In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a shareholder's notice as described above. Such shareholder's notice shall set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (i) a brief description of the business to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at such meeting, and the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and, in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the Articles of Incorporation (the "Restated Articles") or Bylaws of the Corporation, the text of the proposed amendment); (ii) as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, and any affiliate or associate (each within the current meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act for purposes of these Bylaws) of such shareholder or beneficial owner, and any person with whom such shareholder or beneficial owner (or any of their respective affiliates or associates) is "acting in concert" (as defined below) (A) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of such shareholder and of such beneficial owner, (B) the class or series and number of shares of the Corporation's stock which are, directly or indirectly, owned beneficially and of record, by such shareholder and such beneficial owner, (C) any option, warrant, convertible security, stock appreciation right, or similar right with an exercise or conversion privilege or a settlement payment or mechanism at a price related to any class or series of shares of the Corporation or with a value derived in whole or in part from the value of any class or series of shares of the Corporation, whether or not such instrument or right shall be subject to settlement in the underlying class or series of capital stock of the Corporation or otherwise (a "Derivative Instrument") directly or indirectly owned beneficially by such shareholder or beneficial owner and any other direct or indirect opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any increase or decrease in the value of shares of the Corporation, (D) any proxy, contract, arrangement, understanding, or relationship pursuant to which such shareholder or beneficial owner has a right to vote any shares of any security of the Corporation, (E) any short interest of such shareholder or beneficial owner in any security of the Corporation (for purposes of this Bylaw a person shall be deemed to have a short interest in a security if such person directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, has the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any decrease in the value of the subject security), (F) any rights to dividends on the shares of the Corporation owned beneficially by such shareholder or beneficial owner that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of the Corporation, (G) any proportionate interest in shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments held, directly or indirectly, by a general or limited partnership in which such shareholder or beneficial owner is a general partner or, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns an interest in a general partner, (H) any performance-related fees (other than an asset-based fee) that such shareholder or beneficial owner is entitled to based on any increase or decrease in the value of shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments, if any, as of the date of such notice, including without limitation any such interests held by members of such shareholder's or beneficial owner's immediate family sharing the same household, and (I) any other information relating to such shareholder and beneficial owner that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for, as applicable, the proposal and/or for the election of directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (iii) any material interest of the shareholder, and of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, in such business; (iv) a description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings between such shareholder and beneficial owner, if any, and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by the shareholder;

and (vi) a representation as to whether the shareholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends, or is or intends to be part of a group that intends, (A) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation's outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal and/or (B) otherwise to solicit proxies from shareholders in support of such proposal. For purposes of these Bylaws, "public announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable news service or in a document publicly filed or furnished by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(b) of the Exchange Act, and the meaning of the term "group" shall be the same as the meaning ascribed to such term under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.

For purposes of these Bylaws, a person shall be deemed to be "acting in concert" with another person if such person knowingly acts (whether or not pursuant to an express agreement, arrangement or understanding) in concert with, or towards a common goal relating to the management, governance or control of the Corporation in parallel with, such other person where (1) each person is conscious of the other person's conduct or intent and this awareness is an element in their decision-making processes and (2) at least one additional factor suggests that such persons intend to act in concert or in parallel, which such additional factors may include, without limitation, exchanging information (whether publicly or privately), attending meetings, conducting discussions, or making or soliciting invitations to act in concert or in parallel; provided, that a person shall not be deemed to be acting in concert with any other person solely as a result of the solicitation or receipt of revocable proxies or consents from such other person in response to a solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by way of a proxy or consent solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A. A person acting in concert with another person shall be deemed to be acting in concert with any third party who is also acting in concert with such other person.

(d)    A shareholder providing notice of business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting shall further update and supplement such notice, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to subsections (c)(ii)(A) through (I) of this Bylaw shall be true and correct as of the record date for the meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for the meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date), and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting, if practicable (or, if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to) any adjournment or postponement thereof (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof).

