The date and time of the annual meeting may subsequently be changed in the same manner as is required to fix the original date and time of the annual meeting.

In addition, for proposals of business to be properly brought before a special meeting, they must (i) relate to an item of business that is a proper subject for shareholder action under the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, the PBCL and other applicable law; and (ii) not be expressly reserved for action by the Board of Directors under the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, the PBCL or other applicable law.

In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting, or the public announcement thereof, commence a new time period for the giving of a shareholder’s notice as described above. For purposes of these Bylaws, “public disclosure” or its corollary “publicly disclosed” shall mean disclosure by the Company in (i) a document publicly filed by the Company with, or furnished by the Company to, the SEC pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, (ii) a press release issued by the Company and distributed through a nationally recognized press release dissemination service, or (iii) another method reasonably intended by the Company to achieve broad-based dissemination of the information contained therein.

For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation to update and supplement as set forth in this paragraph or any other Section of these Bylaws shall not limit the Company’s rights with respect to any deficiencies in any notice provided by a shareholder, extend any applicable deadlines hereunder or under any other provision of the Bylaws or enable or be deemed to permit a shareholder who has previously submitted notice hereunder or under any other provision of the Bylaws to amend or update any proposal or to submit any new proposal, including by changing or adding nominees, matters, business and or resolutions proposed to be brought before a meeting of the shareholders.

(b)            Special Meetings of Shareholders. Subject to Section 1.9(d)(viii) of these Bylaws, in the event the Company calls a special meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any shareholder meeting the requirements set forth in Section 1.8(b) hereof may nominate an individual or individuals (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the Company’s notice of meeting, provided that the shareholder gives timely notice of such nomination (including the notice of nomination contemplated by Section 1.9(d) of these Bylaws and the completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement required by Section 1.10 of these Bylaws), and timely updates and supplements thereof in each case in proper form, in writing, to the Secretary of the Company.

6 

To be timely, a shareholder’s notice pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be delivered to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120^th) calendar day prior to the date of such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (x) the ninetieth (90^th) calendar day prior to the date of such special meeting and (y) if the first public disclosure by the Company of the date of such special meeting is less than one hundred (100) calendar days prior to the date of such special meeting, the tenth (10^th) calendar day following the day on which public disclosure is first made by the Company of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting. In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of a special meeting of shareholders, or the public announcement thereof, commence a new time period for the giving of a shareholder’s notice as described above. In addition, to be considered timely, a shareholder’s notice pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph shall further be updated and supplemented, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice shall be true and correct as of the record date for the meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to 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 the meeting in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date, and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting or any adjournment or postponement 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 adjournment or postponement thereof.

(3)            As to each individual, if any, whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election to the Board of Directors, a shareholder’s notice must, in addition to the matters set forth in Section 1.9(d)(i)(1) above, also set forth: (i) all information relating to such individual that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Section 1.9(d)(i)(1) above if such individual was the shareholder giving the advance notice of nomination to the Company, (ii) all information relating to such individual that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including such individual’s written and executed consent to being named in the proxy statement of such proposing shareholder as a nominee of such proposing shareholder and to serving as a director of the Company if elected), (iii) a reasonably detailed description of all direct and indirect compensation, reimbursement, indemnification and other benefits (whether monetary or non-monetary) agreements, arrangements and understandings (whether written or oral and formal or informal) during the past three (3) years, and any other relationships, between or among such shareholder and beneficial owner, if any, and their respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith (naming each such person or entity), on the one hand, and each proposed nominee, and any respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith (naming each such person or entity), on the other hand, (iv) to the extent that such proposed nominee has been convicted of any past criminal offenses involving dishonesty or a breach of trust or duty, a description in reasonable detail of such offense and all legal proceedings relating thereto, (v) to the extent that such proposed nominee has been determined by any governmental authority or self-regulatory organization to have violated any federal or state securities or commodities laws, including but not limited to, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act or the Commodity Exchange Act, a description in reasonable detail of such violation and all legal proceedings relating thereto, (vi) to the extent that such proposed nominee has ever been suspended or barred by any governmental authority or self-regulatory organization from engaging in any profession or participating in any industry, or has otherwise been subject to a disciplinary action by a governmental authority or self-regulatory organization that provides oversight over the proposed nominee’s current or past profession or an industry that the proposed nominee has participated in, a description in reasonable detail of such action and the reasons therefor, (vii) a description in reasonable detail of any and all litigation, whether or not judicially resolved, settled or dismissed, relating to the proposed nominee’s past or current service on the board of directors (or similar governing body) of any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, trust or any other entity where a legal complaint filed in any state or federal court located within the United States alleges that the proposed nominee committed any act constituting (1) a breach of fiduciary duties, (2) misconduct, (3) fraud, (4) breaches of confidentiality obligations, and/or (5) a breach of the entity’s code of conduct applicable to directors, and (viii) all other information that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Items 403 and 404 under Regulation S-K or any successor provision promulgated under Regulation S-K if the shareholder making the nomination and any beneficial owner on whose behalf the nomination is made, if any, or any affiliate or associate thereof or person acting in concert therewith, were the “registrant” for purposes of such Item and the proposed nominee were a director or executive officer of such registrant; and

