ARTICLE I

Shareholders

 

Section 1. Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of shareholders shall be held for the election of directors on such date, and at such time and place as the Board of Directors may, from time to time, determine. Any other proper business may be transacted at an annual meeting. If the annual meeting is not held on the date designated, it may be held as soon thereafter as convenient and shall be called the annual meeting.

 

Section 2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders, for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by the Laws of the State of Florida, may be called by the President or the Board of Directors. The shareholders do not have the authority to call a special meeting of the shareholders.

 

Section 3. Shareholder Proposals/Nominees.

 

a. Shareholder Proposals. Shareholders seeking to place shareholder proposals on the agenda for a shareholders’ meeting must (i) notify the Corporation of such proposal not less than Thirty (30) nor more than Sixty (60) days prior to the date of the meeting; provided, however, that if the Corporation provides shareholders with less than Forty (40) days advance notice of the date of the meeting, the shareholder notice must be given no later than the close of business on the Tenth (10th) day following the day the Corporation’s notice was mailed or publicly disclosed. Such notice must provide the Corporation with adequate information regarding the proposal.
   
b. Shareholder Director Nominees. Shareholders director nominations must (i) be in writing and contain adequate information about the nominee; and (ii) be received by the secretary of the Corporation not less than Thirty (30) nor more than Sixty (60) days prior to the date of the meeting at which Directors will be elected; provided, however, that if the Corporation provides shareholders with less than Forty (40) days advance notice of the date of the meeting, the shareholder notice must be given no later than the close of business on the Tenth (10th) day following the day the Corporation’s notice was mailed or publicly disclosed.

 

Section 4. Notice of Meetings. Whenever shareholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting will be given that states the place, date and hour of the meeting, and in the case of a special meeting, the purpose(s) for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the written notice of any meeting will be given not less than Ten (10) nor more than Sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each shareholder entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, such notice will be deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the shareholder at his or her address as it appears in the records of the Corporation.

 

Section 5. Waiver of Notice. A shareholder may waive notice of any meeting; provided that a shareholder’s attendance at a meeting shall constitute waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the shareholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business to be transacted at the meeting, and not for the purpose of objecting to the purpose of the meeting.

 

Section 6. Adjournments. Any meeting of shareholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than Thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, pursuant to Section 1.4, notice of the adjourned meeting will be given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

 

 

 

 

Section 7. Record Date.

 

a. Determination of Record Date. For purposes of determining the number and identity of shareholders for any purpose, the Board of Directors may fix a date in advance as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, provided that the record date may not precede the date of the resolution fixing the record date. The record date may not be more than Sixty (60) days prior to the date that the particular action requiring the determination of shareholders is to occur. If to determine the shareholders entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a meeting of shareholders, the record date may not be fewer than Ten (10) days prior to the meeting. The record date for determining shareholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto. A determination of shareholders of record entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a meeting of shareholders will apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.
   
b. Failure to Fix Record Date. 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, or to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which the notice is mailed or the Board of Directors resolution declaring the dividend is adopted, as the case may be, will be the record date for such determination of shareholders.

 

Section 8. List of Shareholders Entitled to Vote. At least Ten (10) days before each meeting of shareholders, the officer or agent charged with overseeing the stock transfer books of the Corporation will compile a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting, or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each. Such list will be kept on file at the Corporation’s principal office for the Ten (10) days before the meeting and will be subject to the inspection of any shareholder during that Ten (10) day period during normal business hours for any purpose related to the meeting and during the meeting.

 

Section 9. Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, a majority of the outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum at a meeting of shareholders. If less than a majority of the outstanding shares are represented at the 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 such adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. The shareholders present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough shareholders to leave less than a quorum.

 

Section 10. Voting.

 

a. One Vote Per Share. Unless otherwise provided by the Articles of Incorporation (or action of the Board of Directors as provided therein) or these Bylaws, each outstanding share entitled to vote will be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareholders.
   
b. Shares Held By Other Than the Record Owner. Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian or conservator may be voted by him or her, in person or by proxy, without the transfer of such shares into his or her name. Shares held in the name of a trustee may be voted by him or her, in person or by proxy, only if the shares are transferred into the trustee’s name. Shares held in the name of, by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by the receiver without transferring the shares into the receiver’s name if authority to do so is evidenced in an order from the court that appointed the receiver. A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote his or her shares until the shares are transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter, the pledgee will be entitled to vote the shares so transferred. Shares belonging to the Corporation or held by it in a fiduciary capacity may not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting, and will not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given time.

 

Section 11. Proxies.

 

a. General. At all meetings of shareholders, a shareholder may vote by proxy. Proxies must be written, signed by the shareholder or by his or her duly authorized attorney-in-fact, and filed with the Secretary of the Corporation before or at the time of a meeting where a proxy is granted. No proxy is valid after Six (6) months from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy or coupled with an interest.
   
b. Irrevocable Proxies. A proxy may be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.
   
c. Revocation of a Proxy. A shareholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or by delivering a proxy in accordance with applicable law bearing a later date to the Secretary of the Corporation.

 

 

 

 

Section 12. Shareholder Action by Written Consent Without a Meeting.

 

a. Action. Any action required 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, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

 

ARTICLE II

Board of Directors

 

Section 1. Number, Qualifications. The Board of Directors shall consist of that number of directors as are set from time to time by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board of Directors. A director will hold office until his or her successor is elected and qualified. Directors need not be shareholders of the corporation.