(e)    Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business (other than nominations of directors, which must be made in compliance with, and shall be exclusively governed by, Article III, Section 3 and Article III, Section 4, as applicable, of these Bylaws) shall be conducted at an annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Bylaw. The chair of the meeting may, if the facts warrant, determine that the business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Bylaw; and if the chair should so determine, the chair shall so declare to the meeting, and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article II, Section 1, a shareholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Bylaw; provided, however, that any references in these Bylaws to the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to be considered pursuant to paragraph (b)(iii) of this Bylaw. Nothing in this Bylaw shall be deemed to affect any rights of shareholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. The provisions of this Article II, Section 1 shall also govern what constitutes timely notice for purposes of Rule 14a-4(c) of the Exchange Act.

Section 2.    Special Meetings. (a) Special meetings of the shareholders for any purpose or purposes may be called only (i) by the Chair of the Board of Directors (the “Board Chair”), (ii) by the Board of Directors, pursuant to a resolution approved by a majority of the entire Board of Directors, or (iii) by the Secretary of the Corporation, following his or her receipt of one or more written demands to call a special meeting of the shareholders in accordance with, and subject to, this Section 2 from shareholders of record as of the record date fixed in accordance with Section 2(d) who hold, in the aggregate, at least fifty percent of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the Corporation. The notice of a special meeting shall state the purpose or purposes of the special meeting, and the business to be conducted at the special meeting shall be limited to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice. Except in accordance with this Section 2, shareholders shall not be permitted to propose business to be brought before a special meeting of the shareholders.

(b)    No shareholder may demand that the Secretary of the Corporation call a special meeting of the shareholders pursuant to Section 2(a) unless a shareholder of record has first submitted a request in writing that the Board of Directors fix a record date for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to demand that the Secretary of the Corporation call such special meeting, which request shall be in proper form and delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation.

(c)    To be in proper form for purposes of this Section 2, a request by a shareholder for the Board of Directors to fix a record date shall set forth:

(i)    As to each Requesting Person (as defined below), the information required to be provided under clause (ii)(A) through (I) of Article II, Section 1(c) of these Bylaws in a shareholder’s notice of business to be brought before an annual meeting of shareholders; and

(ii)    As to the purpose or purposes of the special meeting, (A) a reasonably brief description of the purpose or purposes of the special meeting and the business proposed to be conducted at the special meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the special meeting and any material interest in such business of each Requesting Person, and (B) a reasonably detailed description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings (x) between or among any of the Requesting Persons or (y) between or among any Requesting Person and any other person or entity (including their names) in connection with the request for the special meeting or the business proposed to be conducted at the special meeting.

For purposes of this Section 2(c), the term "Requesting Person" shall mean (i) the shareholder making the request to fix a record date for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to demand that the Secretary call a special meeting, (ii) the beneficial owner or beneficial owners, if different, on whose behalf such request is made, and (iii) any affiliate or associate (each within the current meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act for purposes of these Bylaws) of such shareholder or beneficial owner, and any other person with whom such shareholder or beneficial owner (or any of their respective affiliates or associates) is acting in concert.

(d)    Within ten (10) days after receipt of a request to fix a record date in proper form and otherwise in compliance with this Section 2 from any shareholder of record, the Board of Directors may adopt a resolution fixing a record date for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to demand that the Secretary of the Corporation call a special meeting, which date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no resolution fixing a record date has been adopted by the Board of Directors within the ten (10) day period after the date on which such a request to fix a record date was received, the record date in respect thereof shall be deemed to be the twentieth (20th) day after the date on which such a request is received. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2 to the contrary, no record date shall be fixed if the Board of Directors determines that the demand or demands that would otherwise be submitted following such record date could not comply with the requirements set forth in clauses (ii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of Section 2(f).

