any further transfer of the Shares that may be necessary because of any change
of persons holding the office of Trustee.

shall also be substantially in the same form.
Section 3.06. Fractional Trust Certificates. If an interest in this
Voting Trust that is owned by any Voting Trust Certificate Holder cannot be
fully represented by Whole Voting Trust Certificates, the Trustee may issue
Fractional Share Voting Trust Certificates, scrip, or

other evidence of ownership of the fractional part of one Trust Certificate that

interest. When such an issue is made, the fractional interest shall not under
any circumstances have any greater rights or lesser liabilities than any other
Trust Certificate.

Certificates shall be transferable only as provided in the Certificates and in
this Agreement, and on payment of any charges payable at the time of transfer.
All transfers shall be recorded in the Certificate Record Book maintained by the
Trustee. Any transfer made of any Voting Trust Certificate shall vest in the
transferee all rights of the transferor and shall subject the transferee to the

Trust Certificate and by this Agreement. The Trustee shall deliver Voting Trust
Certificates to the transferee for the number of shares represented by the
Voting Trust Certificate so transferred.
Section 3.08. Proof of Ownership. The Trustee shall not be required to
recognize any transfer of a Voting Trust Certificate not made in accordance with

produced indicia of title satisfactory to the Trustee, and shall have deposited
with the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee.
Section 3.09. Holder of Certificate as Owner. The Trustee may treat the

any part of the Shares upon such terms and conditions as the Trustee shall

structure or the powers of the Company or in connection with a merger,
consolidation, reorganization, or dissolution. No person other than the Trustee

Additionally, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive dividends and other
distributions on the shares, subject to the provisions of Section 5.01 of this
Agreement.
Section 4.02. Voting in Interest of Company. In voting the Shares or in
doing any act regarding the control or management of the Company or its affairs,
as holder of Shares deposited pursuant to this Agreement, the Trustee shall
exercise the Trustee's best judgment in the interest of the Company to the end
that its affairs shall be properly managed, but the Trustee assumes no
responsibility regarding management or any action taken by them or taken by the
Company in pursuance of the Trustee's consent to it as a shareholder or in
pursuance of the Trustee's vote so cast.
Section 4.03. Majority Action of Trustee. If more than one Trustee is
serving under this Agreement, all action to be taken on any question arising
between the Trustees, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
shall from time to time be determined by the vote or agreement of the majority
of the Trustees then in office, either at a meeting of the Trustees or, with or
without a meeting, by a writing signed by the majority. The Trustees may provide
for the authentication of evidence of any action taken by them. Any Trustee may
vote in person or by proxy given to any other Trustee.
Section 4.04. Meeting With Certificate Holders. If any question arises
on which the Trustee desires the opinion of the Voting Trust Certificate
Holders, the Trustee may call a meeting for this purpose. At the meeting, the
owners of two-thirds ( 2/3rds ), or more, in interest of the Voting Trust
Certificates may determine by vote or their written consent the manner in which
they desire the Trustee to act, and the Trustee shall be bound to act in the
manner designated. The Trustee shall not be called upon or expected to take any
action as a result of this meeting unless and until the Trustee has been fully
indemnified against all loss, damage, claim, or injury to which the Trustee
might be subjected, either by reason of the Trustee's action or by reason of the
Trustee's position as Trustee under this Agreement.
Section 4.05. Trustee's Relationship With Company. Any Trustee, the
Trustee's employees or agents, and any firm, corporation, trust, or association
of which the Trustee may be a trustee, stockholder, director, officer, member,
agent, or employee may contract with or be or become pecuniary interested,
directly or indirectly, in any matter or transaction to which the Company or any
subsidiary or controlled or affiliated corporation may be a party or in which it
may be concerned, as fully and freely as though the Trustee were not a Trustee
pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee, the Trustee's employees or agents may
act as directors, officers or employees of the Company or of any subsidiary or
controlled or affiliated corporation.
Section 4.06. Compensation of Trustees. Husband shall serve as Trustee

necessary and proper for administering this Agreement. The Voting Trust
Certificate Holders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Trustee for all claims,
expenses, and liabilities incurred by the Trustee in connection with the
discharge of the Trustee's duties under this Agreement. Any such claims,
expenses, or liabilities shall be charged to the Voting Trust Certificate
Holders in proportion to the number of shares represented by the Voting Trust
Certificates held by each and may be deducted from dividends or other
distributions to them, or may be made a charge payable as a condition to the
delivery of shares in exchange for Voting Trust Certificates, and the Trustee
shall be entitled to a lien for this charge on the shares, funds, or other
property in the Trustee's possession.
Section 4.08. Trustee's Liability. No Trustee shall be liable for acts
or defaults of any other Trustee or for acts or defaults of an agent of any
other Trustee. The Trustee shall be free from liability in acting upon any
paper, document, or signature believed by Trustee to be genuine and to have been
signed by the proper party. The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of
judgment nor for any act done or omitted, nor for any mistake of fact or law,
nor for anything that the Trustee may do or refrain from doing in good faith,
nor generally shall the Trustee have any accountability pursuant to this
Agreement, except that the Trustee shall be liable for the Trustee's own willful
default or gross negligence. The Trustee may be advised by legal counsel, and
any action under this Agreement taken or suffered in good faith by Trustee in
accordance with the opinion of counsel shall be conclusive on the parties to
this Agreement, and the Trustee shall be fully protected and be subject to no
liability in respect to any action taken or suffered under this Agreement.

