(B) Provisions Relating to the Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors (the “Board”) is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law and the provisions of this Article IV, to provide for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Nevada to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The authority of the Board with respect to each series shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following:

 

(1) The number of shares constituting that series and the distinctive designation of that series;

 

(2) The dividend rate on the shares of that series, whether dividends shall be cumulative, and if so, from which date or dates, and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of dividends on shares of that series;

 

(3) Whether that series shall have voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and if so, the terms of such voting rights;

 

(4) Whether that series shall have conversion privileges, and if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion, including provision for adjustment of the conversion rate in such events as the Board shall determine;

 

(5) Whether or not the shares of that series shall be redeemable, and if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption;

 

 

 

 

(6) Whether that series shall have a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase of shares of that series, and if so, the terms and amount of such sinking fund;

 

(7) The rights of the shares of that series in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of shares of that series;

 

(8) Any other relative or participation rights, preferences and limitations of that series;

ARTICLE V. BOARD OF DIRECTORS

 

(A) Number. The number of directors constituting the entire Board shall be fixed from time to time by vote of a majority of the entire Board, provided, however, that the number of directors shall not be reduced so as to shorten the term of any director at the time in office.

 

(B) Vacancies. Vacancies on the Board shall be filled by the affirmative vote of the majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum of the Board, or by election at an annual meeting or at a special meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose.

 

(C) Election. The election of directors need not be by written ballot.

 

(D) General Corporate Authority. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, and subject to the Bylaws adopted by the stockholders, the Board is expressly authorized to manage and direct the business and affairs of the Corporation in all respects, including the power and authority to sell, lease or exchange all or any part of the property and assets of the Corporation, including its goodwill and corporate franchises, upon such terms and conditions as the Board deems expedient and in the best interests of the Corporation. The Board may authorize and consummate any sale, lease, or exchange of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation without the vote, authorization, consent, or approval of any of the stockholders of the Corporation, notwithstanding anything otherwise provided in Section 78.565 or any other section of the Nevada Revised Statutes or other provision of law. The Board is further authorized to establish committees, appoint officers, enter into contracts and agreements of any nature, and take all such other actions as the Board may determine to be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of the Corporation.

To the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law as the same exists or as may hereafter be amended, no director or officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation. Any amendment or repeal of this Article VII will not eliminate or reduce the effect of any right or protection of a director or officer of the Corporation existing immediately prior to such amendment or repeal.

 

ARTICLE VIII. INDEMNIFICATION

 

(A) Right to Indemnification. The Corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law as it now exists or may hereafter be amended, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation, or 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.

 

(B) International Activities. Without limiting the generality of Section (A) of this Article VIII, such indemnification shall extend to actions taken in good faith in connection with the business activities of the Corporation in any jurisdiction, including actions taken in connection with cross-border transactions, international business arrangements, and activities in foreign markets, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.

 

(C) Advancement of Expenses. Expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit, or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation.

 

(D) Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation against any liability asserted against such person in such capacity, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person under the provisions of this Article VIII or under Nevada law.

 

(E) Non-Exclusivity. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided in this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification may be entitled under any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

 

 

 

 

ARTICLE IX. FORUM SELECTION

(i) Any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation;

 

(ii) Any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, or employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders;

 

(iii) Any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Nevada Revised Statutes or these Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Corporation; or

 

(iv) Any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of Nevada as the Bylaws may provide. The books of the Corporation may be kept outside the State of Nevada at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the Board or in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power, unless a greater proportion is required by law or these Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, and such written consent is filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the stockholders.

 

ARTICLE XI. AMENDMENT OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

 

The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in these Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

 

ARTICLE XII. ACQUISITION OF CONTROLLING INTEREST

 

The Corporation elects not to be governed by the terms and provisions of Sections 78.378 through 78.3793, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, as the same may be amended, superseded, or replaced by any successor section, statute, or provision. No amendment to these Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, directly or indirectly, by merger or consolidation or otherwise, having the effect of amending or repealing any provision of this Article XII shall apply to or have any effect on any transaction involving acquisition of control by any person occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

 

ARTICLE XIII. CORPORATE OPPORTUNITY

 

The Corporation hereby renounces, to the fullest extent permitted by NRS § 78.070(8), any interest or expectancy in any business opportunity or any class or category of business opportunities that is or may be presented to any stockholder, director or officer of the Corporation or any of their respective affiliates, including without limitation any business opportunity in any industry or sector in which any stockholder, director or officer of the Corporation or any of its affiliates is engaged or may in the future become engaged, and no stockholder, director or officer of the Corporation shall have any obligation to offer any such business opportunity to the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the doctrine of corporate opportunity shall apply with respect to any of the directors or officers of the Corporation with respect to a corporate opportunity that was offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation and (i) such opportunity is one the Corporation is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for the Corporation to pursue and (ii) the director or officer is permitted to refer that opportunity to the Corporation without violating any legal obligation.
