This
Agreement and Plan of Merger is made and entered into effective as of

(“Parent”), Pixx Acquisition Corp., a Delaware
corporation (“Acquisition Corp.”), which is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and Pixxures, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”). Unless otherwise
specified, capitalized terms shall have the meanings set forth in Section 10
hereof.
RECITALS
Whereas,
the Board of Directors of each of Acquisition Corp., Parent and the Company
have
each determined that it is fair to and in the best interests of the shareholders
of their respective corporations for Acquisition Corp. to be merged with and
into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company
being the Surviving Corporation (as defined below in Section 1.1), upon the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and
Whereas,
the Board of Directors of Acquisition Corp. and the Board of Directors of the
Company have approved the Merger in accordance with the General Corporation
Law
of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) and upon the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, in the Certificate of
Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”), attached as
Exhibit A hereto, and the Board of Directors
of Parent has also
approved the Merger, this Agreement and the Certificate of Merger.
Now,
Therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants
hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.
|
The
Merger.
|
1.1 Merger. Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Certificate of Merger,
Acquisition Corp. shall be merged with and into the Company in accordance with
Section 251 of the DGCL. At the Effective Time (as hereinafter
defined), the separate legal existence of Acquisition Corp. shall cease, and
the
Company shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter
referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall
continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Delaware under
the name Pixxures, Inc.
1.2 Effective
Time. The Merger shall become effective upon the filing of
the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware,
in accordance with Section 251 of the DGCL. The time at which the
Merger shall become effective as aforesaid is referred to hereinafter as the
“Effective Time.”
1.3 Certificate
of Incorporation, Bylaws, Directors and Officers.
(a) The
Certificate of Incorporation of the Acquisition Corp., as in effect immediately
prior to the Effective Time, attached as Exhibit B hereto,
shall be the Certificate of
1
Incorporation
of the Surviving Corporation from and after the Effective Time until further
amended in accordance with applicable law.
(b) The
Bylaws of the Acquisition Corp., as in effect immediately prior to the Effective
Time, attached as Exhibit C hereto, shall be the Bylaws of the
Surviving Corporation from and after the Effective Time until amended in
accordance with applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the
Surviving Corporation and such Bylaws.
(c) The
directors and officers listed in Exhibit D hereto shall be the
directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, and each shall hold his
respective office or offices from and after the Effective Time, until his
successor shall have been elected and shall have qualified in accordance with
applicable law, or as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation
or
Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.
1.4 Assets
and Liabilities. At the Effective Time, the Surviving
Corporation shall possess all the rights, privileges, powers and franchises
of a
public as well as of a private nature, and be subject to all the restrictions,
disabilities and duties of each of Acquisition Corp. and the Company
(collectively, the “Constituent Corporations”); and
all the rights, privileges, powers and franchises of each of the Constituent
Corporations, and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all debts due
to
any of the constituent corporations on whatever account, as well for stock
subscriptions as all other things in action or belonging to each of the
Constituent Corporations, shall be vested in the Surviving Corporation; and
all
property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises, and all and every other
interest shall be thereafter as effectively the property of the Surviving
Corporation as they were of the several and respective Constituent Corporations,
and the title to any real estate vested by deed or otherwise in either of the
such Constituent Corporations shall not revert or be in any way impaired by
the
Merger; but all rights of creditors and all liens upon any property of any
of
the Constituent Corporations shall be preserved unimpaired, and all debts,
liabilities and duties of the Constituent Corporations shall thenceforth attach
to the Surviving Corporation, and may be enforced against it to the same extent
as if said debts, liabilities and duties had been incurred or contracted by
it.
1.5 Manner
and Basis of Converting Shares.
(a) At
the Effective Time:
(i) each
share of common stock, no par value per share, of Acquisition Corp. that shall
be outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of
the
Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted
into one (1) share of common stock, no par value per share, of the Surviving
Corporation, so that at the Effective Time, Parent shall be the holder of all
of
the issued and outstanding shares of the Surviving Corporation;
(ii) the
shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Company (the
“Company Common Stock”) beneficially owned by the
Stockholders listed in Section 2.4 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, which
shares at the Closing will constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares
of common stock of the Company, shall, by virtue of the Merger and without
any
action on the part of the holders thereof, be cancelled and
extinguished;
2
(iii) the
shares of preferred stock, designated Series A-1, $.001 par value per share,
of
the Company (the “Series A-1 Preferred Stock”)
beneficially owned by the Stockholders listed in Section 2.4 of the Company
Disclosure Schedule, which shares at the Closing will constitute all of the
issued and outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock of the Company,
shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders
thereof, be cancelled and extinguished;
(iv) the
shares of the Company’s Series B-1 Preferred Stock, $.001 par value
per share, (the “Series B-1 Preferred Stock”)
beneficially owned by the Stockholders listed in Section 2.4 of the Company
Disclosure Schedule, which shares at the Closing will constitute all of the
issued and outstanding shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock of the Company,
shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders
thereof, each be converted into the number of shares of Parent Common Stock
equal to the Series B-1 Conversion Ratio;
(v) the
shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per share (the
“Series C Preferred Stock” and, together with the
Series B-1 Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, the
“Company Preferred Stock”) beneficially owned by the
Stockholders listed in Section 2.4 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, which
shares of Series C Preferred Stock taken together with the Series B-1 Preferred
Stock at the Closing will constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares
of
preferred stock of the Company, shall, by virtue of the Merger and without
any
action on the part of the holders thereof, each be converted into the number
of
shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Series C Conversion
Ratio;
(vi) each
share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company immediately
prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled in the Merger and cease to exist
and each share of Company Preferred Stock held in the treasury of the Company
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled in the Merger and
cease to exist;
(b) After
the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on
the
stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company
Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock (referred to collectively herein as
“Company Stock”) that were outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time
(c) Promptly
after the Effective Time and upon (i) surrender of a certificate or certificates
representing shares of Company Stock that were outstanding immediately prior
to
the Effective Time or an affidavit and indemnification in form reasonably
acceptable to counsel for the Parent stating that such Stockholder has lost
its
certificate or certificates or that such have been destroyed and (ii) delivery
of a Letter of Transmittal (as described in Section 4 hereof), Parent shall
issue to each record holder of the Company Stock surrendering such certificate
or certificates and Letter of Transmittal, a certificate or certificates
registered in the name of such Stockholder representing the number of shares
of
Parent Common Stock that such Stockholder shall be entitled to receive as set
forth in Sections 1.5(a)(iv) and 1.5(a)(v) hereof. Until the
certificate, certificates or affidavit is or are surrendered together with
the
Letter of Transmittal as contemplated by this Section 1.5(c) and Section 4
hereof, each certificate or affidavit that immediately prior to the Effective
Time represented any outstanding shares of Company Stock shall be deemed at
and
after the Effective Time to represent only the right for the holder
thereof.
3
to
receive upon surrender as aforesaid the Parent Common Stock into which such
Company Stock is converted under Sections 1.5(a)(iv) and 1.5(a)(v) hereof or
to
perfect any rights of appraisal which such holder may have pursuant to the
applicable provisions of the DGCL.
1.6 Options;
Warrants; Other Rights. Except as set forth in Section 1.6
of the Company Disclosure Schedule, all options, warrants, and other rights
of
any kind to purchase Company Stock outstanding as of the Effective Date will
be
exercised or terminated prior to or effective upon the Effective Time, and
neither Parent nor Acquisition Corp., except as set forth in Section 1.6 of
the
Company Disclosure Schedule, shall assume or have any obligation with respect
to
such options or rights.
1.7 Parent
Common Stock. Parent agrees that it will cause the Parent
Common Stock into which the Company Stock is converted at the Effective Time
pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(iv) and 1.5(a)(v) to be available for such
purpose.
1.8 Additional
Shares.
(a) Parent
intends to file, or has filed a registration statement with the Commission
pertaining to certain shares of Parent Common Stock other than the shares of
Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with or as a result of the Merger
(the “Initial Registration Statement”) and will use
best efforts to cause the Commission to declare the Initial Registration
Statement effective as soon as practicable. For the purposes of this
Agreement, “Trigger Date” shall be the first date upon
which (i) the Initial Registration statement is declared effective by the
Commission and no stop order or other restriction on trading the shares has
been
imposed by the Commission; (ii) sufficient contractual lockup agreements of
the
officers, directors and any significant stockholders (including those associated
with the Initial Registration Statement) have expired such that 50% of the
Parent’s outstanding capital stock is freely tradable and not subject to
restrictions on resale (calculated on a fully diluted basis, including all
options, warrants, and other rights to acquire capital stock of the Parent
outstanding at such time); (iii) Parent has completed a bona fide arm’s length
equity financing in one or a series of related transactions of at least $10.0
million; and (iv) at least 50% of the Parent Common Stock issued in connection
with the Merger has been registered with the Commission for resale and such
shares are not subject to any restrictions on resale; provided that, not
withstanding the foregoing, if the Trigger Date has not occurred prior to March
23, 2008, at any time following the such date a majority in interest of the
Stockholders may establish a Trigger Date by notice to Parent. In the
event that no Trigger Date has occurred as of March 23, 2009, subject to the
remainder of this sentence, the Trigger Date shall be March 23, 2009 (the
“Trigger Date Limit”); provided, however,
that such Trigger Date Limit shall be extended by the sum of (x) the number
of
days beyond January 15, 2008 the Initial Registration Statement is declared
effective by the Commission, plus (y) the number of days following effectiveness
and prior to the date of calculation of the Trigger Date Limit during which
the
use of the Initial Registration Statement is either suspended by the Commission
or is unavailable because the Initial Registration Statement contains a an
untrue statement of fact or omits to state a fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (such number of
days
referred to as the “Delay Period”).
4
(b) Beginning
on the Trigger Date, Parent will compute the average daily closing price for
the
Parent Common Stock for the 60 trading days following the Trigger Date during
which there is no stop order or similar prohibition on trading in Parent Common
Stock on the applicable exchange or OTC bulletin board (the
“Subsequent Market Price”), and compare that to the
Average Closing Price. If the Subsequent Market Price is less than
the Average Closing Price, then Parent will promptly issue additional shares
(the “Additional Shares”) to the Stockholders,
pro-rata, such that the total dollar value of the Parent Common Stock issued
pursuant to Sections 1.5(a)(iv) and 1.5(a)(v) hereof, plus the Additional Shares
to be issued pursuant to this Section 1.8(b), equals $5,115,000, calculated
based on the Subsequent Market Price. In the event that the parties
disagree as to the calculation of the Subsequent Market Price, an independent
national accounting firm shall be engaged, and the determination by such
accounting firm shall be binding on all parties absent fraud or manifest
error.

