockholders may be adjourned to any other time and to any other place by the stockholders present or represented at the meeting, although less than a quorum, or by any officer entitled to preside or to act as clerk of such meeting if no stockholder is present. It shall not be necessary to notify any stockholder of any adjournment. Any business which could have been transacted at any meeting of the stockholders as originally called may be transacted at any adjournment thereof. 7. Votes and Proxies. At all meetings of the stockholders, each stockholder shall have one vote for each share of stock having voting power registered in such stockholder's name, and a proportionate vote for a fractional share, unless otherwise provided by the Articles of Organization or in the By-Laws. Scrip shall not carry any right to vote unless otherwise provided therein; but if scrip provides for the right to vote, such voting shall be on the same basis as fractional shares. Absent stockholders may vote by proxy. No proxy which is dated more than six months before the meeting named therein shall be accepted, and no proxy shall be valid after the final adjournment of such meeting. Proxies need not be sealed or attested. A proxy with respect to stock held in the name of two or more persons shall be valid if executed by one of them unless at or prior to exercise of the proxy the Corporation receives a specific written notice to the contrary from any one of them. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a stockholder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise. 8. Action at Meeting. When a quorum is present, the holders of a majority of the stock present or represented and voting on a matter (or if there are two or more classes of stock entitled to vote as separate classes, then in the case of each such class, the holders of a majority of the stock of that class present or represented and voting on a matter), except where a larger vote is required by law, the Articles of Organization or these By-Laws, shall decide any matter to be voted on by the stockholders. Any election by stockholders shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote at the election. No ballot shall be required for such election unless requested by a stockholder present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote in the election. The Corporation shall not directly or indirectly vote any share of its stock. 9. Action without Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting if all stockholders entitled to vote on the matter consent to the action in writing and the written consents are filed with the records of the meetings of stockholders. Such consents shall be treated for all purposes as a vote at a meeting. ARTICLE II - Officers and Directors 1. Elections. The Corporation shall have a Board of Directors consisting of such number (but not less than the minimum number required by law) as may be fixed by the stockholders, a President, a Treasurer and a Clerk. At each annual meeting, the stockholders shall fix the number of Directors to be elected, and shall elect the Board of Directors. At any meeting, the stockholders may increase or decrease the number of Directors within the limits above specified. The President, the Treasurer and the Clerk shall be elected annually by the Directors at their first meeting following the annual meeting of the stockholders. The Board of Directors may, from time to time, elect or appoint such other officers as it may determine, including a Chairman of the Board, one or more Vice-Presidents, one or more Assistant Treasurers, one or more Assistant Clerks, and a Secretary.

Any Director may at any time be removed with or without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in interest of the capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote; provided, that a Director of a class elected by a particular class of stockholders may be removed only by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in interest of the stock of such class. Any officer may at any time be removed with or without cause by vote of the Board of Directors. A Director or officer may be removed for cause only after a reasonable notice and opportunity to be heard before the body proposing to remove him. 3. Vacancies. Any vacancy in the office of Director of a given class may be filled by the stockholders at a meeting called for the purpose. Pending action by the stockholders, such vacancy may be filled by vote of the Board of Directors or by appointment by all of the Directors if less than a quorum shall remain in the office.

No notice of any meeting of the Board of Directors need be given to any Director if such Director, by a writing (including, without limitation, by telegraph, telex, telecopy or cable) filed with the records of the meeting (and whether executed before or after such meeting), waives such notice, or if such Director attends the meeting without protesting prior thereto or at its commencement the lack of notice to him. 3.

Action Without a Meeting. Unless otherwise provided by law or by the Articles of Organization or by the By-Laws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Directors may be taken without a meeting if all the Directors consent to the action in writing and the written consents are filed with the records of the meetings of Directors.

Telephone Conference Meetings. The Board of Directors or any committee designated thereby may participate in the meeting of such Board or committee by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other at the same time and participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at a meeting.

The Board of Directors may determine the form of certificates of stock except insofar as prescribed by law or by the By-Laws, and may provide for the use of facsimile signatures thereon to the extent permitted by law. If the corporation is authorized to issue more than one class or series of stock, every stock certificate issued while it is so authorized shall set forth on the face or back thereof either - (a) the full text of the preferences, voting powers, qualifications and special and relative rights of the shares of each class and series, if any, authorized to be issued as set forth in the Articles of Organization; or (b) a statement of the existence of such preferences, powers, qualifications and rights, and a statement that the Corporation will furnish a copy thereof to the holder of such certificate upon written request and without charge. 2.

The Board of Directors may fix in advance a time of not more than sixty days preceding the date of any meeting of stockholders or the date for payment of any dividend or the making of any distribution to stockholders or the last day on which the consent or dissent of stockholders may be effectively expressed for any purpose, as the record date for determining the stockholders having the right to notice of and to vote at such meeting and any adjournment thereof, or the right to receive such dividend or distribution, or the right to give such consent or dissent, and in such case, only stockholders of record on such record date shall have such right, notwithstanding any transfer of stock on the books of the corporation after the record date; or without fixing such record date the Board of Directors may, for any such purposes, close the transfer books for all or any part of such sixty-day period. If no record date is fixed and the transfer books are not closed - (a) the record date for determining stockholders having the right to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given; and (b) the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors acts with respect thereto. 4.

In case any certificate shall be mutilated, a new certificate may be issued in place thereof upon such terms as the Board of Directors may prescribe. 5. Issue of Stock. Unless otherwise voted by the incorporators or stockholders, the whole or any part of any unissued balance of the authorized capital stock of the corporation or the whole or any part of any capital stock of the corporation held in its treasury may be issued or disposed of by vote of the Board of Directors in such manner, for such consideration and on such terms as the Board of Directors may determine. 6. Dividends. Subject to any applicable provisions of the Articles of Organization and pursuant to law, dividends upon the capital stock of the corporation may be declared by the Board of Directors at any regular or special meeting upon the affirmative vote of three-fourths of the Directors then in office. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property or in shares of the capital stock. Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside out of any funds of the corporation available for dividends such sum or sums as the Board of Directors may from time to time, in the absolute discretion of the Board, think proper as a reserve fund to meet contingencies, for equalizing dividends, for repairing or maintaining any property of the corporation, for working capital or for such other purposes as the Board of Directors shall think conducive to the interests of the corporation. ARTICLE VI - Miscellaneous Provisions 1. Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the corporation shall end on the last day of December. 2. Seal. The seal of the corporation shall bear its name, the word "Massachusetts" and the year 1985 (the year of its incorporation), and may bear such other device or inscription as the Board of Directors may determine. 3. Execution of Instruments. All deeds, leases, transfers, contracts, bonds, notes, checks, drafts and other obligations for the payment of money made, accepted or endorsed by the corporation shall be executed on behalf of the corporation by such person or persons, as may be authorized from time to time by vote of the Board of Directors. 4. Contributions. The Board of Directors shall have authority to make donations from the funds of the corporation, in such amounts as the Board of Directors may determine to be reasonable and irrespective of corporate benefit, for the public welfare or for community fund, hospital, charitable, religious, educational, scientific, civic or similar purposes, and in time of war or other natural emergency in aid thereof. 5. Evidence of Authority. A certificate by the Clerk, an Assistant Clerk or the Secretary, or a Temporary Clerk or Temporary Secretary, as to any action taken by the stockholders, Board of Directors, any Committee of the Board of Directors or any officer or representative of the corporation shall, as to all persons who rely thereon in good faith, be conclusive evidence of such action. The exercise of any power which, by law or under these By-Laws or under any vote of the stockholders or of the Board of Directors, may be exercised in case of absence or any other contingency, shall bind the corporation in favor of anyone relying thereon in good faith, whether or not the absence or contingency existed. 6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors. The corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who heretofore has served, is currently serving or hereafter serves: (a) as an officer or Director of the corporation; (b) at the request of the corporation, as an officer or Director of another organization; or (c) at the request of the corporation, in any capacity with respect to an employee benefit plan; from and against any and all claims and liabilities to which such person may be or become subject by reason of such service (including, without limitation, by reason of such person's alleged acts or omissions in the course of such service), and shall indemnify and reimburse each such person against and for any and all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any such claims and liabilities, actual or threatened, whether or not at or prior to the time when so indemnified, held harmless and reimbursed such person has ceased to serve in such capacity, except with respect to any matter as to which such person shall have been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of the corporation (or, to the extent that such mattet relates to service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of such plan); provided, however, that prior to such final adjudication the corporation may compromise and settle any such claims and liabilities and pay such expenses, if such settlement or payment or both appears, in the judgment of a majority of those members of the Board of Directors who are not involved in such matters, to be in the best interest of the corporation (or of the participants or beneficiaries of any such plan, as the case may be) as evidenced by a resolution to that effect adopted after receipt by the corporation of a written opinion of counsel for the corporation, that, based on the facts available to such counsel, such person has not been guilty of acting in a manner that would prohibit indemnification. Such indemnification may include payment by the corporation of expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by the person indemnified to repay such payment if he shall be adjudicated to be not entitled to indemnification under this Section 6, which undertaking may be accepted without reference to the financial ability of such person to make repayment. The right of indemnification herein provided shall be in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights to which any officer or Director of the corporation, or any such persons who serve at its request as aforesaid, may otherwise be lawfully entitled. As used in this Section 6, the terms "officer" and "Director" include their respective heirs, executors and administrators. 7. Definitions. All references in the By-Laws to the following terms shall have the following meanings unless specifically otherwise provided: By-Laws - These By-Laws, as altered or amended from time to time. Articles of Organization - The Articles of Organization of the corporation recorded with the office of the Secretary of State, as may be amended from time to time. Number of Directors then Constituting a Full Board - The number of Directors last fixed by the incorporators or stockholders pursuant to Section 1 of Article II of the By-Laws.

No change in the date of the annual meeting may be made within sixty (60) days before the date fixed in these By-Laws for such meeting. The nature or substance of the proposed alterations, amendment or repeal shall be stated in the notice of the meeting. These By-Laws may also be amended from time to time by vote of the Board of Directors of the corporation, with the exception of any provision relating to rights, powers or duties of the stockholders of the corporation or any provision which by law, the Articles of Organization or these By-Laws requires action by the stockholders.
