HALLIBURTON COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1. Management Representation
The Company employs accounting policies that are in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires Company management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Ultimate results could differ from those estimates.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
present information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and applicable
rules of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information or
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1995
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of the Company, the financial statements include all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of
September 30, 1996; the results of its operations for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995; and its cash flows for the nine months then
ended. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1996 and 1995 may not be indicative of results for the full year. In
connection with the discontinuance of the Company's insurance segment, the
Company has adopted a classified balance sheet format. Certain prior year
amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
Note 2. Inventories

1996 1995
------------ -------------
Millions of dollars
Sales items $ 96.1 $ 85.2
Supplies and parts 154.5 121.7
Work in process 42.2 27.1
Raw materials 19.5 17.5
----------- -------------
Total $ 312.3 $ 251.5
=========== =============
About 40% of all sales items (including related work in process and raw
materials) are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. If the average
cost method had been in use for inventories on the LIFO basis, total inventories
would have been about $18.3 million higher than reported at September 30, 1996.
Note 3. General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses were $43.7 million and $33.8 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. General
and administrative expenses were $118.2 million and $112.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Note 4. Income Per Share
Income per share amounts are based upon the average number of common and
common share equivalents outstanding. Common share equivalents included in the
computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options
which have a dilutive effect.
5
Note 5. Related Companies
The Company conducts some of its operations through various joint venture
and other partnership forms which are accounted for using the equity method.
Included in the Company's revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996
and 1995 are equity in income of related companies of $25.5 million and $23.3
million, respectively. The amounts included in revenues for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are $66.1 million and $63.7 million,
respectively. European Marine Contractors, Limited (EMC), which is 50% owned by
the Company and part of Brown & Root Energy Services, specializes in
engineering, procurement and construction of marine pipelines. Summarized
operating results for 100% of the operations of EMC are as follows:

In the second quarter of 1996, M-I Drilling Fluids, L.L.C., one of the
Company's joint ventures which is 36% owned and a part of Energy Services,
purchased Anchor Drilling Fluids. The Company's share of the purchase price was
$41.3 million and is included in cash flows from other investing activities.
Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) in
remedial activities to clean up various "Superfund" sites under applicable
Federal law which imposes joint and several liability, if the harm is
indivisible, on certain persons without regard to fault, the legality of the
original disposal, or ownership of the site. Although it is very difficult to
quantify the potential impact of compliance with environmental protection laws,
management of the Company believes that any liability of the Company with
respect to all but one of such sites will not have a material adverse effect on
the results of operations of the Company. With respect to a site in Jasper
County, Missouri (Jasper County Superfund Site), sufficient information has not
been developed to permit management to make such a determination and management
believes the process of determining the nature and extent of remediation at this
site and the total costs thereof will be lengthy. Brown & Root, Inc. (Brown &
Root), a subsidiary of the Company, has been named as a PRP with respect to the
Jasper County Superfund Site by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The
Jasper County Superfund Site includes areas of mining activity that occurred
from the 1800's through the mid 1950's in the southwestern portion of Missouri.
The site contains lead and zinc mine tailings produced from mining activity.
Brown & Root is one of nine participating PRPs which have agreed to perform a
Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS), which, due to various delays,
is not expected to be completed until the fourth quarter of 1997. Although the
entire Jasper County Superfund Site comprises 237 square miles as listed on the
National Priorities List, in the RI/FS scope of work, the EPA has only
identified seven areas, or subsites, within this area that need to be studied
and then possibly remediated by the PRPs. Additionally, the Administrative Order
on Consent for the RI/FS only requires Brown & Root to perform RI/FS work at one
of the subsites within the site, the Neck/Alba subsite, which only comprises
3.95 square miles. Brown & Root's share of the cost of such a study is not
expected to be material. At the present time Brown & Root cannot determine the
extent of its liability, if any, for remediation costs on any reasonably
practicable basis.
