iv.           the special and relative rights and preferences, if any, and the amount or amounts per share, which the shares of such class or series of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation;

v.           the terms and conditions, if any, upon which shares of such class or series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of capital stock of any other class or series, including the price or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or exchange and the terms of adjustment, if any;

ARTICLE VI

In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, alter, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the corporation.

The directors shall be divided into three classes with the term of office of the first class (Class I) to expire at the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2000; the term of office of the second class (Class II) to expire at the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2001; the term of office of the third class (Class III) to expire at the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2002; and thereafter for each such term to expire at each third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after such election.

ARTICLE VIII

ARTICLE IX

Holders of stock of any class or series of the corporation shall not be entitled to cumulate their votes for the election of directors or any other matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders.

The corporation may, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the corporation, indemnify any other person who may be indemnified pursuant to Section 145 to the extent the Board of Directors deems advisable, as permitted by Section 145. The corporation shall promptly make or cause to be made any determination required to be made pursuant to Section 145.

2.           No person shall be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (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 General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware is subsequently amended to further eliminate or limit the liability of a director, then a director of the corporation, in addition to the circumstances in which a director is not personally liable as set forth in the preceding sentence, shall not be liable to the fullest extent permitted by the amended General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. For purposes of this Article XII, "fiduciary duty as a director" shall include any fiduciary duty arising out of serving at the corporation's request as a director of another corporation, partnership, joint venture or other enterprise, and "personal liability to the corporation or its stockholders" shall include any liability to such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, and any liability to the corporation in its capacity as a security holder, joint venturer, partner, beneficiary, creditor or investor of or in any such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

Pursuant to Sections 151 and 103 of the Delaware General Corporation Law:

The Management Network Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), in accordance with the provisions of Sections 151 and 103 the Delaware General Corporation Law, DOES HEREBY CERTIFY:
 
FIRST:  That pursuant to the authority conferred upon the Board of Directors by the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Corporation, the Board of Directors on March 26, 2008, adopted a resolution creating a series of One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, designated as the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock.

Designation of Preferred Stock
 
RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors of this Corporation in accordance with the provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), the terms of a series of Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, designated as the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock are hereby amended and restated in their entirety, so that the designation and amount thereof and the voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of the shares of such series, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof are as follows:
 
Section 1.                      Designation and Amount.  The shares of such series shall be designated as the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (hereinafter referred to as "Series A Preferred Stock") and the number of shares constituting such series shall be One Hundred Thousand (100,000).  Such number of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors, provided that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares outstanding plus the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding rights to purchase or convert into shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
 
 
 

 
 
Section 2.                      Dividends and Distributions.
 
(A)           Subject to the prior and superior rights of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock ranking prior and superior to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of Common Stock, par value $.005 per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Corporation and of any other class of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock (together with Common Stock, "Junior Stock"), shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, dividends payable in cash in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent), equal to the product of the Series A Multiple (as defined below) times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, plus the product of the Series A Multiple times the aggregate per share amount (payable in cash, based upon the fair market value at the time the non-cash dividend or other distribution is declared as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared (but not withdrawn) on the Common Stock.
 
(B)           As used  herein, the “Series A Multiple” shall initially be 200.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time after July 19, 2010 (i) declare any dividend on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock, or (iii) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Series A Multiple shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
 
(C)           The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall not declare a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock) unless it shall concurrently therewith declare a dividend or distribution on the Series A Preferred Stock.  Payment of a dividend or distribution determined on the Series A Preferred Stock shall be in preference to payment of any dividend or distribution on the Common Stock or any other Junior Stock.
 
(D)           The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be no more than thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.
 
 
 

 
 
Section 3.                      Voting Rights.  Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:
 
(A)           Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to a number of votes equal to the product of the Series A Multiple then in effect times the number of votes that each share of Common Stock entitles its holder to vote at such meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation.
 
(B)           The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Corporation having general voting rights shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation.
 
(C)           The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any corporate action.
 
Section 4.                      Certain Restrictions.
 
(A)           Whenever dividends or distributions payable on the Series A Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions on shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not:
 
(i)           declare or pay dividends (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock) on, make any other distributions on, or redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Junior Stock;
 
(ii)           declare or pay dividends on or make any other distributions on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series A Preferred Stock ("Parity Stock"), except dividends paid ratably on the Series A Preferred Stock and all such Parity Stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled;

(iv)           purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or any shares of Parity Stock, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of such shares upon such terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall determine in good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or classes.
 
(B)           The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (A) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner.
 
Section 5.                      Reacquired Shares.  Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and canceled promptly after the acquisition thereof.  All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock to be created by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein, in the Certificate of Incorporation, in any other Certificate of Designations establishing a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law.
 
Section 6.                      Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.
 
(A)            In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, in preference to the holders of Junior Stock, the   greater of (a) an amount per share equal to the product of the Series A Multiple and $1.00, plus accrued dividends to the date of distribution, whether or not earned or declared, or (b) an amount per share equal to the product of the Series A Multiple then in effect times the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of Common Stock. No distribution upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall be made to holders of shares of Junior Stock with respect to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up until all holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have received the amounts to which such holders are entitled under this Section.
 
