INFRAREDVISION TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
ARTICLE I
CORPORATE OFFICES
1.1 PRINCIPAL OFFICE
The Board of Directors shall fix the location of the principal executive
office of the corporation at any place within or outside the State of
California. If the principal executive office is located outside California and
the corporation has one or more business offices in California, then the Board
of Directors shall fix and designate a principal business office in California.
1.2 OTHER OFFICES
The Board of Directors may at any time establish branch or subordinate
offices at any place or places.
ARTICLE II
MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS
2.1 PLACE OF MEETINGS
Meetings of shareholders shall be held at any place within or outside the
State of California designated by the Board of Directors. In the absence of any
such designation, shareholders' meetings shall be held at the principal
executive office of the corporation or at any place consented to in writing by
all persons entitled to vote at such meeting, given before or after the meeting
and filed with the Secretary of the corporation.
2.2 ANNUAL MEETING
An annual meeting of shareholders shall be held each year on a date and at
a time designated by the Board of Directors. At that meeting, directors shall be
elected. Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting of
shareholders.
2.3 SPECIAL MEETINGS
Special meetings of the shareholders may be called at any time, subject to
the provisions of Sections 2.4 and 2.5 of these Bylaws, by the Board of
Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the President or the holders of shares
entitled to cast not less than ten percent (10%) of the votes at that meeting.
If a special meeting is called by anyone other than the Board of Directors
or the President or the Chairman of the Board, then the request shall be in
writing, specifying the time of such meeting and the general nature of the
business proposed to be transacted, and shall be delivered personally or sent by
registered mail or by other written communication to the Chairman of the Board,
the President, any Vice President or the Secretary of the corporation. The
officer receiving the request forthwith shall cause notice to be given to the
shareholders entitled to vote, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.4
and 2.5 of these Bylaws, that a meeting will be held at the time requested by
the person or persons calling the meeting, so long as that time is not less than
thirty-five (35) nor more than sixty (60) days after the receipt of the request.
If the notice is not given within twenty (20) days after receipt of the request,
then the person or persons requesting the meeting may give the notice. Nothing
contained in this paragraph of this Section 2.3 shall be construed as limiting,
fixing or affecting the time when a meeting of shareholders called by action of
the Board of Directors may be held.
2.4 NOTICE OF SHAREHOLDERS' MEETINGS
All notices of meetings of shareholders shall be sent or otherwise given in
accordance with Section 2.5 of these Bylaws not less than ten (10) (or, if sent
by third-class mail pursuant to Section 2.5 of these Bylaws, not less than
thirty (30)) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to
each shareholder entitled to vote thereat. Such notice shall state the place,
date, and hour of the meeting and (i) in the case of a special meeting, the
general nature of the business to be transacted, and no business other than that
specified in the notice may be transacted, or (ii) in the case of the annual
meeting, those matters which the Board of Directors, at the time of the mailing
of the notice, intends to present for action by the shareholders, but, subject
to the provisions of the next paragraph of this Section 2.4, any proper matter
may be presented at the meeting for such action. The notice of any meeting at
which Directors are to be elected shall include the names of nominees intended
at the time of the notice to be presented by the Board for election.
If action is proposed to be taken at any meeting for approval of (i) a
contract or transaction in which a director has a direct or indirect financial
interest, pursuant to Section 310 of the California Corporations Code (the
"Code"), (ii) an amendment of the Articles of Incorporation, pursuant to Section
902 of the Code, (iii) a reorganization of the corporation, pursuant to Section
1201 of the Code, (iv) a voluntary dissolution of the corporation, pursuant to
Section 1900 of the Code, or (v) a distribution in dissolution other than in
accordance with the rights of any outstanding preferred shares, pursuant to
Section 2007 of the Code, then the notice shall also state the general nature of
that proposal.
2
2.5 MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE; AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE
Notice of a shareholders' meeting shall be given either personally or by
first-class mail, or, if the corporation has outstanding shares held of record
by five hundred (500) or more persons (determined as provided in Section 605 of
the Code) on the record date for the shareholders' meeting, notice may be sent
by third-class mail, or other means of written communication, addressed to the
shareholder at the address of the shareholder appearing on the books of the
corporation or given by the shareholder to the corporation for the purpose of
notice; or if no such address appears or is given, at the place where the
principal executive office of the corporation is located or by publication at
least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the
principal executive office is located. The notice shall be deemed to have been
given at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or sent by
other means of written communication.
