 forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Although we believe these provisions benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of applicable law in the types of lawsuits to which they apply, the provisions may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers. The enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings and there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provisions. In addition, investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. It is possible that, in connection with any applicable action brought against us, a court could find the choice of forum provisions contained in the Certificate of Incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in such action. We may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the forum provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation. Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers The Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for the following:

| • |     | any breach of their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders; |

| • |     | acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; |

273

| • |     | unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions in violation of the DGCL; |

| • |     | any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit; or |

| • |     | with respect to any officer, any action by or in the right of the corporation. |

The Certificate of Incorporation also provides that if the DGCL is amended to permit further elimination or limitation of the personal liability of directors, then the liability of our directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. The Bylaws provide that we shall indemnify any Covered Person and who is or was a party to, is threatened to be made a party to, or is otherwise involved (including as a witness)
