(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On February 24, 2023, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company approved a resolution to amend and restate the Company's By-laws (the "By-laws"). The By-laws were last amended on August 24, 2022. The By-laws have been amended to update certain procedural requirements related to the notice of nominations for election to the Board.

Article III, Section 6 has been added to the By-laws to permit a shareholder, or a group of up to 20 shareholders, owning 3% or more of the Company's outstanding capital stock continuously for at least three years, to nominate and include in the Company's proxy materials director candidates constituting up to the greater of two or 20% of the Board, provided that the shareholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy additional eligibility, procedural and disclosure requirements specified in the By-laws.

In addition, the By-laws have been amended to provide, among other things, that (i) the advance notice of a shareholder must include a representation that the shareholder intends to solicit the holders of at least sixty-seven percent (67%) of the Company's outstanding capital stock entitled to vote on the election of directors, (ii) the advance notice of a shareholder must include a representation that the shareholder intends to solicit proxies or votes in accordance with Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), (iii) the advance notice of a shareholder must include a representation that the shareholder will otherwise comply with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, and (iv) any shareholder giving advance notice shall be required to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company's nominees in compliance with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act.

The By-laws also contain changes of a technical or conforming nature to several other sections.

The foregoing description of the amendments to the By-laws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the By-laws, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Except as aforesaid, no business shall be conducted at any annual meeting that is not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with this Section 3. In addition to the other requirements set forth in this Section 3, for any proposal of business to be considered at an annual meeting of shareholders, it (i) must be a proper subject for action by shareholders of the Company under these By-laws, the Articles of Incorporation, the FBCA and other applicable law, and (ii) must not relate to a matter that is expressly reserved for action by the Board of Directors under these By-laws, the Articles of Incorporation, or applicable law. For purposes of these By-laws, "Present in Person" shall mean that the shareholder proposing that the business be brought before an annual meeting, or, if the proposing shareholder is not an individual, a qualified representative of such proposing shareholder, appear in person at such annual meeting (unless such meeting is held by means of the Internet or other electronic technology in which case the proposing shareholder or its qualified representative shall be present at such annual meeting by means of the Internet or other electronic technology).

To be timely, the Proposal Notice must be delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) calendar day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) calendar day prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) calendar days before or more than sixty (60) calendar days after such anniversary date, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so delivered, or mailed and received, not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) calendar day prior to such annual meeting or, if later, the close of business on the tenth (10th) calendar day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was first made by the Company (such notice that is provided within such time periods, a "Timely Notice"). For purposes of these By-laws, "Proposal Notice Deadline" shall mean the last date for a shareholder to deliver a Proposal Notice in accordance with the provisions of the previous sentence. In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of Timely Notice as described above. For purposes of these By-laws, "close of business" shall mean 5:00 p.m. local time at the principal executive offices of the

For purposes of this Section 3, the term "Proposing Person" shall mean (i) the shareholder providing the Proposal Notice, (ii) the beneficial owner or beneficial owners, if different, on whose behalf the Proposal Notice is given, (iii) any affiliate or associate (within the meaning of Rule 12b- 2 under the Exchange Act) of such shareholder or beneficial owner, (iv) any participant (as defined in paragraphs (a)(ii)-(vi) of Instruction 3 to Item 4 of Schedule 14A) with such shareholder in any solicitation contemplated by the Proposal Notice, (v) each person who is a member of a "group" (as such term is used in Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) with any such shareholder or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7 beneficial owner (or their respective affiliates and associates), and (vi) any other person with whom such shareholder or beneficial owner (or any of their respective affiliates or associates) is Acting in Concert (as defined below). For purposes of these By-laws, a person shall be deemed to be "Acting in Concert" with another person if such person knowingly acts (whether or not pursuant to an express agreement, arrangement or understanding) in concert with, or towards a common goal relating to the management, governance or control of the Company in parallel with, such other person where (A) each person is conscious of the other person's conduct or intent and this awareness is an element in their decision-making processes and (B) at least one additional factor suggests that such persons intend to act in concert or in parallel, which such additional factors may include, without limitation, exchanging information (whether publicly or privately), attending meetings, conducting discussions, or making or soliciting invitations to act in concert or in parallel; provided, that a person shall not be deemed to be Acting in Concert with any other person solely as a result of the solicitation or receipt of revocable proxies or consents from such other person in response to a solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by way of a proxy or consent solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A. A person Acting in Concert with another person shall be deemed to be Acting in Concert with any third party who is also Acting in Concert with such other person. If the chair of an annual meeting shall determine, based on the facts and circumstances and in consultation with counsel (who may be the Company's internal counsel), that such business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with this Section 3 or that the Proposal Notice was not submitted in compliance with this Section 3, then the chair of such meeting shall so declare to such meeting and not permit such business to be transacted at such meeting. In addition, business proposed to be brought by a shareholder may not be brought before an annual meeting if such shareholder takes action contrary to the representations made in the Proposal Notice applicable to such business or if (i) when submitted to the Company prior to the Proposal Notice Deadline, the Proposal Notice applicable to such business contained an untrue statement of a fact or omitted to state a fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) after being submitted to the Company, the Proposal Notice applicable to such business was not updated in accordance with these By-laws to cause the information provided in the Proposal Notice to be true, correct and complete in all respects. A Proposing Person shall update and supplement its Proposal Notice as necessary, from time to time, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 3 shall be true, correct and complete in all respects not only prior to the Proposal Notice Deadline but also at all times thereafter and prior to the annual meeting, and such update and supplement shall be received by the Secretary of the Company not later than the earlier of (A) five (5) business days following the occurrence of any event, development or occurrence that would cause the information provided in the Proposal Notice to be not true, correct and complete in all respects, or (B) ten (10) business days prior to the meeting at which such proposals contained therein are to be considered, provided, however, that should any such event, development or occurrence take place within ten (10) business days prior to such meeting, such update and supplement shall be received by the Secretary of the Company not later than one (1) business day following any such event, development or occurrence. If the information submitted pursuant to this Section 3 by any shareholder proposing business for consideration at an annual meeting shall not be true, correct and complete

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta012.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8 in all respects prior to the Proposal Notice Deadline, such information shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 3. For the avoidance of doubt, the updates required pursuant to this Section 3 do not cause a notice that was not true, correct and complete in all respects and in compliance with this Section 3 when first delivered to the Company prior to the Proposal Notice Deadline to thereafter be in proper form in accordance with this Section 3. Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder submitting a Proposal Notice proposing business for consideration at an annual meeting shall provide, within five (5) business days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), written verification, satisfactory in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors, any duly authorized committee thereof or any duly authorized officer of the Company, to demonstrate the accuracy of any information submitted by the shareholder in the Proposal Notice delivered pursuant to this Section 3 (including, if requested, written confirmation by such shareholder that it continues to intend to bring the business proposed in the Proposal Notice before the meeting). If a shareholder fails to provide such written verification within such period, the information as to which written verification was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 3. Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder submitting a Proposal Notice proposing business for consideration at an annual meeting shall provide, within five (5) business days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), a written supplement, satisfactory in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors, any duly authorized committee thereof or any duly authorized officer of the Company, to update the information contained in any previously submitted Proposal Notice and provide the disclosures required by this Section 3 such that they are current and true, correct and complete as of the date that such supplement is submitted to the Secretary. If a shareholder fails to provide such written supplement within such period, the information as to which such written supplement was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 3. For a Proposal Notice to comply with the requirements of this Section 3, each of the requirements of this Section 3 shall be directly and expressly responded to and a Proposal Notice must clearly indicate and expressly reference which provisions of this Section 3 the information disclosed is intended to be responsive to. Information disclosed in one section of the Proposal Notice in response to one provision of this Section 3 shall not be deemed responsive to any other provision of this Section 3 unless it is expressly cross-referenced to such other provision and it is clearly apparent how the information included in one section of the Proposal Notice is directly and expressly responsive to the information required to be included in another section of the Proposal Notice pursuant to this Section 3. For the avoidance of doubt, statements purporting to provide global cross-references that purport to provide that all information provided shall be deemed to be responsive to all requirements of this Section 3 shall be disregarded and shall not satisfy the requirements of this Section 3. For a Proposal Notice to comply with the requirements of this Section 3, it must set forth in writing directly within the body of the Proposal Notice (as opposed to being incorporated by reference from any other document or writing not prepared solely in response to

