ARTICLE I
Meetings of Shareholders
1. Meetings of shareholders may be held on such date and at such time and
place, within or without the State of New Jersey, as may be fixed by the board
of directors and stated in the notice of meeting.
2. The date for each annual meeting of shareholders, fixed as provided in
Section 1 of this Article I, shall be a date not more than thirteen months
after the date on which the last annual meeting of shareholders was held. The
directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of shareholders.
3. Special meetings of the shareholders may be called by the board of
directors, the chairman of the board or the president.
4. Except as otherwise provided by statute, written notice of the date, time,
place and purpose or purposes of every meeting of shareholders shall be given
not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting,
either personally or by mail, to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at
the meeting. The business transacted at meetings shall be confined to the
purposes specified in the notice.
5. Unless otherwise provided by statute the holders of shares entitled to
cast a majority of votes at a meeting, present either in person or by proxy,
shall constitute a quorum at such meeting. Less than a quorum may adjourn.
6. For the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to notice of or
to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or for the
purpose of determining shareholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend
or allotment of any right, or for the purpose of any other action, the board of
directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such
determination of shareholders. Such date shall not be more than sixty nor less
than ten days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty days prior
to any other action.
7. The board of directors may, in advance of any shareholders' meeting,
appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting or any adjournment
thereof. If inspectors are not so appointed by the board or shall fail to
qualify, the person presiding at a shareholders' meeting may, and at the
request of any shareholder entitled to vote thereat, shall, make such
appointment. In case any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or act,
the vacancy may be filled by appointment made by the board in advance of the
meeting or at the meeting by the person presiding at the meeting. Each
inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall
take and sign an oath faithfully to execute such duties at such meeting with
strict impartiality and according to the best of the inspector's ability.
The inspectors shall determine the number of shares outstanding and the
voting power of each, the shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a
quorum, the validity and effect of proxies, and shall receive votes or
consents, hear and determine all challenges and questions arising in connection
with the right to vote, count and tabulate all votes or consents, determine the
result, and do such acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with
fairness to all shareholders. If there
are three or more inspectors, the act of a majority shall govern. On request of
the person presiding at the meeting or any shareholder entitled to vote
thereat, the inspectors shall make a report in writing of any challenge,
question or matter determined by them. Any report made by them shall be prima
facie evidence of the facts therein stated, and such report shall be filed with
the minutes of the meeting.
ARTICLE II
Board of Directors
1. The business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed by its board
of directors consisting of not less than ten nor more than nineteen members,
who shall hold office until the next annual meeting and until their successors
shall have been elected and qualified. The actual number of directors shall be
determined from time to time by resolution of the board. If at any time, except
at the annual meeting, the number of directors shall be increased, the
additional director or directors may be elected by the board, to hold office
until the next annual meeting and until their successors shall have been
elected and qualified.
2. The organization meeting of the board of directors, for the purpose of
organization or otherwise, shall be held without further notice on the day of
the annual meeting of shareholders, at such time and place as shall be fixed
from time to time pursuant to resolution of the board. Other regular meetings
of the board may be held without further notice at such times and places as
shall be fixed from time to time pursuant to resolution of the board. The
chairman of the board, the president, any vice president who is a member of the
board, or the secretary may change the day or hour or place of any single
regular meeting from that determined by the board upon causing that prior
notice of such change be transmitted to all directors.
Special meetings of the board may be called at the direction of the
chairman of the board, of the president or of any vice president who is a
member of the board, or, in the absence of such officers, at the direction of
any one of the directors. Any such meeting shall be held on such date and at
such time and place as may be designated in the notice of the meeting.
Notices required under this section may be transmitted in person, in
writing, or by telephone, telegram, cable or radio, and shall be effective
whether or not actually received, provided they are duly transmitted not less
than forty-eight hours in advance of the meeting. Notice may be waived in
writing before or after a meeting. No notice or waiver need specify the
business scheduled for any board meeting and any business may be transacted at
either a regular or special meeting.
3. Five directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business,
except that any directorship not filled at the annual meeting and any vacancy,
however caused, occurring in the board may be filled by the affirmative vote of
a majority of the remaining directors even though less than a quorum of the
board, or by a sole remaining director. At any meeting of the board, whether or
not a quorum is present, a majority of those present may adjourn the meeting.
Notice of an adjourned meeting need not be given if the time and place are
fixed at the meeting adjourning and if the period of adjournment does not
exceed ten days in any one adjournment.
