All notices of meetings of Shareholders shall be sent or otherwise given in accordance with Section 2.05 not less than ten (10), or if sent by third class mail thirty (30), nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. ‘The notice shall specify the place, date, and hour of the meeting and (i) in the case of a special meeting, the general nature of the business to be transacted, or (ii) in the case of the annual meeting, those matters which the Board of Directors, at the time of giving the notice, intends to present for action by the Shareholders.

Section 2.05 MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE; AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE.

If no such address appears on the Corporation’s books or is given, notice shall be deemed to have been given if sent to that Shareholder by first class mail or telegraphic or other written communication to the Corporation’s principal executive office, or if published at least once in the newspaper of general circulation in the county where that office is located. Notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or sent by telegram or other means of written communication.

If any notice addressed to a Shareholder at the address of that Shareholder appearing on the books of the Corporation is returned to the Corporation by the United States Postal Service marked to indicate that the United States Postal Service is unable to deliver the notice to the Shareholder at that address, all future notices or reports shall be deemed to have been duly given without further mailing if these shall be available to the Shareholder on written demand of the Shareholder at the principal executive office of the Corporation for a period of one year from the date of the giving of the notice.

An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice of any Shareholder’s meeting shall be executed by the Secretary, Assistant Secretary, or any transfer agent of the Corporation giving the notice, and shall be filed and maintained in the minute book of the Corporation.

Section 2.06 QUORUM. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at any meeting of Shareholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The Shareholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to do business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Shareholders to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken, other than adjournment, is approved by at least a majority of the shares required to constitute a quorum.

Section 2.07 ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE. Any Shareholders’ meeting, annual or special, whether or not a quorum is present, may be adjourned from time to time by the vote of the majority of the shares represented at that meeting, either in person or by proxy, but in the absence of a quorum, no other business may be transacted at that meeting, except as provided in Section 2.06.

When any meeting of Shareholders, either annual or special, is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place are announced at a meeting at which the adjournment is taken, unless a new record date for the adjourned meeting is fixed, or unless the adjournment is for more than forty-five (45) days from the date set for the original meeting, in which case the Board of Directors shall set a new record date. Notice of any such adjourned meeting shall be given to each Shareholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.04 and 2.05. At any adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

Section 2.08 VOTING. The Shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of Shareholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11, subject to the Corporations Code of California (relating to voting shares held by a fiduciary, in the name of a Corporation, or in joint ownership.). The Shareholder’s vote may be by voice vote or by ballot; provided, however, that any election for Directors must be by ballot if demanded by any Shareholder before the voting has begun. On any matter other than elections of Directors, any Shareholder may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or vote them against the proposal, but, if the Shareholder fails to specify the number of shares which the Shareholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the Shareholder’s approving vote is with respect to all shares that the Shareholder is entitled to vote. Except as provided in Section 2.06, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voting at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present (which shares voting affirmatively also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum) shall be the act of the Shareholders, unless the vote of a greater number or voting by classes is required by the California General Corporation Law, by the Articles of Incorporation, or by the Bylaws.

At a Shareholders’ meeting at which Directors are to be elected, no Shareholder shall be entitled to cumulate votes, i.e. cast for any candidate a number of votes greater than the number of votes which such Shareholder normally is entitled to cast, unless the candidates’ names have

been placed in nomination prior to commencement of the voting and a Shareholder has given notice prior to commencement of the voting of the Shareholder’s intention to cumulate votes. If any Shareholder has given such a notice, then every Shareholder entitled to vote may cumulate votes for candidates in nomination and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of Directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes to which that Shareholder’s shares are entitled, or distribute the Shareholder’s votes on the same principle among any or all of the candidates, as the Shareholder thinks fit. The candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of Directors to be elected, shall be elected.