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta013.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9 the requirements of these By-laws) all the information required to be included therein as set forth in this Section 3 and each of the requirements of this Section 3 shall be directly responded to in a manner that makes it clearly apparent how the information provided is specifically responsive to any requirements of this Section 3. For the avoidance of doubt, a Proposal Notice shall not be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 3 if it attempts to include the required information by incorporating by reference into the body of the Proposal Notice any other document, writing or part thereof, including, but not limited to, any documents publicly filed with the SEC not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these By-laws. For the further avoidance of doubt, the body of the Proposal Notice shall not include any documents that are not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these By-laws. A shareholder submitting the Proposal Notice, by its delivery to the Company, represents and warrants that all information contained therein, as of the Proposal Notice Deadline, is true, accurate and complete in all respects, contains no false or misleading statements and such shareholder acknowledges that it intends for the Company and the Board of Directors to rely on such information as (i) being true, accurate and complete in all respects and (ii) not containing any false or misleading statements. If the information submitted pursuant to this Section 3 by any shareholder proposing business for consideration at an annual meeting shall not be true, correct and complete in all respects prior to the Proposal Notice Deadline, such information shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 3. Notwithstanding any notice of the meeting or proxy statement sent to shareholders on behalf of the Company, a shareholder must separately comply with this Section 3 to propose business at any annual meeting. If the shareholder's proposed business is the same or relates to business brought by the Company and included in the Company's meeting notice or any supplement thereto, the shareholder is nevertheless still required to comply with this Section 3 and deliver, prior to the Proposal Notice Deadline, its own separate and timely Proposal Notice to the Secretary of the Company that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section 3. In addition to the requirements of this Section 3 with respect to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting, each Proposing Person shall comply with all applicable requirements of these By-laws, the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Exchange Act, the SEC and other applicable law in connection with such proposed business, any solicitation of proxies from the Company's shareholders in connection therewith and any filings required to be made with the SEC in connection therewith. Nothing in this Section 3 shall be deemed to affect the rights of the Company's shareholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Company's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. Section 4. Notice of Nominations for Election to the Board of Directors. Nominations of any person for election to the Board of Directors at an annual meeting or at a special meeting (but only if the election of directors is a matter specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling such special meeting in accordance with these By-laws) may be made at such meeting only (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, including by any committee or persons duly authorized to do so by the Board of Directors or these By-laws (including, without limitation, by making reference to the nominees in the proxy statement delivered to the Company's shareholders on behalf of the Board of

The foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii) shall be the exclusive means for a shareholder to propose any nomination of a person or persons for election to the Board of Directors at a shareholders' meeting. Except as aforesaid, no nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors shall be proposed at any shareholders' meeting that are not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with this Section 4 and Section 5 of this Article III. Section 6 of this Article III is the exclusive means for nominations made under clause (iii) of this Section 4(a) of this Article III. Without qualification, for a shareholder to propose a nomination of a person or persons for election to the Board of Directors at a shareholders' meeting, the shareholder must (A) provide Timely Notice (as defined in Section 3 of this Article III) thereof in writing and in proper form to the Secretary of the Company containing the information, agreements and questionnaires with respect to such shareholder and its candidates for nomination for election to the Board of Directors as required to be set forth by this Section 4 and Section 5 of this Article III (collectively, the "Nominating Notice"), and (B) provide any updates or supplements to such Nominating Notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 4 and Section 5 of this Article III. (i) Without qualification, if the election of directors is a matter specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling a special meeting, then for a shareholder to make any nomination of a person or persons for election to the Board of Directors at a special meeting, the shareholder must (i) provide Timely Notice thereof in writing and in proper form to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company, (ii) provide the information with respect to such shareholder and its candidates for nomination as required by this Section 4 and Section 5 of this Article III, and (iii) provide any updates or supplements to such notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 4. To be timely, a shareholder's notice for nominations to be made at a special meeting must be delivered to, or mailed to and received at, the principal executive offices of the Company not earlier than the one hundred twentieth (120th) calendar day prior to such special meeting and not later than the ninetieth (90th) calendar day prior to such special meeting or, if later, the tenth (10th) calendar day following the day on which public disclosure (as defined in Section 3 of Article III) of the date of such special meeting was first made by the Company. (ii) In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or special meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a Nomination Notice as described above. For purposes of these By-laws, "Nominating Notice Deadline" shall mean the last date for a shareholder to deliver a Nominating Notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.

If a shareholder fails to provide such written verification within such period, the information as to which written verification was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 4. Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder submitting a Nominating Notice proposing nominees for consideration at a shareholders' meeting shall provide, within five (5) business days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), a written supplement, satisfactory in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors, any duly authorized committee thereof or any duly authorized officer of the Company, to update the information contained in any previously submitted Nominating Notice and provide the disclosures required by this Section 4 such that they are current and true, correct and complete as of the date that such supplement is submitted to the Secretary. If a shareholder fails to provide such written supplement within such period, the information as to which such written supplement was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 4. For a Nominating Notice to comply with the requirements of this Section 4, it must set forth in writing directly within the body of the Nominating Notice (as opposed to being incorporated by reference from any other document or writing not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these By-laws) all the information required to be included therein as set forth in Section 4 and each of the requirements of this Section 4 shall be directly responded to in a manner that makes it clearly apparent how the information provided is specifically responsive to any requirements of this Section 4. For the avoidance of doubt, a Nominating Notice shall not be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4 if it attempts to include the required information by incorporating by reference into the body of the Nominating Notice any other document, writing or part thereof, including, but not limited to, any documents publicly filed with the SEC not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these By-laws. For the further avoidance of doubt, the body of the Nominating Notice shall not include any documents which are not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these By-laws. For a Nominating Notice to comply with the requirements of this Section 4, each of the requirements of Section 4 shall be directly and expressly responded to and a Nominating Notice must clearly indicate and expressly reference which provisions of Section 4 the information disclosed is intended to be responsive to. Information disclosed in one section of the Nominating Notice in response to one provision of Section 4 shall not be deemed responsive to any other provision of Section 4 unless it is expressly cross-referenced to such other provision and it is clearly apparent how the information included in one section of the Nominating Notice is directly and expressly responsive to the information required to be included in another section of the Nominating Notice pursuant to Section 4.