The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various other legal
proceedings. Although the ultimate dispositions of such proceedings are not
presently determinable, in the opinion of the Company any liability that may
ensue will not be material in relation to the consolidated financial position
and results of operations of the Company.

Note 7. Acquisitions
On October 4, 1996, the Company completed its acquisition of Landmark
Graphics Corporation (Landmark) through the merger of Landmark with a subsidiary
of the Company, the conversion of the outstanding Landmark common stock into an
aggregate of approximately 10.2 million shares of common stock of the Company
and the assumption by the Company of outstanding Landmark stock options ( for
the exercise of which the Company has reserved an aggregate of approximately 1.5
million shares of common stock of the Company).
Landmark, together with its subsidiaries, designs, markets and supports
sophisticated computer-aided exploration and computer-aided reservoir management
software and systems. Geologists, geophysicists, petrophysicists and engineers
in more than 70 countries use Landmark products in exploration for and
production of oil and gas.
Landmark offers an extensive line of integrated software applications for
seismic processing, three dimensional and two dimensional seismic
interpretation, geologic and petrophysical interpretation, mapping and modeling,
well log and production analysis, drilling and production engineering and data
management. Through its service consulting business, Landmark provides software
training, on-site support and assistance in designing computer networks and
integrating applications and data. In addition to providing software products,
Landmark is a value-added reseller of workstations and other hardware and
provides a range of services, including software and systems support and
training, systems configuration and network design and data loading and
management.
The acquisition has been accounted for using the "pooling of interests"
method of accounting for business combinations. For the fiscal year ended June
30, 1996, Landmark had consolidated revenues of $187.3 million, operating income
of $4 million and net income from continuing operations of $5.3 million. At June
30, 1996, Landmark had consolidated total assets of $231.1 million and
stockholders' equity of $165.4 million.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not give
retroactive effect to this transaction as it was not completed until after the
end of the current reporting period. The following supplemental unaudited pro
forma combined financial information is based on the unaudited consolidated
financial statements of the Company and Landmark to give effect to the merger
using the pooling of interests method of accounting for business combinations.
The following information may not necessarily reflect the results of operations
or the financial position of the Company that would have actually resulted had
the merger occurred as of the date and for the periods indicated or reflect the
future earnings of the Company.

for costs incurred for merging with the Company. Operating income for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 include special charges recorded by Landmark of
$20.5 million ($16.3 million after tax) for the write-off of in-process research
and development activities acquired in connection with the purchase by Landmark
of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities of Western Atlas
International, Inc. and of Verticomp and the write-off of redundant assets and
activities recorded in the three-month period ended March 31, 1996, as well as
the costs for merging with the Company noted above.
Note 8. Discontinued Operations
On January 23, 1996, the Company spun-off its property and casualty
insurance subsidiary, Highlands Insurance Group, Inc. (HIGI), in a tax-free
distribution to holders of Halliburton Company common stock. Each common
shareholder of the Company received one share of common stock of HIGI for every
ten shares of Halliburton Company common stock. Approximately 11.4 million
common shares of HIGI were issued in conjunction with the spin-off.
The following summarizes the results of operations of the discontinued
operations:

Note 9. Special Charges
In September 1996, the Company recognized special charges to operating
income of $65.3 million ($42.7 million after tax) related to reorganization of
Engineering and Construction Services, severance costs for combining general
support functions throughout the Company, and certain other business structure
costs.
The Company recognized severance costs of $41.0 million to provide for the
termination of approximately one thousand employees related to reorganization
efforts at Engineering and Construction Services and plans to combine various
administrative support functions into combined shared services for the Company.
The terminations impact mostly middle and senior management levels within
business unit operations, business unit support, and general and administrative
areas. The terminations are to occur primarily during the fourth quarter of 1996
and first half of 1997. The Company also recognized $20.2 million of costs
associated with restructuring certain Engineering and Construction Services
businesses, providing for excess lease space and other items.
