A Delaware Corporation

PREAMBLE

These bylaws have been amended and restated as of October 21, 2004. These bylaws are subject to, and governed by, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) and the certificate of incorporation, as it may be amended and in effect from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) of United Stationers Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”).  In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of these bylaws and the mandatory provisions of the DGCL or the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, such provisions of the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation, as the case may be, will be controlling.

ARTICLE I

OFFICES

1.1Registered Office and Agent.  The registered office of the Corporation shall be in the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, State of Delaware or as otherwise designated from time to time by the appropriate filing by the Corporation in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.  The name and address of the registered agent of the Corporation is The Corporation Trust Company or as otherwise designated from time to time by the appropriate filing by the Corporation in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

1.2Other Offices.  The Corporation may also have offices at such other places, both within and without the State of Delaware, as the board of directors may from time to time determine or as the business of the Corporation may require.

ARTICLE II

MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

2.1Annual Meeting.  An annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation shall be held each calendar year on such date and at such time as shall be designated from time to time by the board of directors and stated in the notice of the meeting.  At such meeting, the stockholders shall elect directors and transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.  If the election of directors shall not be held on the day designated herein for any annual meeting, or at any adjournment thereof, the

1

board of directors shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of the stockholders as soon thereafter as may be convenient.

2.2Special Meeting.  A special meeting of the stockholders shall be held as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation and in Article V hereof.

2.3Place of Meetings.  An annual meeting of stockholders may be held at any place within or without the State of Delaware designated by the board of directors.  A special meeting of stockholders may be held at any place within or without the State of Delaware designated in the notice of the meeting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the board of directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but shall be held solely by means of remote communication, subject to such guidelines and procedures as the board of directors may adopt, as permitted by applicable law.

2.4Notice of Meeting.

(a)Written or printed notice stating the place, day, and time of an annual meeting of the stockholders 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 meeting shall be delivered not less than ten nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by mail, by or at the direction of the President, the Secretary, or the officer or person(s) calling the meeting, to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting.  If such notice is to be sent by mail, it shall be directed to such stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation, unless he shall have filed with the Secretary of the Corporation a written request that notices to him be mailed to some other address, in which case it shall be directed to him at such other address.  Notice of any annual meeting of stockholders shall not be required to be given to any stockholder who shall attend such meeting in person or by proxy and shall not, at the beginning of such annual meeting, object to the transaction of any business because the annual meeting is not lawfully called or convened, or who shall, either before or after the annual meeting, submit a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy.

(b)Notices of special meetings of the stockholders shall be issued as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation and in Article V hereof.

(c)Without limiting the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 2.4, any notice to stockholders of a meeting given by the Corporation pursuant to this Section 2.4 or the Certificate of Incorporation, shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given.  Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation and shall also be deemed revoked if (1) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent and (2) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Corporation, the transfer agent or other person responsible for the giving of notice;

2

provided, however, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.  Notice given by a form of electronic transmission in accordance with these bylaws shall be deemed given: (i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consent to receive notice; (ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice; (iii) if by a posting on an electronic network, together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of such posting and the giving of such separate notice; and (iv) if by another form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

(d)For purposes of these bylaws, “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

2.5Business at Annual Meetings.  The business to be conducted at annual meetings of the Corporation shall be as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation.

2.6Voting List.  At least ten days before each meeting of stockholders, the Secretary or other officer of the Corporation who has charge of the Corporation’s stock ledger, either directly or through another officer appointed by him or through a transfer agent appointed by the board of directors, shall prepare a complete list of record holders of each class and series of shares of stock entitled to vote thereat, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each record holder and number of shares registered in the name of each record holder.  Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation.  If the meeting is to be held at a place, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.  If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time thereof on a reasonably accessible electronic network and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.  The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list of record holders or the books of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

2.7Quorum.  The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of each class and/or series of capital stock entitled to vote on a matter present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these bylaws.  If, however, the holders of any two or more classes or series of stock are entitled, or required, pursuant to the terms of the

3

Certificate of Incorporation, to vote together as a single class on any matter coming before such stockholders, the holders of a majority in the aggregate of the outstanding shares of such classes and/or series (except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation) present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for purposes of voting on any matter that may be put before such stockholders in accordance with law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws.  Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation to vote stock, including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary capacity.  If a quorum shall not be present, in person or by proxy, at any meeting of stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat who are present, in person or by proxy, or the chairman of the meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time in accordance with Section 2.13 hereof.