A shareholder submitting the Nominating Notice, by its delivery to the Company, represents and warrants that, as of the Nominating Notice Deadline, all information contained therein is true, accurate and complete in all respects, contains no false or misleading statements and such shareholder acknowledges that it intends for the Company and the Board of Directors to rely on such information as (i) being true, accurate and complete in all respects and (ii) not containing any false or misleading statements. If the information submitted pursuant to this Section 4 by any shareholder proposing director candidates for election to the Board of Directors at a shareholders' meeting shall not be true, correct and complete in all respects prior to the Nominating Notice Deadline, such information shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 4. Notwithstanding any notice of shareholders' meeting or proxy statement sent to shareholders on behalf of the Company, a shareholder must separately comply with this Section 4 to propose director candidates at any shareholders' meeting and is still required to deliver its own separate and timely Nominating Notice to the Secretary of the Company prior to the Nominating Notice Deadline that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section 4. In addition to the requirements of this Section 4 with respect to any nominations of candidates for election to the Board of Directors proposed to be made at a meeting, each Nominating Person shall comply with all applicable requirements of these By-laws, the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Exchange Act, the SEC and other applicable law in connection with any such proposed nominations of candidates, any solicitation of proxies from the Company's shareholders in connection therewith and any filings required to be made with the SEC in connection therewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17 Directors unless such Nominating Person has complied with Rule 14a-19 promulgated under the Exchange Act and (ii) if any Nominating Person giving notice (1) provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act and (2) subsequently fails to comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) and Rule 14a-19(a)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act, then the Company shall disregard any proxies or votes solicited for any candidates nominated by such Nominating Person. Upon request by the Company, if any Nominating Person provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act, such Nominating Person shall deliver to the Company, no later than five (5) business days prior to the applicable meeting, reasonable evidence that it has met the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act. The Board of Directors may also require any proposed candidate for nomination as a director to furnish such other information as may reasonably be requested by the Board of Directors in writing prior to the meeting of shareholders at which such candidate's nomination is to be acted upon in order for the Board of Directors to determine the eligibility of such candidate for nomination to be an independent director of the Company in accordance with the Company's Corporate Governance Principles. No candidate shall be eligible for nomination as a director of the Company unless such candidate for nomination and the Nominating Person seeking to place such candidate's name in nomination has complied with Section 4 of this Article III and this Section 5, as applicable. The presiding officer at the meeting shall, based on the facts and circumstances and in consultation with counsel (who may be the Company's internal counsel), determine that a nomination was not properly made in accordance with Section 4 of this Article III and this Section 5, and if such presiding officer should so determine, such presiding officer shall declare such determination to the meeting, the defective nomination shall be disregarded and any ballots cast for the candidate in question (but in the case of any form of ballot listing other qualified candidates, only the ballots cast for the candidate in question) shall be void and of no force or effect. In addition, proposed nominations made by a shareholder may not be brought before a shareholders' meeting if such shareholder takes action contrary to the representations made in the Nominating Notice applicable to such nomination or if the Nominating Notice applicable to such nomination contains an untrue statement of a fact or omits to state a fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, whenever the Board of Directors solicits proxies with respect to the election of directors at an annual meeting of the shareholders, subject to the provisions of this Section 6, the Company shall include in its proxy statement and other applicable filings pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act (the "Company's Proxy Materials"), in addition to any individuals nominated for election by the Board of Directors, the name, together with the Required Information (as defined below), of any proposed nominee for election to the Board of Directors (each such individual being hereinafter referred to as a "Proposed Nominee") by a shareholder or group of no more than twenty (20) shareholders that satisfies the requirements of this Section 6 (such individual or group, including as the context requires each member thereof, being hereinafter referred to as the "Eligible Shareholder").

The Company may also require each Proposed Nominee and the Eligible Shareholder to furnish such other information (A) as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such Proposed Nominee to serve as an independent director (as determined under any applicable rules of the SEC, listing standards of any national securities exchange on which any securities of the Company are listed, and any publicly disclosed standards used by the Board of Directors in determining and disclosing the independence of the Company's directors), (B) that could be material to a shareholder's understanding of the independence or lack of independence of such Proposed Nominee or (C) as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine that the Eligible Shareholder meets the criteria for qualification as an Eligible Shareholder. To be eligible to require the Company to include a Proposed Nominee in the Company's Proxy Materials pursuant to this Section 6, an Eligible Shareholder must further update and supplement the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such Notice of Proxy Access Nomination pursuant to this Section 6 shall be true and correct as of the record date for the annual meeting of the shareholders and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to such annual meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof, and such update and supplement (or a written notice stating that there is no such update or supplement) shall be delivered to, or mailed to and received at, the principal executive offices of the Company not later than the fifth (5th) business day after the record date for the meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date) and not later than the eighth (8th) business day prior to the date of the meeting, if practicable, or, if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to the meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof). In the event that any facts, statements or information provided by the Eligible Shareholder or a Proposed Nominee to the Company or the shareholders ceases to be true, correct and complete in all material respects or omits a material fact necessary to make such facts, statements or information, in light of the circumstances under which they were provided, not misleading, the Eligible Shareholder or Proposed Nominee, as the case may be, shall promptly notify, the Secretary of the Company, in writing, of any defect in such previously provided facts, statements or information and of the facts, statements or information required to correct any such defect. Whenever an Eligible Shareholder consists of a group of more than one shareholder, each provision in this Section 6 that requires the Eligible Shareholder to provide any written statements, representations, undertakings, agreements or other instruments or to comply with any other conditions shall be deemed to require each shareholder that is a member of such

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta026.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22 group to provide such statements, representations, undertakings, agreements or other instruments and to meet such other conditions (which, if applicable, shall apply with respect to the portion of the Required Shares owned by such shareholder). When an Eligible Shareholder is comprised of a group, a violation of any provision of these By-laws by any member of the group shall be deemed a violation by the entire group. No person may be a member of more than one group of persons constituting an Eligible Shareholder with respect to any annual meeting of the shareholders. In determining the aggregate number of shareholders in a group, two or more funds that are (A) under common management and investment control, (B) under common management and funded by the same employer, or (C) a "group of investment companies" as such term is defined in Section 12(d)(1)(G)(ii) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "Qualifying Fund Group") shall be treated as one shareholder. Not later than the deadline for delivery of the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination pursuant to this Section 6, a Qualifying Fund Group whose stock ownership is counted for purposes of determining whether a shareholder or group of shareholders qualifies as an Eligible Shareholder shall provide to the Secretary of the Company such documentation as is reasonably satisfactory to the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, that demonstrates that the funds comprising the Qualifying Fund Group satisfy the definition thereof. The maximum number of Proposed Nominees nominated by all Eligible Shareholders and entitled to be included in the Company's Proxy Materials with respect to an annual meeting of the shareholders shall be the greater of two or 20% of the total number of directors up for election as of the last day on which a Notice of Proxy Access Nomination may be timely delivered pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 6 (the "Final Proxy Access Nomination Date") or, if such percentage is not a whole number, the closest whole number below such percentage; provided that the maximum number of Proposed Nominees entitled to be included in the Company's Proxy Materials with respect to a forthcoming annual meeting of the shareholders shall be reduced by the number of incumbent directors who had been Proposed Nominees with respect to any of the preceding three annual meetings of the shareholders and whose reelection at the upcoming annual meeting is being recommended by the Board of Directors. In the event that one or more vacancies for any reason occur on the Board of Directors after the Final Proxy Access Nomination Date but before the date of the annual meeting of the shareholders and the Board of Directors elects to reduce the size of the Board of Directors in connection therewith, the maximum number of Proposed Nominees eligible for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Materials pursuant to this Section 6 shall be calculated based on the number of directors serving as so reduced. Any individual nominated by an Eligible Shareholder for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Materials pursuant to this Section 6 whose nomination is subsequently withdrawn or whom the Board of Directors decides to nominate for election to the Board of Directors shall be counted as one of the Proposed Nominees for purposes of determining when the maximum number of Proposed Nominees eligible for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Materials pursuant to this Section 6 has been reached. Any Eligible Shareholder submitting more than one Proposed Nominee for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Materials pursuant to this Section 6 shall rank such Proposed Nominees based on the order that the Eligible Shareholder desires such Proposed Nominees be selected for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Materials in the event that the total number of Proposed Nominees submitted by Eligible Shareholders pursuant to this Section 6 exceeds the maximum number of Proposed Nominees eligible for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Materials pursuant to this Section 6(h). In the event the number of Proposed Nominees submitted by Eligible Shareholders pursuant to this Section 6 exceeds the maximum

