ARTICLE III

DIRECTORS

SECTION 1. The Board of Directors shall manage the business of the Corporation and shall have and may exercise all the powers of the Corporation except in cases where such power is reserved to the Stockholders by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws.

SECTION 2. The number of directors which shall constitute the entire Board of Directors shall be such number, not less than three nor more than fifteen, as shall be determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with Article FIFTH of the Certificate of Incorporation. As used in these By-Laws, the term “entire Board of Directors” means the total number of directors which the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies.

SECTION 3. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these By-Laws, the directors shall be elected at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders by written ballot, and shall serve for such term as may be provided in the Certificate of Incorporation. For the avoidance of doubt, commencing with the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2021, all directors shall be elected for one-year terms expiring at the next Annual meeting of Stockholders. Each director nominee shall be elected by the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast with respect to the nominee at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, provided that if as of a date that is 14 days in advance of the date the corporation files its definitive proxy statement (regardless of whether or not thereafter revised or supplemented) with the Securities and Exchange Commission the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast by Stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at any such meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. For purposes of this Section 3, a majority of the votes cast means that the number of shares voted “for” a nominee’s election must exceed the number of votes cast “against” that nominee’s election. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes for or against any nominee. If directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes cast, Stockholders shall not be permitted to vote against a nominee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if authorized by the Board of Directors, the election of directors may be, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission or by such other means as may be permitted from time to time by law.

SECTION 4. Any of the directors may be removed and the resulting vacancy filled only in accordance with Article FIFTH of the Certificate of Incorporation.

SECTION 2. The signatures of the officers of the Corporation or the officers of the transfer agent or registrar upon a certificate may be facsimiles. If any such officer who has signed, or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate, shall cease to be such officer before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer at the date of its issue.

SECTION 3. The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate to be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Corporation or, if the issuance of uncertificated shares has been duly authorized for the relevant class or series, uncertificated shares to be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost or destroyed. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate, the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may prescribe such terms and conditions precedent to the issuance of the new certificate or uncertificated shares as it deems expedient, and may require such indemnities as it deems adequate to protect the Corporation from any claim that may be made against it with respect to any certificate alleged to have been lost or destroyed.

SECTION 4. Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of the Corporation of a certificate representing shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of lawful succession, assignment or authority to transfer, a new certificate shall be issued to the person entitled thereto, and the old certificate cancelled and the transaction recorded upon the books of the Corporation or, if the issuance of uncertificated shares has been duly authorized for the class or series represented by such surrendered certificate, uncertificated shares shall be issued to the person entitled thereto, the old certificate shall be cancelled, and the transaction shall be recorded upon the books of the Corporation.

SECTION 5. The Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for determination of the Stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Stockholders, or to receive payment of any dividend or allotment of any rights, or to take or be the subject of any other action. Such date shall be not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of such meeting nor more than sixty days prior to any other action. If no record date is so fixed, the record date shall be as provided by law. When a determination of Stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Stockholders has been made as provided in this Section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

SECTION 6. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends, and to vote as such owner, and the Corporation shall be entitled to hold a person registered on its books as the owner of shares liable for calls and assessments, if any may legally be made, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in shares of its stock on the part of any other person, whether or not the Corporation shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 1. A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, Liability of Directors for Unlawful Payment of Dividend or Unlawful Stock Purchase or Redemption, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

SECTION 2. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, 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 or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action or inaction in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any

 

6


other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, except as provided in this Section 2, the Corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 2 shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition as authorized by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that, if the Delaware General Corporation Law requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation in his or her capacity as such in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized by this Section.

SECTION 3. If a claim under subparagraph (b)(1) is not paid in full by the Corporation within 30 days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct that makes it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

SECTION 4. The indemnification rights provided by this Article, including the right to right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition, shall be considered a contract between the Corporation and such person, and no modification or repeal of such indemnification rights, nor the adoption of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws of the Corporation, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, any modification of law, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of the indemnification rights in respect of any acts or failure to act occurring before such modification, repeal or adoption.

SECTION 5. The indemnification rights provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity, and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.

SECTION 6. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of itself or any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and 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 provisions of the Article.

 

7


SECTION 7. The provisions of this Article shall be deemed retroactive and shall provide all indemnity provided by the other sections of this Article IX for all acts and omissions of the officers and directors of the Corporation since the date of incorporation.

ARTICLE X

Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in the shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 4.
