(a) |
three billion nine hundred million (3,900,000,000) shall be designated common shares with a par value of U.S. $0.001 per share; and
|
(b) |
One hundred million (100,000,000) shall be designated preferred shares with a par value of U.S. $0.001 per share. The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) shall have the authority to issue from time to
time of one or more classes of preferred shares with one or more series within any class thereof, with such voting powers, full or limited, or without voting powers and with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional
or special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereon as shall be set forth in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board providing for the issuance of such preferred shares.
|
(a)
|
The number of directors constituting the entire Board shall be not less than one, as fixed from time to time by the vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3rd) of the
entire Board; provided, however, that the number of directors shall not be reduced so as to shorten the term of any director at the time in office. The phrase “two-thirds (2/3rd) of the entire Board”
as used in these Articles of Incorporation shall be deemed to refer to two-thirds (2/3rd) of the number of directors constituting the Board as provided in or pursuant to this Section 4.1(a), without
regard to any vacancies then existing.
|
(b) |
At any time that the Board is comprised of at least three members, the Board shall be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as the then total number of directors constituting the entire Board
permits, with the term of office of one or another of the three classes expiring each year. As soon as practicable after the Board is comprised of three or more members, the Board shall be divided into three classes, with the term of office
of the first class to expire at the first annual meeting of shareholders held after the Board is comprised of three or more members, the term of office of the second class to expire at the second annual meeting of shareholders held after the
Board is comprised of three or more members and the term of office of the third class to expire at the third annual meeting of shareholders held after the Board is comprised of three or more members. Commencing with the first annual meeting
of shareholders, the directors elected at an annual meeting of shareholders to succeed those whose terms then expire shall be identified as being directors of the same class, if any, as the directors whom they succeed, and each of them shall
hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders (assuming the Board is not classified) or the third succeeding annual meeting of shareholders if the Board is then classified, and until such director’s successor is elected and has
qualified. No change in the date of any annual meeting shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. If the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain or attain a
number of directors in each class as nearly equal as reasonably possible, but no decrease in the number of directors may shorten the term of any incumbent director. Any vacancies in the Board for any reason, and any created directorships
resulting from any increase in the number of directors, may be filled by the vote of not less than a majority of the members of the Board then in office, although less than a quorum, and any directors so chosen shall hold office until the
next election of the class for which such directors shall have been chosen and until their successors shall be elected and qualified.
|
(c) |
Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Articles of Incorporation or the bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”) (and notwithstanding the fact that some lesser percentage may be specified by law, these Articles
of Incorporation or the Bylaws), any director or the entire Board may be removed at any time, (i) for cause by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast at a meeting of shareholders by the holders of shares entitled to vote thereon
(considered for this purpose as one class) or by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board or (ii) without cause by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast at a meeting of shareholders by the holders of shares
entitled to vote thereon, considered for this purpose as one class (or by written consent in accordance with Section 7.1). Cumulative voting, as defined in Division 7, Section 71(2) of the BCA, shall not be used to remove directors.
|
(d) |
Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election. Cumulative voting, as defined in Division 7, Section 71(2) of the
BCA, shall not be used to elect directors.
|
(e) |
Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws (and notwithstanding the fact that some lesser percentage may be specified by law, these Articles of Incorporation or the
Bylaws), the affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3rd) or more of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by holders of shares entitled to vote in the election of directors (considered for this purpose
as one class) shall be required to amend, alter, change or repeal this Section 4.1.
|
(a) |
The Company may not engage in any Business Combination with any Interested Shareholder for a period of three years following the time of the transaction in which the person became an Interested Shareholder, unless:
|
(1) |
prior to such time, the Board approved either the Business Combination or the transaction which resulted in the shareholder becoming an Interested Shareholder; or
|
(2) |
upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the shareholder becoming an Interested Shareholder, the Interested Shareholder owned at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the Voting Stock of the Company
outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of Voting Stock outstanding those shares or equity interests owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock
plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares or equity interests held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
|
(3) |
at or subsequent to such time, the Business Combination is approved by the Board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of shareholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of the holders of
at least two-thirds (2/3rd) of the outstanding Voting Stock that is not owned by the Interested Shareholder.
|
(b) |
The restrictions contained in this Article V shall not apply if:
|
(1) |
A shareholder becomes an Interested Shareholder inadvertently and (i) as soon as practicable divests itself of ownership of sufficient shares or equity interests so that the shareholder ceases to be an Interested
Shareholder; and (ii) would not, at any time within the three-year period immediately prior to a Business Combination between the Company and such shareholder, have been an Interested Shareholder but for the inadvertent acquisition of
ownership; or
|
(2) |
The Business Combination is proposed prior to the consummation or abandonment of and subsequent to the earlier of the public announcement or the notice required hereunder of a proposed transaction which (i)
constitutes one of the transactions described in the following sentence; (ii) is with or by a person who either was not an Interested Shareholder during the previous three years or who became an Interested Shareholder with the approval of the
Board; and (iii) is approved or not opposed by a majority of the members of the Board then in office (but not less than one) who were directors prior to any person becoming an Interested Shareholder during the previous three years or were
recommended for election or elected to succeed such directors by a majority of such directors. The proposed transactions referred to in the preceding sentence are limited to:
|
(A) |
a merger or consolidation of the Company (except for a merger in respect of which, pursuant to the BCA, no vote of the shareholders of the Company is required);
|
(B) |
a sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions), whether as part of a dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Company or of any direct or
indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Company (other than to any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary or to the Company) having an aggregate market value equal to fifty percent (50%) or more of either the aggregate market value of
all of the assets of the Company determined on a consolidated basis or the aggregate market value of all the outstanding common shares of the Company; or

