2. <u>Liquidation Rights</u>. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after there shall have been paid to or set aside for the holders of Preferred Stock the full preferential amounts, if any, to which they are entitled, the holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive pro rata, according to the number of shares held by each, the remaining net assets of the Corporation available for distribution.

------

3. <u>Voting Rights</u>. Except as otherwise provided by the FBCA, and except as may be determined by the Board of Directors with respect to Preferred Stock pursuant to Section B of this Article Fourth, only the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to vote for the election of directors of the Corporation and for all other corporate purposes. Upon any such vote the holders of Common Stock shall, except as otherwise provided by law, be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held by them respectively.

B. <u>PREFERRED STOCK</u> 

1. <u>Series and Variations Between Series</u>. Pursuant to Section 607.0602 of the FBCA, the Board of Directors of the Corporation is hereby expressly authorized, without the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation, to (a) provide for the classification and reclassification of any unissued shares of Preferred Stock and determine the preferences, limitations, and relative rights thereof and (b) issue Preferred Stock in one or more series, all within the limitations set forth in Section 607.0601 of the FBCA. The authority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation with respect to each series of Preferred Stock shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following:

(1) the number of shares constituting such series and the distinctive designation of that series;

(2) the dividend rate, if any, on the shares of such series, whether dividends shall be cumulative, and, if so, from which date or dates, and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of dividends on shares of that series;

(3) whether such series shall have voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights;

(4) whether such series shall have conversion privileges and, if so, the terms and conditions of conversion, including provision for adjustment of the conversion rate upon such events as the Board of Directors shall determine;

(5) whether or not the shares of such series shall be redeemable, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the date or dates upon or after which they shall be redeemable and the amount per share payable in case of redemption, which amount may vary under different conditions and at different redemption dates;

(6) whether such series shall have a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase of shares of the series, and, if so, the terms and amount of such sinking fund;

C. <u>NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS</u> 

No holder of shares of any class of capital stock of the Corporation shall have any preferential or preemptive right to subscribe to or acquire (1) unissued or treasury shares of the Corporation of any class, (2) securities of the Corporation convertible into or carrying a right to acquire or subscribe to shares of any class or (3) any other obligations, warrants, rights to subscribe to shares or other securities of the Corporation of any class, in each case whether now or hereafter authorized.

**FIFTH:** Subject to any additional vote required by these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Corporation, in furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, repeal, alter, amend and rescind any or all of the Bylaws of the Corporation.

**SIXTH:** The Board of Directors is classified as set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. The directors are classified with respect to the time for which they severally hold office, into three classes, Class A, Class B and Class C, each of which shall be as nearly equal number as possible, and shall be adjusted from time to time in the manner specified in the Bylaws of the Corporation to maintain such proportionality. Each director in Class A was elected to hold office for a term expiring at the 2026 annual meeting of the shareholders; each director in Class B was elected to hold office for a term expiring at the 2027 annual meeting of the shareholders; and each director in Class C was elected to hold office for a term expiring at the 2028 annual meeting of the shareholders. At

------

each annual meeting of the shareholders beginning in 2026, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at that meeting will be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of the shareholders held in the third year following the year of election and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until such director's earlier death, resignation or removal. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article Sixth, each director will serve until such director's successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director's earlier death, resignation or removal.

Subject to any additional vote required by these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the number of directors of the Corporation shall be determined in the manner set forth in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Each director shall be entitled to one vote on each matter presented to the Board of Directors.

**SEVENTH:** Any director may be removed from office, but only for Cause (as defined below) by the affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote for the election of directors (or, if a director is elected by a voting group of shareholders, at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock of the voting group of shareholders that elected the director to be removed). As used herein, "**Cause**" shall exist only if the director whose removal is proposed (1) has been convicted of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction and such conviction is no longer subject to direct appeal or (2) has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable for willful misconduct in the performance of his or her duties to the Corporation in a matter which has a material adverse effect on the business of the Corporation and such adjudication is no longer subject to direct appeal.

