**ARTICLE 3 <br>PURPOSE**

The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (the "**DGCL**").

**ARTICLE 4 <br>CAPITAL STOCK**

Section 1 *Authorized Capital Stock*. The total number of shares of capital stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 750,000,000 shares of which (i) 700,000,000 shares shall be a class designated as common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "**Common Stock**"), and (ii) 50,000,000 shares shall be a class designated as undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "**Preferred Sto**ck"). Except as otherwise provided in any certificate of designation of any series of undesignated Preferred Stock, the number of authorized shares of the class of Common Stock or Preferred Stock may from time to time be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares of such class outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

Section 2 *Preferred Stock*. The Board of Directors is hereby empowered, without any action or vote by the Corporation's stockholders (except as may otherwise be provided by the terms of any class or series of Preferred Stock then outstanding), to authorize by resolution or resolutions from time to time the issuance of one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, with respect to each such class or series of Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting each such class or series, and to increase or decrease the number of shares of any such class or series to the extent permitted by the DGCL.

Section 3 *Voting Rights*. Each holder of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held of record by such holder. Each holder of Common Stock shall be entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders in accordance with the bylaws of the Corporation as in effect at the time in question (the "**Bylaws**") and applicable law on all matters put to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation; *provided, however,* that, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any class or series of Preferred Stock then outstanding) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding classes or series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected class or series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such classes or series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any class or series of Preferred Stock then outstanding) or pursuant to the DGCL.

Section 2 *Number of Directors*.

Section 3 *Election of Directors*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All of the directors will be elected annually at the annual meeting of stockholders.

Section 2 *Right to Indemnification*. The Corporation shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law, as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or serves or served at any other enterprise as a director or officer at the request of the Corporation. Any amendment, repeal, or modification of this Section 7.2 shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification. The Corporation may, by action of the Board, provide rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to such other employees or agents of the Corporation or its subsidiaries (and any other persons to which the DGCL permits the Corporation to provide indemnification) through Bylaw provision, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL.

Section 3 *Insurance*. The Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of such person's status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the DGCL.

Section 4 *Nonexclusivity of Rights*. The rights and authority conferred in this Article 7 shall not be exclusive of any other right that any person may otherwise have or hereafter acquire.

Section 5 *Preservation of Rights*. Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Article 7, nor the adoption of any provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate Incorporation or the Bylaws, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, any modification of law, shall adversely affect any right or protection of any person granted pursuant hereto existing at, or arising out of or related to any event, act or omission that occurred prior to, the time of such amendment, repeal, adoption or modification (regardless of when any proceeding (or part thereof) relating to such event, act or omission arises or is first threatened, commenced or completed).

**ARTICLE 8 <br>FORUM SELECTION**

Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the 1933 Act.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article 8.

If any provision or provisions of this Article 8 shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article 8 (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article 8 containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

**ARTICLE 9 <br>AMENDMENTS OF CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS**

Section 1 *Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation.* Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or any provision of law which might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, but in addition to any affirmative vote of the holders of any particular class or series of the Corporation required by law or by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or any certificate of designation filed with respect to a class or series of Preferred Stock that may be designated from time to time, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend, or repeal, by merger, consolidation, or otherwise, Articles 5, 6, 7, 8 and this Article 9.

Section 2 *Amendment of Bylaws*. The Board of Directors is expressly empowered to adopt, amend, or repeal the Bylaws. Any adoption, amendment, or repeal of the Bylaws by the Board of Directors shall require the approval of a majority of the directors then in office. The stockholders shall also have power to adopt, amend, or repeal the Bylaws; *provided, however,* that, in addition to any affirmative vote of the holders of any particular class or series of the Corporation required by law or by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or any certificate of designation filed with respect to a series of Preferred Stock that may be designated from time to time, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.
