the above-mentioned notice, and should the corporation fail to exercise its

remaining stockholders of the intention of the other stockholder to sell and the
refusal of the corporation to purchase, and they, the remaining stockholders,
shall have right or option of purchasing said stock during the last fifteen
(15) days of said thirty (30) days at its book value. The provisions of this

other director or shareholder, who may cast a vote of the absent director,
according to the written instructions, general and special of the absent
director.

                                   ARTICLE VI

     Without any necessity of action by the shareholders, previously authorized
but unissued of shares of stock of the corporation may be issued from time to
time by the board of directors, and any and all shares so issued and paid for,
shall be deemed fully paid stock and not liable to any further assessment or

ever requirement is higher, shall be sufficient for the purpose, without
necessity for a meeting of shareholders.
