(e)              A proxy statement responsive to the requirements of the United States securities laws shall be mailed to all common stock-  holders of the Corporation for the purpose of soliciting stock-  holder approval of such business combination and shall contain on its first page thereof, in a prominent place, any recommendations as to the advisability (or inadvisability) of the business combination which the continuing directors, or any of them, may choose to state and, if deemed advisable by a majority of the continuing directors, an opinion of a reputable investment banking firm as to the fairness (or not) of the terms of such business combination, from the point of view of the remaining public stockholders of the Corporation (such investment banking firm to be selected by a majority of the continuing directors and to be paid a reasonable fee for their services by the Corporation upon receipt of such opinion).

Section 9.02.            Right to Indemnification.  (a) Each person (and the heirs, executors or administrators of such person) who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law, against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith.  The Corporation shall indemnify a director, officer or employee in connection with an action, suit or proceeding (other than an action, suit or proceeding to enforce indemnification rights provided for herein or elsewhere) initiated by such director, officer or employee only if such action, suit or proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors.  The right to indemnification conferred in this Article 9 shall also include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in connection with any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, if the Delaware Law requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in such person’s capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person) in advance of the final disposition of an action, suit or proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Article 9 or otherwise.  The right to indemnification conferred in this Article 9 shall be a contract right.

(b)              The Corporation may, by action of its Board of Directors, provide indemnification to such agents of the Corporation to such extent and to such effect as the Board of Directors shall determine to be appropriate and authorized by Delaware Law.

Section 9.03.            Insurance.  The Corporation shall have power to 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 against any expense, liability or loss incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Delaware Law.

Section 9.04.            Nonexclusivity of Rights.  The rights and authority conferred in this Article 9 shall not be exclusive of any other right that any person may otherwise have or hereafter acquire.

Section 9.05.            Preservation of Rights.  Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Article 9, nor the adoption of any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law, any modification of law, shall adversely affect any right or protection of any person granted pursuant hereto existing at, or arising out of or related to any event, act or omission that occurred prior to, the time of such amendment, repeal, adoption or modification (regardless of when any proceeding (or part thereof) relating to such event, act or omission arises or is first threatened, commenced or completed).