If any notice (or any report referenced in Article VII of these Bylaws)
addressed to a shareholder at the address of such shareholder appearing on the
books of the corporation is returned to the corporation by the United States
Postal Service marked to indicate that the United States Postal Service is
unable to deliver the notice to the shareholder at that address, all future
notices or reports shall be deemed to have been duly given without further
mailing if the same shall be available to the shareholder upon written demand of
the shareholder at the principal executive office of the corporation for a
period of one (1) year from the date of the giving of the notice.
An affidavit of mailing of any notice or report in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 2.5, executed by the Secretary, Assistant Secretary
or any transfer agent, shall be prima facie evidence of the giving of the notice
or report.
2.6 QUORUM
Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation of the
corporation, a majority of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or
by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of the shareholders. The
shareholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is
present may continue to transact business until adjournment notwithstanding the
withdrawal of enough shareholders to leave less than a quorum, if any action
taken (other than adjournment) is approved by at least a majority of the shares
required to constitute a quorum.
In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of shareholders may be adjourned
from time to time by the vote of a majority of the shares represented either in
person or by proxy, but no other business may be transacted, except as provided
in the last sentence of the preceding paragraph.
2.7 ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE
Any shareholders' meeting, annual or special, whether or not a quorum is
present, may be adjourned from time to time by the vote of the majority of the
shares represented at that meeting, either in person or by proxy.
When any meeting of shareholders, either annual or special, is adjourned to
another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if its
time and place are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken.
However, if the adjournment is for more than forty-five (45) days from the date
set for the original meeting or if a new record date for the adjourned meeting
is fixed, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each shareholder
of record entitled to vote at the adjourned
3
meeting in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.4 and 2.5 of these
Bylaws. At any adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any business which
might have been transacted at the original meeting.
2.8 VOTING
The shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 of these Bylaws,
subject to the provisions of Sections 702 through 704 of the Code (relating to
voting shares held by a fiduciary, in the name of a corporation, or in joint
ownership).
Elections for directors and voting on any other matter at a shareholders'
meeting need not be by ballot unless a shareholder demands election by ballot at
the meeting and before the voting begins.
Except as provided in the last paragraph of this Section 2.8, or as may be
otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, each outstanding share,
regardless of class, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a
vote of the shareholders. Any holder of shares entitled to vote on any matter
may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the
remaining shares or may vote them against the proposal other than elections to
office, but, if the shareholder fails to specify the number of shares such
shareholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the
shareholder's approving vote is with respect to all shares which the shareholder
is entitled to vote.
The affirmative vote of the majority of the shares represented and voting
at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present (which shares voting
affirmatively also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum) shall
be the act of the shareholders, unless the vote of a greater number or voting by
classes is required by the Code or by the Articles of Incorporation.
At a shareholders' meeting at which directors are to be elected, a
shareholder shall be entitled to cumulate votes either (i) by giving one
candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected
multiplied by the number of votes to which that shareholder's shares are
normally entitled or (ii) by distributing the shareholder's votes on the same
principle among as many candidates as the shareholder thinks fit, if the
candidate or candidates' names have been placed in nomination prior to the
voting and the shareholder has given notice prior to the voting of the
shareholder's intention to cumulate the shareholder's votes. If any one
shareholder has given such a notice, then every shareholder entitled to vote may
cumulate votes for candidates in nomination. The candidates receiving the
highest number of affirmative votes, up to the number of directors to be
elected, shall be elected; votes against any candidate and votes withheld shall
have no legal effect.
2.9 VALIDATION OF MEETINGS; WAIVER OF NOTICE; CONSENT
The transactions of any meeting of shareholders, either annual or special,
however called and noticed, and wherever held, are as valid as though they had
been taken at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum be
present either in person or by proxy, and if, either before or after the
meeting, each of the persons entitled to vote, not present in person or by
proxy, signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of the
meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. Neither the business to be
transacted at nor the purpose of any annual or special meeting of shareholders
need be specified in any written waiver of notice or consent to the holding of
the meeting or approval of the minutes thereof, except that if action is taken
or proposed to be taken for approval of any of those matters specified in the
second paragraph of Section 2.4 of these Bylaws, the waiver of notice or consent
4
or approval shall state the general nature of the proposal. All such waivers,
consents, and approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part
of the minutes of the meeting.
Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of
and presence at that meeting, except when the person objects, at the beginning
of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not
lawfully called or convened and except that attendance at a meeting is not a
waiver of any right to object to the consideration of matters required by the
Code to be included in the notice of such meeting but not so included, if such
objection is expressly made at the meeting.
2.10 SHAREHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING
Any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of
shareholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice, if a
consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the
holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes
that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which
all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.
Directors may be elected by the written consent of the holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote for the election of
directors.
All such consents shall be maintained in the corporate records. Any
shareholder giving a written consent, or the shareholder's proxy holders, or a
transferee of the shares, or a personal representative of the shareholder, or
their respective proxy holders, may revoke the consent by a writing received by
the Secretary of the corporation before written consents of the number of shares
required to authorize the proposed action have been filed with the Secretary.
If the consents of all shareholders entitled to vote have not been
solicited in writing, the Secretary shall give prompt notice of any corporate
action approved by the shareholders without a meeting by less than unanimous
written consent to those shareholders entitled to vote who have not consented in
writing. Such notice shall be given in the manner specified in Section 2.5 of
these Bylaws. In the case of approval of (i) a contract or transaction in which
a director has a direct or indirect financial interest, pursuant to Section 310
of the Code, (ii) indemnification of a corporate "agent," pursuant to Section
317 of the Code, (iii) a reorganization of the corporation, pursuant to Section
1201 of the Code, and (iv) a distribution in dissolution other than in
accordance with the rights of outstanding preferred shares, pursuant to Section
2007 of the Code, the notice shall be given at least ten (10) days before the
consummation of any action authorized by that approval, unless the consents of
all shareholders entitled to vote have been solicited in writing.
2.11 RECORD DATE FOR SHAREHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING; GIVING CONSENTS
In order that the corporation may determine the shareholders entitled to
notice of any meeting or to vote, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a
record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10)
days prior to the date of such meeting nor more than sixty (60) days before any
other action. Shareholders at the close of business on the record date are
entitled to notice and to vote, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer
of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record date, except as
otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or the Code.
A determination of shareholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote
at a meeting of shareholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting
unless the Board of Directors fixes a new
5
record date for the adjourned meeting, but the Board of Directors shall fix a
new record date if the meeting is adjourned for more than forty-five (45) days
from the date set for the original meeting.
If the Board of Directors does not so fix a record date:
(a) The record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of or
to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall be at the close of business on the
business day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is
waived, at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on
which the meeting is held.
(b) The record date for determining shareholders entitled to give consent
to corporate action in writing without a meeting, (i) when no prior action by
the Board has been taken, shall be the day on which the first written consent is
given, or (ii) when prior action by the Board has been taken, shall be at the
close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating
thereto, or the sixtieth (60th) day prior to the date of such other action,
whichever is later.
The record date for any other purpose shall be as provided in Section 8.1
of these Bylaws.
2.12 PROXIES
Every person entitled to vote for directors, or on any other matter, shall
have the right to do so either in person or by one or more agents authorized by
a written proxy signed by the person and filed with the Secretary of the
corporation. A proxy shall be deemed signed if the shareholder's name or other
authorization is placed on the proxy (whether by manual signature, typewriting,
telegraphic or electronic transmission or otherwise) by the shareholder or the
shareholder's attorney-in-fact. A validly executed proxy which does not state
that it is irrevocable shall continue in full force and effect unless (i) the
person who executed the proxy revokes it prior to the time of voting by
delivering a writing to the corporation stating that the proxy is revoked or by
executing a subsequent proxy and presenting it to the meeting or by attendance
at such meeting and voting in person, or (ii) written notice of the death or
incapacity of the maker of that proxy is received by the corporation before the
vote pursuant to that proxy is counted; provided, however, that no proxy shall
be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months from the date thereof,
unless otherwise provided in the proxy. The dates contained on the forms of
proxy presumptively determine the order of execution, regardless of the postmark
dates on the envelopes in which they are mailed. The revocability of a proxy
that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the
provisions of Sections 705(e) and 705(f) of the Code.
2.13 INSPECTORS OF ELECTION
In advance of any meeting of shareholders, the Board of Directors may
appoint inspectors of election to act at the meeting and any adjournment
thereof. If inspectors of election are not so appointed or designated or if any
persons so appointed fail to appear or refuse to act, then the Chairman of the
meeting may, and on the request of any shareholder or a shareholder's proxy
shall, appoint inspectors of election (or persons to replace those who so fail
to appear) at the meeting. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or
two (2). If appointed at a meeting on the request of one (1) or more
shareholders or proxies, the majority of shares represented in person or by
proxy shall determine whether one (1) or three (3) inspectors are to be
appointed.