2.8Required Vote; Withdrawal of Quorum.  When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares having voting power and entitled to vote on a matter who are present, in person or by proxy, shall decide any such matter brought before such meeting, unless such matter is one on which, by express provision of statute, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these bylaws, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such matter.  The stockholders present at a duly constituted meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

2.9Method of Voting; Proxies; Meeting by Remote Communication.

(a)Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, each outstanding share of capital stock which has voting power on the subject matter submitted to a vote by stockholders shall be entitled to one vote on each such matter.  Elections of directors need not be by written ballot.  At any meeting of stockholders, every stockholder having the right to vote may vote either in person or by a proxy.

(b)At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder may authorize another person to act for such stockholder by proxy (i) executed in writing by the stockholder or such stockholder’s duly authorized officer, director or attorney-in-fact or (ii) transmitted by the stockholder or such stockholder’s duly authorized officer, director or attorney-in-fact by telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission to the proxy holder or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service or like agent duly authorized by the proxy holder to receive such transmission, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission sets forth or is submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was duly authorized by the stockholder.  Such proxy must be filed with the Secretary of the Corporation or the inspectors of election at or before the time of

4

the meeting.  No such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period.  A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.  A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing with the Secretary an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date.

(c)If expressly authorized by the board of directors in accordance with these bylaws and applicable law, and subject to such guidelines and procedures as the board of directors may adopt, stockholders and proxy holders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication (including, without limitation, by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which persons participating in the meeting can hear each other), (a) participate in a meeting of stockholders and (b) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders, whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that (i) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxy holder, (ii) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxy holders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings, and (iii) if any stockholder or proxy holder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

2.10Record Date.

(a)For the purpose of determining 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 a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors.  Such date in any case shall not be more than 60 days or less than ten days prior to any such meeting nor more than 60 days prior to any other action.  If no record date is fixed:

(i)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.

5

(ii)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.

(iii)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.

(b)In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors.  If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the board of directors is required by law or these bylaws, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.  Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office in the State of Delaware, principal place of business, or such officer or agent shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.  If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors and prior action by the board of directors is required by law or these bylaws, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

2.11Conduct of Meetings.  The Chairman, if such position has been filled, shall preside at all meetings of stockholders as the chairman of the meeting.  In the absence or inability to act of the Chairman at any meeting of the stockholders, a chairman of the meeting shall be appointed to preside at such meeting of the stockholders by a majority of the board of directors present at such meeting.  The board of directors of the Corporation may adopt by resolution such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate.  Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the board of directors, the chair of any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chair, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting.  Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the board of directors or prescribed by the chair of the meeting, may, but shall not be required to, include, without limitation, the following:  (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iii) limitations on

6

attendance at or participation in the meeting, to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the chair shall permit; (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof, and (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants.  Unless, and to the extent determined by the board of directors or the chair of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with rules of parliamentary procedure.  The Secretary shall keep the records of each meeting of stockholders.  In the absence or inability to act of any such officer, such officer’s duties shall be performed by the officer given the authority to act for such absent or non-acting officer under these bylaws or by some other officer appointed by the board of directors.

2.12Inspectors.

(a)The board of directors may, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors to act at such meeting or any adjournment thereof.  If any of the inspectors so appointed shall fail to appear or act, the chairman of the meeting shall, or if inspectors shall not have been appointed, the chairman of the meeting may, appoint one or more inspectors.  No director or candidate for the office of director shall act as an inspector of an election of directors.  Inspectors need not be stockholders.  Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.

