The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series.

The Board of Directors is hereby authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law and the provisions of this Article FOURTH, by resolution to provide for the issuance of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, privileges, preferences and relative participating, optional or other rights, if any, of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof.

FIFTH: The Corporation is to have perpetual existence.

SIXTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between this Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of this Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the indebtedness held by such creditors or class of creditors, and/or three-fourths of the shares held by the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of this Corporation as consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of this Corporation, as the case may be, and also on the Corporation.

SEVENTH:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The management of the business and conduct of the affairs of the Corporation shall be vested in its Board of Directors. The number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the By-Laws. The Board of Directors shall be classified and divided into three classes, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. The terms of office of the initial Class I directors shall expire at the first annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation after the election of such initial Class I directors, the terms of office of the initial Class II directors shall expire at the second annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation after the election of such initial Class II directors and the terms of office of the initial Class III directors shall expire at the third annual meeting after the election of such initial Class III directors. At each annual meeting following such classification and division of the members of the Board of Directors, a number of directors equal to the number of directorships in the class the term of which expires at the time of such meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation. Each director shall hold office for the class term for which he is elected and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death. Any director may be removed for cause (but not without cause) from office at any time by the vote or written consent of the stockholders. In case of any increase or decrease, from time to time, in the number of directors constituting the whole Board of Directors, the number of directors in each class shall be determined by action of the Board of Directors. A director elected by the remainder of the Board of Directors to fill a vacancy shall hold office for the remaining term of the predecessor director and until his or her successor is elected and has qualified, or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or death.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Board of Directors shall have the power without the assent or vote of the stockholders:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To make, alter, amend, change, add to or repeal the By-Laws of the Corporation; to fix and vary the amount to be reserved for any proper purpose; to authorize and cause to be executed mortgages and liens upon all or any part of the property of the Corporation; to determine the use and disposition of any surplus or net profits; and to fix the times for the declaration and payment of dividends.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) To determine from time to time whether, and at what times and places, and under what conditions the accounts and books of the Corporation (other than the stock ledger) or any of them, shall be open to the inspection of the stockholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In addition to the powers and authorities hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation; subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, of this Certificate, and to any By-Laws from time to time made by the stockholders; provided, however, that no By-Laws so made shall invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have been valid if such By-Laws had not been made.

EIGHTH:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The personal liability of the directors of the Corporation is hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented from time to time, and, in accordance therewith, no director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Corporation may indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law 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 he, his testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or any predecessor or subsidiary of the Corporation or serves or served at any other enterprise as a director, officer or employee at the request of the Corporation or any predecessor or subsidiary of the Corporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Neither any amendment nor repeal of this Article EIGHTH, nor the adoption of any provision of the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article EIGHTH, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article EIGHTH with respect to any matter occurring, or any action or proceeding accruing or arising or that, but for this Article EIGHTH, would accrue or arise, prior to such amendment, repeal, or adoption of an inconsistent provision.

NINTH: From time to time any of the provisions of the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation may be amended, altered, or repealed, and other provisions authorized by the laws of the State of Delaware at the time in force may be added or inserted as prescribed by said laws, and all rights at any time conferred upon the stockholders of the Corporation by this Certificate of Incorporation are granted subject to the provisions of this Article NINTH.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned hereby executes this document and affirms that the facts set forth herein are true under the penalties of perjury this 22nd day of March, 2023.
