The annual meeting of the stockholders for the election of Directors and for the transaction of general business shall be held on any date as determined year to year by the Board of Directors. The time and location of the meeting shall be determined by the Board of Directors.

The Chief Executive Officer of the Company shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, an annual report containing a full and correct statement of the affairs of the Company, including a balance sheet and a financial statement of operations for the preceding fiscal year, which shall be submitted to the stockholders at the annual meeting.

Section 2.—Special Meeting.

Special meetings of the stockholders may be held in the City of Baltimore or in any county in which the Company provides service or owns property upon call by the Chairman of the Board, if one is elected, the President, or a majority of the Board of Directors whenever they deem expedient, or upon the written request of the holders of shares entitled to not less than twenty-five percent of all the votes entitled to be cast at such a meeting. Such request of the stockholders shall state the purpose or purposes of the meeting and the matters proposed to be acted on thereat and shall be delivered to the Secretary, who shall inform such stockholders of the reasonably estimated cost of preparing and mailing such notice of the meeting, and upon payment to the Company of such costs the Secretary shall give notice stating the purpose or purposes of the meeting to all stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting. No special meeting need be called upon the request of the holders of the shares entitled to cast less than a majority of all votes entitled to be cast to such meeting, to consider any matter which is substantially the same as a matter voted upon at any special meeting of the stockholders held during the preceding twelve months. The business at all special meetings shall be confined to that specifically named in the notice thereof.

Section 4.—Organization of Meeting.

All meetings of the stockholders shall be called to order by the Chairman of the Board, or if one is not elected or is absent, by the President, or in his or her absence by a Vice President, or in the case of the absence of such officers, then by any stockholder, whereupon the meeting shall organize by electing a chairman. The Secretary of the Company, if present, shall act as secretary of the meeting, unless some other person shall be elected by the meeting to so act. An accurate record of the meeting shall be kept by the secretary thereof, and placed in the record books of the Company.

Section 5.—Quorum.

At any meeting of the stockholders, the presence in person or by proxy of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes thereat shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If a quorum be not present at any meeting, holders of a majority of the shares of stock so present or represented may adjourn the meeting either sine die or to a date certain.

Section 6.—Voting.

At all meetings of the stockholders, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock standing in his or her name and, when the preferred or preference stock is entitled to vote, such number of votes as shall be provided in the charter of the Company for each share of preferred and preference stock standing in his or her name, and the votes shall be cast by stockholders in person or by lawful proxy.

Section 7.—Judge of Election and Tellers.

The Directors, at a regular or special meeting of stockholders, may (but shall not be required to) appoint a Judge of Election and two Tellers to serve at each meeting of stockholders.

It shall be the duty of the Tellers to receive the ballots of all the holders of stock entitled to vote and present at a meeting either in person or by proxy, and to count and tally said ballots by the official record of stockholders of the Company, or by a summary prepared therefrom and certified by the Stock Transfer Agent or the Secretary of the Company showing the number of shares of common and, if entitled to vote, preferred and preference stock owned of record by each stockholder, who may be designated therein by name, code number, or otherwise, and certify them to the Judge of Election, and the said Judge shall communicate in writing the result of the balloting so certified by the Tellers to the chairman who shall at once announce the same to the meeting. This certificate, signed by the Tellers and countersigned by the Judge, shall be duly recorded as part of the minutes of the meeting and filed among the records of the Company.

Section 8.—Record Date for Stockholders and Closing of Transfer Books.

The Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a date as the record for the determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of, or to vote at, any meeting of stockholders, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or entitled to the allotment of any rights, or for any other

 

2


proper purpose. Such date in any case shall not be more than ninety days (and in the case of a meeting of stockholders not less than ten days) prior to the date on which the particular action requiring such determination of stockholders is to be taken. Only stockholders of record on such date shall be entitled to notice of or to vote at such meeting or to receive such dividends or rights, as the case may be. In lieu of fixing a record date, the Board of Directors may close the stock transfer books of the Company for a period not exceeding twenty days or less than ten days preceding the date of any meeting of stockholders or not exceeding twenty days preceding any other of the above mentioned events.
