If he or she is not present, or if there is none in office, the President or a Vice President shall preside, or, if none be present, a Chairman shall be elected by the meeting. The Secretary of the Company shall act as secretary of all the meetings, if present. If he or she is not present, the Chairman shall appoint a secretary of the meeting.

1.3 Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of shareholders shall be held on the third Tuesday in Mayof each year or on such date as may be designated by resolution of the Board of Directors from time to time for the purpose of electing directors and conducting such other business as may properly come before the meeting.

1.4 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders may be called by the Chairman, the President or the Board of Directors and shall be called by the Secretary upon demand of shareholders as required by law. Only business within the purpose or purposes described in the notice for a special meeting of shareholders may be conducted at the meeting.

1.5 Record Dates. The record date for determining shareholders entitled to demand a special meeting is the date the first shareholder signs the demand that the meeting be held.

Pursuant to that certain agreement and plan of merger, dated as of January 2, 2018, by and among Sedona Corp., Dominion Energy, Inc., and SCANA Corporation (the “Merger Agreement”), on January 1, 2019, Sedona Corp. merged with and into SCANA Corporation, with SCANA Corporation as the surviving entity. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the bylaws of Sedona Corp. became the bylaws of the surviving entity at the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement). As a result, following the Effective Time, these bylaws are the bylaws of SCANA Corporation.

Except as is provided in the preceding paragraph the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date to make a determination of shareholders for any purpose, such date to be not more than 70 days before the meeting or action requiring a determination of shareholders. If no such record date is set for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, then the record date shall be the close of business on the day before the date on which the first notice is given or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be.

When a determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made, such determination shall be effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the Board of Directors fixes a new 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.

1.6 Notice of Meetings. Written notice stating the place, day and hour of each meeting of shareholders and, in case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting (except when a different time is required in these Bylaws or by law) either personally or by mail, electronic mail,telecopy facsimile or other form of wire or wireless communication, or by private courier to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting and to such nonvoting shareholders as may be required by law. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be effective when deposited in first class United States mail with postage thereon prepaid and addressed to the shareholder at his or her address as it appears on the share transfer books of the Company. If given in any other manner, such notice shall be deemed to be effective (i) when given personally, by telephone or other oral communication and (ii) when received for written notices sent by a method other than by United States mail (as described in the preceding sentence).

If a meeting is adjourned to a different date, time or place, notice need not be given if the new date, time or place is announced at the meeting before adjournment. However, if a new record date for an adjourned meeting is fixed, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to shareholders as of the new record date unless a court provides otherwise.

1.7 Waiver of Notice; Attendance at Meeting. A shareholder may waive any notice required by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws before or after the date and time of the meeting that is the subject of such notice. The waiver shall be in writing or reproduced from an electronic transmission, be signed by the shareholder entitled to the notice and be delivered to the Secretary for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records.

A shareholder’s attendance at a meeting (i) waives objection to lack of notice or defective notice of the meeting unless the shareholder, at the beginning of the meeting, objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting and (ii) waives objection to consideration of a particular matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in the meeting notice unless the shareholder objects to considering the matter when it is presented.

1.8 Quorum and Voting Requirements. Unless otherwise required by law, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on a matter constitutes a quorum for action on that matter. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting, it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or shall be set for that adjourned meeting. If a quorum exists, action on a matter, other than the election of directors, is approved if the votes cast favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action unless a greater or different number of affirmative votes is required by law or the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Less than a quorum may adjourn a meeting.

1.9 Action Without Meeting. Action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the shareholders may be taken without a meeting and without action by the Board of Directors if the action is taken by all the shareholders entitled to vote on the action. The action shall be evidenced by one or more written consents describing the action taken, signed by all the shareholders entitled to vote on the action and delivered to the Secretary for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records. The form of written consent may include an electronic transmission. Action taken by unanimous consent shall be effective according to its terms when all consents are in the possession of the Company unless the consent specifies a different effective date, in which event the action taken shall be effective as of the date specified therein provided that the consent states the date of execution by each shareholder. A shareholder may withdraw a consent only by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Company prior to the time that all consents are in the possession of the Company.

If not otherwise fixed pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to take action without a meeting is the date the first shareholder signs the consent described in the preceding paragraph.

1.10 Inspectors of Election.The Chairman of the meeting may appoint one or more inspectors of election to determine the qualifications of voters, the validity of proxies and the results of ballots.

A director who is present at a meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors when corporate action is taken is considered to have assented to the action taken unless: (1) he or she objects at the beginning of the meeting (or promptly upon his or her arrival) to holding it or transacting business at the meeting; (2) his or her dissent or abstention from the action taken is entered in the minutes of the meeting; or (3) he or she delivers written notice of his or her dissent or abstention to the presiding officer of the meeting before its adjournment or to the corporation immediately after adjournment of the meeting.

The Board of Directors may permit any or all directors to participate in a regular or special meeting by or conduct the meeting through the use of any means of communication by which all directors participating may simultaneously hear each other during the meeting. A director participating in a meeting by this means is deemed to be present in person at the meeting.

2.10 Action Without Meeting. Action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting if the action is taken by all members of the Board. The action shall be evidenced by one or more written consents stating the action taken, signed by each director either before or after the action is taken and included in the minutes or filed with the corporate records. The form of written consent may include an electronic transmission. Action taken under this section shall be effective when the last director signs the consent unless the consent specifies a different effective date, in which event the action taken is effective as of the date specified therein, provided the consent states the date of execution by each director.