**NINTH:** Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation shall so provide.

**TENTH:** Meetings of shareholders may be held within or without the State of Florida, as the Bylaws of the Corporation may provide. The books of the Corporation may be kept outside the State of Florida at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

**ELEVENTH:** Any action required or permitted to be taken by shareholders of the Corporation may be taken only upon the vote of shareholders at an annual or special meeting of shareholders duly noticed and called in accordance with the FBCA and the Bylaws of the Corporation, and no such action may be taken without a meeting by written consent of shareholders.

**TWELFTH:** To the fullest extent permitted by law, a director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. If the FBCA or any other law of the State of Florida is amended after approval by the shareholders of this Article Twelfth to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the FBCA as so amended.

Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article Twelfth by the shareholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of, or increase the liability of any director of the Corporation with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to, such repeal or modification.

------

**THIRTEENTH:** To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation is authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) directors, officers and agents of the Corporation (and any other persons to which FBCA permits the Corporation to provide indemnification) through Bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise provided by the FBCA.

Any amendment, repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article Thirteenth shall not (a) adversely affect any right or protection of any director, officer or other agent of the Corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or modification or (b) increase the liability of any director of the Corporation with respect to any acts or omissions of such director, officer or agent occurring prior to, such amendment, repeal or modification.

**FOURTEENTH:** Notwithstanding any other provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or any provision in the Bylaws of the Corporation: (1) any provisions in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation that require a greater voting requirement than provided in the FBCA may only be amended by the same vote required to take action under the voting requirement then in effect; and (2) any provisions in the Bylaws of the Corporation that require a greater voting requirement than provided in the FBCA may only be amended by the same vote required to take action under the voting requirement then in effect.

**FIFTEENTH:**

3. To the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Florida, no potential transaction or matter may be deemed to be a corporate opportunity of the Corporation or Controlled Affiliates unless (a) the Corporation and its Controlled Affiliates would be permitted to undertake such transaction or matter in accordance with these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and applicable law, (b) the Corporation and its Controlled Affiliates at such time have sufficient financial resources to undertake such transaction or matter, (c) such transaction or matter would be in the same or similar line of business in which the Corporation and its Controlled Affiliates are then engaged or a line of business that is reasonably related to, or a reasonable extension of, such line of business and (d) the Corporation and its Controlled Affiliates at such time have an interest or reasonable expectancy therein.

If the election of directors shall not be held on the date fixed as herein provided for any annual meeting of shareholders, or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of shareholders as soon thereafter as is practicable.

Section 2.2 <u>Special Meetings</u>. Special meetings of the shareholders may be called only by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President (in the absence of the Chief Executive Officer) or a majority of the Board of Directors, and shall be called by the Corporation in the event that the holders of not less than ten percent (10%) of all of the votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at the proposed special meeting sign, date, and deliver to the Secretary one or more written demands for the meeting describing one or more purposes for which it is to be held. The Corporation shall give notice of such a special meeting within sixty (60) days after the date that the demands are delivered to the Corporation.

Section 2.3 <u>Place of Meeting</u>. The Board of Directors may designate any place, either within or without the State of Florida, as the place of meeting for any annual meeting of shareholders or for any special meeting of shareholders. The Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may determine that the annual meeting of shareholders or a special meeting of shareholders shall not be held at any place, but shall instead be held solely by means of remote communication as provided under Sections 607.0701, 607.0702 and 607.0709 of the Florida Business Corporation Act, as it may be amended from time to time, or any successor legislation thereto (the "<u>Act</u>"). If no designation is made, the place of meeting shall be the Corporation's principal office.

Section 2.4 <u>Notice of Meeting</u>.

(a) <u>Content and Delivery</u>.

(i) Notice of the place, if any, date, time, and means of remote communication, if any, of each annual and special meeting of shareholders shall be given by the Corporation not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. Notices of special meetings shall also specify the purpose or purposes for which the meeting has been called. Unless otherwise required by the Act or the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation:

------

(A) Notice of a shareholders' meeting need be given only to shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting; and

(B) Notices of annual meetings need not specify the purpose or purposes for which the meeting has been called.