The inspectors of election shall determine the number of shares outstanding
and the voting power of each, the shares represented at the meeting, the
existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity,
6
and effect of proxies, receive votes, ballots or consents, hear and determine
all challenges and questions in any way arising in connection with the right to
vote, count and tabulate all votes or consents, determine when the polls shall
close, determine the result and do any other acts that may be proper to conduct
the election or vote with fairness to all shareholders.
ARTICLE III
DIRECTORS
3.1 POWERS
Subject to the provisions of the Code and any limitations in the Articles
of Incorporation and these Bylaws relating to action required to be approved by
the shareholders or by the outstanding shares, the business and affairs of the
corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or
under the direction of the Board of Directors. The Board may delegate the
management of the day-today operation of the business of the corporation to a
management company or other person provided that the business and affairs of the
corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised under
the ultimate direction of the Board.
3.2 NUMBER OF DIRECTORS
The authorized number of directors of the corporation shall be the number
of directors determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the Board of
Directors or by the shareholders. Effective as of the Effective Time, the number
of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be one (1). No reduction
of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any
director before that director's term of office expires or such director is
otherwise removed from office in accordance with applicable law.
No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of
removing any director before that director's term of office expires.
3.3 ELECTION AND TERM OF OFFICE OF DIRECTORS
At each annual meeting of shareholders, directors shall be elected to hold
office until the next annual meeting. Each director, including a director
elected to fill a vacancy, shall hold office until the expiration of the term
for which elected and until a successor has been elected and qualified, except
in the case of the death, resignation, or removal of such a director.
3.4 REMOVAL
The entire Board of Directors or any individual director may be removed
from office without cause by the affirmative vote of a majority of the
outstanding shares entitled to vote on such removal.
3.5 RESIGNATION AND VACANCIES
Any director may resign effective upon giving oral or written notice to the
Chairman of the Board, the President, the Secretary or the Board of Directors,
unless the notice specifies a later time for
7
the effectiveness of such resignation. If the resignation of a director is
effective at a future time, the Board of Directors may elect a successor to take
office when the resignation becomes effective.
Vacancies on the Board of Directors may be filled by a majority of the
remaining directors (including a sole remaining director); however, a vacancy
created by the removal of a director by vote or written consent of the
shareholders or by court order may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the shares represented and voting at a duly held meeting at which a
quorum is present or by the written consent of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares entitled to vote for the election of directors. Each director
so elected shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders
and until a successor has been elected and qualified, or until his or her death,
resignation or removal.
A vacancy or vacancies in the Board of Directors shall be deemed to exist
(i) in the event of the death, resignation or removal of any director, (ii) if
the Board of Directors by resolution declares vacant the office of a director
who has been declared of unsound mind by an order of court or convicted of a
felony, (iii) if the authorized number of directors is increased, or (iv) if the
shareholders fail, at any meeting of the shareholders at which any director or
directors are elected, to elect the full authorized number of directors to be
elected at that meeting.
The shareholders may elect a director or directors at any time to fill any
vacancy or vacancies not filled by the directors.
3.6 PLACE OF MEETINGS; MEETINGS BY TELEPHONE
Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held at any place within
or outside the State of California that has been designated from time to time by
resolution of the Board. In the absence of such a designation, regular meetings
shall be held at the principal executive office of the corporation. Special
meetings of the Board may be held at any place within or outside the State of
California that has been designated in the notice of the meeting or, if not
stated in the notice or if there is no notice, at the principal executive office
of the corporation.
Members of the Board may participate in a meeting through the use of
conference telephone or similar communications equipment, so long as all
directors participating in such meeting can hear one another. Participation in a
meeting pursuant to this paragraph constitutes presence in person at such
meeting.
3.7 REGULAR MEETINGS
Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice if
the time and place of such meetings are fixed by the Board of Directors.
3.8 SPECIAL MEETINGS; NOTICE
Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, special meetings of
the Board of Directors for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by
the Chairman of the Board, the President, any Vice President, the Secretary or
any one (1) director.
Notice of the time and place of special meetings shall be delivered
personally or by telephone to each director or sent by first-class mail,
telegram, charges prepaid, or by telecopier, addressed to each director at that
director's address as it is shown on the records of the corporation. If the
notice is mailed, it shall be deposited in the United States mail at least four
(4) days before the time of the holding of the
8
meeting. If the notice is delivered personally or by telephone or by telecopier
or telegram, it shall be delivered personally or by telephone or by telecopier
or to the telegraph company at least forty-eight (48) hours before the time of
the holding of the meeting. Any oral notice given personally or by telephone may
be communicated either to the director or to a person at the office of the
director who the person giving the notice has reason to believe will promptly
communicate it to the director. The notice need not specify the purpose of the
meeting.
