ARTICLE 1 - STOCKHOLDERS
1.1Place of Meetings.  All meetings of stockholders shall be held at such time and place,
within or without the State of Delaware, or, if so determined by the Board of Directors in its sole
discretion, at no place (but rather by means of remote communication), as may be designated
from time to time by the Board of Directors, or, if not so designated, at the principal executive
office of the corporation.  The Board of Directors may postpone, reschedule or cancel at any time
and for any reason any previously scheduled special or annual meeting of stockholders before or
after the notice for such meeting has been sent to the stockholders.
1.2Annual Meeting.  The annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors and for
the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting shall be
held at such date and time as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice of
the meeting.  If no annual meeting is held in accordance with the foregoing provisions, a special
meeting may be held in lieu of the annual meeting for such business as may be properly brought
at an annual meeting, and any action taken at that special meeting shall have the same effect as if
it had been taken at the annual meeting, and in such case, all references in these By-Laws to the
annual meeting of stockholders shall be deemed to refer to such special meeting.
1.3Special Meeting.
AA special meeting of stockholders of the corporation may be called at any time by
vote of a majority of the Board of Directors.  Subject to the terms of any class or series of
preferred stock of the corporation, and subject to the applicable provisions of this Section 1.3, the
Secretary of the corporation shall call a special meeting upon the written request (the “Meeting
Request”) of the record holders owning in the aggregate more than 35.0% of the voting power of
the outstanding capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote at such a meeting, delivered to the
Secretary of the corporation.  Upon determination of the time and date of the meeting, the
Secretary shall cause a notice of meeting to be given to the stockholders entitled to vote at the
meeting in accordance with Section 1.4 of these By-Laws.  In fixing a date and time for any
special meeting requested by stockholders, the Board of Directors may consider such factors as it
deems relevant, including without limitation, the nature of the matters to be considered, the facts
and circumstances related to any request for a meeting, and any plan of the Board of Directors to
call an annual meeting or special meeting.
BA stockholder may not submit a Meeting Request unless such stockholder is a
holder of record of capital stock of the corporation on the record date fixed to determine the
stockholders entitled to request the call of a special meeting.  Any stockholder seeking to cause
the corporation to call a special meeting to transact business shall, by written notice to the
Secretary of the corporation, request that the Board of Directors fix a record date.  A written
request to fix a record date shall include all of the information that must be included in a Meeting
Request, as set forth in paragraph C of this Section 1.3.  The Board of Directors may, within ten
(10) days of the Secretary’s receipt of a written request to fix a record date containing all the
information required by or pursuant to this paragraph, fix a record date to determine the
stockholders entitled to request the call of a special meeting, which date shall not precede, and
shall not be more than ten (10) days after, the date upon which the resolution fixing the record
date is adopted. If a record date is not so fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date shall be
-2-
the date that the first Meeting Request is received by the Secretary with respect to the proposed
business to be conducted at a special meeting.
CAny Meeting Request shall be signed by one or more stockholders, or their duly
authorized agent, that request the special meeting and shall set forth:
(a)a description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting
(including any nominees for election or re-election as director, if applicable), the text of
the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration
and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend these By-Laws or the
Certificate of Incorporation, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for
conducting such business at the meeting, and any material interest in such business of
each signing stockholder; and
(b)all of the information that would be required by Section 1.12, in the case
of one or more director nominations, or Section 1.13, in the case of business other than
director nominations, and all updates and supplements to such information required by
Section 1.14 of these By-Laws.