The above charges to net income were offset by tax credits during the
quarter of $43.7 million due to the recognition of net operating loss
carryforwards and the settlement during the quarter of various issues with the
Internal Revenue Service. The Company reached agreement with the Internal
Revenue Service (IRS) and recognized net operating loss carryforwards of $62.5
million ($22.5 million in tax benefits) from the 1989 tax year. The net
operating loss carryforwards are expected to be utilized in the 1996 and 1997
tax years. In addition, the Company also reached agreement with the IRS on
issues related to intercompany pricing of goods and services for the tax years
1989 through 1992 and entered into an advanced pricing agreement for the tax
years 1993 through 1998. As a result of these agreements with the IRS, the
Company recognized tax benefits of $16.1 million. The Company also recognized
net operating loss carryforwards of $14.0 million ($5.1 million in tax benefits)
in certain foreign areas due to improving profitability and restructuring of
foreign operations.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND OUTLOOK
In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes that the statements in this
10-Q and elsewhere, which are forward looking and which provide other than
historical information, involve risks and uncertainties that may impact the
Company's actual results of operations. Future trends for revenues and
profitability remain difficult to predict in the industries served by the
Company. The Company continues to face many risks and uncertainties including:
unsettled political conditions, war, civil unrest, currency controls and
governmental actions in countries of operation; trade restrictions and economic
embargoes; environmental laws, including those that require emission performance
standards for new and existing facilities; the magnitude of governmental
spending for military and logistical support of the type provided by the
Company; operations in higher risk countries; technological and structural
changes in the industries served by the Company; changes in the price of oil and
natural gas; changes in capital spending by customers in the hydrocarbon
industry for exploration, development, production, processing, refining and
pipeline delivery networks; changes in capital spending by customers in the wood
pulp and paper industries for plants and equipment; and changes in world
economic conditions related to capital spending by governments for
infrastructure.
The Company operates in over 100 countries around the world to provide a
variety of energy services and engineering and construction services. Operations
in some countries may be affected by unsettled political conditions,
expropriation or other governmental actions and exchange control and currency
problems. Recently enacted United States law provides for sanctions on foreign
companies and, in some cases, their affiliates which make certain investments in
petroleum resources in Iran or Libya or sell to such countries certain products
or technology which enhance the ability of those countries to develop their
petroleum resources. This new law may adversely impact the Company's ability to
provide services and/or products to some of its foreign customers, including the
cessation of operations and trading by certain foreign subsidiaries of the
Company with customers in such countries. Although at the present time it is not
possible to determine the exact nature of the impact of such law on the Company,
it is possible that the Company's ability to realize the value of equipment and
other assets, including accounts receivable, associated with such business may
become impaired and that such impairment may be material to the results of
operations of the Company for some future period.

million compared with $806.8 million in the same quarter of the prior year due
primarily to higher activity levels in the energy and chemicals industries as
well as increased activity pursuant to a service contract with the US Department
of Defense to provide technical and logistical support for military peacekeeping
operations in Bosnia.
Operating income
Consolidated operating income decreased 42% to $64.8 million in the third
quarter of 1996 compared with $111.1 million in the same quarter of the prior
year. The operating income in the third quarter of 1996 includes special charges
of $65.3 million for the reorganization of Engineering and Construction
Services, reorganization of various company-wide administrative support
functions, and other business structure costs. See Note 9 to the condensed
consolidated financial statements for additional information about these
charges. Excluding the special charges noted above, operating income for the
quarter was $130.1 million, or 17% higher than the prior year period. Excluding
the special charges, approximately 68% of the Company's consolidated operating
income was derived from international activities in the third quarter of 1996
compared to 71% in the third quarter of 1995.
Energy Services operating income increased 15% to $101.8 million in the
third quarter of 1996 compared with $88.2 million in the same quarter of the
prior year. The operating margin for the third quarter of 1996 was 13.1%
compared to the prior year operating margin of 12.9%. The increase in operating
income in 1996 is related to higher activity levels in several areas of the
world: North America in the Permian Basin and South Texas areas and from
deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico; Europe/Africa, primarily related to
the North Sea, Angola/Cabinda area, and the Congo basin; Asia/Pacific; the
Middle East; Russia; and Kazakhstan.