in
accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement is limited by bankruptcy,

to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive
notice; (iii) if sent by posting on an electronic network together with separate
notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of such
posting or the giving of such separate notice; and (iv) if sent by any other
form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the
notice is given. Any consent to receive notice by electronic
transmission shall be revocable by written notice from such stockholder to
the
Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if (a) the
Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive
notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent and (b)
such
inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the
Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the
giving
of notice; provided, however, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability
as
a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.
Exhibit
C - 2
An
affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary or of the transfer agent
or
other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the
absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated
therein.
2.6 QUORUM
The
holders of a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and
entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall
constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction
of
business, except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of
Incorporation, provided, however, that where a separate vote by a
class or series or classes or series is required, a majority of
the outstanding shares of such class or series or classes or series present
in
person or represented by proxy shall constitute a quorum entitled to take
action
with respect to that vote on that matter. If, however, such quorum is
not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then the
stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by
proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without
notice
other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or
represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present
or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted
at the meeting as originally noticed. Once a share is represented for
any purpose at a meeting other than solely to object to holding the meeting
or
transacting business, it shall be deemed present for the remainder of the
meeting and any adjournment (unless a new record date is or must be set for
the
adjourned meeting), notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders
to
leave less than a quorum.
2.7 ADJOURNED
MEETING; NOTICE
When
a
meeting is adjourned to another time or place, unless these Bylaws otherwise
require, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and
place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by
which
stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote
at
such adjourned meeting, are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment
is
taken. At the adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any
business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If
the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new
record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned
meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at
the
meeting.
2.8 VOTING
The
stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined
in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 of these Bylaws, subject
to the provisions of Sections 217 and 218 of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners
of
stock and to voting trusts and other voting agreements). Except as
may be otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, (i) each
stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock
held
by such stockholder, (ii) directors shall be elected by a plurality of the
votes
of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and
entitled to vote on the election of directors, and (iii) every matter other
than
the election of directors shall be decided by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the
Exhibit
C - 3
shares
of
stock entitled to vote thereon that are present in person or represented
by
proxy at the meeting and are voted for or against the matter.
2.9 WAIVER
OF NOTICE
Whenever
notice is required to be given under any provision of the General Corporation
Law of Delaware or of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a
written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver
by
electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before
or
after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to
notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver
of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the
express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction
of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or
convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose
of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified
in any
written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission, unless
so
required by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

