 A Michigan Corporation 
 As Amended and Restated February 10, 2004 
  
 ARTICLE I. OFFICES 
  
 Section 1. Registered Office. The registered office of the Corporation shall be as specified in the Articles of Incorporation. The Corporation shall keep records containing the names and addresses of all shareholders, the number,
class and series of shares held by each, and the dates when they respectively became holders of record thereof, at its registered office or at the office of its transfer agent. 
  
 Section 2. Other Offices. The business of the Corporation may be transacted in such locations other than the
registered office, within or outside the State of Michigan, as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine. 
  
 ARTICLE II. CAPITAL STOCK 
  
 Section 1. Stock Certificates. Certificates representing shares of the capital stock of the Corporation shall be in such form as is approved by the
Board of Directors. Certificates shall be signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice President, and may also be signed by another officer designated by the Board of Directors, and shall be sealed
with the seal of the Corporation, or a facsimile thereof, if one be adopted. The signatures of the officers may be facsimiles. In the event an officer who has signed, or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon, a certificate ceases to be such
officer before the certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer at the date of issue. 
  
 Section 2. Replacement of Lost or Destroyed Certificates. In the event of the loss or destruction of a stock certificate, no new certificate shall
be issued in place thereof until the Corporation has received from the registered holder such assurances, representations, warranties and/or guarantees as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, shall deem advisable, and until the
Corporation receives sufficient indemnification protecting it against any claim that may be made on account of such loss or destroyed certificate, or the issuance of any new certificate in place thereof, including an indemnity bond in such amount
and with sureties, if any, as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, deems advisable. 
  
 Section 3. Transfer of Shares. Shares of stock of the Corporation shall be transferable only upon the books of the Corporation. The old certificates shall be surrendered to the Corporation by delivery thereof
to the person in charge of the stock transfer books of the Corporation, or to such other person as the Board of Directors may designate, properly endorsed for transfer, and such certificates shall be canceled before a new certificate is issued. The
Corporation shall be entitled to treat the person in whose name any share, right or option is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim with respect thereto, regardless of any
notice thereof, except as may be specifically required by the laws of the State of Michigan. 
  
 Section 4. Rules Governing Stock Certificates. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to make all such rules and regulations as they may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer and
registration of certificates of stock, and may appoint a transfer agent and a registrar of transfer, and may require all such certificates to bear the signature of such transfer agent and of such registrar of transfers. 
  
 Section 5. Record Date for Stock Rights. The Board of Directors may
fix in advance a date not exceeding sixty (60) days preceding the date of payment of any dividend, or the date for the allotment of rights, or the date when any change or conversion or exchange of capital stock shall go into effect, as a record date
for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive payment of any such dividends, or any such allotment of rights, or to exercise the rights with respect to any such change, conversion, or exchange of capital stock; and in such case, only
shareholders of record on the date so fixed shall be entitled to receive payment of such dividends, or allotment of rights, or exercise such rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any stock on the books of the Corporation after
any such record date is fixed. 
  
 In the event the Board of
Directors shall fail to fix a record date as provided in this Section 5 of Article II, the record date for the purposes specified herein shall be the close of business on the day on which the resolution of the Board of Directors relating thereto is
adopted. 

 Section 6. Dividends. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, may from time to time declare and
make a distribution to shareholders in respect of the Corporation’s outstanding shares, payable in cash, the Corporation’s indebtedness (but not the Corporation’s shares) or the Corporation’s other property, including the shares
or indebtedness of other corporations; provided, however, no such distribution shall be made if, after giving effect to the distribution, the Corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or the
Corporation’s total assets would be less than its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed if the Corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders
whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution. 
  
 In addition, the Board of Directors, in its discretion, from time to time may declare and direct the payment of a share dividend of the Corporation’s shares, issued pro rata and without consideration, to the
Corporation’s shareholders or to the shareholders of one or more classes or series; provided, however, shares of one class or series may not be issued as a share dividend in respect of shares of another class or series unless the Articles of
Incorporation so authorize, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the class or series to be issued approve the issue, or there are no outstanding shares of the class or series to be issued. 
  
 Section 7. Treasury Shares. Shares that have been issued and
reacquired by the Corporation shall constitute authorized but unissued shares. 
  
 Section 8. Redemption of Control Shares. Control shares acquired in a control share acquisition, with respect to which no acquiring person statement has been filed with the Corporation, shall, at any time
during the period ending 60 days after the last acquisition of control shares or the power to direct the exercise of voting power of control shares by the acquiring person, be subject to redemption by the Corporation. After an acquiring person
statement has been filed with the Corporation and after the meeting at which the voting rights of the control shares acquired in a control share acquisition are submitted to the shareholders, the shares shall be subject to redemption by the
Corporation unless the shares are accorded full voting rights by the shareholders as provided in Section 798 of the Michigan Business Corporation Act. Redemptions of shares pursuant to this bylaw shall be at the fair value of the shares pursuant to
procedures adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. 
  
