WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO
SEND US A PROXY

ACTION NO. 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

On May 12, 2006, Allan D. Laird and Gregory Leigh Lyons resigned as directors of the Company, leaving two vacant seats on the current Board of Directors, with Dr. Anthony K. Yeats remaining as the sole director. The Board of Directors determined by resolution that these vacancies should be filled by stockholder vote. Stockholders can elect directors by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at a shareholder meeting.

Stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares have executed written consents electing Dr. Anthony K. Yeats, Kelly H. Nelson and Carmen J. Lotito to serve as directors of the Company.

Please refer to the Section titled “Directors and Executive Officers” for a description of the new directors.

ACTION NO. 2
REINCORPORATION AS A MARYLAND CORPORATION

Stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares have consented in writing to reincorporate the Company from the state of Nevada to the state of Maryland. We refer to this Action as the “Maryland Reincorporation.”

After the reincorporation is effected, we will be governed by the Maryland Code, by the Articles of Incorporation of the Maryland entity (the “Maryland Articles”) and by the Bylaws of Maryland entity (the “Maryland Bylaws”), which will result in certain changes in the rights of stockholders and other matters related to us. The most significant changes are discussed in this proxy statement under “Reincorporation as a Maryland Corporation.” This summary is not intended to be a complete description of the Maryland Reincorporation or the differences between stockholders’ rights under the Nevada Code and the Maryland Code, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Maryland Articles attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit A, the Maryland Bylaws attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit B, our Nevada Certificate of Incorporation (the “Nevada Articles”) and our current Bylaws (the “Nevada Bylaws”). Copies of the Nevada Articles and the Nevada Bylaws are available for inspection at our principal business office and will be provided to any stockholder upon request. To request copies of these documents, contact Mr. Carmen J. Lotito, Corporate Secretary, 1875 Lawrence Street, Suite 1400, Denver, CO 80202.

For purposes of the “Reincorporation as a Maryland Corporation” section, the “Company” refers in most places to Digital Ecosystems Corp., incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada; in those instances where reference is made to the “Company” after the reincorporation, the reference means PetroHunter Energy Corporation incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland.

ACTION NO. 3
NAME CHANGE

Our stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares have consented in writing to change our name from “Digital Ecosystems Corp.” to “PetroHunter Energy Corporation” (the “Name Change”). This name change had been previously approved by our Board of Directors. The Company believes that the new name, PetroHunter Energy Corporation, will more accurately reflect our current business activities and will promote public recognition and more accurately reflect our products and business focus. Our new name will become effective at the time of the Maryland Reincorporation.

ACTION NO. 4
APPROVAL OF THE 2005 STOCK OPTION PLAN

Stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares have signed written consents to approve the terms of the 2005 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). Under the Plan, the Company may grant certain employees both incentive and non-qualified options to purchase shares of common stock. The Plan is authorized to grant options covering up to 40,000,000 shares. Under this Plan, the Company has assumed the obligation to grant options to purchase an aggregate of 19,000,000 shares of common stock, including options to purchase 13,000,000 shares to MAB Operating Company and options to purchase 2,000,000 shares each to Kelly Nelson, Carmen Lotito and Garry Lavold. These options were previously granted by GSL Energy Corporation, of which we acquired more than 85% of the outstanding stock in May 2006. Twenty percent of each of the options granted is exercisable immediately, and twenty percent of each option becomes exercisable on August 10^th of 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. Each option has an exercise price of $0.50 per share, and each option expires and terminates, if not exercised sooner, on August 10, 2010.

EFFECTIVE TIME

All the Actions described above automatically will be effective, and may be implemented by the Company, 20 days after the date that this Information Statement is mailed to the stockholders of the Company.

VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF

As of the close of business on the Record Date, there were 225,373,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding. The shares of Common Stock are the only class of voting securities of the Company outstanding, and each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share owned. Because a majority of the stockholders voted in favor of the Actions pursuant to a written consent of stockholders, the Actions have been approved, and no proxies are being solicited. The Actions will not be effected until at least twenty days after the mailing of this Information Statement to all stockholders of record.

On February 10, 2006, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement by and between the Company, GSL Energy Corporation, a Maryland corporation (“GSL”), MABio

Materials Corporation, a Maryland corporation, and MAB Resources LLC, a Delaware corporation, and the stockholders of GSL named therein (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired the majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of GSL, par value $0.001 per share (“GSL Common Stock”), in exchange, on a one-for-one basis, for shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Company Common Stock”). A copy of the Agreement was filed with the Company’s Form 10-QSB for the three month period ended December 31, 2005.

On May 12, 2006, the parties to the Agreement completed the share exchange contemplated by the Agreement, and amended the Agreement to update certain disclosures on the schedules to the Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired 196,673,000 shares of GSL Common Stock from stockholders of GSL, which represents 97.31% of the issued and outstanding shares of GSL Common Stock, in exchange for 196,673,000 shares of Company Common Stock, which represents 87.26% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock.

(1)		Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these

As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on the date of this Proxy Statement. As of July 1, 2006, the Company had 225,373,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

REINCORPORATION AS A MARYLAND CORPORATION

Our stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares have consented in writing to reincorporate the Company from the state of Nevada to the state of Maryland. The following discussion summarizes certain aspects and consequences of the Maryland Reincorporation, which are related primarily to the differences between the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “Maryland Code”) and Title 7 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “Nevada Code”).