Engineering and Construction Services operating income increased 20% to
$37.5 million compared to $31.2 million in the third quarter of the prior year.
The increase in operating income includes profits from projects for the pulp and
paper and chemicals industry customers and income from the service contract with
the US Department of Defense mentioned above. These increases were partially
offset by lower energy income primarily driven by lower activity by European
Marine Contractors, Limited, and losses on several civil jobs. Operating margins
were 3.6% in the third quarter of 1996 compared to 3.9% in the prior year third
quarter.
Nonoperating items
Interest expense decreased to $6.8 million in the third quarter of 1996
compared to $15.0 million in the same quarter of the prior year due primarily to
the redemption of the zero coupon convertible subordinated debentures in
September 1995, and the redemption of the $42.0 million term loan in December
1995.
Interest income decreased in 1996 primarily due to lower levels of
invested cash due mainly to the redemption of long-term debt.
Foreign currency losses were $0.5 million for the third quarter of 1996 as
compared to $2.5 million for the same quarter in 1995. The third quarter of the
prior year included losses in the Nigerian naira.
10
The benefit (provision) for income taxes in the third quarter of 1996 is a
benefit of $21.3 million as compared to a provision of $34.9 million in the
prior year quarter. The benefit in 1996 includes tax credits of $43.7 million
due to the recognition of net operating loss carryforwards and the settlement
during the quarter of various issues with the Internal Revenue Service. See Note
9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information
on the tax benefits recognized in the third quarter of 1996.
Net income
Net income from continuing operations in the third quarter of 1996
increased 20% to $82.6 million, or 71 cents per share, compared with $68.8
million, or 60 cents per share, in the same quarter of the prior year.

Revenues
Consolidated revenues increased 26% to $5,251.5 million in the first nine
months of 1996 compared with $4,161.3 million in the same period of the prior
year. Approximately 54% of the Company's consolidated revenues were derived from
international activities in the first nine months of 1996 compared to 51% in the
same period of 1995. Consolidated international revenues increased 34% in the
first nine months of 1996 over the same period of 1995. Consolidated United
States revenues increased by 18% in the first nine months of 1996 compared to
the same period of 1995.
Energy Services revenues increased by 15% compared with a 6% increase in
drilling activity as measured by the worldwide rotary rig count for the first
nine months of 1996 over the same period of the prior year. International
revenues increased by 12%, reflecting growth in the Europe/Africa and Latin
America markets. United States revenues increased 19% while the United States
rig count increased 6% over the same period of the prior year.
Engineering and Construction Services revenues increased 35% to $3,087.7
million compared with $2,279.7 million in the same nine month period of the
prior year due primarily to higher activity levels in the pulp and paper, energy
and chemicals industries as well as a service contract with the US Department of
Defense to provide technical and logistical support for military peacekeeping
operations in Bosnia.
Operating income
Consolidated operating income decreased 5% to $255.7 million in the first
nine months of 1996 compared with $269.8 million in the same period of the prior
year. The current year operating income includes special charges of $65.3
million for the reorganization of Engineering and Construction Services,
reorganization of various company-wide administrative support functions, and
other business structure costs. See Note 9 to the condensed consolidated
financial statements for additional information about these charges. Excluding
the special charges noted above, operating income for the nine months was $321.0
million, or 19% higher than the prior year period. Excluding the special
charges, approximately 71% of the Company's consolidated operating income was
derived from international activities in the first nine months of 1996 compared
to 67% in the same period of 1995.
Energy Services operating income increased 24% to $261.2 million in the
first nine months of 1996 compared with $211.5 million in the same period of the
prior year. The operating margin for the first nine months of 1996 was 12.1%
compared to the prior year operating margin of 11.2%. The increase in operating
income in 1996 is primarily related to higher activity levels in North America
from deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico; Europe/Africa, primarily related
to the North Sea; and Latin America, from activities in Mexico.
