Attendance by a shareholder at a meeting is a waiver of notice of that meeting, except where the shareholder objects at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, or objects before a vote on an item of business because the item may not lawfully be considered at that meeting and does not participate in the consideration of the item at that meeting.

At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed. The shareholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, even though the withdrawal of a number of shareholders originally present leaves less than the proportion or number otherwise required for a quorum. SECTION 9. VOTING RIGHTS. A shareholder may cast a vote in person or by proxy. When a quorum is present at the time a meeting is convened, the vote of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any question present in person or by proxy shall decide such question unless the question is one upon which, by express provision of the applicable statute or the Articles of Incorporation, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. SECTION 10. MANNER OF VOTING. Each shareholder shall at every meeting of the shareholders be entitled to one vote in person or by proxy for each share of the capital stock 2 having voting power held by such shareholder, but no proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from its date, unless the proxy expressly provides for a longer period, and, except where the transfer books of the Corporation have been closed or a date has been fixed as a record date for the determination of its shareholders entitled to vote, no share of stock that has been transferred on the books of the Corporation within twenty (20) days next preceding any election of directors shall be voted on at such election for directors.

A director may give advance written consent or opposition to a proposal to be acted on at a meeting of the Board of Directors by actual delivery prior to the meeting of such advance written consent or opposition to the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer or a director who is present at the meeting. If the director is not present at the meeting, advance written consent or opposition to a proposal shall not constitute presence for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum, but consent or opposition shall be counted as a vote in favor of or against the proposal and shall be entered in the minutes or other record of action at the meeting, if the proposal acted on at the meeting is substantially the same or has substantially the same effect as the proposal to which the director has consented or objected. 4 SECTION 11.

If the proposed action need not be approved by the shareholders and the Articles of Incorporation so provide, action may be taken by written consent signed by the number of directors that would be required to take the same action at a meeting of the Board of Directors at which all directors were present. Such action shall be effective on the date on which the last signature is placed on such writing or writings, or such other effective date as is set forth therein. SECTION 14.