Section 2.09 WAIVER OF NOTICE OR CONSENT BY ABSENT SHAREHOLDERS. The transactions of any meeting of Shareholders, either annual or special, however called and noticed, and wherever held, shall be as valid as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum be present either in person or by proxy, and if, either before or after the meeting, each person entitled to vote, who was not present in person or by proxy, signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of the meeting, or an approval of the minutes. Any waiver of notice, consent to the holding of a meeting, or approval of the minutes thereof, need not specify either the business to be transacted at or the purpose of any annual or special meeting of Shareholders, except that if action is taken or proposed to be taken for approval of any of those matters specified in the second paragraph of Section 2.04, the waiver of notice, consent, or approval shall state the general nature of the proposal. All such waivers, consents, or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

Attendance by a person at a meeting shall also constitute a waiver of notice of and presence at such meeting, except when the person objects, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, and except that attendance at a meeting is not a waiver of any right to object to the consideration of matters not included in the notice of the meeting if that objection is expressly made at the meeting.

Section 2.10 SHAREHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of Shareholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice, if a consent in writing setting forth the action so taken is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take that action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on that action were present and voted. In the case of approval of (i) contracts or transactions in which a Director has a direct or indirect financial interest, pursuant to Section 310 of the Corporations Code of California, (ii) indemnifications of agents of the Corporation, pursuant to Section 317 of that Code, (iii) a reorganization of the Corporation, pursuant to Section 1201 of that Code, and (iv) a distribution in dissolution other than in accordance with the rights of outstanding preferred shares, pursuant to Section 2007 of that Code, the notice shall be given at least ten (10) days before the consummation of any action authorized by that approval.

Section 2.11 RECORD DATE FOR SHAREHOLDER NOTICE, VOTING, AND GIVING CONSENTS. For purposes of determining the Shareholders entitled to notice of any meeting or to vote or entitled to give consent to corporate action without a meeting, 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 before the date of any such meeting nor more than sixty (60) days before any such action without a meeting, and in this event only Shareholders of record at the close of business on the date so fixed are entitled to notice and to vote or to give consents, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the Corporation after the record date, except as otherwise provided in the California General Corporation Law.

If the Board of Directors does not so fix a record date:

(a) The record date for determining Shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Shareholders shall be at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

(b) The record date for determining Shareholders entitled to give consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, (i) when no prior action by the Board has been taken, shall be the day on which the first written consent is given, or (ii) when prior action of the Board has been taken, shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating to that action, or the sixtieth (60th) day before the date of such other action, whichever is later.

Section 2.12 PROXIES. Every person entitled to vote for Directors or on any other matter shall have the right to do so either in person or by one or more agents authorized by a written proxy signed by the person and filed with the Secretary of the Corporation. A proxy shall be deemed signed if the Shareholder’s name is placed on the proxy, whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission, or otherwise, by the Shareholder or the Shareholder’s attorney in fact. A validly executed proxy which does not state that it is irrevocable shall continue in full force and effect unless (i) revoked by the person executing it, before the vote pursuant to that proxy, by a writing delivered to the Corporation stating that the proxy is revoked, or by a subsequent proxy executed by the person executing the prior proxy and presented to the meeting, or as to any meeting by attendance at such meeting and voting in person by the person executing the proxy; or (ii) written notice of the death or incapacity .of the maker of that proxy is received by the Corporation before the vote pursuant to that proxy is counted; provided, however, that no proxy shall be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months from the date of the proxy, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Sections 705(e) and 705(f) of the Corporations Code of California.

Section 2.13 INSPECTORS OF ELECTION. Before any meeting of Shareholders, the Board of Directors may appoint any persons other than nominees for office to act as inspectors of election at the meeting or its adjournment. If no inspectors of election are so appointed, the chairman of the meeting may, and on the request of any Shareholder or a Shareholder’s proxy shall, appoint inspectors of election at the meeting. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If inspectors are appointed at a meeting on the request of one or more Shareholders or proxies, the holders of a majority of shares or their proxies present at the meeting shall determine whether one (1) or three (3) inspectors are to be appointed. If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, the chairman of the meeting may,

and upon the request of any Shareholder or a Shareholder’s proxy shall, appoint a person to fill that vacancy.

These inspectors shall:

(a) Determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity, and effect of proxies;

(b) Receive votes, ballots, or consents;

(d) Count and tabulate all votes or consents

Officer, employee, or agent of another foreign or domestic Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or was a Director, Officer, employee, or agent of a foreign or domestic Corporation which was a predecessor Corporation of this Corporation or of another enterprise at the request of such predecessor Corporation; “proceeding” means any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative; and “expenses” included, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and any expenses of establishing a right to indemnification under Section 6.04 or 6.05(c).

