ARTICLE I. MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS

§1. Annual Meeting.

The annual meeting of the shareholders of this corporation shall be held at the time and place designated by the board of directors of the corporation. The annual meeting of shareholders for any year shall be held no later than 13 months after the last preceding annual meeting of shareholders. Business transacted at the meeting shall include the election of directors of the corporation.

§2. Special Meetings.

Special  meetings  of  the  shareholders  shall  be  held  when  directed  by  the  board  of directors, or when requested in writing by the holders of not less than 10% of all the shares entitled to vote at the meeting.

§3. Place.

Meetings of shareholders may be held within or without the State of Colorado.

§4. Notice.

Written notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the meeting, either personally or by first class mail, by or at the direction of the president, the secretary, or the officer or persons calling the meeting to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.  If mailed, the notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail addressed to the shareholder at his address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the corporation, with postage prepaid.

§5. Notice of Adjourned Meetings.

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, it shall not be necessary to give any notice of the adjourned meeting if the time and place to which the meeting is adjourned are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, and at the adjourned meeting any business may be transacted that might have been transacted on the original date of the meeting. If, however, after the adjournment the board of directors fixes a new record date for the

adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in this section to each shareholder of record on the date entitled to vote at that meeting.

§6. Closing of Transfer Books and Fixing Record Date.

For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of shareholders for any other purpose, the board of directors may provide that the stock transfer books shall be closed for a stated period not to exceed 60 days.  If the stock transfer books shall be closed for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, the books shall be closed for at least 10 days immediately preceding the meeting.

In lieu of closing the stock transfer books, the board of directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any determination of shareholders, that date in any case to be not more than 60 days and, in case of a meeting of shareholders, not less than 10 days before the date on which the particular action requiring the determination of shareholders is to be taken.

If the stock transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the board of directors declaring the dividend is adopted, as the case may be shall be the record date for the determination of shareholders.

When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section, the determination shall apply to any adjournment, unless the board of directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

§7. Voting Record.

The officers or agent having charge of the stock transfer books for shares of the corporation shall make, at least 10 days before each meeting of shareholders, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting or any adjournment with the address of and the number and class and series, if any, of shares held by each.  The list, for a period of 10 days before that meeting, shall be kept on file at the registered office of the corporation, at the principal place of business of the corporation or at the office of the transfer agent or registrar of the corporation and any shareholder shall be entitled to inspect the list at any time during usual business hours.   The list also shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any shareholder at any time during the meeting.

If the requirements of this section have not been complied with substantially, the meeting on demand of any shareholder in person or by proxy shall be adjourned until the requirements are met.  If no such demand is made, failure to comply with the requirements of this section shall not affect the validity of any action taken at the meeting.

§8. Shareholder Quorum and Voting.

A  majority  of  the  shares  entitled  to  vote,  represented  in  person  or  by proxy,  shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of shareholders.  When a specified item of business is required to be voted on by a class or series of stock, a majority of the shares of that class or series shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of that item of business by that class or series.

If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders unless otherwise provided by law.

After  a  quorum  has  been  established  at  a  shareholders'  meeting,  the  subsequent withdrawal of shareholders, so as to reduce the number of shares entitled to vote at the meeting below the number required for a quorum, shall not affect the validity of any action taken at the meeting or any adjournment of it.

§9. Voting of Shares.

Each outstanding share, regardless of class, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareholders.

Treasury shares, shares of stock of this corporation owned by another corporation the majority of the voting stock of which is owned or controlled by this corporation, and shares of stock of this corporation held by it in a fiduciary capacity shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting, and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given time.

A shareholder may vote either in person or by proxy executed in writing by the shareholder or his duly authorized attorney-in-fact.

At each election for directors every shareholder entitled to vote at the election shall have the right to vote, in person or by proxy, the number of shares owned by him for as many persons as there are directors to be elected at that time and for whose election he has a right to vote.

Shares standing in the name of another corporation, domestic or foreign, may be voted by the officer, agent or proxy designated by the bylaws of the corporate shareholder; or, in the absence of any applicable bylaw, by whatever person the board of directors of the corporate shareholder may designate.  Proof of the designation may be made by presentation of a certified copy of the bylaws or other instrument of the corporate shareholder.  In the absence of any such designation, or in case of conflicting designation by the corporate shareholder, the chairman of the board, president, any vice president, secretary and treasurer of the corporate shareholder shall be presumed to possess, in that order, authority to vote the shares.