(ii) Notices to shareholders must be in writing and may be communicated in person, by electronic means (in a manner authorized by the shareholder), or by mail or other method of delivery, in each case, by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Secretary, or the officer or persons calling the meeting. If mailed, the notice shall be effective when deposited in the United States mail addressed to the shareholder at the shareholder's address as it appears in the Corporation's shareholder records, with postage thereon prepaid.

(b) <u>Notice of Adjourned Meetings</u>. If an annual or special meeting of shareholders is adjourned to a different date, time or place, or to add or modify the terms of participation by remote communication, the Corporation shall not be required to give notice of the new date, time, place or terms of participation by remote communications if the new date, time, place or terms of participation by remote communications is announced at the meeting before adjournment; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if a new record date for an adjourned meeting is or must be fixed, the Corporation shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to persons who are shareholders as of the new record date who are entitled to notice of the meeting.

(c) <u>No Notice Under Certain Circumstances</u>. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 2.4, no notice of a meeting of shareholders need be given to a shareholder if: (i) an annual report and proxy statement for two consecutive annual meetings of shareholders, or (ii) all, and at least two, checks in payment of dividends or interest on securities during a twelve-month period have been sent by first-class, United States mail, addressed to the shareholder at his or her address as it appears on the share transfer books of the Corporation, and returned undeliverable. The obligation of the Corporation to give notice of a shareholders' meeting to any such shareholder shall be reinstated once the Corporation has received a new address for such shareholder for entry on its share transfer books.

Section 2.5 <u>Waiver of Notice</u>.

(a) <u>Written Waiver</u>. A shareholder may waive any notice required by the Act or these Bylaws before or after the date and time stated for the meeting in the notice. The waiver shall be in writing and signed by the shareholder entitled to the notice, and be delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records. Neither the business to be transacted at nor the purpose of any regular or special meeting of shareholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice.

(b) <u>Waiver by Attendance</u>. A shareholder's attendance at a meeting, whether physical or remote, in person or by proxy, waives objection to all of the following: (i) lack of notice or defective notice of the meeting, unless the shareholder at the beginning of the meeting objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting; and (ii) consideration of a particular matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in the meeting notice, unless the shareholder objects to considering the matter when it is presented.

Section 2.6 <u>Fixing of Record Date</u>.

(a) <u>General</u>. The Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of a shareholders' meeting, entitled to vote, or take any other action. In no event may a record date fixed by the Board of Directors be (i) a date preceding the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted or (ii) a date more than seventy (70) days before the date of meeting or action requiring a determination of shareholders.

(b) <u>Special Meeting</u>. The record date for determining shareholders entitled to demand a special meeting shall be the close of business on the date the first shareholder delivers his or her demand to the Corporation.

(c) <u>Absence of Board Determination for Shareholders' Meeting</u>. If the Board of Directors does not determine the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at an annual or special meeting of shareholders, such record date shall be the close of business on the day before the first notice with respect thereto is delivered to shareholders.

------

(d) <u>Adjourned Meeting</u>. A record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a shareholders' meeting is effective for any adjournment of the meeting unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date, which it must do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting.

Section 2.7 <u>Shareholders' List for Meetings</u>.

(a) <u>Preparation and Availability</u>. After a record date for a meeting of shareholders has been fixed, the Corporation shall prepare an alphabetical list of the names of all of the shareholders entitled to notice of the meeting (and, if the Board of Directors fixes a different record date to determine the shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting, an alphabetical list of the names of all shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting). The list shall be arranged by class or series of shares, if any, and show the address of and number of shares held by each shareholder. Such list shall be available for inspection by any shareholder for a period of ten days prior to the meeting or such shorter time as exists between the record date and the meeting date, and continuing through the meeting, at the Corporation's principal office, at a place identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held, or at the office of the Corporation's transfer agent or registrar, if any. A shareholder or his or her agent or attorney may, on written demand, inspect the list, subject to the requirements of the Act, during regular business hours and at his or her expense, during the period that it is available for inspection pursuant to this Section 2.7. The Corporation shall make the shareholders' list available at the meeting and any shareholder or his or her agent or attorney may inspect the list at any time during the meeting or any adjournment thereof.

