Section 3.1ANNUAL MEETING. - The annual meeting of the shareowners (the "Annual Meeting") shall be held at such date and time as the Board of Directors may determine. In fixing a meeting date for any Annual Meeting, the Board of Directors may consider such factors as it deems relevant within the good faith exercise of its business judgment. At each Annual Meeting, the shareowners shall elect that number of directors equal to the number of directors in the class whose term expires at the time of such meeting. At any such Annual Meeting, only other business properly brought before the meeting in accordance with Section 3.14 of these Bylaws may be transacted. If the election of directors shall not be held on the date fixed as herein provided, for any Annual Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of shareowners (a "Special Meeting") as soon thereafter as is practicable.

Section 3.2SPECIAL MEETINGS. - A Special Meeting may be called only by (i) the Board of Directors or (ii) the Chief Executive Officer and shall be called by the Chief Executive Officer upon the demand, in accordance with this Section 3.2, of the holders of record of shares representing at least 10% of all the votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at the Special Meeting.

(a)    In order that the Corporation may determine the shareowners entitled to demand a Special Meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date to determine the shareowners entitled to make such a demand (the "Demand Record Date"). The Demand Record Date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the Demand Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors and shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the Demand Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors. Any shareowner of record seeking to have shareowners demand a Special Meeting shall, by sending written notice to the Corporate Secretary of

the Corporation by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, request the Board of Directors to fix a Demand Record Date. The Board of Directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten days after the date on which a valid request to fix a Demand Record Date is received, adopt a resolution fixing the Demand Record Date and shall make a public announcement of such Demand Record Date. If no Demand Record Date has been fixed by the Board of Directors within ten days after the date on which such request is received by the Corporate Secretary, the Demand Record Date shall be the 10th day after the first date on which a valid written request to set a Demand Record Date is received by the Corporate Secretary. To be valid, such written request shall set forth the purpose or purposes for which the Special Meeting is to be held, shall be signed by one or more shareowners of record (or their duly authorized proxies or other representatives), shall bear the date of signature of each such shareowner (or proxy or other representative) and shall set forth all information about each such shareowner and about the beneficial owner or owners, if any, on whose behalf the request is made that would be required to be set forth in a shareowner's notice described in paragraph (a) (ii) of Section 3.14 of these Bylaws.

(b)    In order for a shareowner or shareowners to demand a Special Meeting, a written demand or demands for a Special Meeting by the holders of record as of the Demand Record Date of shares representing at least 10% of all the votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at the Special Meeting must be delivered to the Corporation. To be valid, each written demand by a shareowner for a Special Meeting shall set forth the specific purpose or purposes for which the Special Meeting is to be held (which purpose or purposes shall be limited to the purpose or purposes set forth in the written request to set a Demand Record Date received by the Corporation pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 3.2), shall be signed by one or more persons who as of the Demand Record Date are shareowners of record (or their duly authorized proxies or other representatives), shall bear the date of signature of each such shareowner (or proxy or other representative), and shall set forth the name and address, as they appear in the Corporation's books, of each shareowner signing such demand and the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are owned of record and beneficially by each such shareowner, shall be sent to the Corporate Secretary by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, and shall be received by the Corporate Secretary within seventy days after the Demand Record Date.

(c)    The Corporation shall not be required to call a Special Meeting upon shareowner demand unless, in addition to the documents required by paragraph (c) of this Section 3.2, the Corporate Secretary receives a written agreement signed by each Soliciting Shareowner (as defined below), pursuant to which each Soliciting Shareowner, jointly and severally, agrees to pay the Corporation's costs of holding the Special Meeting, including the costs of preparing and mailing proxy materials for the Corporation's own solicitation, provided that if each of the resolutions introduced by any Soliciting Shareowner at such meeting is adopted, and each of the individuals nominated by or on behalf of any Soliciting Shareowner for election as a director at such meeting is elected, then the Soliciting Shareowners shall not be required to pay such costs. For purposes of this paragraph (d), the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

(i)    "Affiliate" of any Person (as defined herein) shall mean any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with such first Person.

(ii)    "Participant" shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 14a-12 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

(iii)    "Person" shall mean any individual, firm, corporation, partnership, joint venture, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity.

