5
B. The corporation shall have and possess all the powers
permitted to corporations incorporated under said Hawaii Business Corporation
Act or any future similar law.
ARTICLE VI
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
A. If the corporation has only one shareholder, the Board of

shareholders, the Board of Directors shall have two or more directors. If the

Board of Directors shall not function, except to elect a new director who is a
resident of the State of Hawaii.
B. The members of the Board of Directors shall be elected or
appointed at such times, in such manner and for such terms as may be prescribed
by the By-Laws, which also may provide for the removal of directors and the
filling of vacancies and may provide that the remaining members of the Board of
6
Directors, although less than a quorum thereof, may by the affirmative vote of
the majority of such remaining members fill vacancies in the Board of Directors.
The directors need not be shareholders of the corporation.
C. The Board of Directors shall have full power to control and
direct the business and affairs of the corporation, subject, however, to
resolutions adopted by the shareholders and to any limitations which may be set
forth in statutory provisions, in these Articles or in the By-Laws. The Board of
Directors, without the approval of the shareholders of the corporation, or of

debts, even though as a result thereof the amount of the corporation's
indebtedness may exceed its capital stock.
ARTICLE VII
OFFICERS
A. The officers of the corporation shall consist of a
President, one or more Senior Vice Presidents and one or more Vice Presidents, a

duties in the management of the corporation as may be prescribed by the By-Laws,
or as may be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors not inconsistent
with the By-Laws.
ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNITY
(A) The corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is
a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by
reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the
corporation, or is
8
or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a
manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of this corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of such person was
unlawful. The termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order,
settlement, 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 the person reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of this corporation, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the conduct
of such person was unlawful.
(B) The corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is
a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a
judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a
director or
9
officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense
or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a
manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of this corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no indemnification
shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person
shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the
performance of such person's duty to this corporation unless and only to the
extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought or any other
court having jurisdiction in the premises shall determine upon application that,
despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of
the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses which such court shall deem proper.
(C) To the extent that a director or officer of the
corporation or a person serving at the request of the corporation as a director
or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise has been
10
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or
proceeding referred to in paragraph (A) or paragraph (B) of this Article, or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
such person in connection therewith.
(D) Any indemnification under paragraph (A) or paragraph (B)
of this Article shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director or
officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraph (A) or paragraph (B). Such
determination shall be made (1) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of
a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or
proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion to the corporation, or (3) by a majority vote of
the shareholders, or (4) by the court in which such action, suit or proceeding
was pending upon application made by this corporation or the person seeking
indemnification or the attorney or other person rendering services in connection
with the defense, whether or not such application is opposed by this
corporation.
11
(E) Expenses incurred by a director of the corporation in
defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the
corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or
proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director to
repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be determined that the director is
entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this Article.
Expenses incurred by a person other than a director of the corporation in
defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the
corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or
proceeding as authorized by the Board of Directors in a particular case upon
receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount
unless it shall ultimately be determined that such person is entitled to be
indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this Article.
(F) Any indemnification pursuant to this Article shall not be
deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may
be entitled under any by-law, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise, both as to action in a person's official capacity and as
to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as
12
to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the
benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.
(G) The corporation shall have the power to purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer
of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred
by such person in any such capacity or arising out of the status of such person
as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such
person against such liability under the provisions of this Article. Any such
insurance may be procured from any insurance company designated by the Board of
Directors in which the corporation may have an equity or other interest, through
stock ownership or otherwise.
ARTICLE IX
BY-LAWS
The initial By-Laws of the corporation shall be adopted by its
Board of Directors. The power to alter, amend or repeal the By-Laws or adopt
13
new By-Laws, subject to repeal or change by action of the shareholders, shall be
vested in the Board of Directors.
ARTICLE X
AMENDMENT
These Articles may be amended from time to time in the manner
provided by law.
