CELSION CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements, which include the accounts of Celsion Corporation (the "Company"), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. Operating results for the nine months ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending September 30, 2001. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000. Note 2.

Outstanding warrants and options that can be converted into Common Stock are not included as their effect is anti-dilutive. Note 3.

Parts held in inventory as of June 30, 2001 are held as replacements and spares for occasional repair of older systems sold in previous years.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Forward-Looking Statements Statements and terms such as "expect", "anticipate", "estimate", "plan", "believe" and words of similar import, regarding the Company's expectations as to the development and effectiveness of its technology, the potential demand for its products, and other aspects of its present and future business operations, constitute forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although the Company believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, the Company cannot guarantee that actual results will not differ materially from its expectations. In evaluating such statements, readers should specifically consider the various factors contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including those set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Risk Factors", as well as those set forth below and elsewhere in this Report. These factors include, but are not limited to unforeseen changes in the course of research and development activities and clinical trials; possible changes in cost and timing of development and testing, capital structure, and other financial items; changes in approaches to medical treatment; introduction of new products by others; possible acquisitions of other technologies, assets or businesses; and possible actions by customers, suppliers, competitors, regulatory authorities. General Since inception, the Company has incurred substantial operating losses. The Company expects operating losses to continue and possibly increase in the near term and for the foreseeable future as it continues its product development efforts, conducts clinical trials and undertakes marketing and sales activities for new products. The Company's ability to achieve profitability is dependent upon its ability to successfully integrate new technology into its thermotherapy systems, conduct clinical trials, obtain governmental approvals, and manufacture, market and sell its new products. Major obstacles facing the Company over the last several years have included inadequate funding, a negative net worth, and the slow development of the thermotherapy market due to technical shortcomings of the thermotherapy equipment available commercially. The Company has not continued to market its older thermotherapy system, principally because of the system's inability to provide heat treatment for other than surface and sub-surface tumors, and has concentrated its efforts on a new generation of thermotherapy products. The operating results of the Company have fluctuated significantly in the past on an annual and a quarterly basis. The Company expects that its operating results will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in the future and will depend on a number of factors, many of which are outside the Company's control. 8

Results of Operations Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 and Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 Revenue increased to $1,462 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared to no revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000. No significant new product revenues are expected until such time, if any, as the Company's equipment incorporating new technologies receives the necessary approvals from governmental regulatory agencies. The new equipment is currently in pivotal Phase II clinical testing. General and administrative expense increased by 145% to $1,127,585 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $460,233 for the comparable period in 2000. The increase of $667,352 was due primarily to increased staff, consulting, travel, and legal expenses. The Company also expanded and upgraded its office space, to accommodate increased staff, resulting in an increase in rent. Research and development expense decreased by 14% to $552,934 for the current period from $644,106 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 due primarily to the fact that expenditures in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 included a significant initial payment related to the licensing of gene therapy technology from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. The Company expects expenditures on research and development to increase for the remainder of the current fiscal year as it continues pivotal Phase II clinical trials for its breast cancer and BPH treatment systems. The increased general and administrative expense, discussed above, resulted in an increase in the loss from operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2001 of $574,718, to $1,679,057 from $1,104,339 in the comparable period during the prior year. Comparison of Nine Months Ended June 30, 2001 and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2000 Revenue decreased to $3,320 for the nine months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $3,465 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000. No significant new product revenues are expected until such time, if any, as the Company's equipment incorporating new technologies receives the necessary approvals from governmental regulatory agencies. The new equipment is currently in pivotal Phase II clinical testing. General and administrative expense increased by 150% to $3,041,535 for the nine months ended June 30, 2001, from $1,216,002 for the comparable period in 2000. The increase of $1,825,533 was due primarily to increased staff, consulting, travel, legal expenses and costs associated with a registration statement filed by the Company and subsequently withdrawn in December 2000. The Company also expanded and upgraded its office space, to accommodate increased staff, resulting in an increase in rent. Research and development expense decreased by 4% to $1,801,255 for the current period from $1,876,943 for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 due primarily to the fact that expenditures in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 included a significant initial payment related to the licensing of gene therapy technology from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. The Company expects expenditures on research and development to increase for the remainder of the current fiscal year as it continues pivotal Phase II clinical trials for its breast cancer and BPH treatment systems. 9