3.9 QUORUM
A majority of the authorized number of directors shall constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business, except to adjourn as provided in Section 3.10
of these Bylaws. Every act or decision done or made by a majority of the
directors present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present is the act
of the Board of Directors, subject to the provisions of Section 310 of the Code
(as to approval of contracts or transactions in which a director has a direct or
indirect material financial interest), Section 311 of the Code (as to
appointment of committees), Section 317(e) of the Code (as to indemnification of
directors), the Articles of Incorporation, and other applicable law.
A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact
business notwith-standing the withdrawal of directors, if any action taken is
approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for such meeting.
3.10 WAIVER OF NOTICE
Notice of a meeting need not be given to any director who signs a waiver of
notice or a consent to holding the meeting or an approval of the minutes
thereof, whether before or after the meeting, or who attends the meeting without
protesting, prior thereto or at its commencement, the lack of notice to such
director. All such waivers, consents, and approvals shall be filed with the
corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting. A waiver of
notice need not specify the purpose of any regular or special meeting of the
Board of Directors.

the adjourned meeting to the directors who were not present at the time of the
adjournment.
3.13 BOARD ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING
Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board of Directors may
be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board individually or
collectively consent in writing to such action. Such written consent or consents
shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board. Such action by
written consent shall have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote of the
Board of Directors.
9
3.14 FEES AND COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
Directors and members of committees may receive such compensation, if any,
for their services and such reimbursement of expenses as may be fixed or
determined by resolution of the Board of Directors. This Section 3.13 shall not
be construed to preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other
capacity as an officer, agent, employee or otherwise and receiving compensation
for those services.
3.15 APPROVAL OF LOANS TO OFFICERS
If these Bylaws have been approved by the corporation's shareholders in
accordance with the Code, the corporation may, upon the approval of the Board of
Directors alone, make loans of money or property to, or guarantee the
obligations of, any officer of the corporation or of its parent, if any, whether
or not a director, or adopt an employee benefit plan or plans authorizing such
loans or guaranties provided that (i) the Board of Directors determines that
such a loan or guaranty or plan may reasonably be expected to benefit the
corporation, (ii) the corporation has outstanding shares held of record by 100
or more persons (determined as provided in Section 605 of the Code) on the date
of approval by the Board of Directors, and (iii) the approval of the Board of
Directors is by a vote sufficient without counting the vote of any interested
director or directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the corporation shall have
the power to make loans permitted by the Code.

of a majority of the authorized number of directors. Any such committee shall
have authority to act in the manner and to the extent provided in the resolution

to:
(a) The approval of any action which, under the Code, also requires
shareholders' approval or approval of the outstanding shares.

(place of meetings), Section 3.6 (regular meetings), Section 3.7 (special
meetings and notice), Section 3.8 (quorum), Section 3.9 (waiver of notice),
Section 3.10 (adjournment), Section 3.11 (notice of adjournment), and Section
3.12 (action without meeting), with such changes in the context of those Bylaws
as are necessary to substitute the committee and its members for the Board of
Directors and its members; provided, however, that the time of regular meetings
of committees may be determined either by resolution of the Board of Directors
or by resolution of the committee, that special meetings of committees may also
be called by resolution of the Board of Directors, and that notice of special
meetings of committees shall also be given to all alternate members, who shall

chosen by the Board of Directors, by any officer upon whom such power of removal
may be conferred by the Board of Directors.
Any officer may resign at any time by giving written notice to the
corporation. Any resignation shall take effect at the date of the receipt of
that notice or at any later time specified in that notice; and, unless otherwise

ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS. EMPLOYEES,
AND OTHER AGENTS
6.1 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS
The corporation shall, to the maximum extent and in the manner permitted by
the Code, indemnify each of its directors against expenses (as defined in
Section 317(a) of the Code), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts
actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding (as defined
in Section 317(a) of the Code), arising by reason of the fact that such person
is or was a director of the corporation. For purposes of this Article VI, a
"director" of the corporation includes any person (i) who is or was a director
of the corporation, (ii) who is or was serving at the request of the corporation
as a director of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, or (iii) who was a director of a corporation
which was a predecessor corporation of the corporation or of another enterprise
at the request of such predecessor corporation.