DIVIDEND, DISTRIBUTION, SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS
OF CERTIFICATE HOLDERS
Section 5.01. Cash Dividends. Each Voting Trust Certificate Holder
shall be entitled to receive from time to time payments equal to the amount of
cash dividends, if any, collected or received by the Trustee on the shares in
regard to which Voting Trust Certificates were issued, less the deductions
provided for in Section 5.05. These payments shall be made as soon as
practicable after the receipt of the dividends to the Voting Trust Certificate
Holders at the close of business on the record date determined pursuant to the
provisions of Section 5.06. Instead of receiving cash dividends and paying them
to the Voting Trust Certificate Holders, the Trustee may instruct the Company in
writing to pay the dividends directly to the Voting Trust Certificate Holders.
When these instructions are given to the Company, all liability of the Trustee
with regard to the dividends shall cease, until the instructions are revoked.
The Trustee may at any time revoke the instructions and by written notice to the
Company direct it to make dividend payments to the Trustee.
Section 5.02. Share Dividends. If the Trustee receives as a dividend or
other distribution on any Shares held by the Trustee under this Agreement any
additional shares of the Company, the Trustee shall hold them subject to this
Agreement for the benefit of the Voting
5
6
Trust Certificate Holders in proportion to their respective interests, and the
shares shall become subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement
to the same extent as if they were originally deposited under it. The Trustee
shall issue Voting Trust Certificates in respect of these shares to the Voting
Trust Certificate Holders of record at the close of business on the record date
determined pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.06.
Section 5.03. Distributions on Liquidation. In the event of the
dissolution or total or partial liquidation of the Company, the Trustee shall
receive the moneys, securities, rights, or property to which the Trustee as a
Shareholder of the Company is entitled, and shall distribute it among the Voting
Trust Certificate Holders in proportion to their interests, as shown by the
books of the Trustee.
Section 5.04. Other Distributions to Shareholders. If at any time
during the continuation of this Agreement the Trustee shall receive or collect
any moneys (other than in payment of cash dividends) through a distribution by
the Company to its shareholders or shall receive any property (other than shares
of stock of the Company) through a distribution by the Company to its
shareholders, the Trustee shall distribute the moneys or property to the Voting
Trust Certificate Holders registered as such at the close of business on the
record date determined pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.06. The Trustee
may withhold from the distribution the deductions provided for in Section 5.05.
Section 5.05. Deductions for Distributions. There shall be deducted and
withheld from every distribution of every kind under this Agreement any taxes,
assessments, or other charges that may be required by law to be deducted or
withheld, as well as expenses and charges incurred pursuant to Section 4.07, to
the extent that the expenses and charges remain unpaid or unreimbursed.
Section 5.06. Record Date for Distributions. The Trustee may, if the
Trustee deems it advisable, fix a date not exceeding twenty (20) days preceding
any date for the payment or distribution of dividends or for the distribution of
assets or rights as a record date for the determination of the Voting Trust
Certificate Holders entitled to receive the payment or distribution, and the
Voting Trust Certificate Holders of record on that date shall be exclusively
entitled to participate in the payments or distributions. If the Trustee fails
to fix a record date, the date three (3) days prior to the date of payment or
distribution of dividends or the distribution of assets or rights shall
constitute the record date for the determination of the Voting Trust Certificate
Holders entitled to receive the payment or distribution.
Section 5.07. Subscription Rights. If the Trustee shall receive notice
of an offer by the Company of additional securities for subscription, the
Trustee shall promptly mail a copy of the notice to the Voting Trust Certificate
Holders of record. On receipt by the Trustee, at least ten (10) days prior to
the last date fixed by the Company for subscription, of a request from a Voting
Trust Certificate Holder to be subscribed in his or her behalf, accompanied by
the sum of money required to be paid for the securities, the Trustee shall make
the subscription and payment on behalf of the Voting Trust Certificate Holder.
On receiving from the Company the certificate for the securities subscribed for,
the Trustee shall issue to the Voting Trust Certificate Holder a