Section 6.02 ACTIONS OTHER THAN BY THE CORPORATION. This Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any proceeding, other than an action by or in the right of this Corporation to procure judgment in its favor, by reason of the fact that such person is or was an agent of this Corporation, against expenses, judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such proceeding if that person acted in good faith and in a manner that person

reasonably believed to be in the best interests of this Corporation and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any 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 the person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of this Corporation or that the person had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

Section 6.03 ACTIONS BY THE CORPORATION. This 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 by or in the right of this Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that that person is or was an agent of this Corporation, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by that person in connection with the defense or settlement of that action if that person acted in good faith, in a manner that person believed to be in the best interests of this Corporation and with such care, including reasonable inquiry, as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. No indemnification shall be made under this Section 6.03:

(a) In respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which that person shall have been adjudged to be liable to this Corporation in the performance of that person’s duty to this Corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which such proceeding is or was pending shall determine upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for the expenses which the court shall determine;

(b) Of amounts paid in settling or otherwise disposing of a threatened or pending action, with or without court approval; or

(c) Of expenses incurred in defending a threatened or pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of without court approval.

Section 6.04 SUCCESSFUL DEFENSE BY AGENT. To the extent that an agent of this Corporation has been successful on the merits in defense of any proceeding referred to in Sections 6.02 or 6.03, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, the agent shall be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the agent in connection therewith.

Section 6.05 REQUIRED APPROVAL. Except as provided in Section 6.04, any indemnification under this Article shall be made by this Corporation only if authorized in the specific case on a determination that indemnification of the agent is proper in the circumstances because the agent has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 6.02 or 6.03, by:

(a) A majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who are not parties to the proceeding;

(b) Approval by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of this Corporation entitled to vote represented at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present or by the written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. For this

purpose, the shares owned by the person to be indemnified shall not be considered outstanding or entitled to vote thereon; or

(c) The court in which the proceeding is or was pending, on application made by this Corporation or the agent or the attorney or other person rendering services in connection with the defense, whether or not such application by the agent, attorney, or other person is opposed by this Corporation.

Section 6.06 ADVANCE OF EXPENSES. Expenses incurred in defending any proceeding may be advanced by this Corporation before the final disposition of the proceeding on receipt of’ any undertaking by or on behalf of the agent to repay the amount of the advance unless it shall be determined ultimately that the agent is entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Article.

Section 6.07 OTHER CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS. Nothing contained in this Article shall affect any right to indemnification to which persons other than Directors and Officers of this Corporation or any subsidiary hereof may be entitled by contract or otherwise.

Section 6.08 LIMITATIONS. No indemnification or advance shall be made under this Article, except as provided in Section 6.04 or 6.05(c), in any circumstance where it appears:

(a) That it would be inconsistent with a provision of the articles, a resolution of the Shareholders, or an agreement in effect at the time of the accrual of the alleged cause of action asserted in the proceeding in which the expenses were incurred or other amounts were paid, which prohibits or otherwise limits indemnification; or

(b) That it would be inconsistent with any condition expressly imposed by a court in approving a settlement.

Section 6.09 INSURANCE. Upon and in the event of a determination by the Board of Directors of this Corporation to purchase such insurance, this Corporation shall purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any agent of the Corporation against any liability asserted against or incurred by the agent in such capacity or arising out of the agent’s status as such whether or not this Corporation would have the power to indemnify the agent against that liability under the provisions of this section.

Section 6.10 FIDUCIARIES OF CORPORATE EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN. Except as provided in this section, this Article does not apply to any proceeding against any trustee, investment manager, or other fiduciary of an employee benefit plan or trust in that person’s capacity as such, even though that person may also be an agent of the Corporation as defined in Section 6.01. Upon and in the event of a determination by the Board of Directors of this Corporation to so indemnify, this Corporation shall indemnify such a trustee, investment manager, or other fiduciary to the maximum extent permitted by law.