(iv)    "Proxy" shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 14a-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

(v)    "Solicitation" shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 14a‑1 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

(vi)    "Soliciting Shareowner" shall mean, with respect to any Special Meeting demanded by a shareowner or shareowners, any of the following Persons:

2

(A)    if the number of shareowners signing the demand or demands of meeting delivered to the Corporation pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 3.2 is ten or fewer, each shareowner signing any such demand;

(B)    if the number of shareowners signing the demand or demands of meeting delivered to the Corporation pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 3.2 is more than ten, each Person who either (I) was a Participant in any Solicitation of such demand or demands or (II) at the time of the delivery to the Corporation of the documents described in paragraph (c) of this Section 3.2 had engaged or intends to engage in any Solicitation of Proxies for use at such Special Meeting (other than a Solicitation of Proxies on behalf of the Corporation); or

(C)    any Affiliate of a Soliciting Shareowner, if a majority of the directors then in office determine, reasonably and in good faith, that such Affiliate should be required to sign the written notice described in paragraph (c) of this Section 3.2 and/or the written agreement described in this paragraph (d) in order to prevent the purposes of this Section 3.2 from being evaded.

(d)    Except as provided in the following sentence, any Special Meeting shall be held at such hour and day as may be designated by whichever of the Board of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer shall have called such meeting. In the case of any Special Meeting called by the Chief Executive Officer upon the demand of shareowners (a "Demand Special Meeting"), such meeting shall be held at such hour and day as may be designated by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the date of any Demand Special Meeting shall be not more than seventy days after the Meeting Record Date (as defined in Section 3.6 hereof); and providedfurther that in the event that the directors then in office fail to designate an hour and date for a Demand Special Meeting within ten days after the date that valid written demands for such meeting by the holders of record as of the Demand Record Date of shares representing at least 10% of all the votes entitled to be cast on each issue proposed to be considered at the Special Meeting are delivered to the Corporation (the "Delivery Date"), then such meeting shall be held at 2:00 P.M. local time on the 100th day after the Delivery Date or, if such 100th day is not a Business Day (as defined below), on the first preceding Business Day. In fixing a meeting date for any Special Meeting, the Board of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer may consider such factors as it or he deems relevant within the good faith exercise of its or his business judgment, including, without limitation, the nature of the action proposed to be taken, the facts and circumstances surrounding any demand for such meeting, and any plan of the Board of Directors to call an Annual Meeting or a Special Meeting for the conduct of related business.

(e)    The Corporation may engage regionally or nationally recognized independent inspectors of elections to act as an agent of the Corporation for the purpose of promptly performing a ministerial review of the validity of any purported written demand or demands for a Special Meeting received by the Corporate Secretary. For the purpose of permitting the inspectors to perform such review, no purported demand shall be deemed to have been delivered to the Corporation until the earlier of (i) five Business Days following receipt by the Corporate Secretary of such purported demand and (ii) such date as the independent inspectors certify to the Corporation that the valid demands received by the Corporate Secretary represent at least 10% of all the votes entitled to be cast on each issue proposed to be considered at the Special Meeting. Nothing contained in this paragraph (f) shall in any way be construed to suggest or imply that the Board of Directors or any shareowner shall not be entitled to contest the validity of any demand, whether during or after such five Business Day period, or to take any other action (including, without limitation, the commencement, prosecution or defense of any litigation with respect thereto).

(f)    For purposes of these Bylaws, "Business Day" shall mean any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of Wisconsin are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

Section 3.3PLACE OF MEETING. - The Board of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer may designate any place, either within or without the State of Wisconsin, as the place for any Annual Meeting or any Special Meeting, or for any postponement thereof. If no designation is made, the place of meeting shall be the principal office of the Corporation. Any meeting may be adjourned to reconvene at any place designated by vote of the Board of Directors or determined by the Chief Executive Officer.