 

Section 2. Election; Resignation; Vacancies. The Board of Directors will initially consist of the persons designated by the Incorporator, and each director so elected will hold office until the first annual meeting of shareholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified. At the first annual meeting of shareholders, the shareholders will elect directors to the Board of Directors. A director may resign at any time on written notice to the Corporation. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors, whether by reason of death, resignation, removal, or an increase in the number of directors, may be filled by the affirmative vote of the majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, or by election at an annual meeting or at a special meeting of the shareholders called for that purpose. A director elected to fill a vacancy will be elected for the unexpired term of his predecessor in office.

 

Section 3. Regular Meetings. A regular meeting of the Board of Directors for the election of officers and the transaction of any other business that may properly come before the meeting shall be held immediately after, and at the same place as, each annual meeting of shareholders, if a quorum of directors is then present or as soon thereafter as may be convenient. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held at such places within or without the State of Florida and at such times as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine. The Board of Directors may provide, by resolution, the date, time and place for the holding of additional regular meetings without other notice than such resolution.

 

Section 4. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by or at the request of the President or any director. The person(s) authorized to call special meetings of the Board of Directors may fix any place, within or without the State of Florida, to hold a special meeting of the Board of Directors. Notice of a special meeting must be given to each director by the person(s) calling the meeting at least Two (2) days before the meeting.


Section 5. Waiver of Notice. A director may waive notice of any meeting. A director’s attendance at a meeting shall constitute waiver of notice of such meeting; provided that, when a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business to be transacted at the meeting, the director will not be deemed to have waived notice of such meeting.

 

Section 6. Telephonic Meetings Permitted. Members of the Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may participate in a meeting thereof by means of telephonic conference, or similar communications equipment that permits all persons participating in the meeting to hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Bylaw will constitute presence at such meeting.

 

Section 7. Quorum. Vote Required for Action. At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the whole Board of Directors will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Unless required by the Laws of the State of Florida, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the vote of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be the act of the Board of Directors. If less than a majority is present at a meeting, a majority of the directors present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. Once a quorum has been established at a duly organized meeting, the Board of Directors may continue to transact corporate business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough members to leave less than a quorum.

 

 

 

 

Section 8. Action of the Board of Directors. The vote of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors, unless the question or action is one upon which a different vote is required by express provision of statute, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, in which case such provision shall govern the vote on the decision of such question or action. Each director present shall have one vote.

 

Section 9. Payment of Expenses. By resolution of the Board of Directors, directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors. Directors may be paid also either a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated salary as director. Such payment will not preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefore.

 

Section 9. Dissent to Corporate Action. A director who is present at a meeting of the Board of Directors at which action on any corporate matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless he or she (i) enters his or her dissent in the minutes of the meeting, (ii) files written dissent to such action with the Secretary of the meeting before adjournment, or (iii) expresses such dissent by written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation within One (1) day after the adjournment of the meeting. The right to dissent shall not apply to a director who voted in favor of such action.

 

Section 10. Action by Written Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting if a majority of the Board of Directors sign a written consent with respect to such action. Such consent shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors.

 

ARTICLE III

Committees

 

Section 1. Committees. The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board of Directors, designate one or more committees, each to consist of one or more of the directors. The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. In the absence or disqualification of a member of the committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not constituting a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in place of any such absent or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent permitted by the Laws of the State of Florida and to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors, will have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers that may require it.

 

Section 2. Committee Rules. Unless the Board of Directors otherwise provides, each committee designated by the Board of Directors may make, alter and repeal rules for the conduct of its business. In the absence of such rules, each committee will conduct its business pursuant to Article II of these Bylaws.

 

ARTICLE IV

If the election of officers is not held at such meeting, it will be held as soon thereafter as convenient. Each officer will hold office until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her death, resignation or removal.

 

Section 3. Removal. Any officer, elected or appointed, may be removed by the Board of Directors, but such removal shall be without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the person so removed.

Section 8. Treasurer. The Treasurer has custody of all monies and securities of the Corporation, keeps regular books of account, disburses the funds of the Corporation, renders account to the Board of Directors of all transactions made on behalf of the Corporation and of the financial condition of the Corporation from time to time as the Board requires, and performs all duties incident to the office or properly required by the Board of Directors.

 

Section 9. Additional Officers. The Corporation may have such additional officers as the Board of Directors deems necessary or appropriate including, without limitation, a Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Assistant Vice Presidents, Assistant Secretaries and Assistant Treasurers. Each such officer shall perform those duties as determined or assigned by the Board of Directors.

 

Section 10. Salaries. The salaries of all officers will be fixed by the Board of Directors, and may be changed from time to time by a majority vote of the Board of Directors.

 

ARTICLE V

Certificate of Shares

 

Section 1. Certificates. The Corporation may issue certificates representing shares of the Corporation, which will be in the form determined by the Board of Directors, and will be signed by the President of the Corporation or any other officers permitted by law, certifying the number of shares owned by him or her in the Corporation. Any of or all the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. If any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed, or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon, a certificate ceases to hold that position before the certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if the officer, transfer agent or registrar continued to hold that position at the date of issue.

a. Right to Indemnification Insurance. Every person who was or is a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, or as its representative in another enterprise (an “Indemnitee”), shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent legally permissible under the laws of the State of Florida against all judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid in settlement and costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by him or her in connection therewith, subject to the standards of conduct, the procedures, and other applicable provisions of the Laws of the State of Florida. Such right of indemnification is a contract right which may be enforced in any manner desired by such person.
