Any director may waive notice of any meeting, and the attendance of a director at a meeting and oral consent entered on the minutes of such meeting shall constitute waiver of notice of the meeting unless such director objects, prior to the transaction of any business, that the meeting was not lawfully called, noticed or convened.

ARTICLE IV
CAPITAL STOCK

        4.01    Issuance.    Shares of the corporation's authorized stock shall, subject to any provisions or limitations of the laws of the State of Nevada, the Articles of Incorporation or any contracts or agreements to which the corporation may be a party, be issued in such manner, at such times, upon such conditions and for such consideration as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

        4.02    Certificates.    Ownership in the corporation shall be evidenced by certificates for shares of stock in such form as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors, may be under the seal of the corporation and shall be manually signed by the president or a vice president and/or the secretary or an assistant secretary, and/or by any other officers or agents designated by the Board of Directors for this purpose; provided, however, whenever any certificate is countersigned or otherwise authenticated by a transfer agent or transfer clerk, and by a registrar, then a facsimile of the signatures of said officers or agents of the corporation may be printed or lithographed upon the certificate in lieu of the actual signatures. If the corporation uses facsimile signatures of its officers and agents on its stock certificates, it shall not act as registrar of its own stock, but its transfer agent and registrar may be identical if the institution acting in those dual capacities countersigns any stock certificates in both capacities. Each certificate shall contain the name of the record holder, the number, designation, if any, class or series of shares represented, a statement, summary of or reference to any applicable rights, preferences, privileges or restrictions thereon, and a statement, if applicable, that the shares are assessable. All certificates shall be consecutively numbered. If provided by the stockholder, the name, address and federal tax identification number of the stockholder, the number of shares, and the date of issue shall be entered in the stock transfer records of the corporation.

        4.03    Surrendered; Lost or Destroyed Certificates.    All certificates surrendered to the corporation, except those representing shares of treasury stock, shall be canceled and no new certificate shall be issued until the former certificate for a like number of shares shall have been canceled, except that in case of a lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate, a new one may be issued therefor. However, any stockholder applying for the issuance of a stock certificate in lieu of one alleged to have been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated shall, prior to the issuance of a replacement, provide the corporation with his, her or its affidavit of the facts surrounding the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation and, if required by the Board of Directors, an indemnity bond in an amount not less than twice the current

10



market value of the stock, and upon such terms as the treasurer or the Board of Directors shall require which shall indemnify the corporation against any loss, damage, cost or inconvenience arising as a consequence of the issuance of a replacement certificate.

        4.04    Replacement Certificate.    When the Articles of Incorporation are amended in any way affecting the statements contained in the certificates for outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation or it becomes desirable for any reason, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, including, without limitation, the merger of the corporation with another corporation or the reorganization of the corporation, to cancel any outstanding certificate for shares and issue a new certificate therefor conforming to the rights of the holder, the Board of Directors may order any holders of outstanding certificates for shares to surrender and exchange the same for new certificates within a reasonable time to be fixed by the Board of Directors. The order may provide that a holder of any certificate(s) ordered to be surrendered shall not be entitled to vote, receive distributions or exercise any other rights of stockholders of record until the holder has complied with the order, but the order operates to suspend such rights only after notice and until compliance.

        4.05    Transfer of Shares.    No transfer of stock shall be valid as against the corporation except on surrender and cancellation of the certificates therefor accompanied by an assignment or transfer by the registered owner made either in person or under assignment. Whenever any transfer shall be expressly made for collateral security and not absolutely, the collateral nature of the transfer shall be reflected in the entry of transfer in the records of the corporation.

        4.06    Transfer Agent; Registrars.    The Board of Directors may appoint one or more transfer agents, transfer clerk and registrars of transfer and may require all certificates for shares of stock to bear the signature of such transfer agent, transfer clerk and/or registrar of transfer.

        4.07    Stock Transfer Records.    The stock transfer records shall be closed for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to all meetings of the stockholders and shall be closed for the payment of distributions as provided in Article V hereof and during such periods as, from time to time, may be fixed by the Board of Directors, and, during such periods, no stock shall be transferable for purposes of Article V and no voting rights shall be deemed transferred during such periods. Subject to the foregoing limitations, nothing contained herein shall cause transfers during such periods to be void or voidable.

        4.08    Miscellaneous.    The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to make such rules and regulations not inconsistent herewith as it may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer, and registration of certificates for shares of the corporation's stock.


ARTICLE V
DISTRIBUTIONS

        5.01    Distributions.    Distributions may be declared, subject to the provisions of the laws of the State of Nevada and the Articles of Incorporation, by the Board of Directors and may be paid in cash, property, shares of corporate stock, or any other medium. The Board of Directors may fix in advance a record date, as provided in Section 1.06, prior to the distribution for the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to receive any distribution. The Board of Directors may close the stock transfer books for such purpose for a period of not more than ten (10) days prior to the date of such distribution.

Such inspection may be made in person or by agent or attorney.

        6.03    Corporate Seal.    The Board of Directors may, by resolution, authorize a seal, and the seal may be used by causing it, or a facsimile, to be impressed or affixed or reproduced or otherwise.

ARTICLE VII

13


        7.02    Amendment.    The provisions of this Article VII relating to indemnification shall constitute a contract between the Corporation and each of its directors and officers which may be modified as to any director or officer only with that person's consent or as specifically provided in this Section. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Bylaws relating to their amendment generally, any repeal or amendment of this Article which is adverse to any director or officer shall apply to such director or officer only on a prospective basis, and shall not limit the rights of an Indemnitee to indemnification with respect to any action or failure to act occurring prior to the time of such repeal or amendment. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Bylaws (including, without limitation, Article VIII below), no repeal or amendment of these Bylaws shall affect any or all of this Article VII so as to limit or reduce the indemnification in any manner unless adopted by (a) the unanimous vote of the directors of the Corporation then serving, or (b) by the stockholders as set forth in Article VIII hereof; provided that no such amendment shall have a retroactive effect inconsistent with the preceding sentence.