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Board of Directors or the presiding officer of the annual meeting of the shareholders shall declare a nomination by an Eligible Shareholder to be invalid, and such nomination shall be disregarded notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Company, if (i) the Proposed Nominee(s) and/or the applicable Eligible Shareholder shall have failed to comply with its or their obligations under this Section 6, as determined by the Board of Directors or the presiding officer, or (ii) the Eligible Shareholder, or a qualified representative thereof, does not appear at the annual meeting of the shareholders to present the nomination of the Proposed Nominee(s) included in the Company's Proxy Materials pursuant to this Section 6.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27 Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of a request to fix a Demand Record Date in proper form and otherwise in compliance with this Section 6 from any shareholder of record, the Board of Directors may adopt a resolution fixing a Demand Record Date for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to demand that the Secretary of the Company call a special meeting, which date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the Demand Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no resolution fixing a Demand Record Date has been adopted by the Board of Directors within the ten (10) calendar day period after the date on which such a request to fix a Demand Record Date was received, the Demand Record Date in respect thereof shall be deemed to be the twentieth (20th) calendar day after the date on which such a request was received. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6 to the contrary, no Demand Record Date shall be fixed if the Board of Directors determines that the demand or demands that would otherwise be submitted following such Demand Record Date could not comply with the requirements set forth in clauses (ii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of paragraph (f) of this Section 6. Without qualification, a special meeting of the shareholders shall not be called pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 6 unless shareholders of record as of the Demand Record Date who hold, in the aggregate, at least the Requisite Percentage timely provide one or more demands to call such special meeting in writing and in proper form to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company. Only shareholders of record on the Demand Record Date shall be entitled to demand that the Secretary of the Company call a special meeting of the shareholders pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 6. To be timely, a shareholder's demand to call a special meeting must be delivered to, or mailed to and received at, the principal executive offices of the Company not later than the sixtieth (60th) calendar day following the Demand Record Date. To be in proper form for purposes of this Section 6, a demand to call a special meeting shall set forth (i) all information relating to the business proposed to be conducted at the special meeting or the proposed election of directors at the special meeting, as the case may be, that is required by paragraph (c) of this Section 6 to be provided by a Requesting Person in a request to the Board of Directors to fix a Demand Record Date, and (ii) with respect to any shareholder or shareholders submitting a demand to call a special meeting (except for any shareholder that has provided such demand in response to a solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by way of a solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A) (a "Solicited Shareholder") the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 6 relating to a Requesting Person. A shareholder may revoke a demand to call a special meeting by written revocation delivered to the Secretary of the Company at any time prior to the special meeting. If any such revocation(s) are received by the Secretary after the Secretary's receipt of written demands from the holders of the Requisite Percentage of shareholders, and as a result of such revocation(s) there no longer are unrevoked demands from the Requisite Percentage of shareholders to call a special meeting, the Board of Directors shall have the discretion to determine whether or not to proceed with the special meeting. The Secretary of the Company shall not accept, and shall consider ineffective, a written demand from a shareholder to call a special meeting (i) that does not comply with this Section 6, (ii) that relates to an item of business to be transacted at such meeting that is not a proper subject for shareholder action under the Articles of Incorporation, these By-laws, the FBCA or other applicable law, (iii) that relates to an item of business to be transacted at such

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28 meeting that is expressly reserved for action by the Board of Directors under the Articles of Incorporation, these By-laws or applicable law, (iv) that includes an item of business to be transacted at such meeting that did not appear on the written request that resulted in the determination of the Demand Record Date, (v) that relates to an item of business (other than the election of directors) that is identical or substantially similar to an item of business (a "Similar Item") for which a record date for notice of a shareholder meeting (other than the Demand Record Date) was previously fixed and such demand is delivered between the time beginning on the sixty- first (61st) calendar day after such previous record date and ending on the one-year anniversary of such previous record date, (vi) if a Similar Item will be submitted for shareholder approval at any shareholder meeting to be held on or before the ninetieth (90th) calendar day after the Secretary receives such demand, or (vii) if a Similar Item has been presented at the most recent annual meeting or at any special meeting held within one year prior to receipt by the Secretary of such demand to call a special meeting. After receipt of demands in proper form and in accordance with this Section 6 from a shareholder or shareholders holding the Requisite Percentage, the Board of Directors shall duly call, and determine the place, date and time of, a special meeting of shareholders for the purpose or purposes and to conduct the business specified in the demands received by the Company. Notwithstanding anything in these By-laws to the contrary, the Board of Directors may submit its own proposal or proposals for consideration at such a special meeting. The record date for notice and voting for such a special meeting shall be fixed in accordance with Section 6 of Article VIII. The Board of Directors shall provide written notice of such special meeting to the shareholders in accordance with Section 7 of Article III. In connection with a special meeting called in accordance with this Section 6, the shareholder or shareholders (except for any Solicited Shareholder) who requested that the Board of Directors fix a record date for notice and voting for the special meeting in accordance with this Section 6 or who delivered a demand to call a special meeting to the Secretary of the Company shall further update and supplement the information previously provided to the Company in connection with such request or demand, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such request or demand pursuant to this Section 6 shall be true and correct as of the record date for notice of the special meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company not later than five (5) business days after the record date for notice of the special meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of such record date), and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the special meeting or, if practicable, any adjournment or postponement thereof (and, if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to the date to which the special meeting has been adjourned or postponed) (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof). For the avoidance of doubt, the updates required pursuant to this Section 6 do not cause a request or demand, as the case may be, which was not in compliance with this Section 6 when first delivered to the Company to thereafter be in proper form in accordance with this Section 6. Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder or shareholders who have