10 

(4)            With respect to each individual, if any, whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election to the Board of Directors, a shareholder’s notice must, in addition to the matters set forth in Section 1.9(d)(i)(1) and Section 1.9(d)(i)(3) above, also include such proposed nominee’s (A) statement that the nominee intends to comply with all applicable corporate governance and other policies and guidelines of the Company applicable to directors and in effect during such person’s term in office as a director, including, without limitation, the election policy set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Principles, and (B) completed and executed questionnaire, representation and agreement as required by Section 1.10 of these Bylaws. The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the Company or that could be material to a reasonable shareholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws, including, without limitation, Section 1.8 and this Section 1.9 hereof, shall be eligible for election as directors.

(ii)          Upon written request by the Secretary of the Company, the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof, any shareholder submitting a shareholder notice proposing a nomination or other business for consideration at a 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 shareholder notice delivered pursuant to the requirements of the Bylaws (including, if requested, written confirmation by such shareholder that it continues to intend to bring the nomination or other business proposed in the shareholder 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 may be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with the requirements of the Bylaws.

(iii)          For a shareholder notice to comply with the requirements of this Section 1.9, each of the requirements of this Section 1.9 shall be directly and expressly responded to and a shareholder notice must clearly indicate and expressly reference which provisions of this Section 1.9 the information disclosed is intended to be responsive to. Information disclosed in one section of the shareholder notice in response to one provision of this Section 1.9 shall not be deemed responsive to any other provision of this Section 1.9 unless it is expressly cross-referenced to such other provision and it is clearly apparent how the information included in one section of the shareholder notice is directly and expressly responsive to the information required to be included in another section of the shareholder notice pursuant to this Section 1.9. 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 1.9 shall be disregarded and shall not satisfy the requirements of this Section 1.9.

11 

(iv)         For a shareholder notice to comply with the requirements of this Section 1.9, it must set forth in writing directly within the body of the shareholder notice (as opposed to being incorporated by reference from any other document or writing not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these Bylaws) all the information required to be included therein as set forth in this Section 1.9 and each of the requirements of this Section 1.9 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 1.9. For the avoidance of doubt, a shareholder notice shall not be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 1.9 if it attempts to include the required information by incorporating by reference into the body of the shareholder 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 Bylaws. For the further avoidance of doubt, the body of the shareholder notice shall not include any documents that are not prepared solely in response to the requirements of these Bylaws.

(v)         A shareholder submitting a shareholder notice, by its delivery to the Company, represents and warrants that all information contained therein, as of the deadline for submitting the shareholder notice, 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 1.9 by any shareholder proposing a nomination or other business for consideration at a meeting shall not be true, correct and complete in all respects prior to the deadline for submitting the shareholder notice, such information may be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 1.9.

(vi)         Notwithstanding any notice of the meeting sent to shareholders on behalf of, or any proxy statement filed by, the Company, a shareholder must separately comply with this Section 1.9 to propose a nomination or other business at any meeting and is still required to deliver its own separate and timely shareholder notice to the Secretary of the Company prior to the deadline for submitting a shareholder notice that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section 1.9. For the avoidance of doubt, 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 1.9 and deliver, prior to the deadline for submitting the shareholder notice, its own separate and timely shareholder notice to the Secretary of the Company that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section 1.9.