The overall increased expenditures discussed above resulted in an increase in the loss from operations for the nine month period ended June 30, 2001 of $1,749,990, to $4,839,470 from $3,089,480 in the comparable period during the prior year. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since inception, the Company's expenses have significantly exceeded its revenues, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $31,017,043 at June 30, 2001. The Company has incurred negative cash flows from operations since its inception, and has funded its operations primarily through the sale of equity securities. As of June 30, 2001, the Company had total current assets of $4,959,966, including cash and cash equivalents of $4,630,147, current liabilities of $286,396 and a working capital surplus of $4,673,570. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had total current assets of $8,900,565, including cash and cash equivalents of $8,820,196, current liabilities of $391,392, and a working capital surplus of $8,509,173. Net cash used in the Company's operating activities was $4,283,717 for the nine months ending June 30, 2001. The Company does not have any bank financing arrangements and has funded its operations in recent years primarily through private placement offerings. For all of fiscal year 2001, the Company expects to expend a total of about $7 million for research, development and administration, of which approximately $4.3 million had been expended during the nine months ended June 30, 2001. This aggregate expenditure amount is an estimate based upon assumptions such as, the scheduling and cost of institutional clinical research and testing personnel, the timing of clinical trials and other factors, not all of which are fully predictable or within the control of the Company. Accordingly, estimates and timing concerning projected expenditures and programs are subject to change. The Company expects to meet its funding needs for the remainder of fiscal year 2001 from its current resources. The Company's dependence on raising additional capital will continue at least until such time, if any, as the Company is able to begin marketing its new technologies. The Company's future capital requirements and the adequacy of its financing depend upon numerous factors, including the successful commercialization of its thermotherapy systems, progress in its product development efforts, progress with pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, the cost and timing of production arrangements, the development of effective sales and marketing activities, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing intellectual property rights, competing technological and market developments, and the development of strategic alliances for the marketing of its products. The Company will be required to obtain such funding through equity or debt financing, strategic alliances with corporate partners and others, or through other sources not yet identified. The Company does not have any committed sources of additional financing and cannot guarantee that additional funding will be available in a timely manner, or on acceptable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available in a timely manner and on acceptable terms, the Company may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate certain aspects of its operations or attempt to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its technologies, product candidates, products or potential markets. 10

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk. Not applicable. PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. On April 27, 2000, we commenced an action in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against Warren C. Stearns, a former director, Mr. Stearn's management company, SMC, and a number of Mr. Stearns' family members and colleagues who hold certain warrants for the purchase of approximately 4.1 million shares of our Common Stock. These warrants were intended as compensation for certain investment banking, brokerage and financing services rendered and to be rendered by Mr. Stearns and SMC. We have reviewed with our attorneys the circumstances surrounding the issuance of these warrants and the services that were performed or purported to be performed by Mr. Stearns and SMC, and have concluded that these warrants should be rescinded. We believe that the issuance of these warrants was in violation of Section 15 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and constitutes a voidable transaction under the provisions of Section 29 of that Act and that the right of Mr. Stearns and his affiliates, if any, to exercise these warrants was released. The defendants in the litigation have moved to dismiss the complaint on various technical grounds, including statute of limitations. On January 18, 2001, the Maryland District Court denied the defendants' motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction but granted the defendants' motion that venue was improper. The Maryland District Court transferred the matter to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, in Chicago, and referred the remaining grounds for dismissal raised in the defendants' motion to dismiss to the Illinois District Court. The Illinois District Court has scheduled a hearing to rule on the Defendants' motion to dismiss for August 15, 2001. On July 17, 2001, we filed a motion to amend the complaint to add a second count alleging that Mr. Stearns and his affiliates released any right they had to exercise the warrants through a document entitled Mutual Release by and among Celsion Corporation, Warren Stearns and Stearns Management Company. The Motion to amend was granted on July 19, 2001. No answer or motion has been filed by the defendants with respect to the second count of the complaint. Item 2. Change in Securities. During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2001, we issued the following securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"): 1. At various times during the quarter, we issued a total of 225,000 shares of its Common Stock for aggregate consideration of $56,250 upon exercise of stock options. These shares are restricted stock, endorsed with the Company's standard restricted stock legend, with a stop transfer instruction recorded by the transfer agent. Accordingly, we view the shares issued as exempt from registration under Sections 4(2) and/or 4(6) of the Securities Act. The cash consideration received by the Company was added to working capital to be used for general corporate purposes. 11