Principal Reasons For And Effects Of Changing The State Of Incorporation

The Board of Directors recommended that the Company become a Maryland corporation subject to the statutes of Maryland rather than Nevada because the Board believes this reincorporation provides the Company with a comprehensive, flexible legal structure in which to operate. Further, our Board of Directors believes that any direct benefit that Maryland law provides to a corporation also indirectly benefits the stockholders, who are the owners of the corporation.

Although there are several differences between the Nevada Code and the Maryland Code, the Board of Directors does not believe that these differences will have a significant impact on our operations.

The Board of Directors concluded that the potential benefits of the Maryland Reincorporation outweigh any possible disadvantages. Accordingly, the Board of Directors unanimously recommended stockholder approval of the Maryland Reincorporation, and stockholders owning a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock have consented in writing to this Action.

Comparison of Stockholder Rights

After we are reincorporated in Maryland, our corporate affairs will be governed by the Maryland Code, the Maryland Articles and the Maryland Bylaws. Although it is impracticable

to compare all of the aspects in which the Maryland Code and the Nevada Code differ, the following is a summary of certain significant differences and important similarities between provisions affecting holders of shares of the Company under the Nevada Code, the Nevada Articles and the Nevada Bylaws, and those affecting the stockholders of the Company under the Maryland Code, the Maryland Articles and the Maryland Bylaws. This discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Maryland Articles and the Maryland Bylaws which are attached to this proxy statement as Exhibits A and B, respectively, copies of the Nevada Articles, the Nevada Bylaws, which are available for inspection at the Company’s offices, and the Nevada Code and the Maryland Code. Also attached as Exhibit C is a copy of the Articles of Merger of Digital Ecosystems Corp. with and into PetroHunter Energy Corporation.

With respect to certain differences between the rights held by stockholders under the Nevada Code and those that they would have under the Maryland Code, the Maryland Articles and Maryland Bylaws have been structured so that the Maryland charter documents provide for substantially all of the same rights and obligations as our Nevada charter documents, and our management does not have any present intention of amending or otherwise altering the Maryland Articles or Maryland Bylaws. However, economic and/or business conditions and considerations may arise which may, in the opinion of our present or future directors, make it in our best interests to amend Maryland charter documents at some future date. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the Maryland charter documents will not be amended, including changes to provisions that directly affect stockholders. Stockholders also should refer to the Nevada Code and the Maryland Code with respect to the matters discussed in this Information Statement.

Capital Stock

The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock. All of the authorized shares have a par value of $.001 per share. As of July 10, 2006, there are 225,373,000 shares of common stock, and no shares of preferred stock, issued and outstanding.

Under the Maryland Articles, the Board of Directors has rights and powers with respect to the issuance of common stock that are substantially identical to those provided in the Nevada Articles.

As of the date of this Information Statement, the Company’s management is not aware of any specific effort by any party to accumulate our securities, other than for investment purposes, or to obtain control of the Company by merger, tender offer, solicitation in opposition to the Board of Directors or otherwise.

Dividends

Under the Nevada Code, the Board of Directors may make distributions to stockholders, unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation. However, no distribution may be made: (i) if it would cause the corporation to be unable to pay its debts as they become due; or (ii) except as otherwise specifically allowed by the articles of incorporation, if the corporation’s assets are less than the sum of its liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the

corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential stockholders whose rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.

Similarly, under the Maryland Code, the Company will be permitted to pay dividends to its stockholders from time to time as authorized by the Board of Directors. However, no dividend or other distribution may be made if, after giving effect to the distribution (i) the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or (ii) the Company’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus amounts payable to stockholders having preferential rights to assets in the event of dissolution of the Company.

Neither the Nevada charter documents nor the Maryland charter documents modify the respective code provisions concerning the payment of dividends.

Advance Notice Requirements for Presentation of Business and Nominations of Directors at Annual Meetings of Stockholders

Under the Nevada Code, meetings of stockholders and directors may be held within or without the state, as provided by the bylaws. If stockholders are required or authorized to take any action at a meeting, notice must be given in writing and be signed by the president, vice president, secretary, assistant secretary or any other person designated by the bylaws. The notice must state the purpose[s] of the meeting, time, place, and means of electronic communications, if any, by which stockholders shall be deemed to be present. Copies of the notice must be delivered personally, mailed, or given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the meeting.

Under the Nevada Code, directors must be elected at the annual meeting of the stockholders by a plurality of the votes cast at the election unless otherwise provided by the articles of incorporation, the bylaws, or by special meeting. Unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or bylaws, each director holds office after the expiration of his term until his successor is elected and qualified, or until he resigns or is removed.

Under the Maryland Code, unless the bylaws of the corporation provide otherwise, a regular or special meeting of the board of directors may be held at any place in or out of the state, or by means of remote communication. Notice shall be given as provided by the bylaws, and if the bylaws permit, shall be in writing or by electronic transmission and generally need not state the business to be transacted or purpose.

Under both the Nevada Code and the Maryland Code, any vacancies in the Board for any reason, and any directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors, may be filled by the Board, acting by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, and any directors so chosen will hold office during the remainder of the term of office of the resigning director. Under both Codes, the stockholders also have the ability to elect directors by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at a shareholder meeting.