The stockholder who submitted the Meeting Request may revoke its Meeting Request at any
time by written revocation delivered to the Secretary.  If, following such revocation, the
remaining stockholders requesting a special meeting hold in the aggregate 35.0% or less of the
voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote at such a
meeting, the Board of Directors shall have the discretion to determine whether or not to proceed
with the special meeting, including whether to cancel the special meeting.  Except as otherwise
provided by law or these By-Laws, the chair of the meeting shall have the power and duty to
determine whether a nomination or any other business proposed to be brought before the
stockholder-requested meeting was made or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Section 1.3.  Notwithstanding anything in these By-Laws to the
contrary, if the stockholder, any Stockholder Associated Person (as defined in Section 1.14) or
any Proposed Nominee (as defined in Section 1.12), as applicable, acts contrary to any
representation, certification or agreement required by this Section 1.3 (including any
representation, certification or agreement required by Section 1.12 or 1.13, as applicable) or
otherwise fails to comply with this Section 1.3 (or any law, rule or regulation identified in this
Section 1.3, Section 1.12 or Section 1.13, as applicable) or provides false or misleading
information to the corporation, any such business proposal shall not be transacted and any such
nomination(s) shall be disregarded (and any such nominee shall be disqualified from standing for
election or re-election), notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been
received by the corporation.  If none of the stockholders who submitted a Meeting Request (or a
qualified representative (as defined in Section 1.14) thereof) appears at the stockholder-requested
special meeting to present the business to be brought before such meeting (including any
nominations for election or reelection as directors, if applicable) that were specified in the
Meeting Request, the corporation need not present the business for a vote at the meeting (and any
such nominee shall be disqualified from standing for election or re-election as a director).  For
the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of paragraphs A through F of Section 1.14 shall apply to
any stockholder-requested special meeting called pursuant to this Section 1.3.
-3-
DThe Board of Directors shall have the authority to determine not to call a special
meeting requested by stockholders if (a) the Board of Directors has called or calls an annual or
special meeting of stockholders to be held not more than ninety (90) days after the date the
corporation receives a Meeting Request from the holders of the requisite percentage of capital
stock (the “Request Delivery Date”) and an identical or substantially similar item (as determined
in good faith by the Board of Directors) will be submitted for stockholder approval at such
annual or special meeting (such an identical or substantially similar item, a “Similar Item”); (b) if
a Similar Item has been presented at the most recent annual meeting or at any special meeting
held within twelve (12) months prior to the Request Delivery Date; provided that, for purposes of
this clause (b), the removal of directors and the filling of vacancies shall not be considered
identical or substantially similar to the election of directors at the preceding annual meeting; (c)
the Meeting Request relates to an item of business that is not a proper subject for stockholder
action under applicable law; or (d) the Meeting Request was made in violation of Regulation
14A under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder (the “1934 Act”), to the extent applicable, or other applicable law.
EThe Board of Directors shall fix the date and time of any stockholder-requested
special meeting, and the date of such special meeting shall be no more than ninety (90) days after
the date on which the Board of Directors fixes the date of the special meeting.  Business
transacted at a stockholder-requested special meeting shall be limited to: (i) the business stated in
the valid Meeting Request received from the holders of the requisite percentage of capital stock
of the corporation; and (ii) any additional business that the Board of Directors determines to
include in the corporation’s notice of meeting.
1.4Notice of Meetings.  Except as otherwise provided by law, written notice of each meeting
of stockholders, whether annual or special, shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than
sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at
such meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the
meeting.  The notices of all meetings shall state the place, if any, and the date of the meeting, the
means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be
deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the
stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for
determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and the hour of the meeting.  The
notice of a special meeting shall state, in addition, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting
is called.  Notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be deemed given as provided in
Section 232 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).  Waiver of
notice for any meeting of stockholders shall be deemed given as provided in Section 229 of the
DGCL.
1.5Voting List.  The corporation shall prepare, no later than the tenth (10th) day before every
meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders of record entitled to vote at the
meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the
number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder; provided, however, if the record
date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the
meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth (10th) day
before the meeting date. Nothing contained in this Section shall require the corporation to
include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list
-4-
shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for
a period of ten (10) days, ending on the day before the meeting date: (a) on a reasonably
accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is
provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal
place of business of the corporation. If the corporation determines to make the list available on
an electronic network, the corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information
is available only to stockholders of the corporation.
1.6Quorum.  At each annual or special meeting of stockholders, except as otherwise required
by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, the holders of a majority of the voting
power of the shares of capital stock of the corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote
at the meeting, present in person, by means of remote communication, if authorized, or
represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.  If a quorum shall
not be present or represented at any meeting of stockholders, either the chair of the meeting or
the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have the
power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, in the manner provided in Section 1.7 of these
By-Laws, until a quorum shall be present or represented.  A quorum, once established, shall not
be broken by the subsequent withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum.
