(ii) Elections of directors need not be done by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the
Corporation shall otherwise provide.

B. The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, alter, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the
Corporation. In addition to the powers and authority hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the
Corporation, subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes, these Articles of Incorporation, and any Bylaws adopted by the stockholders; provided, however, that notwithstanding any provision in these Articles
of Incorporation to the contrary, the stockholders may not adopt, repeal or amend the Bylaws of the Corporation without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Corporations outstanding
shares of common stock; and provided further, however, that no Bylaws hereafter adopted by the stockholders shall invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have been valid if such Bylaws had not been adopted.

ARTICLE VI.

DIRECTOR AND OFFICER
LIABILITY

Except as otherwise provided in Nevada Revised Statutes Section 35.230, 90.660, 91.250, 452.200, 452.270, 668.045
and 694A.030, a director or officer is not individually liable to the Corporation, its stockholders or its creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that:
(a) his act or refusal to act constituted a breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer; and (b) his breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. In the event that Nevada law is
amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of liability of directors or officers, then this Article VI shall also be deemed amended to provide for the elimination or limitation of liability to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada
law, as so amended.

ARTICLE VII.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

A. IndemnificationGeneral. The Corporation shall indemnify,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any manner (including as witness) in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil or
criminal, administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal or external or internal to the Corporation (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of any other Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to any employee benefit plan, whether the
basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while holding the office of director or officer against expenses (including attorneys fees), judgments, fines, penalties and
amounts paid

in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he (i) is not liable pursuant to Nevada
Revised Statutes Section 78.138 and (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolocontendere 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 reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct
was unlawful. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in the following paragraph, the Corporation shall indemnify any such person in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part
thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

If a claim for indemnity under the preceding paragraph is not paid
in full by the Corporation within forty-five (45) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may, at any time thereafter, bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if
successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense of any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any
proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the Nevada Revised
Statutes for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or
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 has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Nevada Revised Statutes,
nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or 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.

B. Derivative Actions. The Corporation shall indemnify, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, 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 or the
fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses
(including attorneys fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he (i) is not liable pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes Section 78.138 and (ii) acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, provided that no indemnification shall be made 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 District Court of the State of Nevada or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability
but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the District Court or such other court shall deem proper.

C. Indemnification in Certain Cases. 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 A and B of this Article VII or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

D. Procedure. Any indemnification under
Sections A and B of this Article VII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he
has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such Sections A and B. Such determination may be made by any of the following: (i) 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 (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable if a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) the stockholders.

E. Advances for Expenses. Expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by a director or officer of the Corporation in defending any
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer
to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article VII.

F. Rights Not Exclusive. The right to indemnification provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VII (including the right to advancement of expenses) shall be a contract right of each director and
officer of the Corporation. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other Sections of this Article VII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law, Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

G. Insurance. The Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was 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 him and incurred by him in any capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article VII.

H. Construction. For the purposes of this Article VII, (i) references to the Corporation include all constituent corporations
absorbed in a consolidation or merger as well as the resulting or surviving corporation so that any person who is or was a director or officer, of such constituent corporation or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a
director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article VII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would if he had
served the resulting or surviving corporation in the

---

same capacity; (ii) references to other enterprises shall include employee benefits plans; (iii) references to fines shall
include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; (iv) references to serving at the request of the Corporation as an officer or director shall include any service in an official capacity as a
director or officer of the Corporation or in any other capacity while holding the office of director or officer of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan,
its participants or beneficiaries; and (v) a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner
not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.

I. Survival of Rights. The indemnification and advancement of
expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to this Article VII shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

ARTICLE VIII.