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta033.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29 submitted to the Company a request or demand, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 6 shall provide, within five (5) business days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), written verification, satisfactory in the reasonable discretion of the Board, any duly authorized committee thereof or any duly authorized officer of the Company, to demonstrate the accuracy of any information submitted by the shareholder pursuant to this Section 6 (including, if requested by the Company, written confirmation by such shareholder that it continues to intend to conduct the business specified in the request or demand). If a shareholder fails to provide such written verification within such period, the information as to which written verification was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 6. Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder or shareholders who have submitted to the Company a request or demand, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 6 shall provide, within five (5) business days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), a written supplement, satisfactory in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors, any duly authorized committee thereof or any duly authorized officer of the Company, to update the information contained in any previously submitted request or demand and provide the disclosures required by this Section 6 such that they are current and true, correct and complete as of the date that such supplement is submitted to the Secretary. If a shareholder fails to provide such written supplement within such period, the information as to which such written supplement was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 6. In order for any request or demand, as the case may be, that is provided to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 6, each of the applicable requirements of this Section 6 shall be directly and expressly responded to and a request or demand, as the case may be, must clearly indicate and expressly reference which provisions of this Section 6 the information disclosed is intended to be responsive to. Information disclosed in one section of a request or demand, as the case may be, in response to one provision of this Section 6 shall not be deemed responsive to any other provision of this Section 6 unless it is expressly cross- referenced to such other provision and it is clearly apparent how the information included in one section of the request or demand, as the case may be, is directly and expressly responsive to the information required to be included in another section of such request or demand pursuant to Section 6. For the avoidance of doubt, statements purporting to provide global cross-references that purport to provide that all information provided shall be deemed to be responsive to all requirements of this Section 6 shall be disregarded and shall not satisfy the requirements of this Section 6. In order for any request or demand, as the case may be, that is provided to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 6, it must set forth in writing directly within the body of the request or demand, as the case may be (as opposed to being incorporated by reference from any other document or writing not prepared in response to the requirements of this Section 6) all the information required to be included therein as set forth in this Section 6 and each of the applicable requirements of this Section 6 shall be directly responded to in a manner that makes it clearly apparent how the information provided is specifically responsive to any requirements of this Section 6. For the avoidance of doubt, a request or demand, as the case may

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta034.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;30 be, which is provided to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 6, shall not be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 6 if it attempts to include the required information by incorporating by reference into the body of the request or demand, as the case may be, any other document, writing or part thereof, including, but not limited to, any documents publicly filed with the SEC not prepared in response to the requirements of this Section 6. For the further avoidance of doubt, the body of the request or demand shall not include any documents not prepared solely in response to the requirements of this Section 6. A shareholder submitting a request or demand, as the case may be, to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 6, by its delivery to the Company, represents and warrants that all information contained therein, as of date of delivery, is true, accurate and complete in all respects, contains no false or misleading statements and such shareholder acknowledges that it intends for the Company and the Board of Directors to rely on such information as (i) being true, accurate and complete in all respects and (ii) not containing any false or misleading statements. If the information submitted pursuant to this Section 6 by any shareholder to the Company shall not be true, correct and complete in all respects as of the date of submission, such information shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 6. Notwithstanding anything in these By-laws to the contrary, the Secretary of the Company shall not be required to call a special meeting pursuant to this Section 6 except in accordance with this Section 6. If the Board of Directors shall determine that any request to fix a record date for notice and voting for the special meeting or demand to call and hold a special meeting was not properly made in accordance with this Section 6, or shall determine that the shareholder or shareholders requesting that the Board of Directors fix such record date or submitting a demand to call the special meeting have not otherwise complied with this Section 6, then the Board of Directors shall not be required to fix such record date or to call and hold the special meeting. In addition to the requirements of this Section 6, each Requesting Person shall comply with all requirements of applicable law, including all requirements of the Exchange Act, the SEC and other applicable law, in connection with any requests to fix a record date pursuant to this Section 6, demands made pursuant to this Section 6 to call a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting, any solicitations of special meeting demands or proxies from the Company's shareholders in connection therewith and any filings required to be made with the SEC in connection with any of the foregoing. Section 8. Notice of Annual or Special Meeting. Written or electronic notice of the place, date and time of the meeting of shareholders and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting has been called, shall be given by personal delivery, mail, or, with the consent of the shareholder entitled to receive notice, by facsimile, electronic mail or other means of electronic transmission at least ten (10) calendar days and not more than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the meeting to each shareholder of record of the Company entitled to vote at such meeting at the address appearing on the record books of the Company. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail addressed to the shareholder at the shareholder's address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the Company, with postage prepaid thereon. Notice given by electronic transmission pursuant to this section

Section 9. Quorum. A quorum at any annual or special meeting of shareholders shall consist of shareholders representing, either in person or by proxy, a majority of the outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote at such meeting, except as otherwise specially provided by law or in the Articles of Incorporation. Section 10. Adjournment. If a quorum be not present at a properly called shareholders' meeting, the meeting may be adjourned by those present, and if a notice of such adjourned meeting, sent to all shareholders entitled to vote thereat, contains the time and place of holding such adjourned meeting and a statement of the purpose of the meeting, that the previous meeting failed for lack of a quorum, and that under the provisions of this Section 9 it is proposed to hold the adjourned meeting with a quorum of those present, then, at such adjourned meeting, except as may be otherwise required by law or provided in the Articles of Incorporation, any number of shareholders entitled to vote thereat, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum, and the votes of a majority in interest of those present at such meeting shall be sufficient to transact business. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, the chair or other presiding officer at any shareholders' meeting, or a majority of the shares represented thereat, may adjourn the meeting from time to time, whether or not there is a quorum. Section 11. Voting. At all meetings of the shareholders, every registered owner of shares entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy and shall have one vote for each such share standing in such registered owner's name on the books of the Company. At all elections of directors the voting shall be by ballot. The Board of Directors, or, if the Board shall not have made the appointment, the chair presiding at any meeting of shareholders, shall have the power to appoint one or more persons to act as inspectors or tellers to receive, canvass, and report the votes cast by the shareholders at such meeting; but no candidate for the office of director shall be appointed as inspector or teller at any meeting for the election of directors. Any shareholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other shareholders must use a proxy card color other than white, which shall be reserved for the exclusive use by the Board. Section 12. Conduct of Meeting. At all meetings of the Company's shareholders, the Chair of the Board, or, in the Chair's absence, the Lead Independent Director or, in the Lead Independent Director's absence, any director or officer of the Company as may be designated by resolution of the Board adopted by a majority of the members of the Board, shall preside and act as chair of the meeting. The chair of the meeting shall have broad discretion in determining the order of business at a shareholders' meeting. The chair's authority to conduct the meeting shall include, but in no way be limited to, opening and adjourning the meeting, recognizing shareholders entitled to speak, allowing for and terminating questions by shareholders, calling for reports, determining whether any proposed business or proposed nominations are properly brought before

The Secretary of the Company shall act as secretary of all meetings of the shareholders, and in the Secretary's absence, the chair of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting. Section 14. Action by Written Consent in Lieu of a Meeting.