(b) <u>Prima Facie Evidence</u>. The shareholders' list is prima facie evidence of the identity of shareholders entitled to examine the shareholders' list or to vote at a meeting of shareholders.

(c) <u>Failure to Comply</u>. If the requirements of this Section 2.7 have not been substantially complied with, or if the Corporation refuses to allow a shareholder or his or her agent or attorney to inspect the shareholders' list before or at the meeting, on the demand of any shareholder, in person or by proxy, who failed to get such access, the meeting shall be adjourned until such requirements are complied with.

(d) <u>Validity of Action Not Affected</u>. Refusal or failure to prepare or make available the shareholders' list shall not affect the validity of any action taken at a meeting of shareholders.

Section 2.8 <u>Conduct of Meetings by Remote Communication</u>. The Board of Directors may adopt guidelines and procedures for shareholders and proxy holders not physically present at an annual or special meeting of shareholders to participate in the meeting, be deemed present in person, vote, communicate and read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings, all by means of remote communication. The Board of Directors may adopt procedures and guidelines for the conduct of an annual or special meeting solely by means of remote communication rather than holding the meeting at a designated place.

Section 2.9 <u>Quorum</u>.

(a) <u>What Constitutes a Quorum</u>. Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on a matter at a meeting only if a quorum of those shares exists with respect to that matter. If the Corporation has only one class of stock outstanding, such class shall constitute a separate voting group for purposes of this Section 2.9. Except as otherwise provided in the Act, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter shall constitute a quorum of the voting group for action on that matter. After a quorum has been established at a shareholders' meeting, the subsequent withdrawal of shareholders, so as to reduce the number of shares entitled to vote at the meeting below the number required for a quorum, shall not affect the validity of any action taken at the meeting or any adjournment thereof.

(b) <u>Presence of Shares</u>. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting, other than for the purpose of objecting to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting, it is considered present for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists for the remainder of the meeting and for any adjournment of that meeting unless a new record date is or must be set for the adjourned meeting.

------

(c) <u>Adjournment in Absence of Quorum</u>. Where a quorum is not present, the holders of a majority of the shares represented and who would be entitled to vote at the meeting if a quorum were present may adjourn such meeting from time to time.

Section 2.10 <u>Voting Entitlement of Shares</u>.

(a) Unless the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation or the Act provide otherwise, each outstanding share, regardless of class, is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareholders. Only shares are entitled to vote.

(b) The shares of the Corporation are not entitled to vote if they are owned, directly or indirectly, by a second corporation, domestic or foreign, and the first corporation owns, directly or indirectly, a majority of shares entitled to vote for directors of the second corporation.

(c) This Section 2.10 does not limit the power of the Corporation to vote any shares, including its own shares, held by it in a fiduciary capacity.

(d) Redeemable shares are not entitled to vote on any matter, and shall not be deemed to be outstanding, after notice of redemption is mailed to the holders thereof and a sum sufficient to redeem such shares has been deposited with a bank, trust company, or other financial institution upon an irrevocable obligation to pay the holders the redemption price upon surrender of the shares.

(e) Shares standing in the name of another corporation, domestic or foreign, may be voted by such officer, agent, or proxy as the bylaws of the corporate shareholder may prescribe or, in the absence of any applicable provision, by such person as the Board of Directors of the corporate shareholder may designate. In the absence of any such designation or in case of conflicting designation by the corporate shareholder, the chairman of the board, the president, any vice president, the secretary, and the treasurer of the corporate shareholder, in that order, shall be presumed to be fully authorized to vote such shares.

(f) Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian, personal representative, or conservator may be voted by him or her, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into his or her name. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by him or her, either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by him or her without a transfer of such shares into his name or the name of his or her nominee.

(g) Shares held by or under the control of a receiver, a trustee in bankruptcy proceedings, or an assignee for the benefit of creditors may be voted by him or her without the transfer thereof into his or her name.