(vii)        Notwithstanding the provisions of these Bylaws, a shareholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations thereunder and any other requirements of the SEC, the PBCL and other applicable law with respect to the matters set forth in these Bylaws, any solicitation of proxies contemplated by any notices delivered pursuant to these Bylaws and any filings required to be made with the SEC in connection therewith; provided, however, that any references in these Bylaws to the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit the separate and additional requirements set forth in these Bylaws with respect to nominations or proposals as to any other business to be considered.

12 

(viii)       Nothing in this Section 1.9 shall be deemed to affect any rights (i) of shareholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Company’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or (ii) of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock if and to the extent provided for under the PBCL, any other applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws. Subject to Rules 14a-8 and 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, nothing in this Section 1.9 shall be construed to permit any shareholder, or give any shareholder the right, to include or have disseminated or described in the Company’s proxy statement any nomination of director or directors or any other business proposal.

(ix)         For purposes of these Bylaws, a person shall be deemed to be “acting in concert” with another person if such persons are acting as a “group” as defined in Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act.

1.10          SUBMISSION OF QUESTIONNAIRE, REPRESENTATION AND AGREEMENT. To be eligible to be a nominee for election or re-election as a director of the Company, a person nominated by a shareholder for election or re-election to the Board of Directors must deliver (in accordance with the time periods prescribed for delivery of an advance notice of nominations pursuant to Section 1.9 of these Bylaws) to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company a written questionnaire with respect to the background and qualification of such individual and the background of any other person or entity on whose behalf, directly or indirectly, the nomination is being made (which questionnaire shall be provided by the Secretary of the Company upon written request), and a written representation and agreement (in the form provided by the Secretary of the Company upon written request) that such individual (A) is not and will not become a party to (1) any agreement, arrangement or understanding (written or oral) with, and has not given any commitment or assurance (written or oral) to, any person or entity as to how such person, if elected as a director of the Company, will act or vote on any issue or question (a “Voting Commitment”) that has not been expressly disclosed in writing to the Company, or (2) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such individual’s ability to comply, if elected as a director of the Company, with such individual’s fiduciary duties under applicable law, (B) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding (written or oral) with any person or entity other than the Company with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification in connection with service or action as a director that has not been expressly disclosed therein, (C) is not a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding (written or oral) with any person or entity, that contemplates such person resigning as a member of the Board of Directors prior to the conclusion of the term of office to which such person was elected, and has not given any commitment or assurance (written or oral) to any person or entity that such person intends to, or if asked by such person or entity would, resign as a member of the Board of Directors prior to the end of the conclusion of the term of office to which such person was elected, except as expressly disclosed therein, (D) has expressly disclosed therein whether all or any portion of securities of the Company were purchased with any financial assistance provided by any other person and whether any other person has any interest in such securities, (E) in such individual’s personal capacity and on behalf of any person or entity on whose behalf, directly or indirectly, the nomination is being made, would be in compliance, if elected as a director of the Company, and will comply, with all applicable code of ethics and/or business conduct, corporate governance, conflicts of interest, confidentiality, public disclosures, hedging and pledging policies relating to the Company’s securities, and stock ownership and stock trading policies and guidelines of the Company that are adopted and publicly disclosed from time to time, (F) consents to being named as a nominee of the proposing shareholder in the proposing shareholder’s proxy statement and agrees to serve as a member of the Board of Directors if elected as a director, and (G) will abide by all applicable corporate governance and other policies and guidelines of the Company applicable to directors and in effect during such person’s term in office as a director, including, without limitation, the Company’s Corporate Governance Principles.

1.11          SHAREHOLDER REQUESTED SPECIAL MEETINGS.

(a)            No shareholder may request that the Secretary of the Company call a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting unless a shareholder of record of the Company has first submitted a request in writing (“Record Date Request Notice”) that the Board of Directors fix a record date (a “Request Record Date”) for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to request that the Secretary of the Company call a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting, which Record Date Request Notice shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company.

(b)            Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of a Record Date Request Notice in compliance with this Section 1.11 from any shareholder of record, the Board of Directors may adopt a resolution fixing a Request Record Date for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to request that the Secretary of the Company call a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting, which date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the Request Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no resolution fixing a Request 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 Request Record Date was received, the Request Record Date in respect thereof shall be deemed to be the twentieth (20th) calendar day after the date on which such a request is received.

