 PROVISIONS FOR DEFINING, LIMITING AND REGULATING CERTAIN POWERS OF THE CORPORATION AND OF THE STOCKHOLDERS AND DIRECTORS



Section
4.1Number, Election, Vacancies and Classification of Directors.  The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be
managed under the direction of the Board of Directors. The number of directors of the Corporation is four (4), which number may be increased
or decreased only by the Board of Directors pursuant to the Bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”), but shall never be
less than the minimum number required by the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”).  A director shall have the
qualifications, if any, as specified in the Bylaws.  The names of the directors who shall serve until their successors are
duly elected and qualify are: Vivek Bunty Bohra, Michael W. Chorske, Scott Gordon, and Tracey Brophy Warson. Any vacancy on the Board
of Directors may be filled in the manner provided in the Bylaws.





1







The Corporation
elects, effective at such time as it becomes eligible under Section 3-802 of the MGCL to make the election provided for under Section 3-804(c) of
the MGCL, that, subject to applicable requirements of the 1940 Act and except as may be provided by the Board of Directors in setting
the terms of any class or series of Preferred Stock (as hereinafter defined), any and all vacancies on the Board of Directors may be
filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors in office, even if the remaining directors do not constitute
a quorum, and any director elected to fill a vacancy shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the directorship in which such
vacancy occurred and until a successor is duly elected and qualifies.



The directors (other
than any director elected solely by holders of one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock in connection with dividend arrearages)
shall be classified, with respect to the terms for which they severally hold office, into three classes, as nearly equal in number as
possible as determined by the Board of Directors, with one class to hold office initially for a term expiring at the first annual meeting
of stockholders, another class to hold office initially for a term expiring at the second annual meeting of stockholders and another
class to hold office initially for a term expiring at the third annual meeting of stockholders, and in each case, until their successors
are duly elected and qualify.  At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to the class of directors whose term expires
at such meeting shall be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders following
the meeting at which they were elected and until their successors are duly elected and qualify.



Section
4.2 Extraordinary Actions.  Except as specifically provided in Section 4.9 (relating to removal of directors),
and in Section 6.2 (relating to certain actions and certain amendments to the charter), notwithstanding any provision of law requiring
any action to be taken or approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of shares entitled to cast a greater number of votes, any such
action shall be effective and valid if declared advisable by the Board of Directors and taken or approved by the affirmative vote of
holders of shares entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter.



Section
4.3Election of Directors.  Except as otherwise provided in the Bylaws, directors shall be elected by the affirmative
vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock outstanding and entitled to vote thereon.



Section
4.4Quorum.  The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to cast
a majority of the votes entitled to be cast (without regard to class or series) shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders,
except with respect to any such matter that, under applicable statutes or regulatory requirements or the charter, requires approval by
a separate vote of one or more classes or series of stock, in which case the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares
entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by each such class or series on a matter shall constitute a quorum. To the
extent permitted by Maryland law as in effect from time to time, the foregoing quorum provision may be changed by the Bylaws.



Section
4.5Authorization by Board of Stock Issuance.  The Board of Directors may authorize the issuance from time to time of
shares of stock of the Corporation of any class or series, whether now or hereafter authorized, or securities or rights convertible into
shares of its stock of any class or series, whether now or hereafter authorized, for such consideration as the Board of Directors may
deem advisable (or without consideration in the case of a stock split or stock dividend), subject to such restrictions or limitations,
if any, as may be set forth in the charter or the Bylaws.



Section
4.6 Preemptive Rights.  Except as may be provided by the Board of Directors in setting the terms of classified or
reclassified shares of stock pursuant to Section 5.4 or as may otherwise be provided by a contract approved by the Board of Directors,
no holder of shares of stock of the Corporation shall, as such holder, have any preemptive right to purchase or subscribe for any additional
shares of stock of the Corporation or any other security of the Corporation which it may issue or sell.





2







Section
4.7 Appraisal Rights.  No holder of stock of the Corporation shall be entitled to exercise the rights of an objecting
stockholder under Title 3, Subtitle 2 of the MGCL or any successor provision thereto unless the Board of Directors, upon the affirmative
vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors and upon such terms and conditions as may be specified by the Board of Directors,
shall determine that such rights apply, with respect to all or any shares of all or any classes or series of stock, or any proportion
of the shares thereof, to a particular transaction or all transactions occurring after the date of such determination in connection with
which holders of such shares would otherwise be entitled to exercise such rights.



Section
4.8Determinations by Board. In addition to, and without limitation of the general power and authority of the Board of Directors
under Section 4.1, the determination as to any of the following matters, made by or pursuant to the direction of the Board of Directors,
shall be final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Corporation and every holder of shares of its stock: the amount of the net
income of the Corporation for any period and the amount of assets at any time legally available for the payment of dividends, acquisition
of its stock or the payment of other distributions on its stock; the amount of paid-in surplus, net assets, other surplus, cash flow,
funds from operations, adjusted funds from operations, net profit, net assets in excess of capital, undivided profits or excess of profits
over losses on sales of assets; the amount, purpose, time of creation, increase or decrease, alteration or cancellation of any reserves
or charges and the propriety thereof (whether or not any obligation or liability for which such reserves or charges shall have been created
shall have been set aside, paid or discharged); any interpretation or resolution of any ambiguity with respect to any provision of the
charter (including any of the terms, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers or rights, restrictions, limitations
as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption of any shares of any class or series of stock
of the Corporation) or of the Bylaws; the number of shares of stock of any class or series that the Corporation has authority to issue;
the fair value, or any sale, bid or asked price to be applied in determining the fair value, of any asset owned or held by the Corporation
or of any shares of stock of the Corporation; any matter relating to the acquisition, holding and disposition of any assets by the Corporation;
any interpretation of the terms and conditions of one or more agreements with any person, corporation, association, company, trust, partnership
(limited or general) or other entity; the compensation of directors, officers, employees or agents of the Corporation; or any other matter
relating to the business and affairs of the Corporation or required or permitted by applicable law, the charter or Bylaws or otherwise
to be determined by the Board of Directors.