Section 3.4NOTICE OF MEETINGS - Written notice stating the date, time and place of any meeting of shareowners shall be delivered not less than ten days nor more than seventy days before the date of the meeting (unless a different time period is provided by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law or the Articles of Incorporation), by or at the direction of the Chief Executive Officer or the Corporate Secretary, to each shareowner of record entitled to vote at such meeting (other than a shareowner that the Corporation is not required to give such notice to under the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law) and to such other persons as required by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law. In the event of any Demand Special Meeting, such notice of meeting shall be sent not more than thirty days after the Delivery Date. Unless otherwise required by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law or the Articles of Incorporation, a notice of an Annual Meeting need not include a description of the purpose for which the meeting is called. In the case of any Special Meeting, (i) the notice of meeting shall describe any business that the Board of Directors shall have theretofore determined to bring before the meeting and (ii) in the case of a Demand Special Meeting, the notice of meeting (A) shall describe any business set forth in the statement of purpose of the demands received by the Corporation in accordance with Section 3.2 of these Bylaws and (B) shall contain all of the information required in the notice received by the Corporation in accordance with Section 3.14(b) of these Bylaws. If an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting is adjourned to a different date, time or place, the Corporation shall not be required to give notice of the new date, time or place if the new date, time or place is announced at the meeting before adjournment; provided, however, that if a new Meeting Record Date for an adjourned meeting is or must be fixed, the Corporation shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to persons who are shareowners as of the new Meeting Record Date.

Section 3.5WAIVER OF NOTICE - A shareowner may waive any notice required by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws before or after the date and time stated in the notice. The waiver shall be in writing and signed by the shareowner entitled to the notice, contain the same information that would have been required in the notice under applicable provisions of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law (except that the time and place of meeting need not be stated) and be delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the corporate records. A shareowner's attendance at any Annual Meeting or Special Meeting, in person or by proxy, waives objection to all of the following: (a) lack of notice or defective notice of the meeting, unless the shareowner at the beginning of the meeting or promptly upon arrival objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting; and (b) consideration of a particular matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose described in the meeting notice, unless the shareowner objects to considering the matter when it is presented.

Section 3.6FIXING OF RECORD DATE. - The Board of Directors may fix in advance a date not less than ten days and not more than seventy days prior to the date of an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting as the record date for the determination of shareowners entitled to notice of, or to vote at, such meeting (the "Meeting Record Date"). In the case of any Demand Special Meeting, (i) the Meeting Record Date shall be not later than the 30th day after the Delivery Date and (ii) if the Board of Directors fails to fix the Meeting Record Date within thirty days after the Delivery Date, then the close of business on such 30th day shall be the Meeting Record Date. The shareowners of record on the Meeting Record Date shall be the shareowners entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting. Except as provided by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law for a court-ordered adjournment, a determination of shareowners entitled to notice of and to vote at an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting is effective for any adjournment of such meeting unless the Board of Directors fixes a new Meeting Record Date, which it shall do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting. The Board of Directors may also fix in advance a date as the record date for the purpose of determining shareowners entitled to take any other action or determining shareowners for any other purpose. Such record date shall be not more than seventy days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such determination of shareowners, is to be taken. The record date for determining shareowners entitled to a distribution (other than a distribution involving a purchase, redemption or other acquisition of the Corporation's shares) or a share dividend is the date on which the Board of

4

Directors authorizes the distribution or share dividend, as the case may be, unless the Board of Directors fixes a different record date.

Section 3.7SHAREOWNER LIST. - The Corporation shall have available, beginning two (2) business days after the notice of the meeting is given for which the list was prepared and continuing to the date of the meeting, a complete record of each shareowner entitled to vote at such meeting, or any adjournment thereof, showing the address of and number of shares held by each shareowner. The shareowner list shall be available for inspection by any shareowner during normal business hours at the Corporation’s principal office or at a place identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held. The Corporation shall make the shareowners’ list available at the meeting and any shareowner or his agent or attorney may inspect the list at any time the meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Section 3.8QUORUM AND VOTING REQUIREMENTS.

(a)    Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on a matter at any Annual Meeting or Special Meeting only if a quorum of those shares exists with respect to that matter. If the Corporation has only one class of stock outstanding, such class shall constitute a separate voting group for purposes of this Section 3.8. Except as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter shall constitute a quorum of the voting group for action on that matter. Once a share is represented for any purpose at any Annual Meeting or Special Meeting, other than for the purpose of objecting to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting, it is considered present for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists for the remainder of the meeting and for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new Meeting Record Date is or must be set for the adjourned meeting. If a quorum exists, except in the case of the election of directors, action on a matter shall be approved if the votes cast within the voting group favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the Articles of Incorporation or the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law requires a greater number of affirmative votes. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, each director to be elected shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors at an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting at which a quorum is present.