(b)The inspectors shall (i) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, (ii) determine the number of shares present in person or by proxy at such meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and ballots, (iv) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors and (v) certify their determination of the number of such shares present in person or by proxy at such meeting and their count of all votes and ballots.  In addition, at the time the inspectors make their certification pursuant to this paragraph (b), the inspectors shall specify any information provided in accordance with Section 2.9(b) of these bylaws and any other information permitted by applicable law upon which they relied in determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots.  The inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist them in the performance of their duties.  On request of the chairman of the meeting, the inspectors shall make a report in writing of any challenge, request, or matter determined by them and shall execute a certificate of any fact found by them.

(c)The chairman of the meeting shall announce at the meeting the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting.  No ballots, proxies or votes, nor any revocations thereof or changes thereto, shall be accepted by the inspectors after the closing of the

7

polls unless the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware upon application by any stockholder shall determine otherwise.

2.13Adjournments.  Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other date, time and/or place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the date, time, place, if any, thereof 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 meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken.  At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present, in person or by proxy, any business may be transacted which may have been transacted at the original meeting had a quorum been present; provided that, if the adjournment is for more than 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 adjourned meeting.

2.14Action Without a Meeting.

(a)Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting only as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation.

(b)A telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission consenting to an action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxy holder, or by a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxy holder, shall be deemed to be written, signed and dated for the purposes of Section 228(d)(1) of the DGCL and the Certificate of Incorporation, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Corporation can determine (A) that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was transmitted by the stockholder or proxy holder or by a person or persons authorized to act for the stockholder or proxy holder and (b) the date on which such stockholder or proxy holder or authorized person or persons transmitted such telegram, cablegram or electronic transmission.  The date on which such telegram, cablegram or electronic transmission is transmitted shall be deemed to be the date on which such consent was signed.  No consent given by telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been delivered until such consent is reproduced in paper form and until such paper form shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office, its principal place of business or any officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the books in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.  Delivery made to a Corporation’s registered office shall be made by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.  Notwithstanding the forgoing limitations on delivery, consents given by telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission may be otherwise delivered to the principal place of business of the Corporation or to an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the books in which proceedings of meetings of

8

stockholders are recorded if, to the extent and in the manner provided by resolution of the board of directors or governing body of the Corporation.

ARTICLE III

DIRECTORS

3.1Management.  The business and property of the Corporation shall be managed by the board of directors.  Subject to the restrictions imposed by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these bylaws, the board of directors may exercise all the powers of the Corporation.

3.2Number; Qualification; Election; Term.

(a)The number of directors which shall constitute the entire board of directors shall be nine; provided, that, unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, the number of directors constituting the entire board of directors may be increased or decreased from time to time exclusively by resolution adopted by the board of directors and shall consist of no less than three and no more than fifteen members.  The tenure and qualifications of directors on the board of directors of the Corporation shall be as provided herein and in the Certificate of Incorporation.  Each director shall hold office until such director’s successor is elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.

(b)Except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these bylaws, the directors shall be elected at an annual meeting of the stockholders at which a quorum is present.  Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors.  None of the directors need be a stockholder of the Corporation or a resident of Delaware.  Each director must have attained the age of majority.

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever the holders of any one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately by class or series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation or the resolution or resolutions adopted by the board of directors pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation and applicable thereto, and such directors so elected shall not be divided into classes pursuant to this bylaw unless expressly provided by such terms.

3.3Chairman.  The board of directors shall elect one of its members as Chairman.  The Chairman, if present, shall preside at all meetings of the board of directors.  The Chairman shall have the powers and duties usually and customarily associated with the position of a non-executive Chairman and shall have such other powers and duties as may be assigned to him by the board of directors.  In his capacity as

9

Chairman, he shall not necessarily be an officer of the Corporation, but he shall be eligible to serve, in addition, as an officer pursuant to Article VI of these bylaws; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall the Chairman also serve as the President or chief executive officer of the Corporation.

3.4Change in Number.  No decrease in the number of directors constituting the entire board of directors shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director.

