FIRST:The Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, be, and hereby is, amended by deleting Sections 5.2, 5.3, 5.4  and 5.5 thereof in their entirety and inserting the following in lieu thereof:

Section 5.2 Number, Election and Term.

(b) Subject to Section 5.5 hereof, commencing with the election of directors at the Corporation’s 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, all directors shall be elected annually for terms of one year, and each director elected at and after the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders shall hold office until the next succeeding annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor has been elected and qualified, subject, however, to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.  Each director elected prior to the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders for a term extending beyond the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders shall, notwithstanding such term, hold office only until the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor has been elected and qualified, subject, however, to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

(c) Unless and except to the extent that the Bylaws shall so require, the election of directors need not be by written ballot. The holders of shares of Common Stock shall not have cumulative voting rights.

Section 5.3 Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Subject to Section 5.5 hereof, newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors and any vacancies on the Board resulting from death,


resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal or other cause may be filled solely by a majority vote of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director (and not by stockholders), and any director so chosen shall hold office until his or her successor has been elected and qualified, subject, however, to such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

Section 5.4 [Reserved.]