Engineering and Construction Services operating income for the first nine
months of 1996 was $86.2 million compared to 1995 operating income of $80.2
million. Operating margins were 2.8% in for the first nine months of 1996 and
3.5% for the same period in 1995. Results for the nine months include fees for
the service contract to provide technical and logistical support for military
peacekeeping operations in Bosnia as well as $35.0 million of income relating to
gain sharing revenue on the Brown & Root portion of the cost savings realized on
the BP Andrew alliance. The alliance completed the project seven months ahead of
the scheduled production of oil and achieved a $125 million savings compared
with the targeted cost. This was offset by a $17.1 million reduction in income
due to lower activity levels and revenues generated by European Marine
Contractors, Limited, and a $17.1 million charge relating to the impairment of
Brown & Root's equity in the Dulles Greenway toll road extension project.
11
Nonoperating items
Interest expense decreased to $17.5 million in the first nine months of
1996 compared to $40.1 million in the same period of the prior year due
primarily to the redemption of the zero coupon convertible subordinated
debentures in September 1995, and the redemption of the $42.0 million term loan
in December 1995.
Interest income decreased in 1996 primarily due to lower levels of
invested cash due mainly to the redemption of long-term debt.
Foreign currency losses were $2.5 million for the first nine months of
1996 as compared to a gain of $0.6 million for the same period in 1995. The
prior year period benefited from a gain in the first quarter of 1995 in Nigeria
from the devaluation of the naira which was offset by losses primarily related
to the Mexican peso. The current year losses are primarily attributable to the
devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar.
The provision for income taxes in the first nine months is $43.8 million
as compared to a provision of $92.1 million in the prior year period. The
provision in 1996 is net of tax credits of $43.7 million due to the recognition
of net operating loss carryforwards and the settlement during the third quarter
of various issues with the Internal Revenue Service. See Note 9 to the condensed
consolidated financial statements for additional information on the tax benefits
recognized in 1996.
Net income
Net income from continuing operations in the first nine months of 1996
increased 24% to $201.2 million, or $1.74 per share, compared with $161.9
million, or $1.41 per share, in the same period of the prior year.
Realignment of product and service lines
The Company has announced plans to realign certain of its product and
service lines to exploit opportunities with its energy based customers.
Beginning in the 1996 fourth quarter, the Energy Services business segment will
include Halliburton Energy Services; Brown & Root Energy Services, which
includes the upstream oil and gas engineering and construction activities;
Landmark Graphics Corporation, which includes integrated exploration and
production information systems and professional services; and Halliburton Energy
Development, which has been formed to create business opportunities for the
development, production and operation of customers' oil and gas fields.
In addition, the Company has announced a restructuring of the remaining
services of the Engineering and Construction Services segment into two service
lines to more closely align with its customers. One service line will focus on
delivering engineering and construction services to commercial customers and the
other will focus on servicing government and municipal customers. The cost of
implementing this program is reflected in the 1996 third quarter $65.3 million
pre-tax charge.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company ended the third quarter of 1996 with cash and equivalents of
$35.1 million, a decrease of $139.8 million from the end of 1995.
Operating activities
Cash flows from operating activities were $149.0 million in the first nine
months of 1996, as compared to $353.0 million in the first nine months of 1995.
The major operating activity use of cash in 1996 was to fund working capital
requirements related to increased revenues from Energy Services and Engineering
and Construction Services.
Investing activities
Cash flows used in investing activities were $264.1 million and $158.1
million in the first nine months of 1996 and 1995, respectively. Included in
1996 investing activities is $41.3 million related to the Company's share of the
purchase price of a subsidiary acquired by the Company's M-I Drilling affiliate.
Capital expenditures made by Energy Services for fixed assets were $44.9 million
higher in the first nine months of 1996 compared to the prior year period.
12

nine months of 1996 compared to $498.1 million in the first nine months of 1995.