(e)    Without qualification, a special meeting of the shareholders shall not be called pursuant to Section 2(a) unless shareholders of record as of the record date fixed in accordance with Section 2(d) who hold, in the aggregate, more than fifty percent of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the Corporation (the "Requisite Percentage") timely provide one or more demands to call such special meeting in writing and in proper form to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation. Only shareholders of record on the record date shall be entitled to demand that the Secretary of the Corporation call a special meeting of the shareholders pursuant to Section 2 (a). To be timely, a shareholder's demand to call a special meeting must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the record date fixed in accordance with Section 2(d). To be in proper form for purposes of this Section 2, a demand to call a special meeting shall set forth (i) the business proposed to be conducted at the special meeting, (ii) the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration), and (iii) with respect to any shareholder or shareholders submitting a demand to call a special meeting, the information required to be provided pursuant to this Section 2 of a Requesting Person. A shareholder may revoke a demand to call a special meeting by written revocation delivered to the Secretary at any time prior to the special meeting. If any such revocation(s) are received by the Secretary after the Secretary's receipt of written demands from the holders of the Requisite Percentage of shareholders, and as a result of such revocation(s), there no longer are unrevoked demands from the Requisite Percentage of shareholders to call a special meeting, the Board of Directors shall have the discretion to determine whether or not to proceed with the special meeting.

(f)    The Secretary shall not accept, and shall consider ineffective, a written demand from a shareholder to call a special meeting (i) that does not comply with this Section 2, (ii) that relates to an item of business to be transacted at such meeting that is not a proper subject for shareholder action under applicable law, (iii) that includes an item of business to be transacted at such meeting that did not appear on the written request that resulted in the determination of the record date (the "Current Record Date") to determine the shareholders entitled to submit such written demand, (iv) that relates to an item of business (other than the election of directors) that is identical or substantially similar to an item of business (a "Similar Item") for which a record date (other than the Current Record Date) was previously fixed and such demand is delivered between the time beginning on the 61st day after such previous record date and ending on the one-year anniversary of such previous record date, (v) if a Similar Item will be submitted for shareholder approval at any shareholder meeting to be held on or before the 90th day after the Secretary receives such demand, or (vi) if a Similar Item has been presented at the most recent annual meeting or at any special meeting held within one year prior to receipt by the Secretary of such demand to call a special meeting.

(g)    After receipt of demands in proper form and in accordance with this Section 2 from a shareholder or shareholders holding the Requisite Percentage, the Board of Directors shall duly call, and determine the place, date and time of, a special meeting of shareholders for the purpose or purposes and to conduct the business specified in the demands received by the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, the Board of Directors may submit its own proposal or proposals for consideration at such a special meeting. The record date for such a special meeting shall be fixed in accordance with Article VI, Section 6 of these Bylaws. The Board of Directors shall provide written notice of such special meeting to the shareholders in accordance with Article II, Section 4.

(h)    In connection with a special meeting called in accordance with this Section 2, the shareholder or shareholders who requested that the Board of Directors fix a record date in accordance with this Section 2 or who delivered a demand to call a special meeting to the Secretary shall further update and supplement the information previously provided to the Corporation in connection with such request or demand, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such request or demand pursuant to this Section 2 shall be true and correct as of the record date for the special meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for the special meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date), and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting, if practicable (or, if not practicable, the first practicable date prior to) any adjournment or postponement thereof (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as often (10) business days prior to the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof).

(i)    Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, the Secretary shall not be required to call a special meeting pursuant to this Section 2 except in accordance with this Section 2. If the Board of Directors shall determine that any request to fix a record date or demand to call and hold a special meeting was not properly made in accordance with this Section 2, or shall determine that the shareholder or shareholders requesting that the Board of Directors fix such record date or submitting a demand to call the special meeting have not otherwise complied with this Section 2, then the Board of Directors shall not be required to fix a record date or to call and hold the special meeting. In addition to the requirements of this Section 2, each Requesting Person shall comply with all requirements of applicable law, including all requirements of the Exchange Act, with respect to any request to fix a record date or demand to call a special meeting.

Section 3.    Place of Meeting. The Board may designate any place, either within or without the State of Iowa, as the place of meeting for any annual meeting or for any special meeting called by the Board. A waiver of notice signed by all shareholders entitled to vote at a meeting may designate any place, either within or without the State of Iowa, as the place for the holding of such meeting. If no designation is made, or if a special meeting be otherwise called, the place of meeting shall be the registered office of the Corporation in the State of Iowa.