For the purpose of permitting the inspectors to perform such review, no action by written consent and without a meeting shall be effective until such inspectors have completed their review, determined that the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents delivered to the Company in accordance with this Section 13 and applicable law has been obtained to authorize or take the action specified in the consents, and certified such determination for entry in the records of the Company kept for the purpose of recording the proceedings of meetings of shareholders. Nothing contained in this Section 13(b) shall in any way be construed to suggest or imply that the Board or any shareholder shall not be entitled to contest the validity of any consent or revocation thereof, whether before or after such certification by the independent inspectors, or to take any other action (including, without limitation, the commencement, prosecution or defense of any litigation with respect thereto, and the seeking of injunctive relief in such litigation).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33 Without qualification, any shareholder of record seeking to have the shareholders authorize or take any action by written consent shall first request in writing that the Board of Directors fix a Written Consent Record Date for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to take such action, which request shall be in proper form and delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company. Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of a request in proper form and otherwise in compliance with this Section 13(c) from any such shareholder, the Board of Directors may adopt a resolution fixing a Written Consent Record Date for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to take such action, 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) calendar days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no resolution fixing a record date has been adopted by the Board of Directors within such ten (10) calendar day period after the date on which such a request is received, (i) the Written Consent Record Date for determining shareholders entitled to consent to such action, when no prior action of the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a valid signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company in the manner described in this Section 13, and (ii) the Written Consent Record Date for determining shareholders entitled to consent to such action, when prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action. To be in proper form for purposes of this Section 13, a request by a shareholder for the Board of Directors to fix a Written Consent Record Date shall set forth: (i) As to each Soliciting Person (as defined below), the Shareholder Information (as defined in Section 3(c)(i), except that for purposes of this Section 13 the term "Soliciting Person" shall be substituted for the term "Proposing Person" in all places it appears in Section 3(c)(i)); (ii) As to each Soliciting Person, any Disclosable Interests (as defined in Section 3(c)(ii), except that for purposes of this Section 13 the term "Soliciting Person" shall be substituted for the term "Proposing Person" in all places it appears in Section 3(c)(ii) and the disclosure in clause (L) of Section 3(c)(ii) shall be made with respect to the action or actions proposed to be taken by written consent); (iii) As to the action or actions proposed to be taken by written consent, (A) a description in reasonable detail of the proposed action or actions, the reasons for taking such action or actions (including the text of any reasons for the business that will be disclosed in any consent solicitation statement or supplement thereto to be filed with the SEC); (B) the text of the resolutions or consent proposed to be acted upon by written consent of the shareholders and in the event that such resolutions or consent include a proposal to amend these By-laws, the complete text of the proposed amendment; (C) a description in reasonable detail of any interest of any Soliciting Person in such proposed actions, including any anticipated benefit to any Soliciting Person therefrom, including any interest that will be disclosed to the Company's shareholders in any consent solicitation statement to be distributed to the Company's shareholders; (D) a reasonably detailed description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings, written or oral and formal

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34 or informal, (x) between or among any of the Soliciting Persons or (y) between or among any Soliciting Person and any other person (including their names) in connection with the request to fix a Written Consent Record Date or such proposed action or actions; and (E) any other information relating to such proposed action that would be required to be disclosed in a consent solicitation statement or other filing required to be made with the SEC in connection with solicitations of written consents by any Soliciting Person in support of the action proposed to be taken by written consent pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act; and (iv) If directors are proposed to be elected by written consent, the Nominee Information for each person whom a Soliciting Person proposes to elect as a director by written consent. For purposes of this Section 13, the term "Soliciting Person" shall mean (i) the shareholder making a request for the Board of Directors to fix a record date and proposing the action or actions to be taken by written consent, (ii) the beneficial owner or beneficial owners, if different, on whose behalf such request is made, (iii) any affiliate or associate (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) of such shareholder or beneficial owner, (iv) any participant (as defined in paragraphs (a)(ii)-(vi) of Instruction 3 to Item 4 of Schedule 14A) with such shareholder in any solicitation contemplated by the request for the Board of Directors to fix a record date, (v) each person who is a member of a "group" (as such term is used in Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) with any such shareholder or beneficial owner (or their respective affiliates and associates), and (vi) any other person with whom such shareholder or beneficial owner (or any of their respective affiliates or associates) is Acting in Concert (as defined above). In connection with an action or actions proposed to be taken by written consent in accordance with this Section 13, the shareholder or shareholders seeking such action or actions shall further update and supplement the information previously provided to the Company in connection therewith, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided pursuant to this Section 13 shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the shareholders eligible to take such action and as of the date that is five (5) business days prior to the date the consent solicitation is commenced, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company not later than five (5) business days after the record date for determining the shareholders eligible to take such action (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date), and not later than three (3) business days prior to the date that the consent solicitation is commenced (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of five (5) business days prior to the commencement of the consent solicitation). For the avoidance of doubt, the updates required pursuant to this Section 13 do not cause a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date that was not in compliance with this Section 13 when first delivered to the Company to thereafter be in proper form in accordance with this Section 13. Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder or shareholders who have submitted to the Company a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date shall provide, within five (5) business days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), written verification, satisfactory in the reasonable discretion of the Board, any duly

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta039.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35 authorized committee thereof or any duly authorized officer of the Company, to demonstrate the accuracy of any information submitted by the shareholder pursuant to this Section 13 (including, if requested by the Company, written confirmation by such shareholder that it continues to intend to take action by written consent). If a shareholder fails to provide such written verification within such period, the information as to which written verification was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 13. Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder or shareholders who have submitted to the Company a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date shall provide, within five (5) business days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), a written supplement, satisfactory in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors, any duly authorized committee thereof or any duly authorized officer of the Company, to update the information contained in any previously submitted request to fix a Written Consent Record Date and provide the disclosures required by this Section 13 such that they are current and true, correct and complete as of the date that such supplement is submitted to the Secretary. If a shareholder fails to provide such written supplement within such period, the information as to which such written supplement was requested shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 13. In order for any request to fix a Written Consent Record Date that is provided to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 13, each of the applicable requirements of this Section 13 shall be directly and expressly responded to and a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date must clearly indicate and expressly reference which provisions of this Section 13 the information disclosed is intended to be responsive to. Information disclosed in one section of a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date in response to one provision of this Section 13 shall not be deemed responsive to any other provision of this Section 13 unless it is expressly cross-referenced to such other provision and it is clearly apparent how the information included in one section of the request to fix a Written Consent Record Date is directly and expressly responsive to the information required to be included in another section of such request pursuant to Section 13. For the avoidance of doubt, statements purporting to provide global cross- references that purport to provide that all information provided shall be deemed to be responsive to all requirements of this Section 13 shall be disregarded and shall not satisfy the requirements of this Section 13. In order for any request to fix a Written Consent Record Date that is provided to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 13, it must set forth in writing directly within the body of the request (as opposed to being incorporated by reference from any other document or writing not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these By- laws) all the information required to be included therein as set forth in this Section 13 and each of the applicable requirements of this Section 13 shall be directly responded to in a manner that makes it clearly apparent how the information provided is specifically responsive to any requirements of this Section 13. For the avoidance of doubt, a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date that is provided to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 13 shall not be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 13 if it attempts to include the required information by incorporating by reference into the body of the request any other document, writing or part thereof, including, but not limited to, any documents publicly filed with the SEC not prepared solely in

