The Amendment contains the following provisions:

• unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, designate the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, in the event that the Chancery Court does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) to be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action, suit or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company; (ii) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of the Company's directors, officers, employees or agent to the Company or its stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or the Company’s bylaws; or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided that, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any other claim for which the federal courts of the United States have exclusive jurisdiction;

• unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, designate the federal district courts of the United States as the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.