Cumulative Voting For Election Of Directors

Under the Nevada Code and the Maryland Code, a corporation may provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors in its certificate of incorporation (in the case of a Nevada corporation) or charter (in the case of a Maryland corporation). Pursuant to the Nevada Articles and Maryland Articles, the Company does not permit cumulative voting in the election of directors. The absence of cumulative voting means that the holders of a majority of the shares voted at a meeting of stockholders may, if they so choose, elect all the directors to be elected at that meeting, and thus preclude minority stockholder representation on the board of directors.

Restrictions on Voting Rights

Under the Nevada Code, control shares are those outstanding voting shares of an issuing corporation which an acquiring person acquires, in an acquisition or offer to acquire, within ninety days immediately preceding the date when the acquiring person became an acquiring person. A controlling interest is the ownership of outstanding voting shares of an issuing corporation sufficient to enable the acquiring person, directly or indirectly and individually or in association with others, to exercise: one-fifth or more but less than one-third; one-third or more but less than a majority; or a majority or more, of all the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors.

The Nevada Code’s provision on acquisition of a controlling interest applies unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws in effect on the tenth day following the acquisition of a controlling interest provide that the provisions of those sections do not apply. The articles of incorporation, bylaws, or resolution adopted by the directors of the issuing corporation may impose stricter requirements on the acquisition of a controlling interest in the corporation than those provided by the Nevada Code.

Except as otherwise provided by the articles of incorporation, a resolution of the stockholders granting voting rights to the control shares acquired by an acquiring person must be approved by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the corporation.

The Maryland Code contains a control share acquisition statute which, in general terms, provides that where a stockholder acquires issued and outstanding shares of a corporation’s voting stock (referred to as control shares) within one of several specified ranges (one-tenth or more but less than one-third, one-third or more but less than a majority, or a majority or more), approval by stockholders of the control share acquisition must be obtained before the acquiring stockholder may vote the control shares. The required stockholder vote is two-thirds of all votes entitled to be cast, excluding “interested shares”, defined as shares held by directors of the corporation. A corporation may, however, opt out of the control share statute through a charter or bylaws provision, which the Company has done pursuant to the Maryland Bylaws. Accordingly, the Maryland control share acquisition statute will not apply to acquisitions of shares of the Company’s common stock. Though not expected, the Board of Directors could cause the Company to become subject to the Maryland control share acquisition statute by amending the Maryland Bylaws to eliminate the opt-out provision.

Number and Classification of Directors

Under the Nevada Code, a corporation may provide in its articles of incorporation or in its bylaws for a fixed or variable number of directors, and for the manner in which the number of directors may be increased or decreased.

Under the Maryland Code, each corporation shall have the number of directors provided in its charter until changed by the bylaws. The bylaws may authorize a majority of the entire board of directors to alter within specified limits the number of directors set by the charter or the bylaws, but the action may not affect the tenure of office of any director.

Removal of Directors

Under the Nevada Code, any director may be removed from office by the vote of stockholders representing not less than two-thirds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote. Any vacancy occurring in an office of the corporation by death, resignation, removal or otherwise, must be filled as the bylaws provide, or by the board of directors.

Under the Maryland Code, stockholders may remove any director, with or without cause, by an affirmative vote of a majority of all votes entitled to be cast generally for the election of directors unless the charter provides otherwise.

Filling Vacancies on the Board of Directors

Under the Nevada Code directors must be elected at the annual meeting of stockholders by a plurality of the votes cast at the election. Unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or bylaws, each director holds office after the expiration of his term until his successor is elected and qualified, or until he resigns or is removed.

Under the Maryland Code, stockholders may elect a successor to fill a vacancy on the board which results from the removal of a director. A director elected to fill such a vacancy serves for the balance of the term of the removed director.

Amendments of Charter Documents

Under the Nevada Code, any corporation may amend its articles of incorporation by: (1) adding to or diminishing its corporate powers and purposes; (2) increasing, decreasing, or reclassifying its authorized stock by changing the number, par value, preferences, relative, participating, optional or other rights, or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such rights of its shares. The corporation also may change its name or make any other change or alteration in its articles of incorporation that may be desired. All such changes may only contain such provisions as would have been lawful and proper to insert in the original articles of incorporation.

Under the Maryland Code, a corporation may amend its charter from time to time in any respect provided that the amendment contains only provisions which lawfully could be contained in its articles of incorporation at the time of amendment. If the amendment affects a change in stock or stockholder rights, it shall contain the provisions necessary to affect the change. If the amendment alters the contract rights of any outstanding stock and the charter does not reserve the right to make the amendment, any objecting stockholder whose rights are substantially adversely affected has the right to receive the fair value of his stock.

The Nevada Bylaws and Maryland Bylaws indicate that the Board of Directors shall have the power to adopt, amend, or repeal Bylaws.

Business Combinations With Certain Persons

The Nevada Code prohibits certain business combinations between a corporation and an “interested stockholder” (one beneficially holding, directly or indirectly, at least ten percent of the outstanding voting stock) for three years after such person became an interested stockholder. Nevada law will permit, however, business combinations that meet all requirements of the corporation’s articles of incorporation and either:

	•		are approved by the board of directors before the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder (or as to which the purchase of shares made by the interested stockholder had been approved by the board of directors before the date of purchase);

	•		are approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of stock representing a majority of the voting stock (excluding voting stock of the interested stockholder and its affiliates and associates) at a meeting called for such purpose no earlier than three years after the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder; or;

	•		the form and amount of consideration to be received by stockholders (excluding the interested stockholder) of the corporation satisfies certain tests and, with limited exceptions, the interested stockholder has not become the beneficial owner of additional voting shares of the corporation after becoming an interested stockholder and before the business combination is consummated.

