|
FOURTH: The maximum number of shares which the Corporation is authorized to have outstanding is 750, all of which shall be common without par value. Such shares may be issued pursuant to subscriptions taken by the incorporators for such consideration as may be specified by them and, after organization, shares without par value now or hereafter authorized may be issued from time to time upon such consideration as may be fixed by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, may fix different amounts and/or kinds of consideration for the issuance of shares without par value, whether issued at the same time or at different times and may determine what portion of the amount or amounts of consideration so received by the Corporation shall be and constitute stated capital. Any and all shares without par value the consideration for which as fixed by the incorporators or by the Board of Directors has been paid or delivered shall be fully paid and non-assessable.
FIFTH: The amount of stated capital with which the Corporation shall begin business is Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00).
SIXTH: To the extent permissible under the laws of the State of Ohio, and unless otherwise expressly directed by statute, consent by vote or otherwise of the holders of shares (of any class entitled to vote thereon) entitling same to exercise a majority of the voting power of the Corporation shall be sufficient to sustain any action to be taken by the shareholders of the Corporation, and in cases where any class shall be required by the laws of the State of Ohio to consent separately as a class, consent by vote or otherwise of the holders of a majority of the shares of that class shall be sufficient to sustain any action to be taken by the shareholders of that class.
-3-
F0613–0413
SEVENTH: The holders of shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to purchase, subscribe for or otherwise acquire any new or additional shares of capital stock of the Corporation, or any options or warrants to purchase, subscribe for or otherwise acquire any such new or additional shares, or any shares, bonds, notes, debentures or other securities convertible into or carrying options or warrants to purchase, subscribe for or otherwise acquire any such new or additional shares of capital stock of the Corporation, in proportion to their respective holdings of capital stock of the Corporation.
EIGHTH: The Board of Directors is hereby authorized to fix and determine whether any, and if any, what part, of the surplus, however created or arising, shall be used, declared in dividends, or paid to shareholders, and, without action by the shareholders, to use the surplus, or any part thereof, or such part of the stated capital of the Corporation as is permitted under the provisions of § 1701.35 of the Ohio Revised Code, or any statute of like tenor or effect which is hereafter enacted, for the purchase or acquisition of shares of any class, warrants, obligations, evidences of indebtedness or other securities of the Corporation.
NINTH: Any provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, the Corporation shall have the power, upon the affirmative vote of a simple majority of its Board of Directors, to purchase, hold, sell and transfer shares of its own capital stock, provided, it shall not use its funds or property for such purpose when such use would cause any impairment of its capital and, provided, further, that the shares of its own capital stock belonging to it and held as Treasury shares shall not be voted directly or indirectly.
TENTH: The Corporation reserves the right at any time, and from time to time, substantially to change, alter, add to or diminish its purposes as specified in these Articles of Incorporation in the manner now or hereafter permitted by law. Any such change in the purposes of the Corporation if accomplished in a manner now or hereafter permitted by law shall be binding and conclusive upon every shareholder of the Corporation as fully as if such shareholder had voted therefor at a meeting of the shareholders authorizing such change, and no shareholder, notwithstanding he may have voted against such change or objected thereto in writing, shall be entitled to payment of the full or fair cash value of his shares or of any other rights of a dissenting shareholder.

F0613–0414
ELEVENTH: A director or officer of the Corporation shall not be disqualified by his office from dealing or contracting with the Corporation as a vendor, purchaser, employee, agent or otherwise. No transaction or contract or act of the Corporation shall be void or voidable or in any way affected or invalidated by reason of the fact that any director or officer of this Corporation is also a member of a firm, or an officer, director, shareholder or trustee of a corporation, or a trustee or beneficiary of a trust, or otherwise connected with any other enterprise, in any way interested in such transaction, contract or act. No director or officer shall be accountable or responsible to the Corporation for or in respect to any transaction, contract or act of the Corporation or for any gains or profits directly or indirectly realized by him by reason of the fact that he or any firm of which he is a member, or any corporation of which he is an officer, shareholder, director, or trustee, or any trust of which he is a trustee or beneficiary, or other entity with which he is connected, is interested in such transaction, contract or act; provided, nevertheless, that the fact that such director or officer, or that such firm, corporation, trust or other entity is so interested as shall have been disclosed or shall have been known to the Board of Directors or such members thereof as shall be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors at which action upon such contract, transaction or act shall have been taken. Any such director may be counted in determining the existence of a quorum at any meeting of the Board of Directors which shall authorize or take action in respect to any such contract, transaction or act; and any such director may vote thereat to authorize, ratify, or approve any such contract, transaction or act; and any officer of the Corporation may take any action within the scope of his authority respecting such contract, transaction or act, with like force and effect as if he, or any firm of which he is a member, or any corporation of which he is an officer, shareholder, director, or trustee, or any trust of which he is a trustee or beneficiary, or any other entity with which he is connected, were not interested in such transaction, contract or act. Without limiting or qualifying the foregoing, if in any judicial or other inquiry, suit, cause or proceeding, the question of whether a director or officer of the Corporation has acted in good faith is material, and notwithstanding any statute or rule of law or of equity to the contrary (if any there be), his good faith shall be presumed, in the absence of clear and convincing evidence and proof to the contrary.
TWELFTH: These Articles of Incorporation may be amended at any time and from time to time in the manner provided by law.
THIRTEENTH: The Corporation shall indemnify each of its officers, directors, and employees, whether or not then in office, and his heirs and legal representatives, against all expenses, judgments, decrees, fines, penalties or other amounts paid in satisfaction or in settlement of, or in connection with the defense of, any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding, civil or criminal, to which he is or may be made a party by reason of his being or his having been a director, officer or employee of the Corporation. Without limitation, the term “expenses” shall include all counsel fees, expert witness fees, court costs and any other amounts of a similar nature.
-5-
F0613–0415
The Board of Directors shall, from time to time, adopt by-laws and regulations to implement the indemnification provisions set forth herein. It is understood that the provisions hereinbefore set forth respecting indemnification of any officer, director or employee, shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which such officer, director or employee may be entitled under these Articles, or under any agreement with, or any insurance purchased by, the Corporation, or pursuant to any vote of the shareholders, or otherwise.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hands this 18 day of February, 1985.