(c)            In order for a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting to be called, one or more written request or requests to call a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting (each, a “Special Meeting Request” and collectively, the “Special Meeting Requests”), must be in proper written form and must be signed by shareholders who, as of the Request Record Date, hold of record or beneficially, in the aggregate, the Requisite Percentage and must be timely delivered to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company. To be timely, a Special Meeting Request must be delivered to the principal executive offices of the Company not later than the sixtieth (60th) calendar day following the Request Record Date. In determining whether a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting has been properly requested, multiple Special Meeting Requests delivered to the Secretary of the Company will be considered together only if (i) each Special Meeting Request identifies the same purpose or purposes of the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting and the same matters proposed to be acted on at such meeting (in each case as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors), and (ii) such Special Meeting Requests have been dated and delivered to the Secretary of the Company within sixty (60) calendar days of the earliest dated Special Meeting Request.

14 

(d)            In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 1.11(c), to be in proper form for purposes of this Section 1.11, a Special Meeting Request must include and set forth a description of (i) the specific purpose or purposes of the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting, (ii) the matter(s) proposed to be acted on at the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting, and (iii) the reasons for conducting such business at the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting. Shareholders seeking to propose candidates for election to the Board of Directors at a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting where the election of directors is a matter specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling such Shareholder Requested Special Meeting in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2 of these Bylaws and this Section 1.11 must also comply with the requirements set forth in Section 1.9 of these Bylaws for providing a timely and proper written notice for the proposal of candidates for election as directors.

(e)            A shareholder may revoke a Special Meeting Request by written revocation delivered to the Secretary of the Company at any time prior to the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting. If any such revocation(s) are received by the Secretary of the Company after the Secretary’s receipt of Special Meeting Requests from 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 Shareholder Requested Special Meeting, then the Board of Directors shall have the discretion to determine whether or not to proceed with the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting.

(f)            The Secretary of the Company shall not accept, and shall consider ineffective, a Special Meeting Request if such Special Meeting Request does not comply with this Section 1.11 or relates to an item of business to be transacted at the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting that either (i) is not a proper subject for shareholder action under the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, the PBCL or other applicable law, or (ii) is expressly reserved for action by the Board of Directors under the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws, the PBCL or other applicable law

(g)            If none of the shareholders who submitted and signed the Special Meeting Request appears in person at the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting or sends a qualified representative to the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting to present the matters to be presented for consideration that were specified in the Special Meeting Request (unless the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting is held by means of remote communication in which case the requesting shareholder or its qualified representative shall be present by means of remote communication), the Company need not present such matters for a vote at such meeting.

(h)            After Special Meeting Requests have been received on a timely basis, in proper form and in accordance with this Section 1.11 from a shareholder or shareholders holding the Requisite Percentage, the Secretary of the Company shall duly call, and determine the place, date and time of, a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting for the purpose or purposes and to conduct the business specified in the Special Meeting Requests received by the Company; provided, however that the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting shall be held within sixty (60) calendar days after the Company receives one or more valid Special Meeting Requests in compliance with this Section 1.11 from shareholders holding at least the Requisite Percentage. If the Secretary of the Company neglects or refuses to fix the date of such Shareholder Requested Special Meeting and give the notice of meeting required by Section 1.4 of these Bylaws, then the shareholder or shareholders making the request for the Shareholder Requested Special Meeting may do so.

15 

(i)            The record date for notice and voting for such a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting shall be fixed in accordance with Section 1.7 of these Bylaws.

(j)            The Board of Directors shall provide written notice of such Shareholder Requested Special Meeting in accordance with Section 1.4 of these Bylaws. The business brought before any Shareholder Requested Special Meeting by shareholders shall be limited to the matters proposed in the valid Special Meeting Request; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the Board of Directors from bringing other matters before the shareholders at any Shareholder Requested Special Meeting and including such matters in the notice of the special meeting it provides to shareholders. Notwithstanding any notice of the special meeting sent to shareholders on behalf of the Company, a shareholder must separately comply with this Section 1.11 to conduct business at any Shareholder Requested Special Meeting. If the business proposed by a shareholder to be brought before a Shareholder Requested Special Meeting is the same or relates to business brought by the Company and included in the Company’s notice for such Shareholder Requested Special Meeting, the shareholder is nevertheless still required to comply with this Section 1.11 and deliver its own separate, timely and proper Special Meeting Request to the Secretary of the Company that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section 1.11.