 
 

 
 
(B)           In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of Parity Stock  shall not receive any distributions except for distributions made ratably on the Series A Preferred Stock and all other such Parity Stock in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
 
Section 7.                      Consolidation, Merger, Etc.  In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed in an amount per share equal to the product of the Series A Multiple then in effect times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchanged.
 
Section 8.                      No Redemption.  The shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable.
 
Section 9.                      Ranking.  The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank junior to all other series of the Corporation's Preferred Stock, or any similar stock that specifically provides that it shall rank prior to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, as to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets, unless the terms of any such series shall provide otherwise.  Nothing herein shall preclude the Board of Directors from creating any series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock ranking on a parity with or prior to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends or the distribution of assets.
 
Section 10.                      Fractional Shares.  Series A Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share which shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder's fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series A Preferred Stock.
 
Section 11.                      Amendment.  The Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, including this Certificate of Designations establishing the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, shall not be amended in any manner which would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds or more of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock voting separately as a class.
 
 
 

 
 
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Certificate is executed on behalf of the Corporation as of this 19th day of July, 2010.

(b) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 2.5(a), the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation.  To be timely, such stockholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than one hundred twenty (120) calendar days or more than one hundred fifty (150) calendar days in advance of the first anniversary date of mailing of the Corporation's proxy statement released to stockholders in connection with the previous year's annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than thirty (30) days or delayed by more than sixty (60) days from the first anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered and received not earlier than the 150th day before such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 120th day before such annual meeting or (ii) the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is first made. To be in proper form, a stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth:
 
(i)  
as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as it appears on the Corporation’s books, and of such beneficial owner and (ii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner;
 
 
 

 
 
(ii)  
a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice or to present the proposed business to be brought before the meeting, as the case may be;
 
(iii)  
the names and addresses of the person or persons, if any, to be nominated for election as directors by the stockholder;
 
(iv)  
a description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or nominations, if any, are to be made by the stockholder;
 
(v)  
as to any business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made;
 
(vi)  
such other information regarding each nominee or each matter of business to be proposed by such stockholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission had proxies been solicited by the Board of Directors with respect thereto; and
 
(vii)  
if applicable, the consent of each nominee to serve as director of the Corporation if so elected.
 
(c) Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.5 shall be eligible to serve as directors and only such business shall be conducted at an annual meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.5. The chairperson of the annual meeting of stockholders shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.5, and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with this Section 2.5, to declare that such defective nominations or proposal shall be disregarded.
 
(d) Notwithstanding satisfaction of the provisions of this Section 2.5, the proposed business described in the notice, other than director nominations, may be deemed not to be properly brought before the meeting if, pursuant to state law or to any rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission, it was offered as a stockholder proposal and was omitted, or had it been so offered, it could have been omitted, from the notice of, and proxy material for, the meeting (or any supplement thereto) authorized by the Board of Directors.
 
 
 

 
 
(e) In the event such notice is timely given pursuant to Section 2.5, and the business described therein is not disqualified pursuant to Section 2.5, such business may be presented by, and only by, the stockholder who shall have given the notice required by Section 2.5, or a representative of such stockholder who is qualified under the law of the State of Delaware to present the proposal on the stockholder's behalf at the meeting.
 
(f) For purposes of this Section 2.5, "public announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Business Wire, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.5, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 2.5. Nothing in this Section 2.5 shall be deemed to affect any rights (i) of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (ii) of the holders of any series or class of preferred stock as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation to elect directors under specified circumstances.
 
2.6  
MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE; AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE
 
Written notice of any meeting of stockholders, if mailed, is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the Corporation.  Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders may be given by electronic transmission, including electronic mail, in the manner provided in and to the extent permitted by Section 232 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.  An affidavit of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or of the transfer agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
 
2.7  
QUORUM
 
The holders of a majority of the shares of stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation.  If, however, such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (i) the chairperson of the meeting or (ii) the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented.  At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.
 
 
 

 
 
2.8  
ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE
 
When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, unless these Bylaws otherwise require, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken.  At the adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.
 
2.9  
PRESIDING OFFICERS
 
Meetings of the stockholders shall be presided over by such person who is chosen by the Board of Directors, or, if none, by the Chairman of the Board, or, if the Chairman of the Board is not present, by the Chief Executive Officer, or, if the Chief Executive Officer is not present, by the president, or, if the president is not present, by a chairperson to be chosen at the meeting by stockholders present in person or by proxy who own a majority of the shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote and represented at such meeting.  The secretary of meetings shall be the Secretary of the Corporation, or, if the Secretary is not present, an assistant secretary, if any, or, if an assistant secretary is not present, such person as may be chosen by the Board of Directors, or, if none, by such person who is chosen by the chairperson at the meeting.
 
2.10  
CONDUCT OF BUSINESS
 
The chairperson of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion. The chairperson shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another place, if any, date and time.
 
2.11  
VOTING
 
At any meeting of stockholders every stockholder having the right to vote shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy.  Except as otherwise provided by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder of record shall be entitled to one vote (on each matter submitted to a vote) for each share of capital stock registered in his, her or its name on the books of the Corporation.
 
2.12  
RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING
 
In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other action.
 
 
 

 
 
If the Board of Directors does not so fix a record date:
 
(a)  
The record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.
 
(b)  
The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.
 
A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.
 
2.13