The Company borrowed $51.5 million in short-term bank borrowings in the first
nine months of 1996 to fund cash requirements. Proceeds from exercises of stock
options provided $14.4 million in the first nine months of 1996 compared to $1.8
million in the same period of the prior year. The Company redeemed the entire
outstanding principal amount of zero coupon convertible subordinated debentures
during the third quarter of 1995 of $390.7 million.
The Company has the ability to borrow additional short-term and long-term
funds if necessary.
LANDMARK GRAPHICS ACQUISITION
On October 4, 1996, the Company completed its acquisition of Landmark
Graphics Corporation in a stock transaction. See Note 7 to the condensed
consolidated financial statements for additional information.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company completed its exit from the insurance industry segment on
January 23, 1996, with distribution of the Company's property and casualty
insurance subsidiary, Highlands Insurance Group, Inc., to its shareholders in a
tax-free spin-off. The operations of the Insurance Services Group have been
classified as discontinued operations. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated
financial statements for additional information.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The Company is involved as a potentially responsible party in remedial
activities to clean up various "Superfund" sites under applicable Federal law
which imposes joint and several liability, if the harm is indivisible, on
certain persons without regard to fault, the legality of the original disposal,
or ownership of the site. Although it is very difficult to quantify the
potential impact of compliance with environmental protection laws, management of
the Company believes that any liability of the Company with respect to all but
one of such sites will not have a material adverse effect on the results of
operations of the Company. See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial
statements for additional information on the one site.

thereof, and shall be signed by the Chairman of the Board (if any), the
President or any Vice President and the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the
Corporation and countersigned by an independent transfer agent and registered by
an independent registrar. Any or all of the signatures may be facsimiles unless
the regulations of the New York Stock Exchange then in effect shall require to
the contrary. In case any officer,
9
transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been
placed upon a certificate shall cease 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 were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at
the date of issue.
Transfer of Stock
29. Transfer of stock shall be made on the books of the Corporation only
upon written order of the person named in the certificate or his attorney,
lawfully constituted in writing and upon surrender of such certificate.
30. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled
to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment
thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting,
or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or
allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any
change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful
action, the Board may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more
than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor
more than sixty (60) days prior to any other action. 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; provided, however,
that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.
31. All checks, unless otherwise directed by the Board, shall be signed by
the Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer and countersigned by the Chairman of the
Board (if any), President, any Vice President or the Controller. The Treasurer
or Assistant Treasurer, Chairman of the Board (if any), President, any Vice
President, the Controller, or any one of them, may
10
appoint such officers or employees of the Corporation as the one or ones so
making the appointment shall deem advisable to audit and approve Corporation
vouchers and checks and to sign such checks with an approved mechanical
check-signer. Any officer or employee so designated to audit, approve or sign
checks shall execute a bond to the Corporation in such amount as the Directors,
from time to time, may designate, and with sureties satisfactory to the
Directors. All notes, debentures and bonds, unless otherwise directed by the
Board, or unless otherwise required by law, shall be signed by the Treasurer or
Assistant Treasurer and countersigned by the Chairman of the Board (if any),
President or any Vice President.
Dividends
32. Dividends upon the capital stock, when earned, may be declared by the
Board at any regular or special meeting.
33. Before payment of any dividend, there shall be set aside out of the
surplus or net profits of the Corporation such sum or sums as the Directors,
from time to time, think proper as a reserve fund to meet contingencies, or for
such other purposes as the Directors shall think conducive to the interest of
the Corporation.
34. Whenever, under the provisions of these By-laws, notice is required to
be given it shall not be construed to mean personal notice, but such notice may
be given in writing by mail, addressed to such stockholder, officer or Director,
at such address as appears on the records of the Corporation, with postage
thereon prepaid, and such notice shall be deemed to be given at the time when
the same shall be deposited in the United States mail. Notice may also be given
by prepaid telegram, telex or facsimile transmission, which notice shall be
deemed to have been given when sent or transmitted.
11
35. Any stockholder, Director or officer may waive any notice required to
be given under these By-laws.