2. At various times during the quarter, we issued a total of 234,042 shares of its Common Stock upon conversion of 96 shares of its Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock. These shares are restricted stock, endorsed with the Company's standard restricted stock legend, with a stop transfer instruction recorded by the transfer agent. Accordingly, we view the shares issued as exempt from registration under Sections 3(a)(9), 4(2) and/or 4(6) of the Securities Act. Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities. Not applicable. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Securities Holders. On May 18, 2001, we held our Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting").

2.4 ORGANIZATION. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the president, the chairman or, in his or her absence, by a chairman designated by the board of directors, or in the absence of such designation, by a chairman chosen at the meeting by the vote of a majority in interest of the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote thereat. The secretary, or in his or her absence an assistant secretary, or in the absence of the secretary and any assistant secretary, a person whom the chairman of the meeting shall appoint, shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep a record of the proceedings thereof. The board of directors of the corporation shall be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and regulations of the board of directors, if any, the chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, establishing an agenda or order of business, limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants and regulation of the opening and closing of the polls for balloting.

Notices not personally delivered shall be sent charges prepaid and shall be addressed to the stockholder at the address of that stockholder appearing on the books of the corporation or given by the stockholder to the corporation for the purpose of notice. Notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or sent by telecopy, telegram or other electronic or wireless means. An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice of any stockholders' meeting, executed by the secretary, assistant secretary or any transfer agent of the corporation giving the notice, shall be prima facie evidence of the giving of such notice or report. 2.7 QUORUM. The holders of a majority in voting power of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation. If, however, such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (i) the chairman of the meeting or (ii) the stockholders by the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock, present in person or represented by proxy shall have power to adjourn the meeting. 21

When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy shall decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which, by express provision of the laws of the State of Delaware or of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a vote of a greater number or voting by classes is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of the question. If a quorum be initially present, the stockholders may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken is approved by a majority of the stockholders initially constituting the quorum. 2.8 ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE. Any stockholders' meeting, annual or special, whether or not a quorum is present, may be adjourned from time to time by the vote of the majority of the voting power of the shares represented at that meeting, either in person or by proxy. In the absence of a quorum, no other business may be transacted at that meeting except as provided in Section 2.7 of these Bylaws. When any meeting of stockholders, either annual or special, is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. However, if a new record date for the adjourned meeting is fixed or if the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days from the date set for the original meeting, then notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given. Notice of any such adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.5 and 2.6 of these Bylaws. At any adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. 2.9 VOTING. The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 of these Bylaws, subject to applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. Except as may be otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, by instruments setting forth the voting rights of specific classes or series of stocks, by these Bylaws or by applicable law, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder. Any stockholder entitled to vote on any matter may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or, except when the matter is the election of directors, may vote them against the proposal; but if the stockholder fails to specify the number of shares which the stockholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the stockholder's approving vote is with respect to all shares which the stockholder is entitled to vote. 2.10 VALIDATION OF MEETINGS; WAIVER OF NOTICE; CONSENT. The transactions of any meeting of stockholders, either annual or special, however called and noticed, and wherever held, shall be as valid as though they had been taken at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum be present either in person or by proxy. 22

Attendance by a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of and presence at that meeting, except when the person objects at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. 2.11 ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT. Subject to the rights of the holders of the shares of any series of Preferred Stock or any other class of stock or series thereof having a preference over the Common Stock as dividend or upon liquidation, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders of the corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders. 2.12 RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING; GIVING CONSENTS. For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting or to vote thereat, the board of directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days before the date of any such meeting, and in such event only stockholders of record on the date so fixed are entitled to notice and to vote, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record date, except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, by these Bylaws, by agreement or by applicable law. If the board of directors does not so fix a record date, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting unless the board of directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting, but the board of directors shall fix a new record date if the meeting is adjourned for more than thirty (30) days from the date set for the original meeting. The record date for any other purpose shall be as provided in Section 8.1 of these Bylaws. 2.13 PROXIES. Every person entitled to vote for directors, or on any other matter, shall have the right to do so either in person or by one or more agents authorized by a written proxy, which may be in the form of a telegram, cablegram, or other means of electronic transmission, signed by the person and filed with the secretary of the corporation, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be deemed signed if the stockholder's name is placed on the proxy (whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission or otherwise) by the stockholder or the stockholder's attorney-in-fact. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or by filing another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the secretary of the corporation. A proxy is not revoked by the death or incapacity of the maker unless, before the vote is counted, written notice of such death or incapacity is received by the corporation. 2.14 INSPECTORS OF ELECTION. Before any meeting of stockholders, the board of directors shall appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment and to determine such matters as quorum, validity of proxies and ballots, voting eligibility, and the tabulation of votes. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, then the chairman of the meeting may, and upon the request of any stockholder or a stockholder's proxy shall, appoint a person to fill that vacancy. 23