(h) If a share or shares stand of record in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety, or otherwise, or if two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary of the Corporation is given notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, then acts with respect to voting have the following effect:

(i) If only one votes, in person or in proxy, his or her act binds all;

(ii) If more than one vote, in person or by proxy, the act of the majority so voting binds all;

(iii) If more than one vote, in person or by proxy, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction is entitled to vote the share or shares in question proportionally;

(iv) If the instrument or order so filed shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interest, a majority or a vote evenly split for purposes of this subsection shall be a majority or a vote evenly split in interest;

(v) The principles of this subsection shall apply, insofar as possible, to execution of proxies, waivers, consents, or objections and for the purpose of ascertaining the presence of a quorum;

(vi) Subject to Section 2.10(i), nothing herein contained shall prevent trustees or other fiduciaries holding shares registered in the name of a nominee from causing such shares to be voted by such nominee as the trustee or other fiduciary may direct. Such nominee may vote shares as directed by a trustee or their fiduciary without the necessity of transferring the shares to the name of the trustee or other fiduciary.

------

(i) The Corporation may establish a procedure by which the beneficial owner of shares that are registered in the name of a nominee is recognized by the Corporation as the shareholder. The extent of this recognition may be determined in the procedure. The procedure may set forth (a) the types of nominees to which it applies; (b) the rights or privileges that the Corporation recognizes in a beneficial owner; (c) the manner in which the procedure is selected by the nominee; (d) the information that must be provided when the procedure is selected; (e) the period for which selection of the procedure is effective; and (f) other aspects of the rights and duties created.

Section 2.11 <u>Vote Required</u>.

(a) <u>Matters Other Than Election of Directors</u>. If a quorum exists, except in the case of the election of directors, action on a matter shall be approved if the votes cast favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the Act or the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation require a greater number of affirmative votes.

(b) <u>Election of Directors</u>.

(i) Each shareholder who is entitled to vote at an election of directors has the right to vote the number of shares owned by him or her for as many persons as there are directors to be elected. Shareholders do not have a right to cumulate their votes for directors.

(ii) Unless otherwise provided in the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation, each director to be elected shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors at an annual meeting or special meeting of shareholders at which a quorum is present.

Section 2.12 <u>Conduct of Meeting</u>. The Chairman of the Board, and in his or her absence, the Vice Chairman (if any), and in his or her absence, the Chief Executive Officer, and in his or her absence, the President, and in his or her absence, a Vice President, and in his or her absence, any person chosen by the shareholders present shall call a shareholders' meeting to order and shall act as presiding officer of the meeting, and the Secretary of the Corporation shall act as secretary of all meetings of the shareholders, but, in the absence of the Secretary, the presiding officer may appoint any other person to act as secretary of the meeting. The presiding officer of the meeting shall have broad discretion in determining the order of business at a shareholders' meeting. The presiding officer's authority to conduct the meeting shall include, but in no way be limited to, recognizing shareholders entitled to speak, calling for the necessary reports, stating questions and putting them to a vote, calling for nominations, and announcing the results of voting. The presiding officer also shall take such actions as are necessary and appropriate to preserve order at the meeting. The rules of parliamentary procedure need not be observed in the conduct of shareholders' meetings; however, meetings shall be conducted in accordance with accepted usage and common practice with fair treatment to all who are entitled to take part.

Section 2.13 <u>Proxies</u>.

(a) <u>Appointment</u>. At all meetings of shareholders, a shareholder or attorney- in-fact for a shareholder may vote the shareholder's shares in person or by proxy. If an appointment form expressly provides, any proxy holder may appoint, in writing, a substitute to act in his or her place. A shareholder or attorney-in-fact for a shareholder may appoint a proxy to vote or otherwise act for the shareholder by signing an appointment form or by electronic transmission. As provided by Section 607.0722 of the Act, any type of electronic transmission appearing to have been, or containing or accompanied by such information or obtained under such procedures to reasonably ensure that the electronic transmission was, transmitted or authorized by such person is a sufficient appointment, subject to the verification requested by the Corporation under Section 2.15 of these Bylaws and Section 607.0724 of the Act. The appointment may be signed by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, facsimile or electronic signature. Any copy, facsimile transmission or other reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission of the appointment may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or electronic transmission for any purpose for which the original writing or electronic transmission could be used if the copy, facsimile transmission or other reproduction is a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or electronic transmission.

