•the ability of our board of directors to alter our amended and restated bylaws without obtaining stockholder approval;

•in addition to our board of directors’ ability to adopt, amend, or repeal our amended and restated bylaws, our stockholders may adopt, amend, or repeal our amended and restated bylaws only with the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of voting stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in an election of directors;

•the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by or at the direction of our board of directors, the chairperson of our board of directors, or our chief executive officer or president, thus prohibiting a stockholder from calling a special meeting;