The inspectors of election shall perform their duties impartially, in good faith, to the best of their ability and as expeditiously as is practical. If there are three (3) inspectors of election, the decision, act or certificate of a majority is effective in all respects as the decision, act or certificate of all. Any report or certificate made by the inspectors of election is prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. ARTICLE III DIRECTORS 3.1 POWERS. Subject to the provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware and to any limitations in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws relating to action required to be approved by the stockholders or by the outstanding shares, the business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of the board of directors. 3.2 NUMBER AND CLASSIFICATION. The authorized number of directors shall be not less than three (3) nor more than nine (9). Within such limits, the number of directors shall be initially fixed at seven (7), which number may be changed by resolution of the board of directors. An indefinite number of directors may be fixed, or the definite number may be changed, by a duly adopted amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or by an amendment to this by-law duly adopted by the stockholders or the board of directors. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director's term of office expires. If, for any reason, the directors shall not have been elected at an annual meeting, they may be elected as soon thereafter as convenient at a special meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose in the manner provided in these By-Laws. The board of directors shall be divided into three classes, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, with each class to be elected for three-year terms on a staggered basis, except with respect to the initial terms of the classes, all as further set forth in Section 3.3 below. 3.3 ELECTION AND TERM OF OFFICE OF DIRECTORS. The terms of office of the initial Class I directors shall expire at the first annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation after the election of such initial Class I directors, the terms of officer of the initial Class II directors shall expire at the second annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation after the election of such initial Class II directors and the terms of office of the initial Class III directors shall expire at the third annual meeting after the election of such initial Class III directors. At each annual meeting following such classification and division of the members of the Board of Directors, a number of directors equal to the number of directorships in the class the term of which expires at the time of such meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation. Each director shall hold office for the class term for which he is elected and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death. Directors need not be stockholders unless so required by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-Laws. 24

3.4 RESIGNATIONS AND VACANCIES. Any director may resign on giving written notice to the president, the chairman, the secretary or the board of directors, unless the notice specifies a later time for that resignation to become effective. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws: (a) Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. A director elected by the remainder of the Board of Directors to fill a vacancy shall hold office for the remaining term of the predecessor director and until his or her successor is elected and has qualified, or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death. (b) Whenever the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series may be filled by a majority of the directors elected by such class or classes or series thereof then in office, or by a sole remaining director so elected. If at any time, by reason of death or resignation or other cause, the corporation should have no directors in office, then any officer or any stockholder or an executor, administrator, trustee or guardian of a stockholder, or other fiduciary entrusted with like responsibility for the person or estate of a stockholder, may call a special meeting of stockholders in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, or may apply to the Court of Chancery for a decree summarily ordering an election as provided in Section 211 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. 3.5 REMOVAL.

The corporation shall advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Bylaw or otherwise; provided, however, that the corporation shall not be required to advance expenses to any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless the proceeding was authorized in advance by the board of directors of the corporation.

A proper purpose shall mean a purpose reasonably related to such person's interest as a stockholder. In every instance where an attorney or other agent is the person who seeks the right to inspection, the demand under oath shall be accompanied by a power of attorney or such other writing that authorizes the attorney or other agent to so act on behalf of the stockholder. The demand under oath shall be directed to the corporation at its registered office in Delaware or at its principal place of business. 7.2 INSPECTION BY DIRECTOR.