(b)    The Board of Directors acting by resolution may postpone and reschedule any previously scheduled Annual Meeting or Special Meeting; provided, however, that a Demand Special Meeting shall not be postponed beyond the 100th day following the Delivery Date. Any Annual Meeting or Special Meeting may be adjourned from time to time, whether or not there is a quorum, (i) at any time, upon a resolution by shareowners if the votes cast in favor of such resolution by the holders of shares of each voting group entitled to vote on any matter theretofore properly brought before the meeting exceed the number of votes cast against such resolution by the holders of shares of each such voting group or (ii) at any time prior to the transaction of any business at such meeting, by the Chairperson of the Board or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors. No notice of the time and place of adjourned meetings need be given except as required by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified.

Section 3.9CONDUCT OF MEETING. - The Chairperson of the Board shall preside at each meeting of shareowners. In the absence of the Chairperson of the Board, such persons, in the following order, shall act as chair of the meeting: the Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Vice President, and the Director in attendance with the longest tenure in that office. The Corporate Secretary of the Corporation or, if he or she is absent, an Assistant Corporate Secretary of the Corporation or other person appointed by the chair of the meeting shall act as secretary of each shareowner meeting. The Board of Directors may, to the extent not prohibited by law, adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board of Directors, the chair of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations or procedures and to do such acts as, in the judgment of the chair of the meeting, are appropriate for the proper conduct of an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chair of the meeting, may to the extent not prohibited by law include, without limitation, the following: (a) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting and time of adjournment of the meeting; (b) rules and procedures for maintaining

5

order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (c) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to shareowners of record of the corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies (which shall be reasonable in number) or such other persons as the chairman of the meeting shall determine; (d) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; (e) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants; (f) rules and procedures regarding the execution of election ballots before or after the time fixed for the commencement of the meeting; (g) the appointment of an inspector of election or an officer or agent of the corporation authorized to tabulate votes; and (h) rules and procedures to facilitate the conduct of, and participation in, the meeting by electronic means. The chair of the meeting shall determine and announce at the meeting the time at which the polls will close for each matter voted up at the meeting.

Section 3.10PROXIES. – At any Annual Meeting or Special Meeting, a shareowner entitled to vote may vote his or her shares in person or by proxy. A shareowner entitled to vote at an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting may authorize another person to act for the shareowner by appointing the person as proxy. Without limiting the manner in which a shareowner may appoint a proxy, a shareowner or the shareowner’s authorized officer, director, employee, agent or attorney-in-fact may use any of the following as a valid means to make such an appointment:

(a)    Appointment of a proxy in writing by signing or causing the shareowner’s signature to be affixed to an appointment form by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

(b)    Appointment of a proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission of the appointment to the person who will be appointed as proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent authorized to receive the transmission by the person who will be appointed as proxy. Every electronic transmission shall contain, or be accompanied by, information that can be used to reasonably determine that the shareowner transmitted or authorized the transmission of the electronic transmission. Any person charged with determining whether a shareowner transmitted or authorized the transmission of the electronic transmission shall specify the information upon which the determination is made.

An appointment of a proxy is effective when a signed appointment form or an electronic transmission of the appointment is received by the inspector of election or the officer or agent of the Corporation authorized to tabulate votes. An appointment is valid for eleven months unless a different period is expressly provided in the appointment. Unless otherwise provided, a proxy may be revoked any time before it is voted, either by appointing a new proxy in accordance with the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law or by oral notice given by the shareowner to the presiding officer during the meeting. The presence of a shareowner who has made an effective proxy appointment shall not itself constitute a revocation. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to make rules establishing presumptions as to the validity and sufficiency of proxies.

Section 3.11VOTING OF SHARES. - Except as provided in the Articles of Incorporation or statute, each outstanding share entitled to vote shall be entitled to one (1) vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareowners.

Section 3.12VOTING OF SHARES BY CERTAIN HOLDERS. - Shares standing in the name of another corporation may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the Bylaws of such corporation may prescribe, or, in the absence of such provision, as the Board of Directors of such corporation may determine.

Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian or conservator may be voted by such person, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into that person’s name. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by such trustee, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into the trustee’s name. The Corporation may request evidence of such fiduciary status with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment.

Shares standing in the name of a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy may be voted by such receiver or trustee, and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by such receiver without the transfer of the shares into such person’s name if authority so to do is contained in an appropriate order of the court by which such receiver was appointed.

