The number of directors shall be such number, not less than three nor more than five, as may be designated in the by-laws and if not designated, as may from time to time be elected by the shareholders, except that when all of the outstanding shares are held of record by fewer than three shareholders, then there need be only as many directors as there are shareholders, but this shall not prevent a greater number of directors as aforesaid.

ARTICLE X SHAREHOLDERS' CONSENTS Whenever the affirmative vote of shareholders is required to authorize or constitute corporate action, the consent in writing to such action signed only by shareholders holding that proportion of the total voting power on the question which is required by law or by these Articles of Incorporation, whichever requirement is higher, shall be sufficient for the purpose, without necessity for a meeting of shareholders. ARTICLE XI REVERSION Cash, property or share dividends, shares issuable to shareholders in connection with a reclassification of stock, and the redemption price of redeemed shares, which are not claimed by the shareholders entitled thereto within one year after the dividend or redemption price became payable or the shares became issuable, despite reasonable efforts by the corporation to pay the dividend or redemption price or deliver the certificates for the shares to such shareholders within such time, shall, at the expiration of such time, revert in full ownership to the corporation, and the corporation's obligation to pay such dividend or redemption price or issue such shares, as the case may be, shall thereupon cease; provided that the board of directors may, at any time, for any reason satisfactory to it, but need not, authorize (a) payment of the amount of any cash or property dividend or redemption price or (b) issuance of any shares, ownership of which has reverted to the corporation pursuant to this article, to the entity who or which would be entitled thereto had such reversion not occurred.
