Business transacted at any special meeting of the stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice

Section 2.5      Record Date. In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting, or any adjournment of a meeting, of stockholders, or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, 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, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than 60 nor less than 15 days before the date of such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, and the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which t he board of directors adopts the resolution relating to such other purpose.

If, however, such a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice if the time and place are announced at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

A written waiver of notice of any such meeting signed by a stockholder or stockholders entitled to such notice, whether before, at or after the time stated in such notice, shall be equivalent to notice.

      (2)      For nominations or other business to be properly brought before the annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (b) of paragraph (A)(1) of this Section 2.11, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the corporation and such business must be a proper subject for stockholder action under the Delaware General Corporation Law. To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not less than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than 20 days, or delayed by more than 70 days, from such anniversary notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not later than the close of business following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.

     (3)      Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 2.11 to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the board of directors is increased and there is no public announcement naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased board of directors made by the corporation at least 80 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting, a stockholder's notice required by this paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 2.11 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the corporation.

(B)      Special Meeting of the Stockholders. Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected shall only be made (1) by or at the direction of the board of directors or (2) by any stockholder of the corporation who is entitled to vote at the meeting, who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this paragraph (B) and who is a stockholder of record at the time such notice is delivered to the secretary of the corporation. Nominations by stockholders of persons for election to the board of directors at such a special meeting of stockholders shall not be considered effective unless the stockholder's notice required by paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 2.11 is delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the later of the 75th day prior to such special meeting or the 10th day following the date on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the board of directors to be elected at such meeting.

     (1)      Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.11 shall be eligible to serve as directors and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.11.

     (2)      Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or this Section 2.11, the chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.11 and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with this Section 2.11 to declare that such defective proposal or nomination shall be disregarded.

     (3)      For purposes of this Section 2.11, "public announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