1.7Adjournments.  Any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned or recessed, whether or
not a quorum is present, to any other time and to the same or any other place (if any) by the
affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy
at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon, or by the chair of the meeting.  When a meeting is
adjourned to another time or place (including an adjournment taken to address a technical failure
to convene or continue a meeting using remote communication), notice need not be given of such
adjourned or recessed meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote
communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in
person and vote at such adjourned or recessed meeting are (A) announced at the meeting at
which the adjournment is taken, (B) displayed during the time scheduled for the meeting, on the
same electronic network used to enable stockholders and proxy holders to participate in the
meeting by means of remote communication, or (C) set forth in the notice of such meeting given
in accordance with Section 1.4 of these By-Laws. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30)
days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to
vote at the meeting.  If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote
is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix as the record date of
determining stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date
as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and shall
give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such
adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.  At the
adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at
the original meeting.
1.8Voting.  Each stockholder shall have one vote for each share of capital stock entitled to
vote and held of record by such stockholder, unless otherwise provided by the DGCL, the
Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws.
-5-
1.9Proxy Representation.  Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or
to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize
another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy filed with the Secretary of the
corporation prior to or at the meeting.  No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years
from its date unless such proxy expressly provides for a longer period.  A duly executed proxy
shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and, if, and only as long as, it is coupled with
an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.  A proxy may be made irrevocable
regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an
interest in the corporation generally.  The authorization of a proxy may but need not be limited to
specified action; provided, however, that if a proxy limits its authorization to a meeting or
meetings of stockholders, unless otherwise specifically provided, such proxy shall entitle the
holder thereof to vote at any adjourned session but shall not be valid after the final adjournment
thereof.
1.10Inspectors at Meetings of Stockholders.  The corporation, in advance of any meeting of
stockholders, may, and shall if required by law, appoint one or more inspectors, who may be
employees of the corporation, to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof and make a
written report thereof.  The corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate
inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act.  If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a
meeting, the chair of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. 
Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an
oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best
of his or her ability.  The inspectors shall (a) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the
voting power of each, (b) determine the shares represented at the meeting and the validity of
proxies and ballots, (c) count all votes and ballots, (d) determine and retain for a reasonable
period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors
and (e) certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting and their
count of all votes and ballots.  The inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to
assist the inspectors in the performance of their duties.  No ballot, proxies, votes or any
revocation thereof or change thereto, shall be accepted by the inspectors after the closing of the
polls unless the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware upon application by a stockholder
shall determine otherwise.  In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at
any meeting of stockholders, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by
applicable law.  No person who is a candidate for office at an election may serve as an inspector
at such election.
1.11Action at Meeting.  When a quorum is present at any meeting, a nominee for director
shall be elected if the number of votes properly cast “for” such nominee’s election exceeds the
number of votes properly cast “against” such nominee’s election; provided, that, if with respect
to any meeting, the number of persons nominated for election to the Board of Directors of the
corporation at such meeting exceeds the number of directors to be elected at such meeting and (i)
the Secretary of the corporation receives a notice that a stockholder has nominated a person for
election to the Board of Directors (x) in accordance with Section 1.12, or (y) with respect to
stockholder-requested special meetings only, in accordance with Section 1.3; and (ii) such
nomination has not been withdrawn by such stockholder on or prior to the tenth (10th) day
preceding the date the corporation first distributes its notice of meeting for such meeting to the
-6-
stockholders, the directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes properly cast at such
meeting.  All matters, other than the election of directors, shall be decided by the affirmative vote
of a majority of the votes properly cast affirmatively or negatively, except when a larger vote is
required by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation, by these By-Laws or by the rules or
regulations of the New York Stock Exchange, or any other stock exchange applicable to the
corporation.
1.12Nomination of Directors.
ASubject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock of the
corporation, only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall
be eligible for election as directors.  The nomination for election to the Board of Directors of the
corporation at a meeting of stockholders may be made only (a) by or at the direction of the Board
of Directors, (b) by any stockholder of the corporation who (i) was a stockholder of record of the
corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 1.12 is delivered to the Secretary of
the corporation through the time of the meeting, (ii) is entitled to vote in the election of directors
at the meeting and (iii) timely complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.12
and with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in connection with the matters set forth in this
Section 1.12 or (c) in the case of a stockholder-requested special meeting, by any stockholder
pursuant to Section 1.3 of these By-Laws.  For the avoidance of doubt, clauses (b) and (c) of the
preceding sentence shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to submit nominations for
election to the Board of Directors before an annual or special meeting of stockholders; provided,
however, that notwithstanding any other provision of these By-Laws, in the case of a
stockholder-requested special meeting called pursuant to Section 1.3 of these By-Laws, no
stockholder may nominate a person for election to the Board of Directors or propose any other
business to be considered at the meeting, except pursuant to the Meeting Request(s) delivered for
such special meeting pursuant to paragraph B of Section 1.3 of these By-Laws.