The Company has made the lawful election under the Nevada Code to not be governed by the foregoing business combination provisions of Nevada law.

Like the Nevada Code, the Maryland Code contains a business combination statute. The Maryland business combination statute prohibits a business combination between a corporation and an interested stockholder (one who beneficially owns ten percent or more of the voting power) for a period of five years after the interested stockholder first becomes an interested stockholder, unless the transaction has been approved by the board of directors before the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder or the corporation has exempted itself from the statute pursuant to a charter provision. After the five-year period has elapsed, a

corporation subject to the statute may not consummate a business combination with an interested stockholder unless (1) the transaction has been recommended by the board of directors and (2) the transaction has been approved by (a) eighty percent of the outstanding shares entitled to be cast and (b) two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast other than shares owned by the interested stockholder. This approval requirement need not be met if certain fair price and terms criteria have been satisfied.

The Company has made the lawful election under the Maryland Code to not be governed by the Maryland business combination statute.

Stockholder Action By Written Consent

Under the Nevada Code, unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or the bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power.

However, under the Maryland Code, stockholder action by written consent must be signed by all stockholders; accordingly, any stockholder has the ability to block the action by electing not to sign the consent.

Under the Nevada and the Maryland Bylaws, no action can be taken by the stockholders except at an annual or special meeting of stockholders called in accordance with the Bylaws, or by the written consent of the shareholders in accordance with the applicable corporate statute.

Special Meetings Of Stockholders

The Nevada Code does not address the manner in which special meetings of stockholders may be called, but permits corporations to determine the manner in which meetings are called in their bylaws.

Under the Maryland Code, a special meeting of the stockholders may be called by the secretary of a corporation on the written request of stockholders entitled to cast at least 25% of all the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting. A request for a special meeting shall state the purpose of the meeting and the matters proposed to be acted on at the meeting. However, an entity may provide in its charter or bylaws a provision that requires the written request of greater or lesser of 25% of shareholders entitled to cast votes at such meeting, but this percentage may not be greater than a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting. The Company’s bylaws do not currently maintain such a provision.

Limitations On Liability Of Directors And Officers

The Nevada Code contains a provision stating that unless otherwise provided by the Code or the Articles of Incorporation, no director will be individually liable to the Company or its stockholders or creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act unless it is proven that:

The director’s act or failure to act constituted a breach of fiduciary duties; and the breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law.

The Maryland Code provides that an officer or director of the Company may not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for money damages, except to the extent:

•

it is proved that the person actually received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services, for the amount of the benefit or profit in money, property or services actually received;

	•		a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the person is entered in a proceeding based on a finding in the proceeding that the person’s action, or failure to act, was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding; or

	•		otherwise provided by the Maryland Code.

Indemnification Of Directors And Officers

Under the Nevada Code, a corporation may indemnify its directors, officers, employees and certain other individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings arising because of the person’s relationship to the corporation. Generally, the indemnification will cover expenses regardless of whether the action stems from a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative proceeding if the individual acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A similar standard applies in an action or suit by or in the right of the corporation (i.e., a stockholder derivative claim) except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense or settlement of such a proceeding. In cases involving the right of the corporation, the Nevada Code requires court approval before there can be any indemnification when the person seeking the indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. To the extent that a person otherwise eligible to be indemnified is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense in any action, suit or proceeding described above, indemnification for expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred is mandatory under the Nevada Code.

The Nevada Code provides that a corporation may pay the expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of that proceeding, provided that the corporation has received from the director or officer a written undertaking to repay the amount advanced if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for the expenses.

The Nevada Articles generally provide for the indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by the Nevada Code. The Nevada Articles further provide, consistent with the Nevada Code, that the right to indemnification conferred by

the Nevada Articles is not exclusive of any other right which a person may have under any statute, the Nevada Bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, this Certificate of Incorporation, or otherwise.

The Nevada Bylaws also generally provide for the indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents to the extent permitted by the Nevada Code. The Nevada Bylaws further provide that the Company shall advance all expenses incurred by an indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director, officer or employee; however, advancement of such expenses shall only be made upon delivery to the Company of an undertaking to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for the expenses. All rights to indemnification and advances generally shall be deemed to be contractual rights and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. The rights conferred to such persons shall not be exclusive of any other rights under any statute, provision of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

The Maryland Code permits a corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred unless it is proven that (1) the conduct of the person was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and the person acted in bad faith or with active and deliberate dishonesty; (2) the person actually received an improper personal benefit; or (3) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the person had reason to believe that his conduct was unlawful. The Maryland Code provides that where a person is a defendant in a derivative proceeding, the person may not be indemnified if the person is found liable to the corporation. The Maryland Code also provides that a person may not be indemnified in respect of any proceeding alleging improper personal benefit in which the person was found liable on the grounds that personal benefit was improperly received. The person found liable in the derivative proceeding or in the proceeding alleging improper personal benefit may petition a court to nevertheless order indemnification for expenses if the court determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances. Similar to the Nevada Code, the Maryland Code provides that unless otherwise provided in the corporation’s charter, a director or officer (but not an employee or agent) who is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceeding must be indemnified against reasonable expenses.