 
3

 

Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian or conservator may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of the shares into his name.  Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by him without a transfer of the shares into his name.

Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by the receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by the receiver without transfer into his name if authority to do so be contained in an appropriate order of the court by which the receiver was appointed.

A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote those shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter the pledgee or his nominee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.

On and after the date on which written notice of redemption of redeemable shares has been mailed to their holders and a sum sufficient to redeem the shares has been deposited with a bank or trust company with irrevocable instruction and authority to pay the redemption price to their holders upon surrender of their certificates, those shares shall not be entitled to vote on any matter and shall not be deemed to be outstanding shares.

§10. Proxies.

Every shareholder entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders or to express consent or dissent without a meeting or a shareholder's duly authorized attorney-in-fact may authorize any person or persons to act for him by proxy.

Every proxy must be signed by the shareholder or his attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of 11 months from its date unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the shareholder executing it, except as otherwise provided by law.

The authority of the holder of a proxy to act shall not be revoked by the incompetence or death of the shareholder who executed the proxy unless, before the authority is exercised, written notice of an adjudication of incompetence or of death is received by the corporate officer responsible for maintaining the list of shareholders.

If a proxy for the same shares confers authority upon two or more persons and does not otherwise provide, a majority of them present at the meeting or, if only one is present, that one may exercise all the powers conferred by the proxy; but if the proxy holders present at the meeting are equally divided as to the right and manner of voting in any particular case, the voting of the shares shall be prorated.

If a proxy expressly provides, any proxy holder may appoint in writing a substitute to act in his place.

§11. Voting Trusts.

Any number of shareholders of this corporation may create a voting trust for the purpose of conferring upon a trustee or trustees the right to vote or otherwise represent their shares, as provided by law.  When the counterpart of a voting trust agreement and the copy of the record of the holders of voting trust certificates has been deposited with the corporation as provided by law, those documents shall be subject to the same right of examination by a shareholder of the corporation, in person or by agent or attorney, as are the books and records of the corporation, and that counterpart and copy of the record shall be subject to examination by any holder of record of voting trust certificates either in person or by agent or attorney, at any reasonable time for any proper purpose.

§12. Shareholder's Agreements.

Two or more shareholders of this corporation may enter an agreement providing for the exercise of voting rights in the manner provided in the agreement or relating to any phase of the affairs of the corporation as provided by law.  Nothing in that agreement shall impair the right of this corporation to treat the shareholders of record as entitled to vote the shares standing in their names.

§13. Action by Shareholders Without a Meeting.

Any action required by law, these bylaws or the articles of incorporation of this corporation to be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of the corporation, or any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such shareholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote were present and voted.  If any class of shares is entitled to vote as a class, written consent shall be required of the holders of a majority of the shares of each class of shares entitled to vote a class and of the total shares entitled to vote.

Within 10 days after obtaining authorization by written consent, notice shall be given to those shareholders who have not consented in writing.   The notice shall fairly summarize the material features of the authorized action and, if the action be a merger, consolidation or sale or exchange of assets for which dissenters' rights are provided under this act, the notice shall contain a clear statement of the right of dissenting shareholders to be paid the fair value of their shares upon compliance with further provisions of this act regarding the rights of dissenting shareholders.

§4. Duties of Directors.

A director shall perform his duties as a director, including his duties as a member of any committee of the board upon which he may serve, in good faith, in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation, and with such care as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. In performing his duties, a director shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports or statements, including financial statements and other financial data, in each case prepared or presented by:

one or more officers or employees of the corporation whom the director reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented,

§6. Number.

This corporation shall have a minimum of three (3) directors.  The number of directors may be increased or decreased from time to time by amendment to these bylaws, but no decrease shall have the effect of shortening the terms of any incumbent director.

§9. Removal of Directors.

At a meeting of shareholders called expressly for that purpose, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed, with or without cause, by a vote of the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors.

