ARTICLE II 
STOCKHOLDERS 
 
Section 1. Stockholders’ Meetings. 
 
(a) Time and Place of Meetings. Meetings of the stockholders shall be held at such times and places,
either within or outside the State of Delaware, as may from time to time be fixed by the Board of Directors and stated in the notices or waivers of notice of such meetings. 
 
(b) Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of the stockholders shall be held on such date and at such time
as may be designated by the Board of Directors, for the election of directors and the transaction of such other business properly brought before such annual meeting of the stockholders in accordance with these Bylaws (as they may be amended from
time to time, these “Bylaws”) and within the powers of the stockholders. 
 
(c) Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation for any purpose or purposes may be called only (i) by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a
majority of the total number of authorized directors constituting the whole Board of Directors or (ii) at the request in writing of stockholders owning not less than 10% of the voting power of the Corporation. Such resolution or request in writing
shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting. Business transacted at any special meeting of the stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice of such meeting. 
 
(d) Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise provided by
law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Certificate of 






 
Incorporation”) or these
Bylaws, written notice of each meeting of the stockholders shall be given not less than ten (10) days nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of such meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat, directed to such stockholder’s
address as it appears upon the books of the Corporation, such notice to specify the place, date, hour and purpose or purposes of such meeting. When a meeting of the stockholders is adjourned to another time and/or place, notice need not be given of
such adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting of the stockholders at which the adjournment is taken, unless the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days or unless after the adjournment a new record date is
fixed for such adjourned meeting, in which event a notice of such adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote thereat. Notice of the time, place and purpose of any meeting of the stockholders may be waived in
writing either before or after such meeting and will be waived by any stockholder by such stockholder’s attendance thereat in person or by proxy. Any stockholder so waiving notice of such a meeting shall be bound by the proceedings of any such
meeting in all respects as if due notice thereof had been given. 
 
(e) Quorum. Except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the holders of not less than a majority of the shares entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, present in person or
by proxy, shall constitute a quorum. If a quorum is present at any meeting, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at such meeting on the subject matter and present thereat in person or by proxy shall be
deemed the act of the stockholders. If a quorum shall fail to attend any meeting of the stockholders, the presiding officer of such meeting may adjourn such meeting from time to time to another place, date or time, without notice other than
announcement at such meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting of the stockholders as
originally noticed. The foregoing notwithstanding, if a notice of any adjourned special meeting of the stockholders is sent to all stockholders entitled to vote thereat which states that such adjourned special meeting will be held with those present
in person or by proxy constituting a quorum, then, except as otherwise required by law, those present at such adjourned special meeting of the stockholders shall constitute a quorum and all matters shall be determined by a majority of the votes cast
at such special meeting. 
 
Section 2. Determination of
Stockholders Entitled to Notice and to Vote. 
 
To determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of the stockholders or to vote thereat, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a record date as provided in Article VII, Section 1 of these Bylaws, or if no record
date is fixed by the Board of Directors, a record date shall be determined as provided by law. 
 
Section 3. Voting. 
 
(a) Except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, each stockholder present in person or by proxy at a meeting of the stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each full share of
stock registered in the name of such stockholder at the time fixed by the Board of Directors or by law as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting. 
 

2 







 
(b) Every
stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of the stockholders may do so either in person or by one or more agents authorized by a written proxy executed by the person or such stockholder’s duly authorized agent whether by manual signature,
typewriting, telegraphic transmission, facsimile signature or otherwise. 
 
(c) Voting may be by voice or by ballot as the presiding officer of the meeting of the stockholders shall determine. On a vote by ballot, each ballot shall be signed by the stockholder voting, or by such stockholder’s
proxy, and shall state the number of shares voted. 
 
(d) In advance of any meeting of the stockholders, the Board of Directors shall appoint one or more persons as inspectors of election (“Inspectors”) to act at such meeting and make a written report thereof. If Inspectors
are not so appointed, or if an appointed Inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act at a meeting of the stockholders, the presiding officer of any such meeting may, and on the request of any stockholder or such stockholder’s proxy
shall, appoint Inspectors at such meeting. Each Inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of Inspector, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of Inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of
such Inspector’s ability. Such Inspectors shall take charge of the ballots at such meeting. Also, such Inspectors shall (A) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each; (B) determine the shares represented at such
meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots; (C) count all votes and ballots; (D) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the Inspectors; and (E) certify their
determination of the number of shares represented at such meeting, and their count of all votes and ballots. The Inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist the Inspectors in the performance of the duties of the Inspectors.
An Inspector need not be a stockholder of the Corporation and any officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation may be an Inspector on any question other than a vote for or against such person’s election to any position with the Corporation or
on any other questions in which such officer, employee, or agent may be directly interested. If there are three Inspectors, the determination, report or certificate of two such Inspectors shall be effective as if unanimously made by all Inspectors.

