4.6 | Adjournments.

Any meeting of shareholders, annual or special, may be adjourned by the Chair of the meeting, from time to time, whether or not there is a quorum, to reconvene at the same or some other place. Notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the date, time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of telephonic, electronic or other communication facility, if any, by which shareholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the earliest meeting that is adjourned. At the adjourned meeting, the shareholders, or the holders of any class or series of shares entitled to vote separately as a class, as the case may be, may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for 30 days or more, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting and, unless required under the Act or Applicable Securities Laws, solicitation of proxies will not be mandatory. If the original meeting was adjourned for lack of a quorum, at the adjourned meeting, the shareholders present in person or their duly appointed proxyholders so present shall form the quorum whatever the number of shares represented.