STOCKHOLDER
ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A
MEETING
|
Unless
otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required
by
the General Corporation Law of Delaware to be taken at any annual or special
meeting of stockholders of a corporation, or any action that may be taken
at any
annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting
forth
the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having
not
less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize
or
take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon
were
present and voted; provided, however, that an action by written consent to
elect
directors, unless such action is unanimous, may be in lieu of holding an
annual
meeting only if all of the directorships to which directors could be elected
at
an annual meeting held at the effective time of such action are vacant and
are
filled by such action.
A
telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission consenting to an action
to
be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxyholder, or by a person
or
persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxyholder, shall be deemed
to
be written, signed and dated for the purposes of this section, provided that
any
such telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission sets forth (or
is
delivered with information from which the Corporation can determine) (i)
that
the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was transmitted
by the
stockholder or proxyholder or by a person or persons authorized to act for
the
stockholder or proxyholder and (ii) the date on which such stockholder or
proxyholder or authorized person or persons transmitted such telegram, cablegram
or electronic transmission. The date on which such telegram,
cablegram or electronic transmission is transmitted shall be deemed to be
the
date on which such consent was signed. No consent given by a
telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to have
been delivered until such consent is reproduced in paper form and until such
paper form shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered
office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer
or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings
of
meetings of stockholders are recorded. Any copy,
facsimile
Exhibit
C - 4
or
other
reliable reproduction of a consent in writing may be substituted or used
in lieu
of the original writing for any and all purposes for which the original writing
could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall
be
a complete reproduction of the entire original writing.
Every
written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who
signs
the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate
action referred to in such consent unless written consents signed by the
requisite number of stockholders entitled to vote with respect to the subject
matter thereof are delivered to the Corporation, in the manner required by
this
Section, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the
Corporation in the manner required by this Section. Any such consent
shall be inserted in the minute book as if it were the minutes of a meeting
of
the stockholders.
Prompt
notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than
unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not
consented in writing. If the action that is consented to is such as
would have required the filing of a certificate under any section of the
General
Corporation Law of Delaware if such action had been voted on by stockholders
at
a meeting thereof, then the certificate filed under such section shall
state, in lieu of any statement required by such section concerning any vote
of
stockholders, that written notice and written consent have been given as
provided in Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware.

RECORD
DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING; GIVING
CONSENTS
|
In
order
that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of
or to
vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled
to
express consent to an action in writing without a meeting, or entitled to
receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any
rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion
or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board
of
Directors may fix a record date. Such record date shall not
(i) precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is
adopted by the Board of Directors, (ii) be more than 60 nor fewer than 10
days before the date of such meeting, (iii) be more than 10 days after the
date upon which the resolution fixing the record date for an action by written
consent in lieu of a meeting is adopted by the Board of Directors, or
(iv) be more than 60 days prior to any other action.
If
the
Board of Directors does not so fix a record date:
(i) The
record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote
at a
meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next
preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the
close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting
is
held.
(ii) The
record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to
corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the
Board
of Directors is required by the General Corporation Law of Delaware, shall
be
the first date on which a signed
Exhibit
C - 5
written
consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered
to
the Corporation.
(iii) The
record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at
the
close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the
resolution relating thereto.
A
determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote
at a
meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided,
however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned
meeting.
2.12 PROXIES
Each
stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent
or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize
another person or persons to act for such stockholder by a written proxy
or by
an electronic transmission indicating such proxy, signed by the stockholder
and
filed with the secretary of the Corporation, but no such proxy shall be voted
or
acted upon after 3 years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer
period. A proxy with respect to a specific meeting shall entitle the
proxy holder to vote at any reconvened meeting following adjournment of such
meeting, but shall not be valid after the final adjournment of such
meeting. A proxy shall be deemed signed if the stockholder's name is
placed on the proxy or the electronic transmission indicating such proxy
(whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission or
otherwise) by the stockholder or the stockholder's
attorney-in-fact. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face
that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of
Section 212(e) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. A
stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder
as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of a telegram,
cablegram or other means of electronic transmission to the intended holder
of
the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service or similar
agent duly authorized by the intended proxy holder to receive such transmission;
provided, that any such telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission
must either set forth (or be accompanied by information from which it can
be
determined) that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission
was
authorized by the stockholder. Any copy, facsimile telecommunication
or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission by which a
stockholder has authorized another person to act as proxy for such stockholder
may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission
for
any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could
be
used, provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction
shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or
transmission.
2.13 LIST
OF STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE
The
officer who has charge of the stock ledger of a corporation shall prepare
and
make, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list
of
the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical
order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares
registered in the name of each stockholder. Nothing contained in this
Section 2.13 shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail
addresses or other electronic
Exhibit
C - 6
contact
information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination
of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of
at
least 10 days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible
electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access
to
such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary
business hours, at the principal place of business of the
Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the
list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable
steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of
the
Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list
shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the
whole
time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is
present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote
communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any
stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible
electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall
be
provided with the notice of the meeting. The stock ledger shall be
the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the
list or
to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

DIRECTORS
3.1 POWERS
Subject
to the provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware and any limitations
in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws relating to action required
to be approved by the stockholders or by the outstanding shares, the business
and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers
shall
be exercised by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.
3.2 NUMBER
OF DIRECTORS
The
number of directors of the Corporation shall be determined by resolution
of the
Board of Directors, from time to time, and shall consist of not less than
one
(1) director and no more than seven (7). No reduction of the
authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director
before that director's term of office expires.