3.5Removal; Resignation.  A director may be removed from the board of directors in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation.  A director may resign from the board of directors as provided in Section 9.6 hereof.

3.6Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies.  Newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors and any vacancies occurring in the board of directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other cause shall be filled as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation.

3.7Nomination of Director Candidates.  Nominations for election to the board of directors shall be as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation.

3.8Meetings of Directors, Corporate Officers; Books and Records.  The directors may hold their meetings and may have an office or offices and keep the books of the Corporation, except as otherwise provided by statute, in such place or places within or without the State of Delaware as the board of directors may from time to time determine or as shall be specified in the notice of such meeting.

3.9First Meeting.  Each newly elected board of directors may hold its first meeting for the purpose of organization and the transaction of business, if a quorum is present, on the same day and at the same place as the annual meeting of stockholders, and no notice of such meeting shall be necessary.  If a newly elected board of directors fails to hold its first meeting on the same day at the same place as the annual meeting of stockholders, the first meeting of the newly elected board of directors after each election of new directors thereto shall be held at such time and place as shall be specified in a notice given as provided in these bylaws for special meetings of the board of directors, or as shall be specified in a written waiver of notice signed by all of the directors.

3.10Election of Officers.  At the first meeting of the board of directors held in conjunction with each annual meeting of stockholders as described in Section 3.9 hereof at which a quorum shall be present, the board of directors shall elect the officers of the Corporation.

3.11Regular Meetings.  Regular meetings of the board of directors shall be held at such times and places as shall be designated from time to time by the board of directors.  Notice of such regular meetings shall not be required.

10

3.12Special Meetings.  Special meetings of the board of directors shall be held whenever called by the Chairman, the President, or, upon the request in writing of two or more directors, by any other officer of the Corporation.

3.13Notice.  The Secretary or, in the absence or inability to act of the Secretary, any person designated by the Chairman or President, shall give notice of each special meeting to each director at least 24 hours before the meeting; provided, however, that if a special meeting of the board of directors is called by the Chairman such meeting may be called upon such notice as the Chairman deems appropriate.  Notice of any such meeting need not be given to any director who shall, either before or after the meeting, submit a signed waiver of notice or who shall attend such meeting without protesting, prior to or at its commencement, the lack of notice to him.  Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the board of directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting.  Notice may be given by telephone to the director personally or to any person reasonably believed to be accepting messages for such director, or by electronic transmission, as defined in Section 2.4(d), or otherwise in writing in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof.

3.14Quorum; Majority Vote.  At all meetings of the board of directors, a majority of the directors elected or appointed in the manner provided in these bylaws and the Certificate of Incorporation shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.  If at any meeting of the board of directors there be less than a quorum present, a majority of those present or any director solely present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice.  Unless the act of a greater number is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, the act of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is in attendance shall be the act of the board of directors. At any time that the Certificate of Incorporation provides that directors elected by the holders of a class or series of stock shall have more or less than one vote per director on any matter, every reference in these bylaws to a majority or other proportion of directors shall refer to a majority or other proportion of the votes of such directors.

3.15Procedure.  At meetings of the board of directors, business shall be transacted in such order as from time to time the board of directors may determine.  The Chairman, if such position has been filled, shall preside at all meetings of the board of directors.  In the absence or inability to act of the Chairman at any meeting of the board of directors, a chairman of the meeting shall be chosen by a majority of the board of directors present at such meeting from among the directors present to preside at such meeting of the board of directors.  The Secretary of the Corporation shall act as the secretary of each meeting of the board of directors unless the board of directors appoints another person to act as secretary of the meeting.  The board of directors shall keep regular minutes of its proceedings which shall be placed in the minute book of the Corporation.

3.16Compensation.  The board of directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation, including any stated retainer, fees and reimbursement of expenses, paid to directors for their services as such, including without limitation for attendance at regular or special meetings of the board of directors; provided, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity or receiving compensation therefor.  No additional compensation for serving as a director or committee member shall be paid to any employee of the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof, other than the reimbursement of expenses.  Otherwise, committee members may, by resolution of the board of directors, be allowed a fixed sum and expenses of attendance, if any, for attending any committee meeting.