(b) <u>When Effective</u>. An appointment of a proxy is effective when received by the Secretary or other officer or agent of the Corporation authorized to tabulate votes. An appointment is valid for up to eleven (11) months unless a longer or shorter period is expressly provided in the appointment form. An appointment of a proxy is revocable by the shareholder unless the appointment form conspicuously states that it is irrevocable and the appointment is coupled with an interest.

------

Section 2.14 <u>Advance Notice of Shareholder Nominations and Proposals</u>.

(a) <u>Annual Meetings</u>. At a meeting of the shareholders, only such nominations of persons for the election of directors and such other business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting.

(c) <u>Other Shareholder Proposals</u>. For all business other than director nominations, a Proposing Shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the Proposing Shareholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting:

(vii) the information required by Section 2.14(b)(vi) above.

(d) <u>Special Meetings of Shareholders</u>. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of shareholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of shareholders called by the Board of Directors at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting:

(i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors; or

(ii) provided that the Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any shareholder of the Corporation who is a shareholder of record at the time the notice provided for in this Section 2.14(d) is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting, and upon such election and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.14.

In the event the Corporation calls a special meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such shareholder entitled to vote in such election of directors may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the Corporation's notice of meeting, if such shareholder delivers a shareholder's notice that complies with the requirements of Section 2.14(b) to the Secretary at the Corporation's principal office not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of: (x) the 90th day prior to such special meeting; or (y) the tenth (10th) day following the date of the first Public Disclosure of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting.

Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, unless otherwise required by law, if a Proposing Shareholder intending to propose business or make nominations at an annual meeting or propose a nomination at a special meeting pursuant to this Section 2.14 does not provide the information required under this Section 2.14 to the Corporation, including the updated information required by Section 2.14(b)(vi)(B), Section 2.14(b)(vi)(C) and Section 2.14(b)(vi)(D) within five (5) business days after the record date for such meeting or the Proposing Shareholder (or a qualified representative of the Proposing Shareholder) does not appear at the meeting to present the proposed business or nominations, such business or nominations shall not be considered, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such business or nominations may have been received by the Corporation.

------

(f) <u>Rule 14a-8</u>. This Section 2.14 shall not apply to a proposal proposed to be made by a shareholder if the shareholder has notified the Corporation of the shareholder's intention to present the proposal at an annual or special meeting only pursuant to and in compliance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and such proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for such meeting.

Section 2.15 <u>Acceptance of Instruments Showing Shareholder Action</u>. If the name signed on a vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment corresponds to the name of a shareholder, the Corporation, if acting in good faith, may accept the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment and give it effect as the act of a shareholder. If the name signed on a vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment does not correspond to the name of a shareholder, the Corporation, if acting in good faith, may accept the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment and give it effect as the act of the shareholder if any of the following apply:

(a) The shareholder is an entity and the name signed purports to be that of an officer or agent of the entity;

(b) The name signed purports to be that of an administrator, executor, guardian, personal representative, or conservator representing the shareholder and, if the Corporation requests, evidence of fiduciary status acceptable to the Corporation is presented with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment;

(c) The name signed purports to be that of a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, or assignee for the benefit of creditors of the shareholder and, if the Corporation requests, evidence of this status acceptable to the Corporation is presented with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment;

(d) The name signed purports to be that of a pledgee, beneficial owner, or attorney-in-fact of the shareholder and, if the Corporation requests, evidence acceptable to the Corporation of the signatory's authority to sign for the shareholder is presented with respect to the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment; or

(e) Two or more persons are the shareholder as co-tenants or fiduciaries and the name signed purports to be the name of at least one of the co-owners and the person signing appears to be acting on behalf of all co-owners.

The Corporation may reject a vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment if the Secretary or other officer or agent of the Corporation who is authorized to tabulate votes, acting in good faith, has reasonable basis for doubt about the validity of the signature on it or about the signatory's authority to sign for the shareholder.