Section 4.    Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise provided by law, written notice of each meeting of the shareholders, whether annual or special, shall be given, either by personal delivery or by mail, not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each shareholder of record entitled to notice of the meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed given when deposited in the United States mail, postage pre-paid, directed to the shareholder at such shareholder's address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. Each such notice shall state the place, date and time of the meeting, and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Notice of any meeting of shareholders shall not be required to be given to any shareholder who shall attend such meeting in person or by proxy without protesting, prior to or at the commencement of the meeting, the lack of proper notice to such shareholder, or who shall sign a written waiver of notice thereof, whether before or after such meeting. Notice of adjournment of a meeting of shareholders need not be given if the new date, time and place to which the meeting is adjourned are announced at such meeting before adjournment. If a new record date for the adjourned meeting is or must be fixed under Section 6 of Article VI of these By-laws or the Act, however, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given under this Section to persons who are shareholders as of the new record date.

Section 5.    Voting Lists. The officers or agent having charge of the transfer books for shares of the Corporation shall make, for each meeting of shareholders, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at such meeting, or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each. Beginning two (2) business days after notice of the meeting is given for which the list was prepared and continuing through the meeting, the shareholders' list shall be kept on file at the registered office of the Corporation and shall be subject to inspection and copying, under the terms set forth in the Act and at the person's expense, by any shareholder, or a shareholder's agent or attorney, during regular business hours. The original share ledger or transfer book, or a duplicate thereof, shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the shareholders entitled to examine such list or share ledger or transfer book or to vote at any meeting of shareholders.

Section 6.    Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law or by the Restated Articles, the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the shareholders entitled to vote generally, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the shareholders.

Section 7.    Adjournments. The chair of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the shareholders who are present in person or represented by proxy may adjourn the meeting from time to time, whether or not a quorum is present. If less than a majority of the outstanding shares are represented at a meeting, the chair of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the shares so represented, either in person or by proxy, may adjourn the meeting to another place, date or time without further notice other than announcement at the meeting; provided, however, that if a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, written notice of the place, date and time of the adjourned meeting shall be given as required in Section 4 of this Article II. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.

Section 8.    Order and Notice of Business. At each meeting of the shareholders, the Board Chair or, in the absence of the Board Chair, such person as shall be selected by the Board, shall act as chair of the meeting. The order of business at each such meeting shall be as determined by the chair of the meeting. The chair of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts and things as are necessary or desirable for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, the establishment of procedures for the maintenance of order and safety, limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments on the affairs of the Corporation, restrictions on entry to such meeting after the time prescribed for the commencement thereof, and the opening and closing of the voting polls.

Section 9.     Proxies. At all meetings of shareholders, a shareholder may vote in person or by proxy executed in writing by the shareholder or by his or her duly authorized attorney in fact, or as otherwise may be authorized under the Act. Such proxy shall be filed with the Secretary of the Corporation before or at the time of the meeting. No proxy shall be valid after eleven months from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

Section 10.    Voting of Shares. (a) Unless otherwise provided by law or by the Restated Articles, each shareholder of record of the Common Stock of the Corporation shall be entitled at each meeting of shareholders to one vote for each share of such stock, in each case, registered in such shareholder's name on the books of the Corporation (i) on the date fixed pursuant to Section 6 of Article VI of these By-laws as the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting or (ii) if no such record date shall have been so fixed, then at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice of such meeting 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) Unless otherwise provided in the Restated Articles, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Shareholders do not have the right to cumulate their votes for directors unless the Restated Articles so provide. If a quorum exists, action on a matter, other than the election of directors, by the shareholders is approved if the votes cast favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the Restated Articles or the Iowa Business Corporation Act require a greater number of affirmative votes.

(c) Unless required by law or determined by the chair of the meeting to be advisable, the vote on any matter, including the election of directors, need not be by written ballot. In the case of a vote by written ballot, each ballot shall be signed by the shareholder voting, or by such shareholder's proxy, and shall state the number of shares voted.

Section 11.    Voting of Shares by Certain Holders. Shares standing in the name of another corporation, domestic or foreign, may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the by-laws of such corporation may prescribe, or, in the absence of such provision, as the board of directors of such corporation may determine. Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian or conservator may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into his or her name. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by him or her, either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by him or her without a transfer of such shares into his or her name. Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by the receiver without the transfer thereof into his or her name if authority so to do be contained in an appropriate order of the court by which such receiver was appointed. A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred. Shares of its own stock belonging to this Corporation shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any time, but shares of its own stock held by it in a fiduciary capacity may be voted and shall be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given time.

