It was pointed out to me that introduction of proxies would most |
| 11 |
likely require reinstatement of section 3.11: |

This would be an intrusive modification of the bylaws, so I retract |
| 14 |
my proposal a) above. |

My motion therefore is only to lower the member quorum in section 3.9 |
| 17 |
to the default value provided by the law, namely 1/10: |

|
| 19 |
| Except as otherwise required by law, by the Certificate of |
| 20 |
| Incorporation or by these Bylaws, one-tenth (1/10) of the members |
| 21 |
| entitled to vote, represented in person, shall constitute a quorum |
| 22 |
| at a meeting of members. |
