For the purposes hereof, an “affiliate” is any person (including a corporation, partnership, trust, estate or individual) who directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the person specified. “Control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise; and in computing the percentage of outstanding voting stock beneficially owned by any person the shares outstanding and the shares owned shall be determined as of the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to vote or express consent with respect to such proposal. The stockholder vote, if any, required for mergers, consolidations, sales or exchanges of assets or issuance of stock or other securities not expressly provided for in this Article, shall be such as may be required by applicable law. A “substantial part” of the corporation’s assets shall mean assets comprising more than ten (10%) percent
of the book value or fair market value of the total assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.