3.3
|
ELECTION,
QUALIFICATION AND TERM OF OFFICE OF
DIRECTORS
|
Except
as
provided in Section 3.4 of these Bylaws, directors shall be elected at each
annual meeting of stockholders to hold office until the next annual
meeting. Directors need not be stockholders unless so required by the
Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, wherein other qualifications
for
directors may be prescribed. Each director, including a director
elected to fill a vacancy, shall hold office until the successor of such
director is elected and qualified or until the death, resignation or removal
of
such director. All elections of directors shall be by written ballot,
unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation. If
authorized by the Board of Directors, such requirement of a written ballot
shall
be satisfied by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission, provided that
any
such electronic transmission must either set forth (or be
submitted
Exhibit
C - 7
with
information from which it can be determined) that the electronic transmission
was authorized by the stockholder or proxyholder.
3.4 RESIGNATION
AND VACANCIES
Any
director may resign at any time upon written notice given in writing or by
electronic transmission to the Corporation. Any such resignation
shall be effective upon delivery, unless the notice of resignation specifies
a
future effective date, and unless otherwise specified, the acceptance of
such
resignation shall not be a precondition to its effectiveness. When
one or more directors so resigns and the resignation is effective at a future
date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have
so
resigned, shall have the power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote
thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become
effective, and each director so chosen shall hold office as provided in Section
3.3.
Unless
otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these
Bylaws:
(i) Vacancies
and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized
number of directors elected by all of the stockholders having the right to
vote
as a single class may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office,
although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.
(ii) Whenever
the holders of any class or series of stock are entitled to elect one or
more
directors by the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, vacancies
and
newly created directorships of such class or series may, unless otherwise
set
forth in the Certificate of Incorporation, be filled by a majority of the
directors elected by such class or series thereof then in office, or by a
sole
remaining director so elected.
If
at any
time, by reason of death or resignation or other cause, the Corporation should
have no directors in office, then any officer or any stockholder or an executor,
administrator, trustee or guardian of a stockholder, or other fiduciary
entrusted with like responsibility for the person or estate of a stockholder,
may call a special meeting of stockholders in accordance with the provisions
of
the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, or may apply to the Court
of
Chancery for a decree summarily ordering an election as provided in
Section 211 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware.
If,
at
the time of filling any vacancy or any newly created directorship, the directors
then in office constitute less than a majority of the whole Board of Directors
(as constituted immediately prior to any such increase), then the Court of
Chancery may, upon application of any stockholder or stockholders holding
at
least 10 percent of the total number of the shares at the time outstanding
having the right to vote for such directors, summarily order an election
to be
held to fill any such vacancies or newly created directorships, or to replace
the directors chosen by the directors then in office as aforesaid, which
election shall be governed by the provisions of Section 211 of the General
Corporation Law of Delaware as far as applicable.

3.5 PLACE
OF MEETINGS; TELEPHONIC MEETINGS
The
Board
of Directors of the Corporation may hold meetings, both regular and special,
either within or outside the State of Delaware. Unless otherwise
restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, members of
the
Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors,
may
participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors, or any committee, by
means
of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which
all
persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation
in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.
3.6 FIRST
MEETINGS
The
first
meeting of each newly elected Board of Directors shall be held at such time
and
place as shall be fixed by the vote of the stockholders at the annual meeting
and no notice of such meeting shall be necessary to the newly elected directors
in order legally to constitute the meeting, provided a quorum shall be present.
In the event of the failure of the stockholders to fix the time or place
of such
first meeting of the newly elected Board of Directors, or in the event such
meeting is not held at the time and place so fixed by the stockholders, the
meeting may be held at such time and place as shall be specified in a notice
given as hereinafter provided for special meetings of the Board of Directors,
or
as shall be specified in a written waiver signed by all of the
directors.
3.7 REGULAR

telephone (including a voice messaging system or other system or technology
designed to record and communicate messages), or by other form of electronic
transmission. Any oral notice given personally or by telephone may be
communicated either to the director or to a person at the office of the director
who the person giving the notice has reason to believe will promptly communicate
it to the director. A notice, or waiver of notice, need not specify
the purpose of any regular or special meeting of the Board of
Directors.
3.9 QUORUM
At
all
meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the authorized
number of directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business
and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which
there
is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors, except as may otherwise
be specifically provided by the General Corporation Law of Delaware
or
Exhibit
C - 9
by
the
Certificate of Incorporation. A director of the Corporation who is
present at a board or committee meeting at which any action is taken shall
be
deemed to have assented to the action taken unless (i) the director objects
at
the beginning of the meeting, or promptly upon the director's arrival, to
holding the meeting or transacting any business at such meeting, (ii) the
director's dissent or abstention from the action taken is entered in the
minutes
of the meeting, or (iii) the director delivers written notice of the director's
dissent or abstention to the presiding officer of the meeting before its
adjournment or to the Corporation within a reasonable time after adjournment
of
the meeting. The right of dissent or abstention is not available to a
director who votes in favor of the action taken.
3.10 WAIVER
OF NOTICE
Whenever
notice is required to be given to a director under any provision of the General
Corporation Law of Delaware or of the Certificate of Incorporation or these
Bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice,
whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent
to
notice. Such waiver shall be deemed delivered if made by electronic
transmission. Attendance of a director at a meeting shall constitute
a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the director attends a meeting
for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting or
upon
the director's arrival, to the transaction of any business because the meeting
is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be
transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the
directors, or members of a committee of directors, need be specified in any
written waiver of notice unless so required by the Certificate of Incorporation
or these Bylaws.
3.11 ADJOURNED
MEETING; NOTICE
If
a
quorum is not present at any meeting of the Board of Directors, then the
directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without
notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is
present.
3.12 BOARD ACTION
BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING
Any
action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of
Directors, or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if
all
members of the Board of Directors or committee, as the case may be, consent
thereto in writing or by electronic transmission and the writing or writings
or
electronic transmission or transmissions are filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee. Such filing shall
be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be
in
electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.
3.13 FEES

