 the Chief Executive Officer or the Chair and by the Secretary. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have 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 an officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

Transfer of shares of the corporation shall be made only on the stock transfer books of the corporation by the holder of record thereof or by his or her legal representative, who shall furnish proper evidence of authority to transfer, or by his or her attorney in fact authorized by power of attorney duly executed and filed with the Secretary, and on surrender for cancellation of any certificates for such shares if such shares are held in certificated form, or in accordance with customary procedures for transferring shares in uncertificated form, if such shares are held in uncertificated form. The person or entity in whose name shares of capital stock stand on the books of the corporation shall be deemed by the corporation to be the owner thereof for all purposes.

Subject to applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation and these Bylaws, the issue, transfer and registration of shares represented by certificates and of uncertificated shares shall be governed by such other regulations as the Board may establish.