association or other entity shall be presumed to have control of such entity, in the absence of proof by a preponderance of the evidence to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a presumption of control shall not apply where such
person holds Voting Stock, in good faith and not for the purpose of circumventing this provision, as an agent, bank, broker, nominee, custodian or trustee for one or more owners who do not individually or as a group have control of such
entity.
|

“Interested Shareholder” means any person (other than the Company and any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Company) that (i) is the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding Voting Stock of the
Company, or (ii) is an affiliate or associate of the Company and was the owner of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Company at any time within the three-year period immediately prior to the date on which it
is sought to be determined whether such person is an Interested Shareholder; and the affiliates and associates of such person; provided, however, that the term “Interested Shareholder” shall not include any person whose ownership of shares in
excess of the fifteen percent (15%) limitation set forth herein is the result of action taken solely by the Company; provided that such person shall be an Interested Shareholder if thereafter such person acquires additional shares of Voting
Stock of the Company, except as a result of further Company action not caused, directly or indirectly, by such person. For the purpose of determining whether a person is an Interested Shareholder, the Voting Stock of the Company deemed to be
outstanding shall include Voting Stock deemed to be owned by the person through application of paragraph 6 below, but shall not include any other unissued shares which may be issuable pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding,
or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Petros Panagiotidis, his affiliates and associates shall not be considered an Interested Shareholder.
|

exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, warrants or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of shares or equity interests tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by such
person or any of such person’s affiliates or associates until such tendered shares or equity interests are accepted for purchase or exchange; or (B) the right to vote such shares or equity interests pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or
understanding; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of any shares or equity interests because of such person’s right to vote such shares or equity interests if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such
shares or equity interests arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made to ten (10) or more persons; or
|
(iii) |
Has any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in item (B) of subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph),

Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws (and notwithstanding the fact that some lesser percentage may be specified by law, these Articles of Incorporation or the
Bylaws), the affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3rd) or more of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by holders of shares entitled to vote in the election of directors (considered for this purpose
as one class) shall be required to amend, alter, change or repeal this Article V.
