ARTICLE XI LIMITATION OF DIRECTOR LIABILITY No director of the corporation shall be personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for his or her conduct as a director on or after the date this Article become effective, except for: (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law by the director, (ii) approval of certain distributions or loans in violation of RCW 23B.08.310, or (iii) any transaction from which the director will personally receive a benefit in money, property or services to which the director is not legally entitled. If, after approval by shareholders of this Article, the Washington Business Corporation Act, is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act, as so amended. Any amendment to or repeal of this Article shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. ARTICLE XII DIRECTORS The number of directors which shall constitute the entire Board of Directors of this corporation shall be not less than three (3) nor more than fifteen (15). Within these limits, the number of directors shall be fixed from time to time by resolutions of the Board of Directors. The Board shall be divided into three classes: Class I Directors, Class II Directors and Class III Directors. Each such class of directors shall be as nearly equal in number of directors as possible. Each director shall serve for a term ending at the third annual shareholders' meeting following the annual meeting at which such director was elected; provided, however, that the directors first elected as Class I Directors shall serve for a term ending at the annual meeting to be held in the year following the first election of directors by classes, the directors first elected as Class II Directors shall serve for a term ending at the annual meeting to be held in the second year following the first election of directors -5- by classes and the directors first elected as Class III Directors shall serve for a term ending at the annual meeting to be held in the third year following the first election of directors by classes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each director shall serve until his successor shall have been elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. At each annual election, the directors chosen to succeed those whose terms then expire shall be identified as being of the same class as the directors they succeed, unless, by reason of any intervening changes in the authorized number of directors, the Board shall designate one or more directorships whose terms then expire as directorships of another class in order more nearly to achieve equality in the number of directors among the classes. Newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors or any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, removal or other cause shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors. Any director elected to fill a vacancy in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be of the same class as the director he succeeds and shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of such class, unless, by reason of any previous changes in the authorized number of directors, the Board shall designate the vacant directorship as a directorship of another class in order more nearly to achieve equality in the number of directors among the classes. Notwithstanding the rule that the three classes shall be nearly equal in number of directors as possible, upon any change in the authorized number of directors, each director then continuing to serve as such will nevertheless continue as director of the class of which he is a member, until the expiration of his current term or his earlier death, resignation or removal. If there are any newly created directorships or vacancies on the Board, the Board shall allocate any such directorship or vacancy to that of the available classes of directors whose term of office is due to expire at the earliest date following such allocation. At any meeting of shareholders called expressly for that purpose, the entire Board of Directors, or any member thereof, may be removed from office at any time, but only (1) for Cause and (2) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares then entitled to vote at an election of such directors. For purpose of this Article XII, "Cause" shall be construed to exist only if the director whose removal is proposed (i) has been convicted of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable for engaging in an act involving willful malfeasance which had a material adverse effect on this corporation. Where a question of removal of a director for Cause is to be presented for shareholder consideration, an opportunity must be provided such director to present his or her defense to the shareholders by a statement which must accompany or precede the notice of the meeting at which removal of such director for Cause shall be considered. Under such circumstances the director involved shall be served with notice of the meeting at which such action is proposed to be taken together with a statement of the specific charges and shall be given an opportunity to be present and to be heard at the meeting at which his or her removal is considered. -6- DATED as of this 27 day of January, 1998.