 
(e) The date and time of the opening and the
closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be announced at the meeting. No ballot, proxies or votes, nor any revocation thereof or changes thereto, shall be accepted by the
Inspectors after the closing of the polls unless the Delaware Court of Chancery upon application by a stockholder shall determine otherwise. 
 
Section 4. List of Stockholders. 
 
The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make available, at least ten (10) days before every
meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of and the number of shares registered in the name of each such stockholder. Such list shall be open to the
examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to such meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to such meeting, at the principal place of business of the corporation. The list also shall be
produced and kept throughout the time and 
 

3 







 
at the place of the meeting of
the stockholders and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. 
 
Section 5. Action by Consent of Stockholders. 
 
(a) Except as otherwise restricted by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, upon the setting of a record date in accordance with Section 5(b), any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting
of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice to the stockholders and without a vote, if a consent in writing setting forth the action so taken shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the
minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Prompt notice of any corporate action taken without a meeting by less than unanimous
written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing. 
 
(b) In order for the Corporation to determine the stockholders entitled to consent to any corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date
shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which date shall not be more than ten (10) days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the
Board of Directors. Any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent shall, by written notice to the Secretary, request the Board of Directors to fix a record date. The Board of
Directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten (10) days after the date on which such a request is received, adopt a resolution fixing the record date. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors within ten (10) days of the
date on which such a request is received, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be the
first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or any officer or
agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of stockholders meetings are recorded, to the attention of the Secretary of the Corporation. Delivery shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a
meeting shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action. 
 
Section 6. Advance Notice of Stockholder Nominees and Stockholder Business. 
 
(a) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been
properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be: (i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (ii) otherwise
properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (iii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder. In addition to any other applicable requirements (including, without 
 

4 







limitation, that any business brought before a meeting must be a proper matter for stockholder action),
for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation, the stockholder must have been a holder of record of the Corporation
at the time such notice is delivered, and the stockholder, or his or her representative who is qualified under law to present the business on his or her behalf, must attend the meeting to present the business. To be timely, a stockholder’s
notice must be delivered to or mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation no later than the close of business on the forty-fifth (45th) day and no earlier than the close of business on the
seventy-fifth (75th) day prior to the first anniversary of the date on which the Corporation first mailed its proxy materials for the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting
was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date contemplated at the time of the previous year’s proxy statement, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so
received no earlier than the close of business on the one hundred fifth (105th) day prior to the date of the annual meeting and no later than the close of business on the later of (A) the seventy-fifth (75th) day prior to such annual meeting date
or, (B) in the event public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is first made by the Corporation fewer than eighty-five (85) days prior to the date of such annual meeting, the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day
on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation. A stockholder’s notice shall be made to the Secretary and shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting:
(1) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (2) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of the stockholder
proposing such business, (3) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder, (4) any material interest of the stockholder in such business, and (5) any other information that is required to be
provided by the stockholder pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), in his or her capacity as a proponent of a stockholder proposal. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the
contrary, no business shall be conducted at any annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph (a). The presiding officer of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the meeting
that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (a), and, if he or she should so determine, such presiding officer shall so declare at the meeting that any such business not properly
brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. 
 