(k)            Except in accordance with this Section 1.11 and except as provided in Section 1.8(b) of these Bylaws with respect to a shareholder’s ability to propose candidates for election as directors at a special meeting of shareholders where 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 the provisions of Section 1.2 of these Bylaws, shareholders shall not be permitted to propose business to be brought before a special meeting of shareholders.

1.12          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 of Directors may be canceled, by resolution of the Board of Directors upon public notice given prior to the time previously scheduled for such meeting of shareholders.

1.13          ORGANIZATION. Meetings of shareholders shall be presided over by such person as the Board of Directors may designate as Chair of the meeting, or in the absence of such a person, the Chair of the Board of Directors, or if none, or in the Chair of the Board of Directors’ absence or inability to act, the Chief Executive Officer, or if none, or in the Chief Executive Officer’s absence or inability to act, the President, or if none, or in the President’s absence or inability to act, a Vice President, or, if none of the foregoing is present or able to act, by a Chair to be chosen by the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote who are present in person or by proxy at the meeting. The Secretary of the Company, or in the Secretary’s absence, an Assistant Secretary, shall act as secretary of every meeting, but if neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary is present, the presiding officer of the meeting shall appoint any person present to act as secretary of the meeting. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of shareholders as it shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and regulations of the Board of Directors, if any, the Chair of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such Chair, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, establishing an agenda or order of business for the meeting, rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, limitations on participation in the meeting to shareholders of record of the Company, their duly authorized and constituted proxies and such other persons as the Chair shall permit, restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof, appointing inspectors of election, limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants and regulation of the opening and closing of the polls for balloting and matters which are to be voted on by ballot.

ARTICLE II
DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

2.1            NUMBER. The Board of Directors shall consist of at least three (3) persons; however, the size of the Board may be set by resolution of the Board from time to time.

2.2            TERM. Each director shall serve a term expiring at the next annual meeting of shareholders of the Company and until a successor shall be elected and qualified or until the earlier of death, resignation or removal.

2.3            AGE QUALIFICATION. No person shall be elected or re-elected as a director after reaching seventy-five (75) years of age (the “Qualifying Age”); provided, however, that the Board has the sole discretion, on a case-by-case basis, to not accept the resignation of a director who has reached the Qualifying Age if it determines, on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, that the director’s continued service (on a year-to-year basis) is in the best interests of the Company in order to retain skills on, or to maintain diversity of, the Board. When the term of any director extends beyond the date when the director reaches the Qualifying Age, such director shall tender notice of resignation from the Board of Directors effective at the annual meeting of shareholders next following the director’s seventy-fifth (75th) birthday.

2.4            ELECTION OF DIRECTORS.

(a)            In an election of directors that is not a contested election, a nominee for director shall be elected to the Board of Directors if the votes cast for such nominee’s election exceed the votes cast against such nominee’s election. Abstentions and broker non-votes shall not be considered to be votes cast. In a contested election of directors, the nominees for election to the Board of Directors receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be elected in such election, shall be elected. Shareholders shall not have the right to vote against a nominee in a contested election of directors.

(b)            For purposes of this Section 2.4, an election of directors shall be deemed contested if (i) the Secretary of the Company receives from a shareholder an advance notice indicating that such shareholder intends to propose at least one candidate for election as a director at a meeting of shareholders, which notice is in compliance with the advance notice requirements for shareholder nominees for director set forth in these Bylaws, and (ii) such notice of nomination has not been withdrawn by such shareholder on or before the tenth (10th) calendar day before the Company files its definitive proxy statement for such shareholders’ meeting with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (regardless of whether or not such proxy statement is thereafter revised or supplemented).

17 

2.5            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. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, 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.

In the case of any vacancy in the Board of Directors by death, resignation or for any other cause, including an increase in the number of directors, the Board may, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, even though less than a quorum or by the sole remaining director, fill the vacancy by choosing a director to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders of the Company and until a successor has been elected and qualified or until the earlier of death, resignation or removal.