The Maryland Code provides that reasonable expenses incurred by a director, officer, employee or agent who is a party to a proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding if the corporation receives a written affirmation from the person to receive the advancement of that person’s good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification and a written undertaking by the person to repay the advanced amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she has not met the standard of conduct.

The Maryland Articles provide that the Company will indemnify and advance expenses to its directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent required or permitted by the Maryland Code. The Maryland Articles also provide, consistent with the Maryland Code, that the rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred by the Maryland

Articles are not exclusive of any other right which a person may have under any statute, the Maryland Articles, the Maryland Bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or the Board of Directors or otherwise.

The Maryland Bylaws also generally provide for the indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents to the extent permitted by the Maryland Code. The Maryland Bylaws further provide that the Company shall advance all expenses incurred by an indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director, officer or employee; however, advancement of such expenses shall only be made upon delivery to the Company of an undertaking to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for the expenses. All rights to indemnification and advances generally shall be deemed to be contractual rights and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. The rights conferred to such persons shall not be exclusive of any other rights under any statute, provision of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Inspection Of Books And Records

The Nevada Code provides that any person who has been a stockholder of record of a corporation for at least six months immediately preceding a demand, or any person holding, or thereunto authorized in writing by the holders of, at least five percent of all of the corporation’s outstanding shares, upon at least five days’ written demand, is entitled to inspect in person or by agent or attorney, during usual business hours, the Company’s articles of incorporation, and all amendments thereto; a copy of the company’s bylaws and all amendments thereto; and a stock ledger containing the names of all persons who are stockholders of the corporation, and if known, and the number of shares held by them respectively.

The Maryland Code provides that any stockholder may inspect and copy, during usual business hours, the corporation’s bylaws, minutes of the proceedings of stockholders, annual statements of affairs and any voting trust agreements on file at the corporation’s principal office. Additionally, any person who has been a holder of record for a minimum of six months or who owns at least 5% of the corporation’s outstanding shares has a right to (1) inspect the corporation’s books of account and stock ledger; (2) present to any officer or resident agent of the corporation a written request for a statement of its affairs; and (3) in the case of any corporation which does not maintain the original or a duplicate stock ledger at the corporation’s offices in Maryland, present to any officer or resident agent of the corporation a written request for a list of its stockholders.

Certain Anti-Takeover Effects

The Nevada Code contains certain “anti-takeover” provisions that apply to a Nevada corporation, unless the corporation elects not to be governed by such provisions in its Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws. Nevada corporate law prohibits a corporation from engaging in any “business combination” with any person that owns ten percent or more of its outstanding voting stock for a period of three years following the time that such stockholder obtained ownership of more than ten percent of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation. A business combination includes any merger, consolidation, or sale of substantially all of a corporation’s

assets. The three year waiting period does not apply, however, if the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in such stockholder owning more than ten percent of such stock before the stockholder obtained such ownership. Pursuant to the Company’s Bylaws, it has elected not to be governed by these regulations.

Similarly, the Maryland Code generally provides that a corporation may not engage in any business combination with any interested stockholder or any affiliate of the interested stockholder for a period of five years following the most recent date on which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless an exemption applies. The Maryland Code provides that a corporation can elect not to be governed by this regulation, and the Company has made this election (though the Company’s Board of Directors could at any time cause the Company to become subject to this control share statute by amending the Bylaws to change the opt-out provision).

Anti-takeover provisions in the Nevada and Maryland Codes and in the corporate governance structure of the Company could have the effect of discouraging an acquisition of the Company or stock purchases in furtherance of an acquisition, and could, under certain circumstances, discourage transactions which might otherwise have a favorable effect on the price of the Company’s common stock. These provisions may serve to make it more difficult to remove incumbent management and board members and may also discourage all attempts to acquire control not approved by the Board of Directors for any reason. As a result, stockholders who might desire to participate in, or benefit from, such a transaction might not have an opportunity to do so.

Dissenting Stockholders’ Rights of Appraisal

Under the Nevada Code, any stockholder is entitled to dissent from, and obtain payment of the fair value of his shares in the event of any of the following corporate actions: (a) consummation of a conversion or plan of merger if approval of the stockholders is required by the Code or articles of incorporation or if the domestic corporation is a subsidiary and is merged with the parent; (b) consummation of a plan of exchange to which the domestic corporation is a constituent party as the corporation whose subject owner’s interests will be acquired; (c) any corporate action taken pursuant to a vote of the stockholders to the extent that the articles of incorporation, bylaws, or a resolution of the board of directors provides that voting or nonvoting stockholders are entitled to dissent and obtain payment for their shares.

There is no right of dissent with respect to a plan of merger or exchange when it was either listed on a national securities exchange, included in the national market system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or held by at least 2,000 stockholders of record unless: (a) the articles of incorporation or the corporation issuing the shares provide otherwise; or (b) the holders of the class or series are required under the plan of merger or exchange to accept for the shares anything except: (1) cash, owner’s interests or owner’s interests and cash in lieu of fractional owner’s interests of: (I) the surviving or acquiring entity, or (II) any other entity which, at the effective date of the plan of merger or exchange, were either listed on a national

securities exchange, included in the national market system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by at least 2,000 holders of owner’s interests of records, or (2) a combination of cash and owner’s interests. There is no right of dissent for any holders of stock of the surviving domestic corporation if the plan of merger does not require action of the stockholders of the surviving domestic corporation.

