INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
Section 5 - Corporate Governance and Management
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
(a) The Board of Directors of FirstFlight, Inc., a Nevada corporation and the registrant (the “Company”), amended its Bylaws effective April 29, 2008. A copy of the amended Bylaws is filed as Exhibit 3(ii)(2) to this Report and is incorporated herein by this reference.
The new Bylaws reflect the following changes:
(i) Section 2.5 was amended to indicate that the Chairman of the Board of the Company, not a person designated by the Board of Directors, shall act as chairman at meetings of the stockholders, thereby making the provision consistent with Section 5.2 defining the duties of the Chairman of the Board.
(ii) Section 3.4 was amended to add the Chairman of the Board as a party authorized to call a special meeting of the Board, in addition to one-third of the directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In addition, the reference to waiver of notice in the notice sentence was deleted in view of Section 8.2 relating to waiver of notice for all types of meetings.
(iii) Section 3.10 was amended to delete the right of stockholders to authorize a loan to a director or officer of the Company in view of the absolute prohibitation on such loans in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
(iv) Section 5.1 was amended to permit the Board to appoint one or more Vice Chairmen of the Board, thereby formalizing what had been a practice.
(v) Section 5.3 was amended to make it clear that the general supervision and direction of all of the officers of the Company by the President did not extend to the Chairman of the Board or any Vice Chairman of the Board.
(vi) A new Section 7.5 was added providing for the use of uncertificated shares or shares in book entry form as an alternative to stock certificates. This change was made to ensure that a stockholder could make electronic transfers through the Direct Registration System (“DRS”).
(vii) The old Section 7.5 was renumbered Section 7.6 and the authority of the Board to adopt regulations relating to the issue, transfer, conversion and registration of certificates of stock was extended to uncertificated stock or stock in book entry form.

(viii) Sections 2.2, 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.5, 5.6, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, 7.1 and 9.3 were amended to add the feminine pronouns. Only in Section 8.1 of the prior Bylaws were both the masculine and feminine pronouns used.
(ix) The following other changes were made for consistency and corrective purposes:
(A) Sections 2.2, 2.5, 3.7 and 5.4 were amended to have consistency in terminology (including capitalization).
(B) Section 3.6 was amended to correct the typographical error in the word “meting” to “meeting.”
(b) Not applicable.