Unless
otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws,
the
Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation of

sum
for attendance at each board or committee meeting or a stated salary
as
Exhibit

director
or a committee member, and such other compensation as the Board of Directors
may
determine. No such payment shall preclude any director or committee
member from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving
compensation therefor.
3.14 REMOVAL
OF DIRECTORS
Unless
otherwise restricted by statute, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by
these
Bylaws, any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed, with
or
without cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to
vote
at an election of directors. No reduction of the authorized number of
directors shall have the effect of removing any director prior to the expiration
of such director's term of office.

consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. The Board
of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of
any
committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting
of

committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not
disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute
a
quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors
to act
at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified
member. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution
of the Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation, shall have
and
may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the
management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize
the
seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers that may require it;
but no
such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to the following
matter: (i) approving or adopting, or recommending to the stockholders, any
action or matter required by the General Corporation Law of Delaware to be
submitted to stockholders for approval or (ii) adopting, amending or repealing
any bylaw of the Corporation. Unless otherwise provided in the
Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or the resolution of the Board
of

subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the
committee, and delegate to a subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority
of the committee.

to
substitute the committee and its members for the Board of Directors and its
members; provided, however, that the time of regular meetings of committees
may
also be called by resolution of the Board of Directors and that notice of
special meetings of committees shall also be given to all alternate members,
who
shall have the right to attend all meetings of the committee. Unless
the Board of Directors adopts rules for the governance of a committee, then

not
be inconsistent with the provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware,
the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

by resolution of the Board of Directors, a stock register, or a duplicate

certificates evidencing such shares, and the number and date of cancellation
of
every certificate surrendered for cancellation.
The
secretary shall keep the seal of the Corporation, if one be adopted, in safe
custody and shall have such other powers and perform such other duties as
may be
prescribed by the Board of Directors or by these Bylaws.
5.10 CHIEF
FINANCIAL OFFICER/TREASURER
The
chief
financial officer shall keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and maintained,
adequate and correct books and records of accounts of the properties and

and shares. The books of account shall at all reasonable times be
open to inspection by any director.
The
chief
financial officer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, all money and
other
valuables in the name and to the credit of the Corporation with such
depositaries as may be designated by the Board of Directors. Such

as may be ordered by the Board of Directors, shall render to the president
and
directors, whenever they request it, an account of all of the transactions

such officer as treasurer and of the financial condition of the Corporation,

The
assistant secretary, or, if there is more than one, the assistant secretaries
in
the order determined by the Board of Directors (or if there be no such
determination, then in the order of their election) shall, in the absence

such other duties and have such other powers as the Board of Directors may
from
time to time prescribe.
5.12 ASSISTANT

assistant treasurer, or, if there is more than one, the assistant treasurers,
in
the order determined by the Board of Directors (or if there be no such

addition to the foregoing authority and duties, all officers of the Corporation
shall respectively have such authority and perform such duties in the management
of the business of the Corporation as may be designated from time to time
by the