Under the Maryland Code, objecting stockholders have the right to demand and receive payment of the fair value of the stockholder’s stock from the successor if: (1) the corporation consolidates or merges with another corporation; (2) the stockholder’s stock is to be acquired in a share exchange; (3) the corporation transfers its assets; (4) the corporation amends its charter to alter contract rights of any outstanding stock and substantially adversely affects the stockholder’s rights; or (5) other provisions govern.

Objecting stockholders shall file a written objection to the proposed transaction. Such a stockholder has no right to receive any dividends or distributions and ceases to have any rights as a stockholder with respect to that stock except the right to receive payment of its fair value. If the court finds the objecting stockholder is entitled to an appraisal of his stock, it shall appoint three disinterested appraisers to determine the fair value of the stock on terms and conditions the court considers proper.

Possible Disadvantages of the Maryland Reincorporation

Despite the belief of the Company’s Board of Directors that the Maryland Reincorporation is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, stockholders should be aware that many provisions of the Maryland Articles, the Maryland Bylaws and the Maryland Code have not received extensive judicial interpretation by the Maryland courts. The Company’s Board of Directors believes, however, that Maryland law will provide the Company with the comprehensive, flexible structure that it needs to operate effectively.

In the event that any of the provisions of this Article VIII (including any provision within a single sentence) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, the remaining provisions are severable and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Article IX

Interested Party Transactions

The following provisions are inserted for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and the same are in furtherance of and not in limitation of, the powers conferred by law:

No contract or other transaction of the Corporation with any other persons, firm or corporation in which this Corporation is interested, shall be affected or invalidated by the fact that any one or more of the directors or officers of this Corporation, individually or jointly with others, may be a party to or may be interested in any such contract or transaction so long as the contract or other transaction is approved by the Board of Directors in accordance with the Maryland Code. Each person who may become a director or officer of the Corporation is hereby relieved from any liability that might otherwise arise by reason of his or her contracting with the Corporation for the benefit of himself or herself or any firm or corporation in which he or she may be in any way interested.

Article X

Indemnification

The Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses to any and all directors, officers, employees and agents of the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by Section 2-418 of the

A-4

Maryland Code, as the same may be amended and supplemented, unless it is established that (i) the act or omission was material to the matter giving rise to the liability and was omitted in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (ii) the person actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services, or (iii) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the person had reasonable cause to believe the act or omission was unlawful. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under these Articles of Incorporation, any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such persons’ official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such directorship, office, employment or agency, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. Neither the repeal nor modification of this Article X, or the adoption of any provision to these Articles of Incorporation that is inconsistent with this Article X, shall eliminate, restrict or otherwise adversely affect any right or protection of any such person existing hereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal, modification or adoption of an inconsistent provision.

Article XI

The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in these Articles of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at the meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of

B-2

the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

5.2 Dividends, Distributions and Other Rights. For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 6. Quorum

A majority of the outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of the stockholders; provided, that where a separate vote by a class or classes or by a series of a class is required, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or classes or of such series of a class, present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to the vote on that matter. Shares of stock will be counted toward a quorum if they are either (i) present in person at the meeting or (ii) represented at the meeting by a valid proxy, whether the instrument granting such proxy is marked as casting a vote or abstaining, is left blank or does not empower such proxy to vote with respect to some or all matters to be voted upon at the meeting. If less than a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are represented at a meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. If a quorum is present or represented at a reconvened meeting following such an adjournment, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called. The stockholders present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

Section 7. Organization

At each meeting of the stockholders, the Chairman of the Board, or in his absence the person designated by the Board, shall act as chairman of the meeting.

The Secretary, or in his absence or in the event he shall be presiding over the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section, an Assistant Secretary or, in the absence of the Secretary and all of the Assistant Secretaries, any person appointed by the chairman of the meeting, shall act as secretary of the meeting.

Section 8. Voting

8.1 General Provisions. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or a resolution of the Board creating a series of stock, at each meeting of the stockholders, each holder of any share of any series or class of stock entitled to vote at such meeting shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock having voting power in respect of

B-3

each matter upon which a vote is to be taken, standing in his name on the stock ledger of the Corporation on the record date fixed as provided in these Bylaws for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting. In all matters other than the election of directors, if a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders, unless the vote of a greater number is required by these Bylaws, the Articles of Incorporation or the Maryland General Corporation Law. In determining the number of votes cast for or against a proposal, shares abstaining from voting on a matter (including elections) will not be treated as a vote for or against the proposal. A non-vote by a broker will be treated as if the broker never voted, but a non-vote by a stockholder will be counted as a vote “for” the management’s position. Where a separate vote by a class or classes or by a series of a class is required, if a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares of such class or classes or series of a class present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class or classes or series of a class. The provisions of this Section will govern with respect to all votes of stockholders except as otherwise provided for in these Bylaws, the Articles of Incorporation or the Maryland General Corporation Law.

8.2 Voting For Directors. At each election of directors the voting shall be by written ballot. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

8.3 Shares Held or Controlled by the Corporation. Shares of its own capital stock belonging to the Corporation, or to another corporation if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation is held by the Corporation, shall neither be entitled to vote nor counted for quorum purposes.