Section 12.    Informal Action by Shareholders. Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the shareholders, or any other action which may be taken at a meeting of the shareholders, may be taken without a meeting if one or more consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of not less than ninety percent in amount of all the issued and outstanding shares of the entire capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof at such a meeting and are delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records. A written consent shall bear the date of signature of each shareholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to in the consent unless, within sixty days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by this Section to the Corporation, written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action are delivered to the Corporation.

Section 13.    Inspectors. At any meeting of shareholders, the chair of the meeting shall appoint one or more persons, who need not be shareholders of the Corporation, as inspectors for such meeting. Such inspectors shall ascertain and report the number of shares represented at the meeting, based upon their determination of the validity and effect of proxies; count all votes and report the results; and perform such other duties as shall be specified by the chair of the meeting. Each report of an inspector shall be in writing and signed by him or her or by a majority of them if there be more than one inspector acting at such meeting. If there is more than one inspector, the report of a majority shall be the report of the inspectors. The report of the inspector or inspectors on the number of shares represented at the meeting and the results of the voting shall be prima facie evidence thereof.

To be eligible to be a nominee for election or reelection as a director of the Corporation, the prospective nominee nominated by a shareholder pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) of this Article III, or someone acting on such prospective nominee's behalf, must deliver (in accordance with any applicable time periods prescribed for delivery of notice under this Bylaw) to the Secretary at the principal executive office of the Corporation a written questionnaire with respect to the background and qualification of such person and the background of any other person or entity on whose behalf the nomination is being made (which questionnaire shall be provided by the Secretary upon written request). The prospective nominee must also provide a written representation and agreement, in the form provided by the Secretary upon written request, that such prospective nominee (A) is not and will not become a party to (1) any agreement, arrangement or understanding with, and has not given any commitment or assurance to, any person or entity as to how such prospective nominee, if elected as a director of the Corporation, will act or vote on any issue or question (a "Voting Commitment") that has not been disclosed to the Corporation, or (2) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such prospective nominee's ability to comply, if elected as a director of the Corporation, with such prospective nominee's fiduciary duties under applicable law, or(3) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity other than the Corporation with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification in connection with service or action as a director that has not been disclosed therein; and (B) would be in compliance if elected as a director of the Corporation, and will comply with all applicable corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality and stock ownership and trading policies and guidelines of the Corporation.