2.7            REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS. Any director, or the entire Board of Directors, may be removed from office without assigning any cause by the vote of shareholders, or of the holders of a class or series of shares, entitled to elect directors. In case the Board of Directors or any one or more directors are so removed, new directors may be elected by the shareholders at the same meeting.

2.8            ANNUAL MEETING. An annual meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held each year after the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company, at such place as the Board of Directors may determine, in its sole discretion, for the purposes of organization, election of officers and the transaction of such other business as shall come before the meeting. No notice of the meeting need be given.

2.9            REGULAR MEETINGS. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such times and at such places as the Board of Directors may determine.

2.10          SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chair of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or any two (2) members of the Board of Directors. Notice of every special meeting shall be given to each director not later than the second day immediately preceding the day of such meeting in the case of notice by mail, telegram or courier service, and not later than the day immediately preceding the day of such meeting in the case of notice delivered personally or by telephone, facsimile transmission, email, text messaging or other electronic communication. Such notice shall state the time and place of the meeting, but, except as otherwise provided in these Bylaws, neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice, or waiver of notice, of such meeting.

18 

2.11          MEETINGS OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS.

ARTICLE III
INDEMNIFICATION

3.1            MANDATORY INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND OTHER PERSONS. The Company shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.4 hereof, indemnify any director or officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries who was or is an “authorized representative” of the Company (which shall mean for the purposes of this Article III, a director or officer of the Company, or a person serving at the request of, for the convenience of, or to represent the interests of, the Company as 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) and who was or is a “party” (which shall include for purposes of this Article III the giving of testimony or similar involvement) or is threatened to be made a party to any “proceeding” (which shall mean for purposes of this Article III any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, appeal, investigation (including any internal investigation), inquiry, hearing, mediation, arbitration, other alternative dispute mechanism or other proceeding of any nature, whether civil, criminal, administrative, regulatory, legislative, investigative or arbitrative, whether formal or informal, and whether brought by or in the right of the Company, its shareholders, the Board of Directors, any duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, a governmental agency or instrumentality, a self-regulatory organization or otherwise) by reason of the fact that such person was or is an authorized representative of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the PBCL and other applicable 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 Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment), including, without limitation, indemnification against expenses (which shall include for purposes of this Article III attorneys’ fees and disbursements), damages, punitive damages, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such proceeding unless the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction from which there is no further right of appeal to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness. For the purposes of this Article III, a person’s service to the Company or another enterprise shall be presumed to be “serving at the request of the Company,” unless it is conclusively determined to the contrary by a majority vote of the directors of the Company, excluding, if applicable, such person. With respect to such determination, it shall not be necessary for such person to show any actual or prior request by the Company or its Board of Directors for such service to the Company or such other enterprise. If an authorized representative is not entitled to indemnification in respect of a portion of any liabilities to which such person may be subject, the Company shall nonetheless indemnify such person to the maximum extent for the remaining portion of the liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not indemnify any such authorized representative in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) is brought by the authorized representative due to the failure of the Company to pay indemnification provided under Sections 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 and the authorized representative is successful in such proceeding.

21 

3.2            ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.4 hereof, the Company shall pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred in defending a proceeding on behalf of any person entitled to indemnification under Section 3.1 of this Article III in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in this Article III and may pay such expenses in advance on behalf of any employee or agent on receipt of a similar undertaking. Such advances shall be paid by the Company within ten (10) calendar days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from the person entitled to indemnification requesting such advance or advances from time to time together with a reasonable accounting of such expenses. The financial ability of any person entitled to indemnification under Section 3.1 of this Article III to repay the Company any amounts advanced for expenses shall not be a prerequisite to the making of an advance and any advancement of expenses of such a person shall not be required to be secured and shall not bear interest. Except as otherwise provided in the PBCL or this Section 3.2, the Company shall not impose on any person entitled to indemnification under Section 3.1 of this Article III additional conditions to the advancement of expenses or require from such person additional undertakings regarding repayment. Advancements of expenses to any person entitled to indemnification under Section 3.1 of this Article III 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.

3.3            EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. For purposes of this Article III, the Company shall be deemed to have requested an officer or director to serve as fiduciary with respect to an employee benefit plan where the performance by such person of duties to the Company also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, such person as a fiduciary with respect to the plan; excise taxes assessed on an authorized representative with respect to any transaction with an employee benefit plan shall be deemed “fines”; and action taken or omitted by such person with respect to an employee benefit plan in the performance of duties for a purpose reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is not opposed to the best interests of the Company.