5.14 SALARIES
The
salaries of the officers shall be fixed from time to time by the Board of
Directors, or by any committee or officer to which or whom, as the case may
be,
the Board of Directors has delegated such authority. No officer shall
be disqualified from receiving such salary by reason of the fact that he
or she
is also a director of the Corporation.
5.15 LOANS
TO OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES
The
Corporation may lend money to, or guarantee any obligation of, or otherwise
assist any officer or other employee of the Corporation or any of its
subsidiaries, including any officer or employee who is a director of the
Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, whenever, in the judgment of the
directors, such loan, guaranty or assistance may reasonably be expected to
benefit the Corporation. The loan, guaranty or other assistance may
be with or without interest and may be unsecured, or secured in such manner
as
the Board of Directors shall approve, including, without limitation, a pledge
of
shares of stock of the Corporation. Nothing in this section shall be
deemed to deny, limit or restrict the powers of guaranty or warranty of the
Corporation at common law or under any statute. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any such loan made, guaranteed, or arranged for by the
Corporation shall contain a provision requiring the borrower to repay the
obligation in full if the Corporation becomes subject to the restrictions
of the
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, as amended, or if the borrower becomes an officer
or
director of a parent entity that is subject to the restrictions of the
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, as amended.
ARTICLE
VI
INDEMNITY
6.1 INDEMNIFICATION
OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
To
the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may
hereafter be amended (provided, that in the case of such an amendment, only
to
the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader
indemnification rights than permitted prior thereto), the Corporation shall
indemnify and hold harmless each person who was or is made or is threatened
to
be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(a "proceeding") by reason of the fact that such
person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was serving
at the request of
Exhibit
C - 15
the
Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation
or
of a partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity
(including service with respect to an employee benefit plan), against all
liability, loss and reasonable expense incurred by such person, including
attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, penalties, ERISA excise taxes and amounts
paid in settlement of proceedings. Except as set forth in
Section 6.2 below, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify a person
in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person
only
if the proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of
Directors. The right to indemnification under this Article VI
shall be construed as a contractual right of the indemnitees and shall inure
to
the benefit of an indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators.
6.2 PREPAYMENT
OF EXPENSES; UNDERTAKING TO REPAY
The
Corporation shall pay the expenses (including attorneys' fees) expected to
be
incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition;
provided, however, that if the General Corporation Law of Delaware then so
requires, the payment of expenses incurred in advance of the final disposition
of the proceeding by a director or officer in such person's capacity as such
(and not in any other capacity in which service is or was rendered by such
person, such as service with respect to an employee benefit plan) shall be
made
only upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay all
amounts advanced if it is determined by a final judicial determination from
which there is no further possibility of appeal that the director or officer
is
not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VI or otherwise; and
provided, further, that the Corporation shall not be required to prepay any
expenses to a person against whom the Corporation directly brings a claim
alleging that such person has (i) breached such person's duty of loyalty to
the Corporation, or committed an act or omission not in good faith or that
involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or
(ii) derived an improper personal benefit from a transaction.
6.3 CLAIMS
BY INDEMNITEE; PRESUMPTION OF VALIDITY
If
a
claim for indemnification or payment of expenses under this Article VI is
not paid in full within 60 days after a written claim therefor has been
presented to the Corporation (except in the case of a claim for prepayment
of
expenses in accordance with Section 6.2 above, in which case the applicable
period shall be 20 days) the indemnitee may file suit to recover the unpaid
amount of such claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such
suit, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting
such claim. In any such action, the Corporation shall have the burden
of proving that the claimant was not entitled to the requested indemnification
or payment of expenses under applicable law. The indemnitee shall be
presumed to be entitled to indemnification under this Article VI upon
submission of a written claim (and, in an action brought to enforce a claim
for
prepayment of expenses, where the required undertaking, if any is required,
has
been tendered to the Corporation), and thereafter the Corporation shall have
the
burden of proof to overcome the presumption that the indemnitee is not so
entitled. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board
or Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made
a
determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification
of the
indemnitee is proper in the circumstances, nor an actual determination by
the
Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel
or its
stockholders) that the indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification shall
be a
defense to the suit or create a
Exhibit
C - 16
presumption
that the indemnitee is not so entitled.
6.4 NON-EXCLUSIVITY
OF RIGHTS
The
rights conferred on any person by this Article VI shall not be exclusive of
any other rights that such person may have or may hereafter acquire under
any
statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws,
contractual agreement, vote of the stockholders or disinterested directors
or
otherwise. Additionally, nothing in this Article VI shall limit
the ability of the Corporation, in its discretion, to indemnify or advance
expenses to persons whom the Corporation is not obligated to indemnify or
advance expenses pursuant to this Article VI.
6.5 SET-OFF
AGAINST OTHER INDEMNIFICATION
The
Corporation's obligation, if any, to indemnify any person who was or is serving
at its request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity shall be
reduced by any amount that such person may collect as indemnification from
such
other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit
entity.
6.6 EFFECT
OF AMENDMENT OR REPEAL
No
repeal
or modification of this Article VI shall adversely affect any right or
protection afforded hereunder to any person in respect of an act or omission
occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.
6.7 INDEMNIFICATION
OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS
The
Corporation may by action of the Board of Directors, extend the rights described
in this Article VI to individual employees or agents, or groups of
employees or agents of the Corporation with the same scope and effect as
the
provisions of this Article VI; provided, however, that an undertaking of
the sort described in Section 6.2 shall be required only if specifically
requested by the Board of Directors.
6.8 INSURANCE;
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS
The
Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who
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 or nonprofit entity 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
the General Corporation Law of Delaware. The Corporation, without
further stockholder approval, may enter into contracts with any person who
is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent, 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 or nonprofit
entity, in furtherance of the provisions of this Article VI. The
Corporation may also create a trust fund, grant a security interest or use
other
Exhibit
C - 17
means
(including, without limitation, a letter of credit) to ensure the payment
of
such amounts as may be necessary to effect indemnification as provided
herein.
6.9 RELIANCE
UPON BOOKS, REPORTS AND RECORDS
Each
director, each member of any committee designated by the Board of Directors,
and
each officer of the Corporation shall, in the performance of his or her duties,
be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the books of account or
other
records of the Corporation and upon such information, opinions, reports or
statements presented to the Corporation by any of its officers or employees,
or
committees of the Board of Directors so designated, or by any other person
as to
matters which such director or committee member reasonably believes are within
such other person's professional or expert competence and who has been selected
with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation.
6.10 CERTAIN
DEFINITIONS
For
purposes of this Article VI, references to the
"Corporation" shall include, in addition to the
resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent
of
a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate
existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify
its
directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or
was a
director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or
is or
was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise or nonprofit entity, shall stand in the same position
under this Article VI with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation
as
such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its
