Section 2.02  Annual Meeting.  Unless Board Directors are elected by written consent in lieu of an annual meeting as permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (“Delaware Law”), an annual meeting of stockholders shall be held for the election of Board Directors and to transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.  Stockholders may, unless the certificate of incorporation otherwise provides, act by written consent to elect Board Directors; provided, however, that if such consent is less than unanimous, such action by written consent may be in lieu of holding an annual meeting only if all of the directorships to which Board Directors could be elected at an annual meeting held at the effective time of such action are vacant and are filled by such action.
 
 
 

 
 
Section 2.03  Special Meetings.   Special meetings of the stockholders of the corporation, for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by Delaware Law or the certificate of incorporation, may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, a majority of the Board of Directors or by the stockholders.
