The Corporation shall be authorized to issue 105,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of two classes: 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share (“Preferred Stock”).

b. the voting powers, if any, and whether such voting powers are full or limited, in such series;

c. the redemption provisions, if any, applicable to such series, including the redemption price or prices to be paid;

Except as required by law, holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive notice of any meeting of stockholders at which they are not entitled to vote.

Section 4.3. Common Stock. The Common Stock shall be subject to the express terms of the Preferred Stock and any series thereof. The holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each such share upon all proposals on which the holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote.

The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock, without a vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock, or of any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to any Preferred Stock Designation.

ARTICLE V
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

To the extent not provided for in this Certificate of Incorporation, the number, nominations, qualifications, tenure, vacancies and removal of the Directors shall be as set forth in the Bylaws. Election of Directors need not be by written ballot.

Section 5.1. Number, Election and Terms of Directors. The number of Directors which shall constitute the entire Board shall be fixed from time to time by a majority of the Directors then in office and shall be divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III; provided, however, that from and after the first date as of which the Corporation has a class or series of capital stock registered under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the number of Directors which shall constitute the entire Board shall be not less than three. Each Director shall serve for a term ending on the third annual meeting following the annual meeting of stockholders at which such Director was elected; provided, however, that the Directors first elected to Class I shall serve for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2005, the Directors first elected to Class II shall serve for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2006, and the Directors first elected to Class III shall serve for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2007. Each Director shall hold office until the annual meeting of stockholders at which such Director’s term expires and, the foregoing notwithstanding, shall serve until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

At such annual election, the Directors chosen to succeed those whose terms then expire shall be of the same class as the Directors they succeed, unless, by reason of any intervening changes in the authorized number of Directors, the Board shall have designated one or more

Directorships whose terms then expire as Directorships of another class in order to more nearly achieve equality of number of Directors among the classes.

In the event of any changes in the authorized number of Directors, each Director then continuing to serve shall nevertheless continue as a Director of the class of which he or she is a member until the expiration of his or her current term, or his or her prior death, resignation or removal. The Board shall specify the class to which a newly created Directorship shall be allocated.

Section 5.2. Removal Of Directors. No Director of the Corporation shall be removed from office as a Director by vote or other action of the stockholders or otherwise except for cause, and then only by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation generally entitled to vote in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class.

Section 5.3. Vacancies. Subject to any requirements of law to the contrary, newly created Directorships resulting from any increase in the number of Directors and any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, removal or other cause shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining Directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board. Any Director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of Directors in which the new Directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and until such Director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the number of Directors constituting the Board shall shorten the term of any incumbent Director.