(b) In addition to any other applicable requirements, only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph (b) shall be eligible for election as directors. Nominations of persons for election
to the Board of Directors of the Corporation may be made at a meeting of stockholders by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or by any stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote in the election of directors at the meeting who complies
with the notice procedures set forth in this paragraph (b). Such nominations, other than those made by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, shall be made only after timely notice (as set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 6) in writing
to the Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section 6. Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth: (i) as to each person, if any, whom the stockholder intends to nominate for election or re-

 

5

principal occupation or employment of such person, (C) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by such person, (D) a description of all relationships, arrangements, and understandings between the stockholder
and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nominations are to be made by the stockholder, and (E) any other information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in
solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the 1934 Act (including without limitation such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement, if any,
as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); and (ii) as to such stockholder giving notice, the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 6 of this Article II. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of
Directors shall not be required to solicit proxies for the election of any person the stockholder intends to nominate at the meeting. At the request of the Board of Directors, any person nominated by a stockholder for election as a director shall
furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation that information required to be set forth in the stockholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless
nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph (b). The presiding officer of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures
provided by this paragraph (b), and if he or she should so determine, such presiding officer shall so declare at the meeting, and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. 
 
(c) For purposes of this Section 6 of this Article II, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure
in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the
1934 Act.

respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its
equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, that the person had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. 
 
(b) Actions or Suits by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by the
laws of the State of Delaware any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact
that he or she is or was or has agreed to become a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving or has agreed to serve at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another affiliated corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, service with respect to employee benefit plans), against all costs, charges, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, amounts paid in settlement and excise taxes or
penalties assessed with respect to any employee benefit or welfare plan reasonably incurred or suffered by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with such action or suit and any appeal therefrom, if he or she acted in good faith and in a
manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made under this Section 1(b) in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have
been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was 
 


12 







brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of
all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such costs, charges and expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. 
 
(c) Indemnification for Costs, Charges and Expenses of
Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article V, to the extent that a director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in
Sections 1(a) or 1(b) of this Article V or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against all costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on
his or her behalf in connection therewith. 
 
(d)
Determination of Right to Indemnification. Any indemnification under Sections 1(a) or 1(b) of this Article V (unless ordered by a court) shall be paid by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that
indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the indemnified person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 1(a) and 1(b) of this Article V. Such determination shall be made (1) by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel
(who may be the regular counsel of the Corporation) in a written opinion, or (3) by the stockholders. 
 
(e) Advancement of Costs, Charges and Expenses. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer
referred to in Sections 1(a) or 1(b) of this Article V in defending a civil or criminal action, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation, in advance of a determination of right to indemnification
pursuant to Section 1(d) of this Article V or the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, upon the written request of such director or officer; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses in advance of the determination of
right to indemnification or the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such
director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Section 1 of Article V; and provided further that the payment of such expenses shall not be made if a court of competent jurisdiction enters a final
nonappealable judgement that such payment would violate Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Board of Directors may, in such case, authorize the Corporation’s counsel to represent such person, in any action, suit or proceeding,
whether or not the Corporation is a party to such action, suit or proceeding. Such costs, charges and expenses incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Board of Directors deems appropriate.

 
(f) Procedure for Indemnification. Any
indemnification under Sections 1(a), 1(b) or 1(c) of this Article V or advance of expenses under Section 1(e) of this Article V shall be made promptly, and in any event within sixty (60) days, upon the written request of the indemnified person. The
right to indemnification or advances as granted by this Section 1 of this Article V shall be enforceable by the indemnified person in any court of competent jurisdiction, if the 
 

13 







Corporation denies such request, in whole or in part, or if no disposition thereof is made within such
sixty (60) day period. Such person’s costs and expenses actually and reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing his or her right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be indemnified by the
Corporation. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of costs, charges and expenses under Section 1 of this Article V where the required undertaking, if any, has been received by the
Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 1(a) or 1(b) of this Article V, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board
of Directors, its independent legal counsel, and its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable
standard of conduct set forth in Sections 1(a) or 1(b) of this Article V nor the fact that there has been an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, its independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the
claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 
 
(g) Other Rights; Continuation of Right to Indemnification. The indemnification and advancement of
costs, charges and expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 1 of this Article V shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of costs, charges and expenses may be
entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office as set forth in
Sections 1(a) and 1(b) of this Article V or otherwise, and, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, shall continue as to a person who has ceased to hold such office and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and
administrators of such person. All rights to indemnification under this Section 1 of this Article V shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director and officer of the Corporation who serves or served in such capacity at
any time while this Section 1 of this Article V is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Section 1 of this Article V or any repeal or modification of Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or any other law affecting the rights
of directors and officers of the Corporation to indemnification shall not adversely affect any rights of any such director or officer to indemnification or the obligations of the Corporation pursuant to this Section 1, Article V, with respect to any
act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification. 
 
