The “close of business on” means 5:00 p.m. Charlotte, North Carolina time on a business day or on the first business day preceding the relevant date.

Each Shareholder Notice shall set forth: (i) a representation that the shareholder providing the Shareholder Notice is a holder of record of shares 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; (ii) whether the shareholder is providing the Shareholder Notice at the request of a beneficial holder of shares, whether the shareholder, any such beneficial holder or any director nominee has any agreement, arrangement or understanding with, or has received any financial assistance, funding or other consideration from, any other person with respect to the investment by the shareholder or such beneficial holder in the corporation or the matter the notice relates to, and the details thereof, including the name of such other person (the shareholder, any beneficial holder on whose behalf the Shareholder Notice is being delivered, any director nominees listed in the Shareholder Notice and any persons with whom such agreement, arrangement or understanding exists or from whom such assistance has been obtained are hereinafter collectively referred to as “Interested Persons”), (iii) the name and address of all Interested Persons, (iv) a complete listing of the record and beneficial ownership positions (including number and amount) in all equity securities and debt instruments, whether held in the form of loans or capital market instruments, of the corporation or any of its subsidiaries held by all Interested Persons, and (v) whether and the extent to which any hedging, derivative or other transaction is in place or has been entered into within the prior six months preceding the date of delivery of the Shareholder Notice by or for the benefit of any Interested Person with respect to the corporation or its subsidiaries or any of their respective securities, debt instruments or credit ratings, the effect or intent of which transaction is to give rise to gain or loss as a result of changes in the trading price of such securities or debt instruments or changes in the credit ratings for the corporation, its subsidiaries or any of their respective securities or debt instruments (or, more generally, changes in the perceived creditworthiness of the corporation or its subsidiaries), or to increase or decrease the voting power of such Interested Person, and if so, a summary of the material terms thereof.

As used in this Article III, Section 3, “beneficially owned” has the meaning provided in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and “beneficial holder” means a person or entity that beneficially owns the relevant securities. The Shareholder Notice shall be updated not later than 10 days after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting to provide any material changes in the foregoing information as of the record date. Any Shareholder Notice relating to the nomination of directors must also contain (i) the information regarding each director nominee required by paragraphs (a), (e) and (f) of Item 401 of Regulation S-K adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (or the corresponding provisions of any successor regulation), (ii) each director nominee’s signed consent to serve as a director of the corporation if elected, and (iii) whether each director nominee is eligible for consideration as an independent director under the relevant standards contemplated by Item 407(a) of Regulation S-K (or the corresponding provisions of any successor regulation). The corporation may also require any proposed director nominee to furnish such other information, including completion of the corporation’s directors’ questionnaire, as it may reasonably require to determine whether the director nominee would be considered “independent” or a “financial expert” as a director or as a member of any committee of the Board of Directors under the various rules and standards applicable to the corporation. The chairman of the meeting shall refuse to acknowledge the nomination of any person not made in compliance with the foregoing procedure.

In no event shall the postponement or adjournment of a shareholder meeting already publicly noticed, or any announcement of such postponement or adjournment, commence a new period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a Shareholder Notice as provided in this Article III, Section 3. For purposes of these bylaws, a matter shall be deemed to have been “publicly announced or disclosed” if such matter is disclosed in a document publicly filed by the corporation with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article III, Section 3 to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the corporation is increased and either all of the nominees for director or the size of the increased Board of Directors is not publicly announced or disclosed by the corporation at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a Shareholder Notice shall also be considered timely hereunder, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary of the corporation at the principal executive office of the corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the first date all of such nominees or the size of the increased Board of Directors shall have been publicly announced or disclosed.

	This Article III, Section 3 shall not apply to (i) shareholder proposals made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or (ii) the election of directors selected by or pursuant to the provisions of Article IV of the Articles of Incorporation of the corporation relating to the rights of the holders of any class or series of stock of the corporation having a preference over the Common Stock as to dividends or liquidation to elect directors under specified circumstances.

In lieu of closing the stock transfer books, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, such record date in any case to be not more than seventy days and, in case of a meeting of shareholders, not less than ten days immediately preceding the date on which the particular action, requiring such determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If the stock transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of shareholders.

Section 4.

Lost Certificates: The corporation may authorize the issuance of a new certificate in place of a certificate claimed to have been lost or destroyed, upon receipt of an affidavit by the corporation’s transfer agent of such fact from the person claiming the loss or destruction. When authorizing such issuance of a new certificate, the corporation may require the claimant to give the corporation a bond in said sum as it may direct to indemnify the corporation against loss from any claim with respect to the certificate claimed to have been lost or destroyed; or the corporation may authorize the issuance of a new certificate without requiring such a bond.
