WPS RESOURCES CORPORATION
BY-LAWS
As in Effect April 1, 2004
ARTICLE I. OFFICES
1. Principal Office
The principal office of the Corporation in the State of Wisconsin shall be in the City of Green Bay. The Corporation may also have offices at such other places, within and outside of the State of Wisconsin, as the Board of Directors may designate or as the business of the Corporation may require.
2. Registered Office
The Board of Directors shall designate the registered office of the Corporation and may change such registered office by resolution.
ARTICLE II. SHAREHOLDERS
1. Annual Meeting
The annual meeting of the shareholders ("Annual Meeting") shall be held each year not later than the fourth Tuesday in May, at such time or on such day as may be designated by resolution of the Board of Directors. In fixing a meeting date for any Annual Meeting, the Board of Directors may consider such factors as it deems relevant within the good faith exercise of its business judgment.
2. Purposes of Annual Meeting
At each Annual Meeting, the shareholders shall elect the number of directors equal to the number of directors in the class whose term expires at the time of such Annual Meeting and transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting in accordance with Section 14 of Article II of these By-laws. If the election of directors shall not be held on the date fixed as herein provided, for any Annual Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of shareholders (a "Special Meeting") as soon thereafter as is practicable.

3. Special Meetings
a. A Special Meeting may be called only by (i) the Board of Directors, (ii) the Chairman of the Board, (iii) the President or (iv) the Secretary and shall be called by the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Secretary upon the demand, in accordance with this Section 3, of the holders of record of shares representing at least 10% of all the votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at the Special Meeting.
b. In order that the Corporation may determine the shareholders entitled to demand a Special Meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date to determine the shareholders entitled to make such a demand (the "Demand Record Date"). The Demand Record Date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the Demand Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors and shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the Demand Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors. Any shareholder of record seeking to have shareholders demand a Special Meeting shall, by sending written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, request the Board of Directors to fix a Demand Record Date. The Board of Directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten days after the date on which a valid request to fix a Demand Record Date is received, adopt a resolution fixing the Demand Record Date and shall make a public announcement of such Demand Record Date. If no Demand Record Date has been fixed by the Board of Directors within ten days after the date on which such request is received by the Secretary, the Demand Record Date shall be the 10th day after the first date on which a valid written request to set a Demand Record Date is received by the Secretary. To be valid, such written request shall set forth the purpose or purposes for which the Special Meeting is to be held, shall be signed by one or more shareholders of record (or their duly authorized proxies or other representatives), shall bear the date of signature of each such shareholder (or proxy or other representative) and shall set forth all information about each such shareholder and about the beneficial owner or owners, if any, on whose behalf the request is made that would be required to be set forth in a shareholder's notice described in paragraph (a) (ii) of Section 14 of this Article II.