8.4 Proxies. A stockholder may vote by a proxy which is in writing or is transmitted electronically, including but not limited to, via telegram, cablegram, internet, interactive voice response system or other means of electronic transmission executed or authorized by the stockholder or by his attorney-in-fact. Any electronic transmission must set forth information from which it can be determined by the Corporation or the inspector that such electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Corporation. A proxy shall become invalid three years after the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A proxy with respect to a specified meeting shall entitle the holder thereof to vote at any reconvened meeting following adjournment of such meeting but shall not be valid after the final adjournment thereof.

Section 9. Inspectors

Prior to each meeting of stockholders, the Board shall appoint at least one inspector who is not a director, candidate for director or officer of the Corporation, who shall receive and determine the validity of proxies and the qualifications of voters, and receive, inspect, count and report to the meeting in writing the votes cast on all matters submitted to a vote at such meeting. In case of failure of the Board to make such appointments or in case of failure of any Inspector so appointed to act, the Chairman of the Board shall make such appointment or fill such

B-4

vacancies. Each Inspector, immediately before entering upon his duties, shall subscribe to an oath or affirmation faithfully to execute the duties of Inspector at such meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.

Section 10. List of Stockholders

The Secretary or other officer or agent having charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at said meeting, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares of each class and series registered in the name of each such stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. Such list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list required by this section, or the books of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any such meeting.

Section 11. Stockholder Proposals

At an annual meeting of stockholders, only such business shall be conducted, and only such proposals shall be acted upon, as shall have been properly brought before the annual meeting of stockholders (a) by, or at the direction of, the Board or (b) by a stockholder of the Corporation who complies with the procedures set forth in this Section 11. For business or a proposal to be properly brought before an annual meeting of stockholders by a stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than 120 days nor later than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be received by the Secretary not earlier than the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the 90th day prior to such annual meeting, or if later, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of an annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before an annual meeting of stockholders (i) a description, in 500 words or less, of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of the stockholders known by such stockholder to be supporting such proposal, (iii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by such stockholder on the date of such stockholder’s notice and by any other stockholders known by such stockholder to be supporting such proposal on the date of such stockholder’s notice,

B-5

(iv) a description, in 500 words or less, of any interest of the stockholder in such proposal, and (v) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to present the proposal specified in the notice. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 11.

The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that the business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures prescribed by this Section 11, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11 shall be interpreted or construed to require the inclusion of information about any such proposal in any proxy statement distributed by, at the direction of, or on behalf of, the Board.

Section 12. Conduct of Meeting

The Board may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board, the chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iii) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to only stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the chairman of the meeting shall determine; (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

Section 13. Written consent of Stockholders.

Except as provided in the following sentence, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting if a unanimous consent which sets forth the action is given in writing by each stockholder entitled to vote on the matter and is filed with the records of stockholder meetings. Unless the Articles of Incorporation provide otherwise, the holders of any class of the Corporation’s stock, including holders of the Corporation’s common stock, entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, may take action or consent to any action concerning election of directors by delivering a consent in writing of the stockholders entitled to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting of the stockholders if the Corporation gives notice of the action so taken to each stockholder not later than 10 days after the effective time of the action.

B-6

Section 14. Control Share Acquisition Act.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, Title 3, Subtitle 7 of the Maryland General Corporation Law (or any successor statute) shall not apply to any acquisition by any person of shares of stock of the Corporation. This Section 14 may be repealed, in whole or in part, at any time, whether before or after an acquisition of Control Shares (as defined in Section 3-701(d) of the Maryland General Corporation Law (or any successor provision)) and, upon such repeal, may, to the extent provided by any successor bylaw, apply to any prior or subsequent Control Share Acquisition (as defined in Section 3-701(d) of the Maryland General Corporation Law (or any successor provision)).

Nominations of persons for election to the Board may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders or special meeting of stockholders called by the Board for the purpose of electing directors (i) by or at the direction of the Board or (ii) by any stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors at such meeting who complies with the notice procedure set forth in this Section 3.

Any director may resign at any time upon written notice to the Chairman of the Board. Such resignation shall take effect on the date of receipt of such notice or at any later time specified therein; and the acceptance of such resignation, unless otherwise required by the terms thereof, shall not be necessary to make it effective.

Section 5. Removals

The notice of meeting shall state the time and place of the meeting but need not state the purpose thereof. Whenever any notice is required to be given to any director under the provisions of these Bylaws, the Articles of Incorporation or the Maryland General Corporation Law, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board or any committee appointed by the Board need be specified in the waiver of notice of such meeting. Attendance of a director at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not lawfully called or convened.

Section 10. Quorum and Manner of Acting

Except as otherwise provided by statute, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the presence of a majority of the total number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any regular or special meeting of the Board, and the act of a majority of the directors present at any such meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the

Board. In the absence of a quorum, a majority of the directors present may adjourn the meeting, from time to time, until a quorum is present. Notice of any such adjourned meeting need not be given.

