---------------------------------
2.  ~(P . Q) v (R v S)                   1    Material Implication
3.  (~P v ~Q) v (R v S)                  2    De Morgan's Law
4.  ~P v (~Q v R) v S                    3    Association
5.  ~P v (R v ~Q) v S                    4    Commutation
6.  (~P v R) v (~Q v S)                  5    Association
7.  (P -> R) v (Q -> S)                  6    Material Implication