36. These By-laws may be altered or repealed at any regular meeting of the
stockholders, or at any special meeting of the stockholders at which a quorum is
present or represented, provided notice of the proposed alteration or repeal be
contained in the notice of such special meeting, by the affirmative vote of the
majority of the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting and present or
represented thereat, or by the affirmative vote of the majority of the Board of
Directors at any regular meeting of the Board, or at any special meeting of the
Board, if notice of the proposed alteration or repeal be contained in the notice
of such special meeting; provided, however, that no change in these By-laws
setting the time or place of the meeting for the election of Directors shall be
made within sixty (60) days next before the day on which such meeting is to be
held, and that in case of any change in such time or place, notice thereof shall
be given to each stockholder in person or by letter mailed to his last known
post office address at least twenty (20) days before the meeting is held.
Provisions for National Emergencies
37. During periods of emergency resulting from an attack on the United
States or on a locality in which the Corporation conducts its business or
customarily holds meetings of its Board of Directors or its stockholders, or
during any nuclear or atomic disaster, or during the existence of any
catastrophe, or other similar emergency condition, the following provisions
shall apply notwithstanding any different provisions elsewhere contained in
these By-laws:
(a) Whenever, during such emergency and as a result thereof, a quorum
of the Board of Directors or a standing committee thereof cannot readily be
convened for action, a
12
meeting of such Board or committee thereof may be called by any officer or
Director by a notice of the time and place given only to such of the Directors
as it may be feasible to reach at the time and by such means as may be feasible
at the time, including publications or radio. The Director or Directors in
attendance at the meeting shall constitute a quorum; provided, however, that the
officers or other persons present who have been designated on a list approved by
the Board before the emergency, all in such order of priority and subject to
such conditions and for such period of time as may be provided in the resolution
approving such list, or in the absence of such a resolution, the officers of the
Corporation who are present, in order of rank, and within the same rank in order
of seniority, shall to the extent required to provide a quorum be deemed
Directors for such meeting.
(b) The Board, either before or during any such emergency, may
provide, and from time to time modify, lines of succession in the event that
during such emergency any or all officers or agents of the Corporation shall for
any reason be rendered incapable of discharging their duties.
(c) The Board either before or during any such emergency, may,
effective in the emergency, change the head office or designate several
alternative head offices or regional offices, or authorize the officers so to
do.
(d) No officer, Director or employee acting in accordance with this
article shall be liable except for willful misconduct.
(e) To the extent not inconsistent with this article, all other
articles of these Bylaws shall remain in effect during any emergency described
in this article and upon its termination the provisions of this article covering
the duration of such emergency shall cease to be operative.
13
Divisions and Divisional Officers
Groups and Group Officers
38. (a) Divisions of the Corporation may be formed, and existing divisions
dissolved, by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation or through
designation in writing by the President.
The President of the Corporation, or his delegate, shall supervise the
management and operations of its divisions and shall have the authority to
appoint the officers thereof and the power to remove them and to fill any
vacancies.
To the extent not inconsistent with these By-laws or a resolution of
the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the officers of each division shall
perform such duties and have such authority with respect to the business and
affairs of that division as may be granted, from time to time, by the President
of the Corporation, or his delegate. With respect to the affairs of such
division and in the regular course of business of such division, officers of
each division may sign contracts and other documents in the name of the
division, where so authorized; provided, however, subject to the provisions of
the next succeeding sentence of this Paragraph, that an officer of one division
shall not have authority to bind any other division of the Corporation, nor to
bind the Corporation, except as to the normal and usual business and affairs of
the division of which he is an officer. Notwithstanding the provisions of the
preceding sentence, if a division of the Corporation is formed to provide shared
services for the Corporation and/or its operating units, officers, to the extent
that and with respect to matters to which they have been delegated such
authority in writing by the President or his delegate, may execute contracts in
the name of and bind the Corporation or any of its divisions; provided, however,
that no officer of a division
14
formed to perform shared services shall contract in the name of or otherwise
bind a subsidiary or other legal entity in which the Corporation owns an
interest with respect to shared services matters unless such officer of such
division taking such action (i) is an officer of such subsidiary or such other
legal entity and is duly authorized to take such action in the name of and on
behalf of such subsidiary or other legal entity or (ii) takes such action on
behalf of such subsidiary or other legal entity pursuant to the grant of a duly
authorized power of attorney. A divisional officer, unless specifically elected
to one of the designated offices of the Corporation, shall not be construed as
an officer of the Corporation.