(h) Indemnification of Employees and Other Agents. The Board of Directors in its discretion shall have power on behalf of the Corporation, subject to applicable law, to indemnify any person made
a party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person, or his or her testator or intestate, is or was an employee or other agent of the Corporation and to advance costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’
fees) incurred by such person in defending any such action, suit or proceeding.

Section 2. Insurance, Trust
Fund, Etc. 
 
The Corporation may purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was or has agreed to become a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person, or arising out of such person’s capacity as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the
power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. The Corporation may create a trust fund, grant a security interest and/or use other means (including, without
limitation, letters of credit, surety bonds and/or other similar arrangements), as well as enter into contracts providing indemnification to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws and
including as a part thereof provisions with respect to any or all of the foregoing to ensure the payment of such amounts as may become necessary to effect indemnification as provided in these Bylaws or elsewhere. 
 
Section 3. Limitations. 
 
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article V to the
contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification provided by these Bylaws, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any person or advance any expenses in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by
such person or service by such person as a witness adverse to the Corporation, unless such proceeding (or part thereof) or such service was authorized by resolution of the Board of Directors. 
 
Section 4. Savings Clause. 
 
If this Article V or any portion hereof shall be invalidated
on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer of the Corporation as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this
Article V that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted by applicable law. 
 
ARTICLE VI 
CERTIFICATES FOR SHARES AND THEIR TRANSFER

 
Section 1. Certificates for Shares. 
 
Unless otherwise provided by a resolution of the Board of
Directors, the shares of the Corporation shall be represented by a certificate. The certificates of stock of the Corporation shall be numbered and shall be entered in the books of the Corporation as they are issued. They shall exhibit the
holder’s name and number of shares and shall be signed by or in the name of the Corporation by (a) the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or any Vice President and (b) the Treasurer, any Assistant
Treasurer, the Secretary or 
 

15 







any Assistant Secretary. Any or all of the signatures on a certificate may be by facsimile. In case any
officer of the Corporation, transfer agent or registrar who has signed, or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon such certificate, shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, such
certificate may nevertheless be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issuance. 
 
Section 2. Transfer. 
 
Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of the Corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by
proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books.

 
Section 3. Record Owner. 
 
The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of
record of any share or shares of stock as the holder in fact thereof, and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express
or other notice thereof, save as expressly provided by the laws of the State of Delaware or federal laws. 
 
Section 4. Lost Certificates. 
 
The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate of stock to be lost, stolen or destroyed. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion
and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as the Board of Directors shall require and to
give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. 
 
ARTICLE VII 
MISCELLANEOUS 
 
Section 1. Record Date. 
 
(a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of the stockholders or
any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other
lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days prior to the date of such meeting nor more than 
 

16 







sixty (60) days prior to any other action. If not fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date shall
be determined as provided by the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 
(b) A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall apply to any adjournments of the meeting, unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned
meeting. 
 
(c) Holders of stock on the record date
are entitled to notice and to vote or to receive the dividend, distribution or allotment of rights or to exercise the rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the Corporation after the record date,
except as otherwise provided by agreement or by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. 
 
Section 2. Execution of Instruments. 
 
The Board of Directors may, in its discretion, determine the method and designate the signatory officer or officers, or other persons, to execute any corporate instrument or document or to sign the
corporate name without limitation, except where otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. Such designation may be general or confined to specific instances. 
 
Section 3. Voting of Securities Owned by the Corporation. 
 
All stock and other securities of other corporations held by
the Corporation shall be voted, and all proxies with respect thereto shall be executed, by the person so authorized by resolution of the Board of Directors, or, in the absence of such authorization, by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive
Officer, the President, the Chief Financial Officer, or the Secretary. 
 
Section 4. Amendments. 
 
In
furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, make, repeal, alter, amend and rescind from time to time any or all of the Bylaws of the Corporation, including, without
limitation, Bylaw amendments increasing or reducing the authorized number of directors constituting the whole Board of Directors. The affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding capital stock of the Corporation having
general voting power, voting together as a single class, shall be required for the Corporation’s stockholders to adopt, make, repeal, alter, amend or rescind the Bylaws of the Corporation (notwithstanding any other provision of the Certificate
of Incorporation or any provision of law which might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, but in addition and subject to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by law or by the Certificate of
Incorporation).