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;36 response to the requirements of these By-laws. For the further avoidance of doubt, the body of the request to fix a Written Consent Record Date shall not include any documents not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these By-laws. A shareholder submitting a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date to the Company to comply with the requirements of this Section 13, by its delivery to the Company, represents and warrants that all information contained therein, as of the date of delivery, is true, accurate and complete in all respects, contains no false or misleading statements and such shareholder acknowledges that it intends for the Company and the Board of Directors to rely on such information as (i) being true, accurate and complete in all respects and (ii) not containing any false or misleading statements. If the information submitted in a request to fix a Written Consent Record Date pursuant to this Section 13 by any shareholder to the Company shall not be true, correct and complete in all respects as of the date of submission, such information shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 13. In addition to the requirements of this Section 13 with respect to shareholders proposing to take an action by written consent, each Soliciting Person shall comply with all applicable requirements of these By-laws, the Articles of Incorporation, the Exchange Act, the SEC and other applicable law in connection with any such proposed action, any solicitation of consents in connection therewith and any filings required to be made with the SEC in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything in these By-laws to the contrary, no action may be taken by the shareholders by written consent except in accordance with this Section 13. If the Board of Directors shall determine that any request to fix a Written Consent Record Date or to take shareholder action by written consent was not properly made in accordance with this Section 13, or the shareholder or shareholders seeking to take such action do not otherwise comply with this Section 13, then the Board of Directors shall not be required to fix a Written Consent Record Date and any such purported action by written consent shall be null and void to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Section 15. Postponement and Cancellation of Meetings. Any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of the shareholders may be postponed, and any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of the shareholders called by the Board may be canceled, by resolution of the Board upon public notice given prior to the time previously scheduled for such meeting of shareholders. ARTICLE IV DIRECTORS Section 1. Authority. The affairs, property, and business of the Company shall be managed under the direction of a Board of Directors, consisting of the number of persons authorized under the Articles of Incorporation and these By-laws, who shall be elected at the annual meeting of the shareholders for a term of one (1) year, and shall hold office until their successors are duly elected and qualified. In addition to the powers and authorities expressly conferred upon the Board of Directors by these By-laws and the Articles of Incorporation, the

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta041.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;37 Board of Directors may exercise all powers of the Company and do all lawful acts and things which are not by statute or by the Articles of Incorporation or these By-laws directed or required to be exercised or done by the shareholders. Section 2. Organization. The Board of Directors shall from time to time, but in no event less frequently than annually, elect a Chair of the Board from among the directors. Such Chair of the Board shall be elected by resolution of the Board of Directors adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board for adoption). The Chair of the Board may be, but is not required to be, an officer or employee of the Company. Meetings of the Board shall be presided over by the Chair of the Board, or such other person as the Board may determine. The Secretary of the Company shall act as secretary of the meeting, and in the Secretary's absence such other person as the person presiding over the meeting may appoint. Section 3. Number. The number of directors may at any time be increased (to a maximum of twenty (20) directors) or decreased, in each case exclusively by the vote of a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time a resolution regarding the foregoing is presented to the Board for adoption) at any meeting of the Board of Directors. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. Section 4. Term. The entire Board of Directors shall stand for election or re-election by the shareholders at each annual meeting, and each director shall be elected to serve until such director's successor shall be elected and duly qualified or until such director's earlier death, resignation or removal in the manner as herein provided. Section 5. Vacancies. All vacancies in the Board of Directors, whether caused by an increase in the number of directors, resignation, death, or otherwise, may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, even though less than a quorum, or by the shareholders. A director elected to fill any vacancy shall hold office for the unexpired term of such director's predecessor, and until such director's successor is duly elected and qualified. Section 6. Resignations. Any director may resign at any time upon notice given in writing or by electronic transmission to the Chair of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the Secretary of the Company; provided, however, that if such notice is given by electronic transmission, such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the director. A resignation is effective when the resignation is delivered, unless the resignation specifies a later effective date or an effective date determined upon the occurrence of an event or events. Acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. A resignation that is conditioned upon the director failing to receive a specified vote for re-election as a director may provide that it is irrevocable. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or these By-laws, when one or more directors resign from the Board of Directors, effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;38 Section 7. Majority Vote. Except as provided in Section 8 of this Article IV with respect to Contested Elections, each nominee shall be elected a director by a Majority Vote at any meeting of shareholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present. For purposes of these By-laws, a "Majority Vote" means that the number of votes cast in favor of a nominee exceeds the number of votes cast against the nominee. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, shall not be counted as "votes cast" with respect to that nominee. Section 8. Contested Election. Except as provided in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Article IV, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast in any Contested Election at which a quorum is present. For purposes of these By-laws, a "Contested Election" means an election of directors with respect to which the Secretary of the Company has received notice that a shareholder has proposed the nomination of at least one person for election to the Board of Directors at a meeting of shareholders which notice is in compliance with the advance notice requirements set forth in Sections 4 and 5 of Article III, and such notice of nomination has not been withdrawn by such shareholder on or prior to the tenth (10th) calendar day preceding the date the Company files its definitive proxy statement relating to the Company's annual meeting of shareholders with the SEC (regardless of whether or not such proxy statement is thereafter revised or supplemented). Section 9. Place of Meeting. The Board of Directors may hold meetings and keep the books of the Company within or without the State of Florida. Section 10. Annual Board Meeting. The annual meeting of the Board of Directors, of which no notice shall be necessary, shall be held following the annual meeting of the shareholders, or following any adjournment thereof, for the purpose of the organization of the Board and the election or appointment of officers for the ensuing year and for the transaction of such other business as may be brought before such meeting. Section 11. Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at the principal executive offices of the Company or at such other place or places, within or without the State of Florida, as the Board of Directors may from time to time designate. Section 12. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called at any time by the Chair of the Board of Directors, or the Chief Executive Officer, or, in their absence, by the President or any Vice President, or by any two directors, to be held at the principal executive offices of the Company, or at such other place or places, within or without the State of Florida, as the directors may from time to time designate and specify in the respective notices or waivers of notice of such meeting. Section 13. Notice. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called on at least forty-eight (48) hours' notice to each director if notice is given to each director personally or by telephone (including by a voice or text messaging system), facsimile or electronic mail, or on three (3) calendar days' notice from the official date of deposit in the mail if notice is sent by internationally recognized courier to each director, directed to each director at that director's address, telephone number, facsimile number or electronic mail address, as the case may be, as shown on the Company's records. Such notice need not state the purpose of, nor the business to be transacted at, that meeting, except as may otherwise be required by these By-laws or applicable

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta043.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;39 law. Notice need not be given to a director present at a meeting. A meeting may be held at any time without notice if all the directors are present or if those not present waive notice of the meeting in writing either before or after that meeting. Section 14. Conduct of Meeting; Quorum. At all meetings of the Board of Directors, the Chair of the Board, or, in the Chair's absence, the Lead Independent Director or, in the Lead Independent Director's absence, such person as may be designated by resolution of the Board adopted by a majority of the members of the Board present at the meeting, shall preside. A majority of the members of the Board of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but less than a quorum may adjourn any meeting from time to time until a quorum shall be present, whereupon the meeting may be held, as adjourned, without further notice. At any meeting at which every director shall be present, even though without any notice, any business may be transacted. Section 15. Meetings by Electronic Communications Equipment. Any one or more members of the Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors, or such committee, by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting by such means shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. Section 16. Action by Written Consent. Unless otherwise restricted by the Articles of Incorporation or these By-laws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, or by electronic transmission, and the writing or writings or electronic transmissions are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee thereof, as the case may be. Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form. Section 17. Compensation for Service. The Board of Directors may establish, from time to time, a schedule of compensation for members of the Board of Directors, as well as a fixed sum and expenses of attendance for attendance at each regular or special meeting of the Board; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the Company in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of special or standing Committees of the Board may be allowed compensation for attending Committee meetings. The Board of Directors may likewise provide that the Company shall reimburse each director or member of a committee for any expenses incurred on account of such director's or member's attendance at any meeting of the Board of Directors or any Committees thereof. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, directors who are employees of the Company shall not receive any compensation for service on the Board of Directors, but shall be reimbursed for expenses of attendance at meetings. Section 18. Interested Directors. No contract or other transaction between the Company and one or more of its directors, or any other corporation, firm, association, or entity in which one or more of its directors are directors or officers, or are financially interested, shall be either void or voidable because of such relationship or interest, because such director or directors are present