(b)    Any nominations by shareholders pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) of this Article III shall be made pursuant to notice in writing, delivered or mailed to the Secretary and received at the principal executive office of the Corporation not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the shareholder must be received not earlier than the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the meeting is first made. In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a shareholder's notice as described above. Such shareholder's notice shall set forth (i) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a Director, (A) all information relating to such person that would be required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of Directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act (including such person's written consent to being named as a nominee and to serving as a Director if elected) and (B) a description of all direct and indirect compensation and other material monetary agreements, arrangements and understandings during the past three years, and any other material relationships, between or among such shareholder and beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is being made, and their respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, on the one hand, and each proposed nominee, and his or her respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, on the other hand, including, without limitation all information that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Rule 404 promulgated under Regulation S-K if the shareholder making the nomination and any beneficial owner on whose behalf the nomination is made, if any, or any affiliate or associate thereof or person acting in concert therewith, were the "registrant" for purposes of such rule and the nominee were a director or executive officer of such registrant; (ii) as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner on whose behalf the nomination is made, and any affiliate or associate (each within the current meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act for purposes of these Bylaws) of such shareholder or beneficial owner, and any person with whom such shareholder or beneficial owner (or any of their respective affiliates or associates) is acting in concert (A) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of such shareholder and of such beneficial owner, (B) the class or series and number of shares of the Corporation's stock which are, directly or indirectly, owned beneficially and of record, by such shareholder and such beneficial owner, (C) any Derivative Instrument directly or indirectly owned beneficially by such shareholder or beneficial owner and any other direct or indirect opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any increase or decrease in the value of shares of the Corporation, (D) any proxy, contract, arrangement, understanding, or relationship pursuant to which such shareholder or beneficial owner has a right to vote any shares of any security of the Corporation, (E) any short interest of such shareholder or beneficial owner in any security of the Corporation (for purposes of this Bylaw a person shall be deemed to have a short interest in a security if such person directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, has the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any decrease in the value of the subject security), (F) any rights to dividends on the shares of the Corporation owned beneficially by such shareholder or beneficial owner that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of the Corporation, (G) any proportionate interest in shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments held, directly or indirectly, by a general or limited partnership in which such shareholder or beneficial owner is a general partner or, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns an interest in a general partner, (H) any performance-related fees (other than an asset-based fee) that such shareholder or beneficial owner is entitled to based on any increase or decrease in the value of shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments, if any, as of the date of such notice, including without limitation any such interests held by members of such shareholder's or beneficial owner's immediate family sharing the same household (which information shall be supplemented by such shareholder and beneficial owner not later than 10 days after the record date for the meeting to disclose such ownership as of the record date), and (I) any other information relating to such shareholder and beneficial owner that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for, as applicable, the proposal and/or for the election of directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (iii) a representation that the shareholder 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 propose such nomination; and (iv) a representation as to whether the shareholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends, or is or intends to be part of a group that intends, (A) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation's outstanding capital stock required to elect the nominee and/or (B) otherwise to solicit proxies from shareholders in support of such nomination. At the request of the Board of Directors, any person nominated by the Board of Directors for election as a Director shall furnish to the Secretary that information required to be set forth in a shareholder's notice of nomination to be considered pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) of this Article III which pertains to the nominee. The Corporation may require any such proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent Director of the Corporation or that could be material to a reasonable shareholder's understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee.

(c)    No person shall be eligible for election as a Director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Restated Articles or these Bylaws, the chair of the meeting may, if the facts warrant, determine that a nomination pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) of this Article III was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed in this Bylaw; and if the chair should so determine, the chair shall so declare to the meeting, and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3, a shareholder nomination pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) of this Article III shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Bylaw; provided, however, that any references in these Bylaws to the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to nominations to be considered pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) of this Bylaw.

Section 4.    Shareholder Nominations Included in the Corporation’s Proxy Materials.

(a)     Inclusion of Nominee in Proxy Statement. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4, if expressly requested in the relevant Nomination Notice (as defined below), the Corporation shall include in its proxy statement for any annual meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected, the name of (which shall also be included on the Corporation’s form of proxy and ballot), and the Required Information (as defined below) relating to, any person nominated for election to the Board of Directors by any Eligible Holder (as defined below) or group of up to 20 Eligible Holders (as determined pursuant to Section 4(c)) that, in the case of each of the nominee and the Eligible Holder(s), has (individually and collectively, in the case of a group of Eligible Holders) satisfied, as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee, acting in good faith, all applicable conditions and complied with all applicable procedures and other requirements set forth in this Section 4 (any such nominee, a “Nominee”, and any such Eligible Holder or group of Eligible Holders, including each member thereof to the extent the context requires, a “Nominating Shareholder”). The “Required Information” shall consist of the following:

(i)disclosure about the Nominee and the Nominating Shareholder required under the rules of the SEC or other applicable law, including the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, or the rules or regulations of any stock exchange on which the Corporation’s securities are traded, to be included in the proxy statement;

(ii)any statement included by the Nominating Shareholder in the Nomination Notice for inclusion in the proxy statement in support of the Nominee’s election to the Board of Directors (subject, without limitation, to Section 4(e)), if such statement does not exceed 500 words; and

(iii)any other information that the Corporation or the Board of Directors determines, in their discretion, to include in the proxy statement relating to the nomination of the Nominee, including, without limitation, any statement in opposition to the nomination and any of the information provided pursuant to this Section.

(a)Maximum Number of Nominees.