BTo be timely, a stockholder of record’s notice must be received by the Secretary
of the corporation at the principal executive offices of the corporation (a) in the case of an annual
meeting, not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day, nor earlier than the one
hundred twentieth (120th) day, prior to the first anniversary date of the immediately preceding
annual meeting of stockholders, or (b) in the case of a special meeting at which directors are to
be elected, not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the date on
which public announcement (as defined below) of the date of such meeting is first made by the
corporation; provided, however, that, in the case of an annual meeting, if the annual meeting is
not held within thirty (30) days before or after such anniversary date, or if no annual meeting was
held in the preceding year, then for the notice by the stockholder to be timely it must be so
received not earlier than the one hundred twentieth day (120th) day before such annual meeting
and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day before such annual
meeting or the tenth (10th) day following the date on which the public announcement of the date
of such meeting is first made by the corporation.  In no event shall the public announcement of
an adjournment, recess, continuation, rescheduling, judicial stay or postponement (or the public
announcement thereof) of an annual meeting for which notice has been given or for which a
public announcement of the date of such meeting has already been made by the corporation or of

respects as of (i) the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of the
meeting and (ii) the date that is five (5) business days prior to the meeting and, in the event of
any adjournment or postponement thereof, five (5) business days prior to such adjourned or

(or inaccuracy) of any representations made by any stockholder, Stockholder Associated Person,
Proposed Nominee or any Affiliate of such Proposed Nominee or the validity (or invalidity) of
any nomination or proposal that failed to comply with Section 1.12, Section 1.13 or Section 1.3
or is rendered invalid as a result of any inaccuracy therein.  Such update may only be provided to
the extent that information has changed such that the stockholder’s prior submission and must

prior submission. In the case of an update and supplement pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph
C, such update and supplement shall be received by the Secretary of the corporation at the

corporation of any material inaccuracy or change in any information submitted pursuant to these
By-Laws (including if such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person no longer intends
to solicit proxies) within two (2) business days after becoming aware of such material inaccuracy
or change, it being understood that no such notification may cure any deficiencies or inaccuracies
with respect to any prior submissions by such stockholder.  Upon written request of the Secretary
on behalf of the Board of Directors (or a duly authorized committee thereof), such stockholder
shall provide, within seven (7) business days after delivery of such request (or such other period

to the Board of Directors, any committee thereof or any authorized officer of the corporation, to
demonstrate the accuracy of any information submitted by such stockholder and (b) a written

corporation, including adopting rules and procedures, except as otherwise provided by law, the
Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, as it may deem proper for the conduct of its
meetings and the management of the corporation.
2.2Number; Election and Qualification.  The number of directors that shall constitute the
whole Board of Directors shall be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors, but in no
event shall be less than three.  No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term of
any incumbent director.  The directors need not be stockholders of the corporation.  No person
shall be eligible for election or appointment as a director unless such person has, within ten (10)
days following any reasonable request therefor from the Board of Directors or any committee
thereof, made himself or herself available to be interviewed by the Board of Directors (or any
committee or other subset thereof) with respect to such person’s qualifications to serve as a
director or any other matter reasonably related to such person’s candidacy or service as a director
of the corporation.
2.3Terms of Office.  Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock of
the corporation, each director shall serve for a term ending on the date of the annual meeting
following the annual meeting at which such director was elected and shall hold office until the
election and qualification of his or her successor or his or her earlier death, resignation or
removal.
2.4Removal.  Except as prohibited by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the
directors of the corporation may be removed with or without cause by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the voting power of shares of the capital stock of the corporation issued
and outstanding and entitled to vote generally in the election of directors.
