The amendments streamline the by-laws related to the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chairman of the Executive Committee. A description of each provision adopted or changed by amendment and, if applicable, the previous provision, is set forth below.

Chairman of the Board (Section 3.3). This new section, formerly Section 5.8, was moved from Article 5 (Officers) to Article 3 (Directors) and the powers and duties of the Chairman of the Board were amended to consist of presiding over meetings of the Board of Directors and performing such other duties as may be assigned to the Chairman of the Board from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Officers (Section 5.1). References to the Chairman of the Board and the Chairman of the Executive Committee were deleted from this section. In addition, language was added to clarify that additional officers of the Company may include one or more members of the Office of the President.

Chairman of the Board (Former Section 5.8). This section was deleted from Article 5 (Officers), moved to Article 3 (Directors) and amended as described above.

Chairman of the Executive Committee (Former Section 5.10). This section was deleted.

Loans (Section 6.2). A reference to the Chairman of the Board was deleted from this section.

Certificates; Uncertificated Shares (Section 7.1). A reference to the Chairman of the Board was deleted from this section.

Voting of Shares Held (Article 12). References to the Chairman of the Board were deleted from this article.

Section numbering was updated in Article 3 to reflect the addition of new Section 3.3 and in Article 5 to reflect the deletion of former Sections 5.8 and 5.10. In addition, cross-references in Sections 2.8(c), 3.16, 4.1(c) and 4.2(b) were updated to reflect this revised section numbering.