separate existence had continued.
ARTICLE
VII
RECORDS
AND REPORTS
7.1 MAINTENANCE
AND INSPECTION OF RECORDS
The
Corporation shall, either at its principal executive office or at such place
or
places as designated by the Board of Directors, keep a record of its
stockholders, listing their names and addresses and the number and class
of
shares held by each stockholder, a copy of these Bylaws as amended to date,
accounting books, and other records.
Any
stockholder of record or a person who is the beneficial owner of shares of
the
Corporation's stock held either in a voting trust or by a nominee on behalf
of
such person, in person or by attorney or other agent, shall, upon written
demand
under oath stating the purpose thereof, have the right during the usual hours
for business to inspect for any proper purpose the Corporation's stock ledger,
a
list of its stockholders, and its other books and records and to make copies
or
extracts therefrom. A proper purpose shall mean a purpose reasonably
related to such person's interest as a stockholder. In every instance
where an attorney or other agent is the person who seeks the right to
inspection, the demand under oath shall be accompanied by a power of attorney
or
such other writing that authorizes the attorney or other agent to so act
on
behalf of
Exhibit
C - 18
the
stockholder. The demand under oath shall be directed to the Corporation at
its
registered office in Delaware or at its principal place of
business.
7.2 INSPECTION
BY DIRECTORS
Any
director shall have the right to examine the Corporation's stock ledger,
a list
of its stockholders, and its other books and records for a purpose reasonably
related to the position of such person as a director. The Court of Chancery
is
hereby vested with the exclusive jurisdiction to determine whether a director
is
entitled to the inspection sought. The Court may summarily order the Corporation
to permit the director to inspect any and all books and records, the stock
ledger, and the stock list and to make copies or extracts
therefrom. The Court may, in its discretion, prescribe any
limitations or conditions with reference to the inspection, or award such
other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper.
ARTICLE
VIII
STOCK
AND STOCK CERTIFICATES
8.1 STOCK
CERTIFICATES; PARTLY PAID SHARES
No
shares
of the Corporation shall be issued unless authorized by the Board of Directors,
which authorization shall include the maximum number of shares to be issued
and
the consideration to be received for each share.
The
shares of a Corporation shall be represented by certificates, which shall
include on their face or back written notice of any restrictions that may
be
imposed on the transferability of such shares and shall be consecutively
numbered or otherwise identified. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Board of Directors of the Corporation may provide by resolution or resolutions
that some or all of any or all classes or series of its stock shall be
uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares
represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the
Corporation. Notwithstanding the adoption of such a resolution by the
Board of Directors, every holder of stock represented by certificates and
upon
request every holder of uncertificated shares shall be entitled to have a
certificate signed by, or in the name of the Corporation by the chairperson
or
vice-chairperson of the Board of Directors, or the president or vice-president,
and by the treasurer or an assistant treasurer, or the secretary or an assistant
secretary of the Corporation representing the number of shares registered
in
certificate form. The Board of Directors may in its discretion
appoint responsible banks or trust companies from time to time to act as
transfer agents and registrars of the stock of the Corporation; and, when
such
appointments shall have been made, no stock certificate thereafter issued
shall
be valid until countersigned by one of such transfer agents and registered
by
one of such registrars. Any or all of the signatures on the
certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent
or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed
upon a
certificate has ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before
such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the
same
effect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at
the
date of issue.
The
Corporation may issue the whole or any part of its shares as partly paid
and
subject to
Exhibit
C - 19
call
for
the remainder of the consideration to be paid therefor. Upon the face
or back of each stock certificate issued to represent any such partly paid
shares (or upon the books and records of the Corporation in the case of
uncertificated partly paid shares), the total amount of the consideration
to be
paid therefor and the amount paid thereon shall be stated. Upon the
declaration of any dividend on fully paid shares, the Corporation shall declare
a dividend upon partly paid shares of the same class, but only upon the basis
of
the percentage of the consideration actually paid thereon.
8.2 SPECIAL
DESIGNATION ON CERTIFICATES
If
the
Corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than
one
series of any class, then the powers, the designations, the preferences,
and the
relative, participating, optional or other rights of each class of stock
or
series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such
powers, preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized
on
the face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to
represent such class or series of stock; provided, however, that, except
as
otherwise provided in Section 202 of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware, in lieu of the foregoing requirements there may be set forth on
the
face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to represent
such class or series of stock a statement that the Corporation will furnish
without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, the designations,
the preferences, and the relative, participating, optional or other rights
of
each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations
or
restrictions of such powers, preferences and/or rights.
8.3 LOST
CERTIFICATES
Except
as
provided in this Section 8.3, no new certificates for shares shall be
issued to replace a previously issued certificate unless the latter is
surrendered to the Corporation and cancelled at the same time. The
Corporation may issue a new certificate of stock or uncertificated shares
in the
place of any certificate theretofore issued by it that is alleged to have
been
lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Corporation may require the owner of the
lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or the legal representative of such
owner, to give the Corporation a bond or an indemnity sufficient to protect
it
against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss,
theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new
certificate or uncertificated shares.
8.4 TRANSFER
OF STOCK; RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER
Upon
surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of the Corporation of
a
certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of
succession, assignment or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of
the
Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel
the old certificate, and record the transaction in its books.
Except
to
the extent that the Corporation has obtained an opinion of counsel acceptable
to
the Corporation that transfer restrictions are not required under applicable
securities laws, or has otherwise satisfied itself that such transfer
restrictions are not required, all certificates representing shares of the
Corporation shall bear on the face of the certificate, or on the reverse
of
Exhibit
C - 20
the
certificate if a reference to the legend is contained on the face, such legends
as may be required by applicable law, including without limitation a legend
that
reads substantially as follows:
"THE
SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OF
1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE SOLD,
PLEDGED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT EFFECTIVE REGISTRATIONS THEREUNDER
OR
AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT
SUCH
REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED."
8.5 STOCK
TRANSFER AGREEMENTS
The
Corporation shall have power to enter into and perform any agreement with
any
number of stockholders of any one or more classes of stock of the Corporation
to
restrict the transfer of shares of stock of the Corporation of any one or
more
classes or series owned by such stockholders in any manner not prohibited
by the
General Corporation Law of Delaware.
8.6 REGISTERED
STOCKHOLDERS
The
Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person
registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to
vote
as such owner, shall be entitled to hold liable for calls and assessments
the
person registered on its books as the owner of shares, and shall not be bound
to
recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares
on
the part of another person, whether or not it shall have express or other
notice
thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware.
8.7 DIVIDENDS
The
directors of the Corporation, subject to any restrictions contained in the
Certificate of Incorporation, may declare and pay dividends upon the shares
of
its capital stock pursuant to the General Corporation Law of
Delaware. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property, or in shares of
the Corporation's capital stock.
The
directors of the Corporation may set apart out of any of the funds of the
Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper
purpose
and may abolish any such reserve. Such purposes shall include, but not be
limited to, equalizing dividends, repairing or maintaining any property of
the
Corporation, and meeting contingencies.
ARTICLE
IX
GENERAL
MATTERS
9.1 CHECKS
From
time
to time, the Board of Directors shall determine by resolution which person
or
persons may sign or endorse all checks, drafts, other orders for payment