 The terms “control shares,” “control share acquisition,” “acquiring person statement” “acquiring person” and “fair value” as used in this bylaw, shall have the meanings ascribed to them,
respectively, in Chapter 7B of the Michigan Business Corporation Act. 
  
 ARTICLE III. SHAREHOLDERS 
  
 Section 1. Place
of Meetings. Meetings of shareholders shall be held at the registered office of the Corporation or at such other place, within or outside the State of Michigan, as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors; provided, however,
if a meeting of shareholders is to be held at a place other than the registered office of the Corporation, the notice of the meeting shall designate such place. 
  

Section 2. Annual Meeting. Annual meetings of shareholders for election of directors and for such other business as may come before the meeting
shall be held on such date prior to June 1 of each year and at such time as may be fixed from year to year by the Board of Directors. 
  
 Section 3. Special Meetings. Special meetings of shareholders may be called by the Chairman or the Secretary, and shall be called by either of them
pursuant to resolution therefor by the Board of Directors, or upon receipt by them of a request in writing, stating the purpose or purposes thereof, and signed by shareholders of record owning a majority of the voting shares of the Corporation
issued and outstanding. 
  
 Section 4. Record Date for Notice
and Vote. The Board of Directors may fix a date not more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days before the date of a shareholders’ meeting as the record date for the purposes of determining shareholders entitled to notice of and
to vote at the meeting or adjournments thereof; provided, however, that the record date shall not precede the date on which the Board takes action to fix the record date. In the event the Board of Directors fails to fix a record date as provided in
this Section 4 of Article III, the record date for determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall be the close of business on the day preceding the day on which notice is given, or if no notice is
given, the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. 
  
 Section 5. Notice of Shareholder Meetings. Written notice of the time, place, and purposes of any meeting of shareholders shall be given to shareholders entitled to vote thereat, not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days
before the date of the meeting, which notice may be given either by delivery in person to such shareholders or by mailing such notice to shareholders at their addresses as the same appear on the stock books of the Corporation. A shareholder’s
attendance at a meeting will result in a waiver of objection to lack of notice or defective notice unless the shareholder, at the beginning of the meeting, objects to the holding of the meeting or the transaction of business at the meeting, and a
waiver of objection to consideration of a particular matter at the meeting as not being within the purpose or purposes described in the meeting notice unless the shareholder objects to considering the matter when it is presented.

 Section 6. Voting Lists. The Corporation’s officer or agent having charge of its stock
transfer books shall prepare and certify a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at a shareholders’ meeting or any adjournment thereof, which list shall be arranged alphabetically within each class and series, and shall show the
address of, and the number of shares held by each share holder. The list shall be produced at the time and place of the meeting of shareholders and be subject to inspection by any shareholder at any time during the meeting. If for any reason the
requirements with respect to the shareholder list specified in this Section 6 of Article III have not been complied with, any shareholder, either in person or by proxy, who in good faith challenges the existence of sufficient votes to carry any
action at the meeting, may demand that the meeting be adjourned and the same shall be adjourned until the requirements are complied with; provided, however, that failure to comply with such requirements does not affect the validity of any action
taken at the meeting before such demand is made. 
  
 Section 7.
Voting. Each shareholder entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders or to express consent or dissent without a meeting, shall be entitled to one (1) vote, in person or by proxy, for each share entitled to vote that is held by such
shareholder; provided, however, no proxy shall be voted after three years from its date unless such proxy expressly provides for a longer period. A vote may be cast either orally or in writing as announced or directed by the person presiding at the
meeting prior to the taking of the vote. When an action other than the election of directors is to be taken by vote of the shareholders, it shall be authorized by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote on the action,
unless a greater vote is required by the Michigan Business Corporation Act. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast in an election. 
  
 Section 8. Quorum. Shares equaling a majority of all of the voting shares of the capital stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding
represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at the meeting. Meetings at which less than a quorum is represented may be adjourned by a vote of a majority of the shares present to a further date without further notice other than the
announcement at such meeting, and when the quorum shall be present upon such adjourned date, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called. Shareholders present in person or by proxy at any
meeting of shareholders may continue to do business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of shareholders to leave less than a quorum. 
  
 Section 9. Conduct of Meetings. The officer who is to preside at meetings of shareholders pursuant to Article V of these Bylaws, or his or her
designee, shall determine the agenda, the order in which business shall be conducted and rules for the conduct of the meeting (which shall be fair to shareholders), unless the agenda, the order of business and/or such rules have been fixed by the
Board of Directors. Such officer or designee shall call meetings of shareholders to order and shall preside, shall appoint a person to act as secretary of the meeting, and may appoint a parliamentarian, who may be the same person as the secretary.

