(a) General Rule. Unless otherwise provided by statute, all powers vested by law in the corporation shall be exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed under the direction of, the board of directors.
(b) Fundamental Transactions. Where any provision of 15 Pa.C.S. Ch. 19 requires that an amendment of the articles or a plan be proposed by action of the board of directors, that requirement shall be construed to authorize and be satisfied by the written agreement of all of the shareholders of a business corporation.
(c) Personal Liability of Directors.
-13-

(1) A director shall not be personally liable, as such, for monetary damages (including, without limitation, any judgment, amount paid in settlement, penalty, punitive damages or expense of any nature (including, without limitation, attorneys fees and disbursements)) for any action taken, or any failure to take any action, unless:
(i) the director has breached or failed to perform the duties of his or her office under subchapter 17B of the Business Corporation Law (or any successor provision); and
(ii) the breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness.
(2) The provisions of paragraph (1) shall not apply to the responsibility or liability of a director pursuant to any criminal statute, or the liability of a director for the payment of taxes pursuant to local, state or federal law.
(d) Notation of Dissent. A director who is present at a meeting of the board of directors, or of a committee of the board, at which action on any corporate matter is taken on which the director is generally competent to act, shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless his or her dissent is entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless the director files a written dissent to the action with the secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or transmits the dissent in writing to the secretary of the corporation immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. The right to dissent shall not apply to a director who voted in favor of the action. Nothing in this section shall bar a director from asserting that minutes of the meeting incorrectly omitted his or her dissent if, promptly upon receipt of a copy of such minutes, the director notifies the secretary, in writing, of the asserted omission or inaccuracy.
Section 4.02 Qualifications and Selection of Directors.
(a) Qualifications. Each director of the corporation shall be a natural person of full age who need not be a resident of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or a shareholder of the corporation.
(b) Power to Select Directors. Except as otherwise provided in these bylaws, directors of the corporation shall be elected by the shareholders.
(c) Nominations of Directors. Nominees for election to the board of directors at any special or annual meeting of the shareholders shall be selected by the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors to which the board of directors has delegated the authority to make such selections pursuant to Section 4.11 of these Bylaws. Nominees for election to the board of directors at any special or annual meeting of the shareholders may also be selected by shareholders, provided that such nominations are made in accordance with, and accompanied by the information required by, Section 3.02 (relating to annual meetings of shareholders) or Section 3.03 (relating to special meetings of shareholders). If the board of directors is classified with respect to the terms of directors, and if, due to a vacancy or vacancies, or otherwise, directors of more than one class are to be elected, each class of directors to be elected at the meeting shall be nominated and elected
-14-

separately. Any shareholder may nominate as many persons for the office of director as there are positions to be filled.
(d) Election of Directors.
(1) In elections for directors, voting need not be by ballot, unless required by vote of the shareholders before the voting for the election of directors begins. The candidates receiving the highest number of votes from each class or group of classes, if any, entitled to elect directors separately up to the number of directors to be elected by the class or group of classes shall be elected. Directors shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present. For purposes of this bylaw, a majority of the votes cast shall mean that the number of votes “for” a director’s election exceeds the number of votes “against” that director’s election. Votes cast shall exclude abstentions with respect to that director’s election. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an election of directors in which the number of nominees for election as directors at the meeting exceeds the number of directors to be elected, then directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting at which a quorum is present. If at any meeting of shareholders, directors of more than one class are to be elected, each class of directors shall be elected in a separate election.
(2) In order for any person to be nominated as a director of the corporation, such person must have submitted to the board of directors prior to the shareholder meeting for which the person is nominated an irrevocable conditional resignation from the board of directors, to take effect upon the occurrence of all of the following conditions: (i)such person stood for election to the board of directors at a shareholder meeting where the number of nominees did not exceed the number of directors to be elected; (ii) at such shareholder meeting the votes by the shareholders entitled to vote in the election cast against such person’s reelection (excluding abstentions) exceeded the votes cast for such person’s reelection; and (iii) such resignation having been accepted by the board of directors. Not later than ninety (90) days after the certification of an election by shareholders satisfying clauses (i) and (ii) the board of directors will decide, after receipt of a recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, whether to accept such conditional resignation. The director whose conditional resignation is being considered shall not participate in the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or the decision of the board of directors with respect to his or her conditional resignation. If there are not sufficient unaffected members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to form a quorum, the unaffected independent directors shall name a committee made up solely of unaffected independent directors to make recommendations to the board of directors as to the acceptance of tendered resignation(s). If the number of unaffected independent directors is three (3) or fewer, all directors may participate, with or without the naming of such committee as the directors may deem appropriate, in the decision as to whether to accept the tendered resignations. If the incumbent director’s resignation is not accepted by the board of directors, such director shall continue to serve until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor is duly elected, or his or her earlier resignation or removal.

(b) Action by Resigned Directors.

(d) Definitions. For purposes of this Article:
(1) “indemnified capacity” means any and all past, present and future service by an indemnified representative in one or more capacities as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or, at the request of the corporation, as a director, officer, employee, agent, fiduciary or trustee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other entity or enterprise;

-24-

the second of whom shall be selected by the indemnified representative and the third of whom shall be selected by the other two arbitrators. In the absence of the American Arbitration Association, or if for any reason arbitration under the arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association cannot be initiated, and if one of the parties fails or refuses to select an arbitrator or the arbitrators selected by the corporation and the indemnified representative cannot agree on the selection of the third arbitrator within 30 days after such time as the corporation and the indemnified representative have each been notified of the selection of the other’s arbitrator, the necessary arbitrator or arbitrators shall be selected by the presiding judge of the court of general jurisdiction in such metropolitan area.

This arbitration provision shall be specifically enforceable.
Section 7.07 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article or otherwise is unavailable for any reason in respect of any liability or portion thereof, the corporation shall contribute to the liabilities to which the indemnified representative may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the intent of this Article or otherwise.