6.2 INDEMNIFICATION OF OTHERS
The corporation shall have the power, to the extent and in the manner
permitted by the Code, to indemnify each of its employees, officers, and agents
(other than directors) against expenses (as defined in Section 317(a) of the
Code), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with any proceeding (as defined in Section 317(a) of the
Code), arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an employee,
officer, or agent of the corporation. For purposes of this Article VI, an
"employee" or "officer" or "agent" of the corporation (other than a director)
includes any person (i) who is or was an employee, officer, or agent of the
corporation, (ii) who is or was serving
12
at the request of the corporation as an employee, officer, or agent of another
foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, or (iii) who was an employee, officer, or agent of a corporation
which was a predecessor corporation of the corporation or of another enterprise
at the request of such predecessor corporation.
6.3 PAYMENT OF EXPENSES IN ADVANCE
Expenses and attorneys' fees incurred in defending any civil or criminal
action or proceeding for which indemnification is required pursuant to Section
6.1, or if otherwise authorized by the Board of Directors, shall be paid by the
corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding
upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnified party to repay
such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the indemnified party is
not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Article VI.
6.4 INDEMNITY NOT EXCLUSIVE
The indemnification provided by this Article VI shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be
entitled under any Bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or directors or
otherwise, both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding such office. The rights to indemnity hereunder shall
continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or
agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators
of the person.
6.5 INSURANCE INDEMNIFICATION
The corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation against any liability asserted against or incurred by such person in
such capacity or arising out of that person's status as such, whether or not the
corporation would have the power to indemnify that person against such liability
under the provisions of this Article VI.
6.6 CONFLICTS
No indemnification or advance shall be made under this Article VI, except
where such indemnification or advance is mandated by law or the order, judgment
or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, in any circumstance where it
appears:
(1) That it would be inconsistent with a provision of the Articles of
Incorporation, these Bylaws, a resolution of the shareholders or an agreement in
effect at the time of the accrual of the alleged cause of the action asserted in
the proceeding in which the expenses were incurred or other amounts were paid,
which prohibits or otherwise limits indemnification; or
(2) That it would be inconsistent with any condition expressly imposed by a
court in approving a settlement.
13
6.7 RIGHT TO BRING SUIT
If a claim under this Article is not paid in full by the corporation within
90 days after a written claim has been received by the corporation (either
because the claim is denied or because no determination is made), the claimant
may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the
unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant
shall also be entitled to be paid the expenses of prosecuting such claim. The
corporation shall be entitled to raise as a defense to any such action that the
claimant has not met the standards of conduct that make it permissible under the
Code for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the claim. Neither the
failure of the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal
counsel, or its shareholders) to have made a determination prior to the
commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is permissible
in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of
conduct, if any, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) that the
claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to
such action or create a presumption for the purposes of such action that the
claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
6.8 INDEMNITY AGREEMENTS
The Board of Directors is authorized to enter into a contract with any
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or any person who is or
was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, including employee benefit plans, or any person who was a director,
officer, employee or agent of a corporation which was a predecessor corporation
of the corporation or of another enterprise at the request of such predecessor
corporation, providing for indemnification rights equivalent to or, if the Board
of Directors so determines and to the extent permitted by applicable law,
greater than, those provided for in this Article VI.
6.9 AMENDMENT, REPEAL OR MODIFICATION
Any amendment, repeal or modification of any provision of this Article VI
shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or agent of the
corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or modification.
ARTICLE VII
RECORDS AND REPORTS
7.1 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF SHARE REGISTER
The corporation shall keep either at its principal executive office or at
the office of its transfer agent or registrar (if either be appointed), as
determined by resolution of the Board of Directors, a record of its shareholders
listing the names and addresses of all shareholders and the number and class of
shares held by each shareholder.
A shareholder or shareholders of the corporation holding at least five
percent (5%) in the aggregate of the outstanding voting shares of the
corporation or who hold at least one percent (1%) of
14
such voting shares and have filed a Schedule 14B with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the election of directors, shall
have an absolute right to do either or both of the following (i) inspect and
copy the record of shareholders' names, addresses, and shareholdings during
usual business hours upon five (5) days' prior written demand upon the
corporation, or (ii) obtain from the transfer agent for the corporation, upon
written demand and upon the tender of such transfer agent's usual charges for
such list (the amount of which charges shall be stated to the shareholder by the
transfer agent upon request), a list of the shareholders' names and addresses
who are entitled to vote for the election of directors, and their shareholdings,
as of the most recent record date for which it has been compiled or as of a date
specified by the shareholder subsequent to the date of demand. The list shall be
made available on or before the later of five (5) business days after the demand
is received or the date specified therein as the date as of which the list is to
be compiled.