The Court may summarily order the corporation to permit the director to inspect any and all books and records, the stock ledger, and the stock list and to make copies or extracts therefrom. The Court may, in its discretion, prescribe any limitations or conditions with reference to the inspection, or award such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper. ARTICLE VIII GENERAL MATTERS 8.1 RECORD DATE FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN NOTICE AND VOTING. For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any other lawful action, the board of 31

directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) days before any such action. In that case, only stockholders of record at the close of business on the date so fixed are entitled to receive the dividend, distribution or allotment of rights, or to exercise such rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record date so fixed, except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, by these Bylaws, by agreement or by law. If the board of directors does not so fix a record date, then the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board adopts the applicable resolution or the sixtieth (60th) day before the date of that action, whichever is later. 8.2 CHECKS; DRAFTS; EVIDENCES OF INDEBTEDNESS. From time to time, the board of directors shall determine by resolution which person or persons may sign or endorse all checks, drafts, other orders for payment of money, notes or other evidences of indebtedness that are issued in the name of or payable to the corporation, and only the persons so authorized shall sign or endorse those instruments. 8.3 CORPORATE CONTRACTS AND INSTRUMENTS; HOW EXECUTED.

Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate has 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 he or she were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. 8.6 SPECIAL DESIGNATION ON CERTIFICATES. If the corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, then the powers, the designations, the preferences, and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate that the corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 202 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, in lieu of the foregoing requirements there may be set forth on the face or back of the certificate that the corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock a statement that the corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, the designations, the preferences, and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights. 32

The board of directors may adopt such other provisions and restrictions with reference to lost certificates, not inconsistent with applicable law, as it shall in its discretion deem appropriate. 8.8 CONSTRUCTION; DEFINITIONS. Unless the context requires otherwise, the general provisions, rules of construction, and definitions in the General Corporation Law of Delaware shall govern the construction of these Bylaws. Without limiting the generality of this provision, the singular number includes the plural, the plural number includes the singular, and the term "person" includes both a corporation and a natural person. 8.9 PROVISIONS ADDITIONAL TO PROVISIONS OF LAW. All restrictions, limitations, requirements and other provisions of these Bylaws shall be construed, insofar as possible, as supplemental and additional to all provisions of law applicable to the subject matter thereof and shall be fully complied with in addition to the said provisions of law unless such compliance shall be illegal. 8.10 PROVISIONS CONTRARY TO PROVISIONS OF LAW. Any article, section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause or phrase of these Bylaws which upon being construed in the manner provided in Section 8.9 hereof, shall be contrary to or inconsistent with any applicable provisions of law, shall not apply so long as said provisions of law shall remain in effect, but such result shall not affect the validity or applicability of any other portions of these Bylaws, it being hereby declared that these Bylaws would have been adopted and each article, section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause or phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more articles, sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses or phrases is or are illegal. 8.11 NOTICES.

ARTICLE IX AMENDMENTS Subject to Section 6.7 hereof, the original or other bylaws of the corporation may be adopted, amended or repealed by the stockholders entitled to vote; provided, however, that the corporation may, in its certificate of incorporation, confer the power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws upon the directors. The fact that such power has been so conferred upon the directors shall not divest the stockholders of the power, nor limit their power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws. Whenever an amendment or new bylaw is adopted, it shall be copied in the book of bylaws with the original bylaws, in the appropriate place. If any bylaw is repealed, the fact of repeal with the date of the meeting at which the repeal was enacted or the filing of the operative written consent(s) shall be stated in said book. 34

Termination by Executive. 12.1 If the Executive shall terminate his employment under this Agreement during the Initial Term without the express written consent of the Company, then, for purposes of establishing the rights of the Executive upon such termination, such termination shall be deemed the equivalent of a termination for Cause under Section 10.1, and the Executive shall have only those rights with regard to compensation as are set forth in Section 12.2, and the restrictive provisions of Section 13 below shall fully apply. 12.2 If the Executive shall terminate his employment under this Agreement during any Renewal Term without the express written consent of the Company, then, for purposes of establishing the rights of the Executive upon such termination, the Executive shall be entitled (i) to receive all unpaid Base Salary pro-rated up to the date of termination, and (ii) for a period of thirty (30) days following the date of termination, to exercise any unexercised option to acquire Common Stock under either Section 4 or Section 5 hereof that was exercisable by the Executive on the date preceding the date of termination. 43