22 

3.4            EXCEPTIONS. No indemnification under Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of this Article III or advancement or reimbursement of expenses under Section 3.2 of this Article III shall be provided to a person covered by Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of this Article III hereof: (i) with respect to expenses or the payment of profits arising from the purchase or sale of securities of the Company in violation of Section 16(b) of Exchange Act; (ii) if a final unappealable judgment or award establishes that such director or officer engaged in intentional misconduct or a transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit; (iii) for expenses or liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement) which have been paid directly to, or for the benefit of, such person by an insurance carrier under a policy of officers’ and directors’ liability insurance whose premiums are paid for by the Company or by an individual or entity other than such director or officer; and (iv) for amounts paid in settlement of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding without the written consent of the Company, which written consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Board of Directors of the Company is hereby authorized, at any time by resolution, to add to the foregoing list of exceptions from the right of indemnification under Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of this Article III or advancement or reimbursement of expenses under Section 3.2 of this Article III, but any such additional exception shall not apply with respect to any event, act or omission which occurred prior to the date that the Board of Directors in fact adopts such resolution. Any such additional exception may, at any time after its adoption, be amended, supplemented, waived or terminated by further resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company.

3.5            SECURITY FOR INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS. To further effect, satisfy or secure the indemnification obligations provided herein or otherwise, the Company may, at its expense, purchase and maintain insurance, obtain a letter of credit, act as self-insurer, create a reserve, trust, escrow, cash collateral or other fund or account, enter into indemnification agreements, pledge or grant a security interest in any assets or properties of the Company, or use any other mechanism or arrangement whatsoever in such amounts, at such costs, and upon such other terms and conditions as the Board of Directors shall deem appropriate.

3.6            CONTRACT RIGHTS. Without the necessity of entering into an express contract with any person covered by Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of this Article III and entitled to indemnification under Section 3.1 of this Article III, the obligations of the Company to indemnify an indemnified person under Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of this Article III, including the obligation to advance and/or reimburse expenses under Section 3.2 of this Article III, shall be considered a contract right between the Company and such indemnified person pursuant to which the Company and each such person intend to be legally bound 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 Article III 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.

3.7            RELIANCE UPON PROVISIONS. Each person who shall act as an authorized representative of the Company shall be deemed to be doing so in reliance upon the rights of indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article III.

23 

3.8            AMENDMENT OR REPEAL. Any repeal, amendment or modification hereof shall be prospective only and shall not limit, but may expand, any rights or obligations in respect of any proceeding whether commenced prior to or after such change to the extent such proceeding pertains to actions or failures to act occurring prior to such change.

3.9            NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The right to indemnification and the advancement of expenses, as authorized by this Article III, shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any applicable law (common law or statutory law), any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, agreement, insurance policy, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding such office or while employed by or acting as agent for 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 Article III, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the PBCL or other applicable law.

3.10            CONTINUATION OF RIGHTS. The rights of indemnification and advancement or reimbursement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article III shall continue as to an officer or director of the Company who has ceased to be an officer or director in respect of matters arising prior to such time, and shall inure to the benefit of the spouses, heirs, executors and administrators of such person.

3.11            NO IMPUTATION. The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any officer, director, employee or representative of the Company, another enterprise or any other person shall not be imputed to any person for purposes of determining the right to indemnification or advancement or reimbursement of expenses under this Article III.

3.12            ENFORCEMENT OF RIGHTS. If a request for indemnification or for the advancement or reimbursement of expenses pursuant to this Article III is not paid in full by the Company within thirty (30) calendar days after a written claim has been received by the Company, together with all supporting information reasonably requested by the Company, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim (plus interest at the prime rate announced from time to time by the Company’s primary lending bank) and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled also to be paid the expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ and investigation fees and costs) of prosecuting such claim. Neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors or independent legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of or the advancement or reimbursement of expenses to the claimant is proper in the circumstances, nor an actual determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors or independent legal counsel) that the claimant is not entitled to indemnification or to the reimbursement or advancement of expenses, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant is not so entitled.