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta044.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;40 at the meeting of the Board of Directors or a Committee thereof that authorizes, approves, or ratifies such contract or transaction, or because such director's or directors' votes are counted for such purpose, if: The fact of such relationship or interest is disclosed or known to the Board of Directors or Committee that authorizes, approves, or ratifies the contract or transaction by a vote or consent sufficient for the purpose without counting the votes or consents of such interested directors; or The fact of such relationship or interest is disclosed or known to the shareholders entitled to vote and they authorize, approve, or ratify such contract or transaction by vote or written consent; or The contract or transaction is fair and reasonable as to the Company at the time it is authorized by the Board of Directors, a Committee thereof or the shareholders. An interested director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or a Committee thereof that authorizes, approves, or ratifies such contract or transaction. Section 19. Indemnification. Mandatory Indemnification for Derivative Actions. The Company shall, except as provided in Section 22 hereof, indemnify any director or Officer of the Company made, or threatened to be made, a party or a witness to any Proceeding, by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of (or arising in part out of) such person being or having served as (i) a director or Officer of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, (ii) a director, officer, employee, partner, agent, manager, member, fiduciary, trustee or other representative of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, at the request of, for the convenience of, or to represent the interests of, the Company, or (iii) a Trustee of any employee benefit plan or trust or other program sponsored by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer or employee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer or employee, against amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the Board of Directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such Proceeding, or in connection with an appeal therein, unless either (i) the Board of Directors determines that such person did not act in good faith in the reasonable belief that such action was in the best interests of the Company or other entity covered by this Section 19, or (ii) such person is adjudged in a Final Adjudication to have been guilty of conduct as to which, as a matter of law, no such indemnification may be made. Mandatory Indemnification for Non-Derivative Actions. The Company shall, except as provided in Section 22 hereof, indemnify any director or Officer of the Company made, or threatened to be made, a party or a witness to any Proceeding, other than one by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor, brought to impose a liability or penalty on such person for an act alleged to have been committed by such person in the capacity of (i) a

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta045.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;41 director or Officer of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, (ii) a director, officer, employee, partner, agent, manager, member, fiduciary, trustee or other representative of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise which such person served at the request of, for the convenience of, or to represent the interests of, the Company, or (iii) a Trustee of any employee benefit plan or trust or other program sponsored by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer or employee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer or employee, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred as a result of such Proceeding, unless the Board of Directors determines that: (i) such person did not act in good faith in the reasonable belief that such action was in the best interests of the Company or other entity covered by this Section 19, or (ii) with respect to any criminal action or Proceeding, such person had reasonable cause to believe that such person's conduct was unlawful. The termination of any such Proceeding by judgment, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere shall not in itself disqualify such person from indemnification except in any case where such person is adjudged in a Final Adjudication to have been guilty of conduct as to which, as a matter of law, no such indemnification may be made. Right to Advancement of Expenses. The Company shall advance the payment of expenses, including attorneys' fees, to any person entitled to indemnification hereunder in advance of the Final Adjudication of any Proceeding. Such advances shall be paid by the Company within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from the indemnified person requesting such advance or advances from time to time together with a reasonable accounting of such expenses; provided, however, that the advancement of such expenses to an indemnified person in advance of the Final Adjudication of a Proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of an Undertaking. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the FBCA, the Company shall not impose on an indemnified person additional conditions to the advancement of expenses or require from the indemnified person additional undertakings regarding repayment. Advancements of expenses shall not be required to be secured, shall not bear interest and shall be made without regard to the indemnified person's ability to repay the expenses. Advancements of expenses to an indemnified person shall include any and all reasonable expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement, including expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advancements claimed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right to advancement of expenses shall not apply to any Proceeding against an indemnified person brought by the Company and approved by resolution of the Board of Directors adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time such resolution is presented to the Board of Directors for adoption) that alleges willful misappropriation of corporate assets by such indemnified person, wrongful disclosure of confidential information, or any other willful and deliberate breach in bad faith of such indemnified person's duty to the Company or its shareholders. Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit. If a claim under Subsections (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 19 is not paid in full by the Company within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Company, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be ten (10) days, the indemnified person may at any time

------

![](rjfbylaws23xamendedresta046.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;42 thereafter bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If the indemnified person is successful in whole or in substantial part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Company to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an Undertaking, the indemnified person shall be entitled to be reimbursed for the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit to the fullest extent permitted by law. In any suit brought by the indemnified person to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the indemnified person to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that the indemnified person has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in these By-laws or the FBCA. In any suit by the Company to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an Undertaking, the Company shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a Final Adjudication that the indemnified person has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in these By-laws or the FBCA. Neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors, a committee thereof or independent legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the indemnified person is proper in the circumstances because the indemnified person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in these By-laws, nor an actual determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, a committee thereof or independent legal counsel) that the indemnified person has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the indemnified person has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the indemnified person, be a defense to such suit. Representation. In any instance where more than one person is entitled to reimbursement of attorneys' fees pursuant to this Section 19, the Company may, in its discretion, select one attorney to serve as attorney for all such persons, unless, in the reasonable opinion of the attorney selected by the Company, a conflict of interest exists that would prevent representation by that attorney of one or more persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, any person may at any time decide to be represented by an attorney of such person's choosing, at such person's own expense. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and the advancement of expenses conferred in this Section 19 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the FBCA or any other applicable law (common law or statutory law), these By-laws, provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, agreement, insurance policy, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's official capacity with respect to the Company and as to action in another capacity while holding such office or while employed by the Company. The Company is specifically authorized to enter into an agreement with any of its directors, officers, employees or agents providing for indemnification and advancement of expenses that may change, enhance, qualify or limit any right to indemnification or the advancement of expenses provided by this Section 19, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the FBCA or other applicable law. Continuation of Rights. The rights of indemnification and advancement of expenses provided in this Section 19 shall continue as to any person who has ceased to serve the Company in an official capacity and shall inure to the benefit of such person's spouse, heirs, executors, administrators and estates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;43 Contract Rights. Without the necessity of entering into an express contract with any indemnified person, the obligations of the Company to indemnify an indemnified person under this Section 19, including the duty to advance expenses, shall be considered a contract right between the Company and such indemnified person and shall be effective to the same extent and as if provided for in a contract between the Company and such indemnified person. Such contract right shall be deemed to vest at the commencement of such indemnified person's service to or at the request of the Company, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 19 shall affect, to the detriment of the indemnified person and such indemnified person's heirs, executors, administrators and estate, such obligations of the Company in connection with a claim based on any act or failure to act occurring before such modification or repeal. Intent of Section 19; Effect of Amendment.