  
 Section 10. Inspectors of Elections. The Board of
Directors may, in advance of a meeting of shareholders, appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof. In the event inspectors are not so appointed, or an appointed inspector fails to appear or act, the person
presiding at the meeting of shareholders may appoint one or more persons to fill such vacancy or vacancies, or to act as inspector. The inspector(s) shall determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the shares
represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, the validity and effect of proxies, and shall receive votes, ballots, or consents, hear and determine challenges and questions arising in connection with the right to vote, count and tabulate
votes, ballots or consents, determine the results, and do such acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all shareholders. 
  
 Section 11. Notice of Shareholder Proposals. 
  
 (a) Except for the election of directors, which is governed by Article V of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, only such business shall be
conducted at any meeting of shareholders, and only such proposals shall be acted upon at such meetings, as shall have been brought before the meeting: (i) by, or at the direction of, the Board of Directors; or (ii) by any shareholder of the
Corporation who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section of these Bylaws. For a proposal to be properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the
Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than sixty (60) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior to the
scheduled meeting date, regardless of any postponements, deferrals, or adjournments of that meeting to any later date; provided, however, that if less than seventy (70) days’ notice, or prior public disclosure of the date of a scheduled meeting
is given or made, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be delivered or received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10) day following the earlier of the day on which such notice of the date of the scheduled meeting was mailed
or the day on which such public disclosure was made. A shareholder’s notice to the Secretary shall set forth, as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting: (i) a brief description of a proposal desired to be brought
before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting; (ii) the name and address, as they appear, on the Corporation’s stock record of the shareholder proposing such business and any other shareholders known by such
shareholder to be supporting such proposal; (iii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation’s stock which are beneficially owned by the shareholder on the date of such shareholder notice and by any other shareholders known by such
shareholder to be supporting such proposal on the date of such shareholder notice; and (iv) any financial interest of the shareholder in such proposal. 
  

 3 

 (b) If the presiding officer at the meeting of shareholders determines that a shareholder proposal was
not made in accordance with the terms of this Section, the presiding officer shall declare the matter to be out of order and the matter shall not be acted upon at the meeting. 
  
 (c) Nothing contained in this Section shall prevent the consideration and approval or disapproval at any meeting of
shareholders of reports of officers, directors, and committees of the Board of Directors, but, in connection with such reports, no business shall be acted upon at such meeting unless stated, filed, and received as provided herein.

 7First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Outside Directors Stock Option Plan

 Exhibit 10_B 
  
 FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE 
 X-RITE, INCORPORATED AMENDED AND RESTATED 
 OUTSIDE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION PLAN

  
 THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE X-RITE, INCORPORATED AMENDED
AND RESTATED OUTSIDE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTION PLAN (the “Plan”) has been adopted by the Board of Directors of X-Rite, Incorporated (the “Company”) as of November 25, 2003, as follows: 
  
 BACKGROUND 
  
 1. Effective January 26, 2003, the Company’s Board of Directors took action to amend and
restate the Plan, subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders. 
  
 2. Effective May 19, 2003, the Company’s shareholders approved the Plan. 
  
 3. Under Section 3.3 of the Plan, the Company’s Board of Directors may amend the Plan from time to time, except with respect to certain matters. 
  

4. The subject of this Amendment is within the Board of Directors’ authority under the Plan. 
  
 5. The Board of Directors has elected to amend Section 1.5 of the Plan to provide for the pro-ration of the stock options granted to a
director during a term in which that director reaches age 72. 
  
 AGREEMENT 
  
 1. Section 1.5 of the Plan is hereby deleted in its
entirety and replaced as follows: 
  

	 	1.5	Eligibility; Grant of Options. Only Outside Directors shall be eligible to receive options under this Plan. Effective as of the date of each annual meeting of the shareholders of
X-Rite, Incorporated, each Outside Director who is newly elected or continues in office as a director subsequent to that meeting shall be granted an option to acquire 8,000 shares of stock; provided, however, that as of the date of the annual
meeting immediately prior to the term year in which any director will attain age 72 (the “Final Annual Meeting”), the option granted shall be only for that number of shares that is equal to 8,000 shares of stock multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the number of days to be served from the Final Annual Meeting to the date on which the director attains age 72, and the denominator of which shall be 365; the result shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Any
Outside Director who is elected as a director by the Board shall be granted an option to acquire that number of shares that is equal to 8,000 shares of stock multiplied by a fraction that is equal to 365 minus the number of days that have elapsed
since the last annual meeting of shareholders and dividing that difference by 365; the result shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. 

  
 2. Except as set forth above, the Plan and its terms are hereby ratified and shall continue in full force and effect. 
  
 CERTIFICATION 
  
 The foregoing Amendment to the Plan was duly adopted and approved by the
Company’s Board of Directors on November 25, 2003.
