 Executive Officer or by our board of directors pursuant to a resolution approved by the board of directors. In addition, our by-lawsestablish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors. Our board of directors has the authority, without further action of our stockholders, to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, in one or more series and to fix the powers, preferences, rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The issuance of preferred stock on various terms could adversely affect the holders of common stock. The potential issuance of preferred stock may discourage bids for shares of our common stock at a premium over the market price of our common stock, may adversely affect the market price of shares of our common stock and may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of the Company. The anti-takeover and other provisions of our certificate of incorporation and by-lawscould discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change of control. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the board of directors and in the policies formulated by the board of directors and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal. The provisions also are intended to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, these provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. These provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management. Delaware General Corporation Law We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL (“Section 203”). In general, Section 203 prevents a person who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, an “interested stockholder”, from engaging in some business combinations, as described below, with us for three years following the time that that person becomes an interested stockholder unless one of the following occurs:

 interested stockholder before that person became an interested stockholder;                                      |

| • |     | upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, the                                 
 interested stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock
