2. Preferred . The Preferred shall be issued in one or more series.

The authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each series shall include, without limitation thereto, the determination of any or all of the following, and the Shares of each series may vary from the Shares of any other series in the following respects:

(a) the number of Shares constituting such series and the designation thereof to distinguish the Shares of such series from the Shares of all other series;

(b) the annual dividend rate on the Shares of that series and whether such dividends shall be cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends shall accumulate;

(c) the redemption price or prices for the particular series, if redeemable, and the terms and conditions of such redemption;

(d) the preference, if any, of Shares of such series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation;

The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

(b) indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal thereof.

(c) Expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or criminal preceding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if he or she is ultimately found not to be entitled to indemnification by the Corporation.

(d) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided pursuant to this Article are not exclusive, and the Corporation may make any other or further indemnification or advancement of expenses of any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, under any bylaw, agreement vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.