The record of shareholders shall also be open to inspection and copying by
any shareholder or holder of a voting trust certificate at any time during usual
business hours upon written demand on the corporation, for a purpose reasonably
related to the holder's interests as a shareholder or holder of a voting trust
certificate.
Any inspection and copying under this Section 7.1 may be made in person or
by an agent or attorney of the shareholder or holder of a voting trust
certificate making the demand.
7.2 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF BYLAWS
The corporation shall keep at its principal executive office or, if its
principal executive office is not in the State of California, at its principal
business office in California, the original or a copy of these Bylaws as amended
to date, which shall be open to inspection by the shareholders at all reasonable
times during office hours. If the principal executive office of the corporation
is outside the State of California and the corporation has no principal business
office in such state, then it shall, upon the written request of any
shareholder, furnish to such shareholder a copy of these Bylaws as amended to
date.
7.3 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF OTHER CORPORATE RECORDS
The accounting books and records and the minutes of proceedings of the
shareholders and the Board of Directors, and committees of the Board of
Directors shall be kept at such place or places as are designated by the Board
of Directors or, in absence of such designation, at the principal executive
office of the corporation. The minutes shall be kept in written form, and the
accounting books and records shall be kept either in written form or in any
other form capable of being converted into written form.
The minutes and accounting books and records shall be open to inspection
upon the written demand on the corporation of any shareholder or holder of a
voting trust certificate at any reasonable time during usual business hours, for
a purpose reasonably related to such holder's interests as a shareholder or as
the holder of a voting trust certificate. Such inspection by a shareholder or
holder of a voting trust certificate may be made in person or by an agent or
attorney and the right of inspection includes the right to copy and make
extracts. Such rights of inspection shall extend to the records of each
subsidiary corporation of the corporation.
7.4 INSPECTION BY DIRECTORS
Every director shall have the absolute right at any reasonable time to
inspect and copy all books, records, and documents of every kind and to inspect
the physical properties of the corporation and each of
15
its subsidiary corporations, domestic or foreign. Such inspection by a director
may be made in person or by an agent or attorney and the right of inspection
includes the right to copy and make extracts.
7.5 ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS; WAIVER
The Board of Directors shall cause an annual report to be sent to the
shareholders not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of the
fiscal year adopted by the corporation. Such report shall be sent to the
shareholders at least fifteen (15) (or, if sent by third-class mail, thirty-five
(35)) days prior to the annual meeting of shareholders to be held during the
next fiscal year and in the manner specified in Section 2.5 of these Bylaws for
giving notice to shareholders of the corporation.
The annual report shall contain a balance sheet as of the end of the fiscal
year and an income statement and statement of changes in financial position for
the fiscal year, accompanied by any report thereon of independent accountants
or, if there is no such report, the certificate of an authorized officer of the
corporation that the statements were prepared without audit from the books and
records of the corporation.
The foregoing requirement of an annual report shall be waived so long
as the shares of the corporation are held by fewer than one hundred (100)
holders of record.
7.6 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
If no annual report for the fiscal year has been sent to shareholders, then
the corporation shall, upon the written request of any shareholder made more
than one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of such fiscal year, deliver
or mail to the person making the request, within thirty (30) days thereafter, a
copy of a balance sheet as of the end of such fiscal year and an income
statement and statement of changes in financial position for such fiscal year.
A shareholder or shareholders holding at least five percent (5%) of the
outstanding shares of any class of the corporation may make a written request to
the corporation for an income statement of the corporation for the three-month,
six-month or nine-month period of the current fiscal year ended more than thirty
(30) days prior to the date of the request and a balance sheet of the
corporation as of the end of that period. The statements shall be delivered or
mailed to the person making the request within thirty (30) days thereafter. A
copy of the statements shall be kept on file in the principal office of the
corporation for twelve (12) months and it shall be exhibited at all reasonable
times to any shareholder demanding an examination of the statements or a copy
shall be mailed to the shareholder. If the corporation has not sent to the
shareholders its annual report for the last fiscal year, the statements referred
to in the first paragraph of this Section 7.6 shall likewise be delivered or
mailed to the shareholder or shareholders within thirty (30) days after the
request.
The quarterly income statements and balance sheets referred to in this
section shall be accompanied by the report thereon, if any, of any independent
accountants engaged by the corporation or the certificate of an authorized
officer of the corporation that the financial statements were prepared without
audit from the books and records of the corporation.