Section
4.9Removal of Directors. Subject to the rights of holders of one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock to elect or
remove one or more directors, any director, or the entire Board of Directors, may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause
and then only by the affirmative vote of at least eighty percent (80%) of the votes entitled to be cast generally in the election of
directors.  For the purpose of this paragraph, “cause” shall mean, with respect to any particular director, conviction
of a felony or a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holding that such director caused demonstrable, material harm to
the Corporation through bad faith or active and deliberate dishonesty.



Section
4.10Corporate
Opportunities.  The Corporation shall have the power to renounce, by resolution of the Board of Directors, any interest or expectancy
of the Corporation in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business opportunities or classes or categories of business
opportunities that are (a) presented to the Corporation or (b) developed by or presented to one or more directors or officers
of the Corporation.

STOCK



Section
5.1 Authorized Shares.  The Corporation has authority to issue 100,000,000 shares of stock, initially consisting
of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”).  The aggregate par value of all authorized
shares of stock having par value is $1,000,000.  If shares of one class or series of stock are classified or reclassified into shares
of another class or series of stock pursuant to this Article V, the number of authorized shares of the former class or series shall
be automatically decreased and the number of shares of the latter class or series shall be automatically increased, in each case by the
number of shares so classified or reclassified, so that the aggregate number of shares of stock of all classes and series that the Corporation
has authority to issue shall not be more than the total number of shares of stock set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph. 
A majority of the entire Board of Directors, without any action by the stockholders of the Corporation, may amend the charter from time
to time to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series
that the Corporation has authority to issue.



Section
5.2Common Stock.  Each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote.  The Board of Directors
may classify and reclassify any unissued shares of Common Stock from time to time into one or more classes or series of stock.



Section
5.3Preferred Stock.  The Board of Directors may classify any unissued shares of stock and reclassify any previously classified
but unissued shares of stock of any class or series from time to time, into one or more classes or series of stock, including preferred
stock (“Preferred Stock”).



Section
5.4Classified or Reclassified Shares.  Prior to the issuance of classified or reclassified shares of any class or series,
the Board of Directors by resolution shall: (a) designate that class or series to distinguish it from all other classes and series
of stock of the Corporation; (b) specify the number of shares to be included in the class or series; (c) set or change, subject
to the express terms of any class or series of stock of the Corporation outstanding at the time, the preferences, conversion or other
rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of
redemption for each class or series; and (d) cause the Corporation to file articles supplementary with the State Department of Assessments
and Taxation of Maryland (the “SDAT”).  Any of the terms of any class or series of stock set or changed pursuant to
clause (c) of this Section 5.4 may be made dependent upon facts or events ascertainable outside the charter (including determinations
by the Board of Directors or other facts or events within the control of the Corporation) and may vary among holders thereof, provided
that the manner in which such facts, events or variations shall operate upon the terms of such class or series of stock is clearly and
expressly set forth in the articles supplementary or other charter document filed with the SDAT.



Section
5.5Inspection of Books and Records.  A stockholder that is otherwise eligible under applicable law to inspect the Corporation’s
books of account, stock ledger, or other specified documents of the Corporation shall have no right to make such inspection if the Board
of Directors determines that such stockholder has an improper purpose for requesting such inspection, and any such inspections shall
be subject to such reasonable regulations, not contrary to the MGCL, as the Board of Directors may from time to time adopt.



Section
5.6Charter and Bylaws.  All persons who shall acquire stock of the Corporation shall acquire the same, and the rights
of all stockholders and the terms of all stock are, subject to the provisions of the charter and the Bylaws.  The Board of Directors
shall have the exclusive power, at any time, to make, alter, amend or repeal the Bylaws.

Section
5.7Fractional Shares.  The Corporation may issue fractional shares. Any fractional share shall carry proportionately
the rights of a whole share including, without limitation, the right to vote and the right to receive dividends. However, if stock certificates
are issued, a fractional share shall not have the right to receive a certificate evidencing it.



ARTICLE
VI
AMENDMENTS; CERTAIN EXTRAORDINARY TRANSACTIONS



Section
6.1Amendments Generally.  The Corporation reserves the right from time to time to make any amendment to its charter,

(a)Required Votes.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled
to cast at least eighty percent (80%) of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, each voting as a separate class (and if no holders

directly or indirectly, other than solely by virtue of a revocable proxy, of one-tenth or more of the voting power in the election of
directors generally, or any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or employed by or acting as an agent of,
any such person or member of such group; and



(vi)The issuance or transfer by the Corporation (in one transaction or a series of transactions in any 12-month period) of any securities
of the Corporation to any other person in exchange for cash, securities or other property (or a combination thereof) having an aggregate
fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of $1,000,000 or more excluding (i) issuances or transfers of debt securities

to in (a)(iv), (a)(v) or (a)(vi) above, if such transaction is approved by the Continuing Directors, by a vote of at least two-thirds
of such Continuing Directors, no stockholder approval of such proposal, transaction or amendment shall be required unless the MGCL or

or election, as applicable, or (iii) any successor directors whose nomination for election by the stockholders or whose election
by the Board of Directors to fill vacancies is approved by a majority of the Continuing Directors or successor Continuing Directors,
who are on the Board at the time of the nomination or election, as applicable.