-21-
2.5Vacancies. Any vacancy in the Board of Directors, however occurring, including a
vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the Board of Directors, shall be filled only by a
majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining
director.  A director chosen to fill a vacancy or to fill a position resulting from an increase in the
number of directors shall serve for a term ending on the date of the next annual meeting and shall
hold office until the election and qualification of his or her successor or his or her earlier death,
resignation or removal.  In the event of a vacancy in the Board of Directors, the remaining
directors, except as otherwise provided by law, may exercise the powers of the full Board of
Directors until the vacancy is filled.
2.6Resignation.  Any director may resign by delivering his or her written resignation to the
corporation at its principal office or to the President or Secretary.  Such resignation shall be
effective upon receipt unless it is specified to be effective at some other time or upon the
happening of some other future event.
2.7Regular Meetings.  The regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without
notice at such time and place (if any), either within or without the State of Delaware, as shall be
determined from time to time by the Board of Directors; provided, that any director who is
absent when such a determination is made shall be given notice of the determination.  A regular
meeting of the Board of Directors may be held without notice immediately after and at the same
place as the annual meeting of stockholders.
2.8Special Meetings.  Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be held at any time
and place (if any), within or without the State of Delaware, designated in a call by the Chairman
of the Board, the President, two or more directors, or by one director in the event that there is
only a single director in office.
2.9Notice of Special Meetings.  Notice of any special meeting of the Board of Directors
shall be given to each director by the Secretary or by the officer or one of the directors calling the
meeting.  The notice shall be duly given to each director (i) by giving notice to such director in
person or by telephone at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the meeting, (ii) by
electronic transmission or delivering written notice by hand, to the director’s last known business
or home address at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the meeting, (iii) by mailing
written notice to the director’s last known business or home address at least seventy-two (72)
hours in advance of the meeting, or (iv) on such shorter notice as the person or persons calling
such meeting may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.  Any director may waive
notice of any meeting before or after the meeting.  The attendance of a director at any meeting
shall constitute a waiver of such meeting, except where the director attends the meeting for the
express purpose of objecting, and does so object, at the beginning of the meeting to the
transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.  A notice or
waiver of notice of a special meeting of the Board of Directors need not specify the business to
be transacted at nor the purposes of the meeting.

held by conference telephone or similar communication equipment, so long as all persons
participating in the meeting can hear one another and can be heard; and all persons participating
in such a meeting shall be deemed to be present in person at the meeting.

a quorum at all meetings of the Board of Directors.  In the absence of a quorum at any such
meeting, a majority of the directors present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without
further notice, other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.
2.12Action at Meeting.  At any meeting of the Board of Directors at which a quorum is
present, the affirmative vote of a majority of those present shall be sufficient to take any action,
unless a different vote is specified by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws.
2.13Action by Consent.  Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the
Board of Directors or a committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the
Board or such committee, as applicable, consent to the action in writing or by electronic
transmission.  After an action is taken, the consent or consents shall be filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee of the Board of Directors.  Such filings shall
be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the
minutes are maintained in electronic form.
2.14Committees.  The Board of Directors may designate one or more committees, each
committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the corporation.  The Board of Directors
may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace
any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.  In the absence or
disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members present at any meeting and
not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may
unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place
of any such absent or disqualified member.  Except as may be provided in any resolutions
establishing or designating a committee of the Board, the Board of Directors shall have the
power at any time to fill vacancies in, to change the membership of or dissolve any committee of
the Board. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors
and subject to the provisions of the DGCL, shall have and may exercise all the powers and
authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the
corporation and may authorize the seal of the corporation to be affixed to all papers that may
require it.  Unless the Board of Directors provides otherwise, at all meetings of such committee,
a majority of the then authorized members of the committee shall constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business, and the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the committee
present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the committee.  Each such
committee shall keep minutes and make such reports as the Board of Directors may from time to
time request.  Except as the Board of Directors may otherwise determine, any committee may
adopt a charter and make rules for the conduct of its business, but unless otherwise provided by
the directors or in such charter or rules, its business shall be conducted as nearly as possible in
the same manner as is provided in these By-Laws for the Board of Directors.
2.15Compensation of Directors.  The directors may be paid such compensation for their
services and such reimbursement for expenses of attendance at meetings as the Board of
Directors may from time to time determine.  No such payment shall preclude any director from
serving the corporation or any of its parent or subsidiary corporations in any other capacity and
receiving compensation for such service.
