SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS
--------------------
1. TIME AND PLACE OF MEETINGS. All meetings of the shareholders for the
election of directors or for any other purpose will be held at such time and
place, within or without the State of Ohio, as may be designated by the Board of
Directors or, in the absence of a designation by the Board of Directors, the
Chairman of the Board of Directors, if any (the "Chairman"), the President, or
the Secretary, and stated in the notice of meeting. The Board of Directors may
postpone and reschedule any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of
the shareholders.
2. ANNUAL MEETING. An annual meeting of the shareholders will be held
at such date and time as may be designated from time to time by the Board of
Directors, at which meeting the shareholders will elect directors to succeed
those directors whose terms expire at such meeting and will transact such other
business as may be brought properly before the meeting in accordance with
Regulation 8.
3. SPECIAL MEETINGS. (a) Special meetings of shareholders may be called
by the Chairman or the President or by a majority of the Board of Directors
acting with or without a meeting or by any person or persons who hold not less
than 50% of all the shares outstanding and entitled to be voted on any proposal
to be submitted at said meeting. Special meetings of the holders of shares that
are entitled to call a special meeting by virtue of any Preferred Stock
Designation may call such meetings in the manner and for the purposes provided
in the applicable terms of such Preferred Stock Designation. For purposes of
this Code of Regulations, "Preferred Stock Designation" means the express terms
of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation, whether
now or hereafter issued, with rights to distributions senior to those of the
Common Stock including, without limitation, any relative, participating,
optional, or other special rights and privileges of, and any qualifications or
restrictions on, such shares.
(b) Upon written request by any person or persons entitled to call a
meeting of shareholders delivered in person or by registered mail to the
Chairman, the President or the Secretary, such officer shall forthwith cause
notice of the meeting to be given to the shareholders entitled to notice of such
meeting in accordance with Regulation 4. If such notice shall not be given
within 60 days after the delivery or mailing of such request, the person or
persons requesting the meeting may fix the time of the meeting and give, or
cause to be given, notice in the manner provided in Regulation 4.
4. NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Written notice of every meeting of the
shareholders called in accordance with these Regulations, stating the time,
place, and purposes for which the meeting is called, will be given by or at the
direction of the President, a Vice President, the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary (or in case of their refusal, by the person or persons entitled to
call the meeting under Regulation 3). Such notice will be given not less than 7
nor more than 60 calendar days before the date of the meeting to each
shareholder of record entitled to notice of such meeting. If such notice is
mailed, it shall be addressed to the shareholders at their respective addresses
as they appear on the records of the Corporation, and notice shall be deemed to
have been given on the day so mailed. Notice of adjournment of a meeting need
not be given if the time and place to which it is adjourned are fixed and
announced at such meeting.
5. INSPECTORS. Inspectors of election may be appointed to act at any
meeting of shareholders in accordance with Ohio law.
6. QUORUM. To constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders, there
shall be present in person or by proxy shareholders of record entitled to
exercise not less than a majority of the voting power of the Corporation in
respect of any one of the purposes for which the meeting is called, unless a
greater or lesser number is expressly provided for with respect to a particular
class or series of capital stock by the terms of any applicable Preferred Stock
Designation. Except as may be otherwise provided in any Preferred Stock
Designation, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Corporation
represented in person or by proxy at a meeting of shareholders, whether or not a