(i)The Corporation shall not be required to include in its proxy statement for an annual meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected more Nominees than that number of directors constituting 20% of the total number of directors of the Corporation on the last day on which a Nomination Notice may be submitted for such annual meeting pursuant to this Section 4 (rounded down to the nearest whole number, but not less than two) (the “Maximum Number”). The “total number of directors of the Corporation” shall be the number of authorized seats of the Board of Directors, including vacancies. The Maximum Number for a particular annual meeting shall be reduced by: (1) the number of Nominees for such annual meeting who are subsequently withdrawn or that the Board of Directors itself decides to nominate for election at such annual meeting and (2) the number of incumbent directors who had been Nominees with respect to any of the preceding two annual meetings of shareholders at which directors were elected. In the event that one or more vacancies for any reason occurs on the Board of Directors after the deadline set forth in Section 4(d) below for submission of a Nomination Notice but before the date of the annual meeting, and the Board of Directors decides to reduce the size of the board in connection therewith, the Maximum Number for such annual meeting shall be calculated based on the total number of directors of the Corporation as so reduced.

(ii)Any Nominating Shareholder submitting more than one Nominee pursuant to this Section 4 for any annual meeting of shareholders shall rank its Nominees based on the order that such Nominating Shareholder desires such Nominees to be selected for inclusion in the Corporation’s proxy statement in the event that the total number of Nominees submitted by all Nominating Shareholders pursuant to this Section 4 exceeds the Maximum Number. In the event that the total number of Nominees submitted by all Nominating Shareholders pursuant to this Section 4 for any annual meeting exceeds the Maximum Number for such annual meeting, the highest ranking Nominee from each Nominating Shareholder will be selected for inclusion in the Corporation’s proxy statement until the Maximum Number is reached, going in order of the amount (largest to smallest) of the ownership position as disclosed in each Nominating Shareholder’s Nomination Notice, with the process repeated as many times as necessary, following the same order each time, if the Maximum Number is not reached after one Nominee has been selected from each Nominating Shareholder. If, after the deadline for submitting a Nomination Notice as set forth in Section 4(d), a Nominating Shareholder becomes ineligible or withdraws its nomination or a Nominee becomes unwilling to serve on the Board of Directors, whether before or after the mailing of the definitive proxy statement, then the nomination shall be disregarded, and the Corporation: (A) shall not be required to include in its proxy statement or on any ballot or form of proxy the disregarded Nominee or any successor or replacement nominee proposed by the Nominating Shareholder or by any other Nominating Shareholder and (B) may otherwise communicate to its shareholders, including without limitation by amending or supplementing its proxy statement or ballot or form of proxy, that the Nominee will not be included as a Nominee in the proxy statement or on any ballot or form of proxy and will not be voted on at the annual meeting.

(b)Eligibility of Nominating Shareholder.

(i)An “Eligible Holder” is a person who has either (A) been a record holder of the shares of Common Stock used to satisfy the eligibility requirements in this Section 4(c) continuously for the three-year period specified in Subsection (ii) below or (B) provides to the Secretary of the Corporation, within the time period referred to in Section 4(d), evidence of continuous ownership of such shares for such three-year period from one or more securities intermediaries in a form that the Board of Directors or its designee, acting in good faith, determines would be deemed acceptable for purposes of a shareholder proposal under Rule 14a-8(b)(2) under the Exchange Act (or any successor rule).

(ii)An Eligible Holder or group of up to 20 Eligible Holders (as determined pursuant to this Section 4(c)) may submit a nomination in accordance with this Section 4 only if the person or group has continuously owned the Minimum Number (as defined below) throughout the three-year period preceding and including the date of submission of the Nomination Notice, and continues to own the Minimum Number through the date of the annual meeting. For purposes of satisfying the ownership requirements of this Section 4(c), two or more funds (i) under common management and investment control, (ii) under common management and funded primarily by a single employer or (iii) a “group of investment companies,” as such term is defined in Section 14(d)(1)(G)(ii) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (such funds together under each of (i), (ii) and (iii) comprising a “Qualifying Fund”) shall be treated as one Eligible Holder if such Eligible Holder shall provide together with the Nomination Notice documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation. In the event of a nomination by a group of Eligible Holders, any and all requirements and obligations for an individual Nominating Shareholder that are set forth in this Section 4 shall apply to each member of such group; provided, however, that, for purposes of determining whether the group owns the Minimum Number, the ownership of the group shall be aggregated. Should any shareholder withdraw from a group of Eligible Holders at any time prior to the annual meeting of shareholders, the group of Eligible Holders shall thereafter only be deemed to own the shares held by the remaining members of the group.