Members of the Board, or any committee designated by the Board, may participate in any meeting of the Board or committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in such a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

Section 15. Interested Directors

No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers is a director or officer of this Corporation, or in which one of the directors or officers of this Corporation has a financial interest in such contract or transaction, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his or their votes are counted for such purpose, if: (1) the material facts as to his relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board or the committee, and

B-10

the Board or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; or (2) the material facts as to his relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (3) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board, a committee thereof or the stockholders. Common or interested directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board or of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

Section 4. Quorum and Manner of Acting

A person in whose name shares of stock stand on the books of the Corporation shall be deemed the owner thereof as regards the Corporation, and the Corporation shall not, except as expressly required by statute, be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such shares on the part of any other person whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof.

Section 3. Transfer Agents and Registrars

The Board may appoint responsible companies from time to time to act as transfer agents and registrars of the stock of the Corporation, as may be required by and in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Dividends, Surplus, Etc.

Except as otherwise provided by statute or the Articles of Incorporation, the Board may declare dividends upon the shares of its capital stock either (1) out of its surplus, or (2) in case there shall be no surplus, out of its net profits for the fiscal year, whenever, and in such amounts as, in its opinion, the condition of the affairs of the Corporation shall render it advisable. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property or in shares of the capital stock of the Corporation.

B-15

No distribution may be made if, after giving effect to the distribution, (1) the Corporation would not be able to pay indebtedness of the Corporation as the indebtedness becomes due in the usual course of business, or (2) the Corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus, unless the Articles of Incorporation permit otherwise, the amount that would be needed if the Corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of stockholders whose preferential rights on dissolution are superior to those receiving the distribution.

Article VIII
Seal

The Corporation may have a corporate seal which shall have inscribed thereon the name of the Corporation, the year of its organization and the words “Corporate Seal, Maryland.” The corporate seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed or affixed or in any other manner reproduced.

The fiscal year of the Corporation shall begin on the first day of April of each year, or on such other day as may be fixed from time to time by the Board.

Article X
Indemnification

Section 1. Right to Indemnification

Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director (as that term is used in this Article X only, to include directors elected or appointed pursuant to Article III of these Bylaws, Advisory Directors and Emeritus Directors acting at the request of the Board), officer or employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (hereinafter an “indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as such a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the full extent authorized by the Maryland General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), or by other applicable law as then in effect, against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to

B-16

the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 2 of this Article with respect to proceedings seeking to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of the Corporation. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an “advancement of expenses”); further provided, however, that, if the Maryland General Corporation Law requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an indemnitee in his capacity as a director, officer or employee (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee while a director, officer or employee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 1, or otherwise.

Section 2. Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit

If a claim under Section 1 of this Article X is not paid in full by the Corporation within 60 days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be twenty days, the indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, to the extent successful in whole or in part, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such suit. The indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to indemnification under this Article upon submission of a written claim (and, in an action brought to enforce a claim for an advancement of expenses, where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation), and thereafter the Corporation shall have the burden of proof to overcome the presumption that the indemnitee is not so entitled. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board, independent legal counsel or its stockholders), to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper in the circumstances, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, shall be a defense to the suit or create a presumption that the indemnitee is not so entitled.

Section 3. Nonexclusivity of Rights

The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article X shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Section 4. Insurance, Contracts and Funding

The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation

B-17

would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Maryland General Corporation Law. The Corporation may enter into contracts with any indemnitee in furtherance of the provisions of this Article and may create a trust fund, grant a security interest or use other means (including, without limitation, a letter of credit) to ensure the payment of such amounts as may be necessary to effect indemnification as provided in this Article.

Section 5. Majority Owned Subsidiaries

Any person who is or was serving as a director of a majority owned subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed, for purposes of this Article only, to be a director, officer or employee of the Corporation entitled to indemnification under this Article.

Section 6. Indemnification of Agents of the Corporation

The Corporation may, by action of the Board from time to time, grant rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to agents of the Corporation with the same scope and effect as the provisions of this Article with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors, officers and employees of the Corporation.

Article XI
Checks, Drafts, Bank Accounts, Etc.

Section 1. Checks, Drafts, Etc.; Loans

All checks, drafts or other orders for the payment of money, notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued in the name of the Corporation shall be signed by such officer or officers, agent or agents of the Corporation and in such manner as shall, from time to time, be determined by resolution of the Board. No loans shall be contracted on behalf of the Corporation unless authorized by the Board. Such authority may be general or confined to specific circumstances.

Section 2. Deposits

All funds of the Corporation shall be deposited, from time to time, to the credit of the Corporation in such banks, trust companies or other depositories as the Board may select, or as may be selected by any officer or officers, agent or agents of the Corporation to whom such power may, from time to time, be delegated by the Board; and for the purpose of such deposit, the appropriate officer or agent to whom such power may be delegated by the Board, may endorse, assign and deliver checks, drafts and other order for the payment of money which are payable to the order of the Corporation.

Article XII
Amendments

Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws may be altered or repealed, and new Bylaws may be made, by the affirmative vote, at any meeting of the Board, of a majority of the entire Board, subject to the rights of the stockholders of the Corporation to amend or repeal Bylaws made or amended by the Board by the affirmative vote of the holders of

B-18

record of a majority in number of shares of the outstanding stock of the Corporation present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders and entitled to vote thereon, provided that notice of the proposed action be included in the notice of such meeting.

Article XIII
Miscellaneous

All references and uses herein of the masculine pronouns “he” or “his” shall have equal applicability to and shall also mean their feminine counterpart pronouns, such as “she” or “her.”