The
Board
of Directors, except as otherwise provided in these Bylaws, may authorize
any
officer or officers, or agent or agents, to enter into any contract or execute
any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the Corporation; such authority
may be general or confined to specific instances. Unless so
authorized or ratified by the Board of Directors or within the agency power
of
an officer, no officer, agent or employee shall have any power or authority
to
bind the Corporation by any contract or engagement or to pledge its credit
or to
render it liable for any purpose or for any amount.
9.3 FISCAL
YEAR
The
fiscal year of the Corporation shall be the same as the calendar year unless

OF SHARES OF OTHER CORPORATIONS
The
chairperson of the board, the president, any vice president, the treasurer,
the

authorized by the Board of Directors or the president or a vice president,
is
authorized to vote, represent, and exercise on behalf of the Corporation
all
rights incident to any and all shares of any other corporation or corporations
standing in the name of the Corporation. The authority granted herein
may be exercised either by such person directly or by any other person
authorized to do so by proxy or power of attorney duly executed by such person
having the authority.
9.6 CONSTRUCTION;
DEFINITIONS
Unless
the context requires otherwise, the general provisions, rules of construction,
and definitions in the General Corporation Law of Delaware shall govern the
construction of these Bylaws. Without limiting the generality of this
provision, the singular number includes the plural, the plural number includes

ARTICLE
X
AMENDMENTS
Subject
to any voting requirements set forth in the Corporation's Certificate of
Incorporation, the original or other Bylaws of the Corporation may be adopted,
amended or repealed by the stockholders entitled to vote; provided, however,
that the Corporation may, in its Certificate of Incorporation, confer the
power
to adopt, amend or repeal Bylaws upon the Board of Directors. The
fact that such power has been so conferred upon the Board of Directors shall
not
divest the stockholders of the power, nor limit their power to adopt, amend
or
repeal Bylaws.

the
disposition of all securities covered by such registration

(d) use
all reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such

business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states
or jurisdictions;
(e) in
the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its
obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with
the managing underwriter of such offering;
(f) notify
each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statements
at
any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under
the Act or the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus

statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to
be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in
the
light of the circumstances then existing; and
(g) cause
all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed
on

4.5 below) each comment letter delivered by the SEC with respect to any such
registration statement, shall respond to each such comment letter within 15
days
of receipt thereof, shall deliver copies of each response to a representative
of
the Stockholders upon request, and shall diligently pursue effectiveness of
each
registration statement.

It
shall
be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action
pursuant to this Section 2 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any
selling Holder, that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information
regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method
of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the
registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.
2.5 Expenses
of Registration
All
expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in
connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to this
Section 2, including (without limitation) all registration, filing and
qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel
for the selling Holders shall be borne by the Company.
Exhibit
F - 4
2.6 Delay
of Registration
The
Company and each Holder shall not have any right to obtain or seek an injunction
restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any
controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or
implementation of this Section 2.
2.7 Indemnification
(a) To
the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each
Holder, the partners or officers, directors and shareholders of each Holder,
legal counsel and accountants for each Holder, any underwriter (as defined
in
the Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder
or
underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act, against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become
subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or any state securities laws, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or
violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto,
(ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein
not
misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of
the Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Act, the 1934 Act or any state securities laws; and the
Company will reimburse each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person
for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.7(a)
shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the
Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the
Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation
that
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder,
underwriter or controlling person; provided further, however, that the foregoing
indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure
to the benefit of any Holder or underwriter, or any person controlling such
Holder or underwriter, from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities purchased shares in the offering, if a copy of the
prospectus (as then amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished
any amendments or supplements thereto) was not sent or given by or on behalf
of
such Holder or underwriter to such person, if required by law so to have been
delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the shares
to
such person, and if the prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have
cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or
liability.
(b) To
the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed
the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within
the meaning of the Act, legal counsel and accountants for the Company, any
underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement
and any controlling person of any such underwriter or
Exhibit
F - 5
other
Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several)
to
which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act, the 1934
Act or any state securities laws, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon
any
Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such
Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration;
and each such Holder will reimburse any person intended to be indemnified
pursuant to this Section 2.7(b), for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this Section 2.7(b) shall not apply to amounts paid
in
settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld), provided that in no event shall any indemnity
under this Section 2.7(b) exceed the gross proceeds from the offering received
by such Holder.
(c) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.7 of notice of the
commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified
party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying
party under this Section 2.7, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice
of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right
to
participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense
thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however,
that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that
may
be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain
one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying
party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained
by
the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party
represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to
deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of
the
commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such
action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the
indemnified party under this Section 2.7, but the omission so to deliver written
notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that
it
may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section
2.7.
(d) If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.7 is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect
to
any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, then the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as
a
result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion
as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the
one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage
or
expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall
be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified
party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
Exhibit
F - 6
(e) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and
contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection
with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing
provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall
control.
(f) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.
(g) The
obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.7 shall survive
the
completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement
under this Section 2, and otherwise.
2.8 Assignment
of Registration Rights
The
rights of the Holders of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section
2
may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a
transferee or assignee of such securities, subject to applicable securities

transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such
transferee or assignee and the Registrable Securities with respect to which
such
registration rights have been assigned, (ii) such transferee or assignee agrees
in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, and (iii) such assignment shall be effective only if such transfer
complies with applicable terms of the Act.

of Registration Rights

obligations of the Company to register the Registrable Securities pursuant
to
the terms of this Agreement shall terminate upon the date upon which all
Registrable Securities held by Stockholder (i) could be sold pursuant Rule

furnished by Pixxures, Inc (“Corporation”) in
connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September __,
2007, among the Company, Pixx Acquisition Corp., a Delaware Company and Xedar
Corporation, a Colorado corporation (the
“Agreement”). Unless the context otherwise
requires, all capitalized terms used in this Disclosure Schedule shall have
the
respective meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.
No
reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in this Disclosure
Schedule shall be construed as an admission or indication that such item or
other matter is material or that such item or other matter is required to be
referred to or disclosed in this Disclosure Schedule. No disclosure
in this Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of
any
agreement, law or regulation shall be construed as an admission or indication
that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.
This
Disclosure Schedule and the information and disclosures contained in this
Disclosure Schedule are intended only to qualify and limit the representations,
warranties and covenants of the Corporation contained in the Agreement and
shall
not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any of such
representations, warranties or covenants.
The
bold-faced headings contained in this Disclosure Schedule are included for
convenience only, and are not intended to limit the effect of the disclosures
contained in this Disclosure Schedule or to expand the scope of the information
required to be disclosed in this Disclosure Schedule. The section numbers in
this Disclosure Schedule correspond to the section numbers in the Agreement;
provided, however, that any information disclosed herein under any
section number shall be deemed to be disclosed and incorporated in any other