(iii)The “Minimum Number” means shares of Common Stock constituting at least 3% of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the most recent date for which such amount is given in any filing by the Corporation with the SEC prior to the submission of the Nomination Notice.

(iv)For purposes of this Section 4, an Eligible Holder “owns” only those outstanding shares of the Corporation as to which the Eligible Holder possesses both: (A) the full voting and investment rights pertaining to the shares; and (B) the full economic interest in (including the opportunity for profit and risk of loss on) such shares; provided that the number of shares calculated in accordance with clauses (A) and (B) shall not include any shares: (1) sold by such Eligible Holder or any of its affiliates in any transaction that has not been settled or closed (including any short sale), (2) borrowed by such Eligible Holder or any of its affiliates for any purpose or purchased by such Eligible Holder or any of its affiliates pursuant to an agreement to resell, or (3) subject to any option, warrant, forward contract, swap, contract of sale, other derivative or similar agreement entered into by such Eligible Holder or any of its affiliates, whether any such instrument or agreement is to be settled with shares or with cash based on the notional amount or value of outstanding shares of the Corporation, in any such case which instrument or agreement has, or is intended to have, or if exercised by either party thereto would have, the purpose or effect of: (x) reducing in any manner, to any extent or at any time in the future, such Eligible Holder’s or any of its affiliates’ full right to vote or direct the voting of any such shares, and/or (y) hedging, offsetting, or altering to any degree, gain or loss arising from the full economic ownership of such shares by such Eligible Holder or any of its affiliates. An Eligible Holder “owns” shares held in the name of a nominee or other intermediary so long as the Eligible Holder retains the right to instruct how the shares are voted with respect to the election of directors and possesses the full economic interest in the shares. An Eligible Holder’s ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which the Eligible Holder has delegated any voting power by means of a proxy, power of attorney, or other similar instrument or arrangement that is revocable at any time by the Eligible Holder. An Eligible Holder’s ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which the Eligible Holder has loaned such shares provided that the Eligible Holder has the power to recall such loaned shares on five business days’ notice and has recalled such loaned shares as of the date of the Nomination Notice and holds such shares through the date of the annual meeting. For purposes of this Section 4, the terms “owned,” “owning” and other variations of the word “own” shall have correlative meanings. Whether outstanding shares of the Corporation are “owned” for these purposes shall be determined by the Board of Directors. The terms “affiliate” or “affiliates” shall have the meanings ascribed thereto under the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act.

(v)No person shall be permitted to be in more than one group constituting a Nominating Shareholder, and no single shareholder constituting a Nominating Shareholder may be a member of any group constituting a Nominating Shareholder. If any person appears as a member of more than one group, it shall be deemed to be a member of the group that has the largest ownership position as reflected in the Nomination Notice.

(c)Nomination Notice. To nominate a Nominee pursuant to this Section 4, a Nominating Shareholder must, not less than 120 days nor more than 150 days prior to the first anniversary of the date that the Corporation mailed its proxy statement for the prior year’s annual meeting of shareholders, deliver to the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive office of the Corporation all of the following information and documents (collectively, the “Nomination Notice”); provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 after the anniversary of the prior year’s annual meeting, the Nomination Notice must be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation in the manner provided herein not less than 120 days nor more than 150 days prior to the current year’s annual meeting or not later than the tenth day following the date on which the Corporation first publicly announced or disclosed the date of the applicable annual meeting:

Section 8.    Notice. Notice of any special meeting of the Board or committee shall be given at least twenty-four hours previously thereto by telephone or by electronic transmission. Any Director may waive notice of any meeting. The attendance of a Director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

A determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the shareholders is effective and shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting, unless the Board fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting, which it shall do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date fixed for the original meeting.