(b) To facilitate the attainment of certain goals and objectives by
various divisions and subsidiaries of the Corporation engaged in common pursuits
or in activities within the same or similar areas of business activity, a group
or groups of such subsidiaries and divisions may be formed by resolution of the
Board of Directors of the Corporation or through designation in writing by the
President of the Corporation, or his delegate.
The activities of any such group shall be administered and coordinated
by the officers of the group and, if desired by the President of the
Corporation, or his delegate, by an operating committee. In such event, the
number of members of such operating committee shall be determined by the
President of the Corporation, or his delegate, who shall appoint the members
thereof and have the power to remove them and substitute other members. The
duties of any such operating committee shall be to aid in the administration and
coordination of group activities and to consult with and advise the officers of
the group in achieving goals and objectives of such group.
15
Officers of a group established pursuant to the provisions hereof may
include a chairman, a president, one or more vice presidents, a treasurer, a
secretary and such other officers as may facilitate operations of the group. The
President, or his delegate, shall have the authority to appoint the officers of
a group and the power to remove them and to fill any vacancies. To the extent
not inconsistent with these By-laws or a resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Corporation, the officers of each group shall have such duties and authority
with respect to the activities and affairs of the group as may be granted, from
time to time, by the President of the Corporation, or his delegate.
Contracts may not be entered into in the name of any group, but any
officer of the group, where so authorized, may execute contracts and other
documents in the name of the Corporation on behalf of the members of the group
or any division of the Corporation that is a member of the group; provided,
however, that in no case shall an officer of the group have authority to bind
the Corporation except as to the normal and usual business and affairs of the
group of which he or she is an officer; and provided further that a group
officer may not execute contracts for any subsidiary who is a member of the
group unless (i) he or she executes the same under a duly authorized power of
attorney or (ii) he or she is also an officer of such subsidiary and executes
the contract in such capacity.
Indemnification
39. (a) Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made
a party to or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by
reason of the fact that he or she is or was or has agreed to become a director
or officer of the Corporation or is or was serving or has agreed to
16
serve at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another
corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of
such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or
officer or in any other capacity while serving or having agreed to serve as a
director or officer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to
the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the
same exists or may hereafter be amended, (but, in the case of any such
amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to
provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation
to provide prior to such amendment) against all expense, liability and loss
(including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties
and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by
such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as
to a person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially entitled
such person to indemnity hereunder and shall inure to the benefit of his or her
heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that the Corporation
shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a
proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding
(or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 39 shall be a contract
right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition;
provided, however, that, if the Delaware General Corporation Law requires, the
payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her
capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which
service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer,
including, without limitation, service
17
to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a
proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an
undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts
so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer
is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise.
(b) If a claim under Paragraph (a) of this Section 39 is not paid in
full by the Corporation within ninety days after a written claim has been
received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit
against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if
successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also
the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action
(other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in
defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required
undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the
claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under
the Delaware General Corporation Law for the Corporation to indemnify the
claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be
on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board
of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a
determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of
the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation
Law, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of
Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the claimant has
not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or
create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of
conduct.
18
(c) The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of
expenses conferred in this Section 39 shall not be exclusive of any other right
which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or
statutory), provision of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation,
By-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
(d) The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect
itself and any person who is or was serving as 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 against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the
Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense,
liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law.
(e) If this Section 39 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on
any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall
nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each director or officer of the
Corporation as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the
full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 39 that shall
not have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law.