3.17Action by Written Consent.  Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the board of directors, or of any committee of the board of directors, may be taken without a meeting if all the directors or all the committee members, as the case may be, entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof, consent or consents thereto in writing or by electronic transmission, and such writing or writings or electronic transmission or transmissions shall have the same force and effect as a vote of such directors or committee members, as the case may be, and may be stated as such in any certificate or document filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or in any certificate delivered to any person.  Such writing or writings or electronic transmission or transmissions shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the board or committee, as the case may be.  Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.

3.18Telephonic Meetings Permitted.  Members of the board of directors, or any committee designated by the board, may participate in a meeting of such board or committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this bylaw shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

3.19Reliance upon Records.  Every director, and every member of any committee of the board of directors, shall, in the performance of his duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Corporation and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Corporation by any of its officers or employees, or committees of the board of directors, or by any other person as to matters the director or member reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation, including, but not limited to, such records, information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities and/or net profits of the Corporation, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of surplus or other funds from which dividends might properly be declared and paid, or with which the Corporation’s capital stock might properly be purchased or redeemed.

ARTICLE VI

6.1Number; Titles; Term of Office. The officers of the Corporation shall be a President, a Secretary, a Treasurer, and such other officers as the board of directors may from time to time elect.  Elected officers may include, without limitation, one or more Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents or Executive Vice Presidents.  Unless any such officer’s title is expressly set forth below, such officer shall have such descriptive title as the board of directors shall determine.  Unless a description of such officer’s services is expressly set forth below, such officer shall perform such services as requested by the board of directors or the President.  Each officer shall hold office until his successor shall have been duly elected and shall have qualified, until his death, or until he shall resign or shall have been removed in the manner hereinafter provided.  Any two or more offices may be held by the same person.  None of the officers need be a stockholder or a director of the Corporation or a resident of the State of Delaware.

6.3Vacancies.  Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Corporation (by death, resignation, removal, or otherwise) may be filled by the board of directors, a

6.9Assistant Secretaries.  The Assistant Secretaries in the order of their seniority shall, in the event that the Secretary is absent, or has vacated his office, or is unable or unwilling to act, perform the duties and exercise the powers of the Secretary.  They shall perform such other duties and have such other powers as the board of directors or the President may from time to time prescribe.

6.12Bond.  If required by the board of directors, the Treasurer and any other officer identified by the board of directors shall give the Corporation a bond (which shall be renewed as required from time to time) or such other security as the board may request

18

in such sum and with such surety or sureties as shall be satisfactory to the board of directors for the faithful performance of the duties of the office and for the restoration to the Corporation, in case of the death, resignation, retirement or removal from office of the Treasurer, of all books, papers, vouchers, money and other property of whatever kind in the possession or under the control of the Treasurer belonging to the Corporation.

6.13Assistant Treasurers.  The Assistant Treasurers, in the order of their seniority, unless otherwise determined by the board of directors, shall in the event the Treasurer is absent, or has vacated his office, or is unable or refuses to act, perform the duties and exercise the powers of the Treasurer.  They shall perform such other duties and have such other powers as the board of directors or the President may from time to time prescribe.

7.3Transfer of Shares.  Shares of stock of the Corporation shall be transferable only on the books of the Corporation by the holders thereof in person or by

19

their duly authorized attorneys or legal representatives.  Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of the Corporation of a certificate representing shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer, the Corporation or its transfer agent shall issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate, and record the transaction upon its books.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no new certificate shall be issued unless and until the surrendering stockholder provides a written opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Corporation or other evidence acceptable to the Corporation of compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws.

8.3Claims by Officers or Directors.  If a claim for indemnification or Advancement of Expenses by an officer or director under this article is not paid in full within ninety days after a written claim therefor has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim.  In any such action the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the claimant was not entitled to the requested indemnification or Advancement of Expenses under applicable law.