(a)
The fact of that relationship or interest is disclosed or known to the board of directors or committee that authorizes, approves or ratifies the contract or transaction by a vote or consent sufficient for the purpose without counting the votes or consents of the interested directors; or
 
(b)

Members of the board of directors may participate in a meeting of the board by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other at the same time.  Participation by those means shall constitute presence in person at a meeting.

§15. Action Without a Meeting.

Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the directors of a corporation, or any action that may be taken at a meeting of the directors or a committee of the directors, may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so to be taken, signed by all of the directors, or all the members of the committee, as the case may be, is filed in the minutes of the proceedings of the board or of the committee.  The consent shall have the same effect as a unanimous vote.

ARTICLE III. OFFICERS

§1. Officers.

The officers of this corporation shall consist of a Chief Executive Officer, president, a secretary and a treasurer, each of whom shall be elected by the board of directors. Other officers and assistant officers and agents as may be deemed necessary may be elected or appointed by the board of directors from time to time.  Any two or more offices may be held by the same person.  The failure to elect a president, secretary or treasurer shall not affect the existence of this corporation.

The CEO may sign, with the secretary or any other proper officer of the corporation, as authorized by the board of directors or by these By-Laws, share certificates of the corporation, or may authorize the issuance of paperless book-entry shares, and may sign deeds, mortgages, leases, bonds, contracts, or other instruments which the board of directors has authorized to be executed, except in cases where the signing and execution of these instruments is expressly delegated by the board of directors or by these By-Laws to some other officer or agent of the corporation, or is required by law to be otherwise signed or executed

The president shall perform any duties that the board of directors or the CEO may assign from time to time.  In the absence of the CEO or in the event of the CEO’s death, inability or refusal to act, the president shall perform the duties of the CEO, and when so acting, shall have all the powers of and be subject to all the restrictions upon the CEO.

Each vice president shall perform any duties that the board of directors, the Chief Executive Officer, or the president, may assign from time to time.  In the absence of the Chief Executive Officer, or the president or in the event of their, inability or refusal to act, the vice-president (or in the event there is more than one vice-president, the vice-presidents in the order designated at the time of their election, or in the absence of any designation, then in the order of their appointment) shall perform the duties of the Chief Executive Officer or the president, and when so acting, shall have all the powers of and be subject to all the restrictions upon the officer for whom the vice president is acting.

ARTICLE VI. DIVIDENDS

The board of directors of this corporation, from time to time, may declare and the corporation may pay dividends on its shares in cash, property or its own shares, except when the corporation is insolvent or when the payment of dividends would render the corporation insolvent or when the declaration or payment would be contrary to any restrictions contained in the articles of incorporation, subject to the following provisions:
 
 
(a)
Dividends in cash or property may be declared and paid, except as otherwise provided in this section, only out of the unreserved and unrestricted earned surplus of the corporation or out of capital surplus, however arising, but each dividend paid out of capital surplus shall be identified as a distribution of capital surplus, and the amount per share paid from the surplus shall be disclosed to the shareholders receiving the payment concurrently with the distribution.

 
(b)
Dividends may be declared and paid in the corporation's own treasury shares.
 
 
(c)
Dividends may be declared and paid in the corporation's own authorized but unissued share out of any unreserved and unrestricted surplus of the corporation upon the following conditions:

(l)          If a dividend is payable in shares having a par value, those shares shall be issued at not less than the par value and there shall be transferred to stated capital at the time the dividend is paid an amount of surplus equal to the aggregate par value of the shares to be issued as a dividend.

(2)          If a dividend is payable in shares without par value, those shares shall be issued at such stated value as shall be fixed by the board of directors by resolution adopted at the time the dividend is declared, and there shall be transferred to stated capital at the time the dividend is paid an amount of surplus equal to the aggregate stated value so fixed in respect of those shares; and the amount per share so transferred to stated capital shall be disclosed to the shareholders receiving the dividend concurrently with its payment.

 
(d)
No dividend payable in shares of any class shall be paid to the holders of shares of any other class unless the articles of incorporation so provide or the payment is authorized by the affirmative vote or the written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of the class in which the payment is to be made.

 
(e)
A split-up or division of the issued shares of any class into a greater number of shares of the same class without increasing the stated capital of the corporation shall not be construed to be a share dividend within the meaning of this section.