6

A pledgee, beneficial owner, or attorney-in-fact of the shares held in the name of a shareowner shall be entitled to vote such shares. The Corporation may request evidence of such signatory’s authority to sign for the shareowner with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment.

Neither treasury shares nor shares held by another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote for the election of Directors of such other corporation is held by the Corporation, shall be voted at any meeting or counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given time.

Section 3.13ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. - Any action required or permitted by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws or any provision of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law to be taken at an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting may be taken without a meeting if a written consent or consents, describing the action so taken, is signed by all of the shareowners entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof and delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the corporate records.

(c)    In case of nonpayment pursuant to Section 8.3(b), the Board shall immediately authorize by resolution that an Authority, as provided in Section 8.4, determine whether the Director’s or Officer’s conduct constituted a Breach of Duty and, therefore, whether indemnification should be denied hereunder.

(c)    The Authority shall make its determination within sixty days of being selected and shall submit a written opinion of its conclusion simultaneously to both the Corporation and the Director or Officer.

(e)    The determination by the Authority that indemnification is required hereunder shall be binding upon the Corporation, regardless of any prior determination that the Director or Officer engaged in a Breach of Duty.

(b)    The Corporation shall indemnify an employee who is not a Director or Officer, to the extent he or she has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of a Proceeding, for all reasonable Expenses incurred in the Proceeding if the employee was a Party because he or she was an employee of the Corporation.

17

(c)    The Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion as it deems appropriate, pursuant to a majority vote thereof, indemnify (to the extent not otherwise provided in Section 8.6(b)) against Liabilities incurred by, and/or provide for the allowance of reasonable Expenses of, an employee or authorized agent of the Corporation acting within the scope of his or her duties as such and who is not a Director or Officer.

Section 8.8NOTICE TO THE CORPORATION. - A Director or Officer or an employee of the Corporation shall promptly notify the Corporation in writing when he or she has actual knowledge of a Proceeding that may result in a claim of indemnification against Liabilities or allowance of Expenses hereunder, but the failure to do so shall not relieve the Corporation of any liability to the Director or Officer or employee hereunder unless the Corporation shall have been irreparably prejudiced by such failure (as determined, in the case of Directors or Officers only, by an Authority selected pursuant to Section 8.4(a)).

Section 8.9SEVERABILITY. - If any provision of this Article VIII shall be deemed invalid or inoperative, or if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the provisions of this Article VIII contravene public policy, then this Article VIII shall be construed so that the remaining provisions shall not be affected, but shall remain in full force and effect, and any such provisions which are invalid or inoperative or which contravene public policy shall be deemed, without further action or deed by or on behalf of the Corporation, to be modified, amended and/or limited, but only to the extent necessary to render the same valid and enforceable; it being understood that it is the Corporation’s intention to provide Directors and Officers with the broadest possible protection against personal liability allowable under the Statute.

Section 8.10NONEXCLUSIVITY OF ARTICLE VIII. - The rights of a Director or Officer or an employee of the Corporation (or any other person) granted under this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to indemnification against Liabilities or allowance of Expenses which the Director or Officer or employee of the Corporation (or such other person) may be entitled to under any written agreement, Board resolution, vote of shareowners of the Corporation or otherwise, including, without limitation, under the Statute. Nothing contained in this Article VIII shall be deemed to limit the Corporation’s obligations to indemnify against Liabilities or allow Expenses to a Director or Officer or an employee of the Corporation under the Statute.

Section 8.11CONTRACTUAL NATURE OF ARTICLE VIII; REPEAL OR LIMITATION OF RIGHTS. - This Article VIII shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each Director or Officer and employee of the Corporation and any repeal or other limitation of this Article VIII or any repeal or limitation of the Statute or any other applicable law shall not limit any rights of indemnification against Liabilities or allowance of Expenses then existing or arising out of events, acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or limitation, including, without limitation, the right to indemnification against Liabilities or allowance of Expenses for Proceedings commenced after such repeal or limitation to enforce this Article VIII with regard to acts, omissions or events arising prior to such repeal or limitation. If the Statute is amended to permit or require the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than this Article VIII permits or requires, then this Article VIII shall be automatically amended and deemed to incorporate such broader indemnification rights.
