SECTION 1.2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders of the Bank (the “stockholders”) may be called by the Board, the Executive Chairman (as defined below), the Chief Executive Officer or the President and shall be called upon the written request of the holders of record of not less than twenty percent of the outstanding shares of stock of the Bank entitled to vote at the meeting requested to be called. Such meetings of stockholders shall be held on such day and at such hour and at such place, within or without the State of New York (or may not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication), as may be fixed by the Board.

SECTION 1.3. Notice of Meetings. Notice of each meeting of stockholders shall be given in writing, personally or by mail, not less than ten nor more than fifty days before the date of the meeting, to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, and shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to have been given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the Bank.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice of meeting need not be given to any stockholder who submits a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy, whether before or after the meeting. The attendance of any stockholder at a meeting, in person or by proxy, without protesting prior to the conclusion of the meeting the lack of notice of such meeting, shall constitute a waiver of notice by him or her.

SECTION 1.4. Adjournments. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the Bank may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting.

SECTION 1.5. Quorum of Stockholders and Action by Stockholders.

The stockholders present may adjourn the meeting despite the absence of a quorum.

SECTION 1.6 Action without a Meeting. Any action that may be taken by the stockholders at a duly convened meeting may also be taken pursuant to waiver of notice thereof and upon the unanimous written consent of all stockholders of the Bank; such consent shall set forth the action so taken and shall be filed with the Secretary.