7.7 REPRESENTATION OF SHARES OF OTHER CORPORATIONS
The Chairman of the Board or the Secretary of this corporation, or any
other person authorized by the Board of Directors, is authorized to vote,
represent, and exercise on behalf of this corporation all
16
rights incident to any and all shares of any other corporation or corporations
standing in the name of this corporation. The authority herein granted may be
exercised either by such person directly or by any other person authorized to do
so by proxy or power of attorney duly executed by such person having the
authority.
ARTICLE VIII
GENERAL MATTERS
8.1 RECORD DATE FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN NOTICE AND VOTING
For purposes of determining the shareholders entitled to receive payment of
any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or entitled to
exercise any rights in respect of any other lawful action (other than with
respect to notice or voting at a shareholders meeting or action by shareholders
by written consent without a meeting), the Board of Directors may fix, in
advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to
any such action. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the
record date are entitled to receive the dividend, distribution or allotment of
rights, or to exercise the rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any
transfer of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record date,
except as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or the Code.
If the Board of Directors does not so fix a record date, then the record
date for determining shareholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of
business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto or
the sixtieth (60th) day prior to the date of that action, whichever is later.
8.2 CHECKS; DRAFTS; EVIDENCES OF INDEBTEDNESS
From time to time, the Board of Directors shall determine by resolution
which person or persons may sign or endorse all checks, drafts, other orders for
payment of money, notes or other evidences of indebtedness that are issued in
the name of or payable to the corporation, and only the persons so authorized
shall sign or endorse those instruments.
8.3 CORPORATE CONTRACTS AND INSTRUMENTS: HOW EXECUTED
The Board of Directors, except as otherwise provided in these Bylaws, may
authorize any officer or officers, or agent or agents, to enter into any
contract or execute any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the
corporation; such authority may be general or confined to specific instances.
Unless so authorized or ratified by the Board of Directors or within the agency
power of an officer, no officer, agent or employee shall have any power or
authority to bind the corporation by any contract or engagement or to pledge its
credit or to render it liable for any purpose or for any amount.
8.4 CERTIFICATES FOR SHARES
A certificate or certificates for shares of the corporation shall be issued
to each shareholder when any of such shares are fully paid. The Board of
Directors may authorize the issuance of certificates for shares partly paid
provided that these certificates shall state the total amount of the
consideration to be paid for them and the amount actually paid. All certificates
shall be signed in the name of the corporation
17
by the Chairman of the Board or the Vice Chairman of the Board or the President
or a Vice President and by the Chief Financial Officer or an Assistant Treasurer
or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, certifying the number of shares and
the class or series of shares owned by the shareholder. Any or all of the
signatures on the certificate may be by facsimile.
In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose
facsimile signature has been placed on a certificate has ceased to be such
officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may
be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if that person were an
officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.
8.5 LOST CERTIFICATES
Except as provided in this Section 8.5, no new certificates for shares
shall be issued to replace a previously issued certificate unless the latter is
surrendered to the corporation or its transfer agent or registrar and cancelled
at the same time. The Board of Directors may, in case any share certificate or
certificate for any other security is lost, stolen or destroyed (as evidenced by
a written affidavit or affirmation of such fact), authorize the issuance of
replacement certificates on such terms and conditions as the Board may require;
the Board may require indemnification of the corporation secured by a bond or
other adequate security sufficient to protect the corporation against any claim
that may be made against it, including any expense or liability, on account of
the alleged loss, theft or destruction of the certificate or the issuance of the
replacement certificate.
8.6 CONSTRUCTION; DEFINITIONS
Unless the context requires otherwise, the general provisions, rules of
construction, and definitions in the Code shall govern the construction of these
Bylaws. Without limiting the generality of this provision, the singular number
includes the plural, the plural number includes the singular, and the term
"person" includes both a corporation and a natural person.
ARTICLE IX
AMENDMENTS
9.1 AMENDMENT BY SHAREHOLDERS
New Bylaws may be adopted or these Bylaws may be amended or repealed by the
vote or written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares
entitled to vote; provided, however, that if the Articles of Incorporation of
the corporation set forth the number of authorized Directors of the corporation,
then the authorized number of Directors may be changed only by an amendment of
the Articles of Incorporation.
9.2 AMENDMENT BY DIRECTORS
Subject to the rights of the shareholders as provided in Section 9.1 of
these Bylaws, Bylaws, other than a Bylaw or an amendment of a Bylaw changing the

pursuant to a Bylaw providing for a variable number of directors), may be
