Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

Effective as of March 19, 2015, MGM Resorts International (the “Company”) amended Article I, Sections 5 and 8 of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaw Amendment”) to adopt a majority voting standard for the election of directors in uncontested elections. The new majority voting standard provides that to be elected in an uncontested election, a director nominee must receive a majority of the votes cast in the election such that the number of shares properly cast “for” the nominee exceeds the number of votes properly cast “against” that nominee. In contested elections where the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the voting standard will continue to be a plurality of votes cast.

In connection with the Bylaw Amendment, the Company also amended Section II of its Corporate Governance Guidelines to require an incumbent director who fails to receive the required number of votes in an uncontested election to tender his or her resignation to the Board. The Corporate Governance Guidelines, as amended, provide that the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) will assess the appropriateness of such nominee continuing to serve as a director and will recommend to the Board the action to be taken with respect to such tendered resignation. The Corporate Governance Guidelines require that the Board publicly disclose its decision and rationale with respect to the tendered resignation within 90 days following certification of the stockholder vote.

The foregoing descriptions of the amendments to the Amended and Restated Bylaws and the Corporate Governance Guidelines do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended, that are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference herein, and to the Corporate Governance Guidelines, as amended, which are available on the Company’s website at www.mgmresorts.com/corporategovernance under the caption “Corporate Governance Guidelines.” Except to the extent explicitly stated herein, the information on the Company’s website is not incorporated herein by reference.

(As of March 19, 2015)

Article I

Stockholders

Section 1. Place of Meeting. All meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place, either within or without the State of Delaware, as may be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors.

Section 2. Voting. Stockholders shall be entitled to vote at meetings either in person or by proxy. In any such voting, each stockholder shall be entitled to vote his shares of stock in accordance with his own interests and without regard to the interests of other stockholders. Each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock registered in his name on the books of the corporation on the record date set by the Board of Directors.

Section 3. Quorum. Any number of stockholders together holding at least a majority of the stock issued and outstanding, who shall be present in person or represented by proxy at any meeting duly called, shall be requisite to and shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except as otherwise provided by law, by the certificate of incorporation or by these bylaws.

Section 4. Adjournment of Meetings. If less than a quorum shall be in attendance at the time for which a meeting shall have been called, the meeting may be adjourned from time to time by the Chairman of the meeting or a majority vote of the stockholders present or represented by proxy, without any notice other than by announcement at the meeting (if the adjournment is for 30 days or less), until a quorum shall attend. Any meeting at which a quorum is present may also be adjourned, in like manner, for such time or upon such calls as may be determined by vote. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall attend, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called.

Section 5. Annual Elections of Directors. The annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors and the transaction of other business shall be held on such date and at such time as may be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors. If any date so determined shall be a legal holiday in the place at which the meeting is to be held, the meeting shall be held on the next succeeding business day. At each annual meeting the stockholders shall vote by ballot to elect a Board of Directors and at any such meeting such other corporate business as may properly come before the meeting may be transacted. The Board of Directors may postpone, reschedule, adjourn, recess or cancel any annual meeting previously scheduled by the Board of Directors.

Section 6. List of Stockholders. A full list of the stockholders entitled to vote at each meeting of stockholders, arranged in alphabetical order, with the residence of each and the number of shares held by each, shall be prepared by the Secretary and kept at the principal place of business of the corporation at least ten (10) days before the meeting of stockholders, and shall at all times during

the usual hours of business during such period be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting. 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.

Section 7. Special Meeting – How Called. Special meetings of the stockholders may be called: (a) by the Chairman of the Board; (b) upon requisition in writing therefor, stating the purposes thereof, delivered to the Chairman of the Board or the Secretary and signed either by a majority of the directors or by the holders of at least 10% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company; or (c) by the resolution of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may postpone, reschedule, adjourn, recess or cancel any special meeting previously scheduled by the Board of Directors.

Section 8. Manner of Voting at Stockholders’ Meetings. At all meetings of stockholders, all questions, except the question of an amendment of the bylaws, the election of directors, and all such other questions, the manner of deciding of which is specially regulated by any applicable law or regulation, shall be determined by a majority vote of the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy. Each director shall be elected by a “majority of votes cast” (as defined herein) to hold office until the next annual meeting, unless the election is contested, in which case directors shall be elected by a plurality of votes properly cast. An election shall be contested if, as determined by the Board of Directors, the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected. For the purposes of this Section 8, a “majority of votes cast” means that the number of votes properly cast “for” a director nominee exceeds the number of votes properly cast “against” and/or “withheld” with respect to that director nominee. Abstentions and broker non-votes do not count as votes “against” and have no effect with respect to the election of directors. Voting for the election of directors shall be by ballot. All other voting shall be viva voce, unless otherwise provided by the law, the Chairman of the meeting or these bylaws.

Section 9. Notice of all Stockholders Meetings. Notice of each annual and special meeting, stating the place, date, and time of the meeting and, in the case of special meetings, the nature of the business to be considered, shall be given by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting at his post office address as it appears on the stock records of the corporation, except as otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws. No business other than that stated or included in the notice shall be transacted at any special meeting of stockholders.

Section 10. Closing Books. The Chairman of the Board or any officer designated by the Board of Directors may close the transfer books of the corporation not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date specified for any annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Section 11. Consent in Lieu of Meeting. Any action which is required or may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting in accordance with the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

Section 12. Notice of Stockholder Nominations and Other Business.

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(1) Subject to Section 12(c)(4) of Article I of these bylaws, nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the corporation and the proposal of other business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (A) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (B) by any stockholder of the corporation who (i) was a stockholder of record of the corporation at the time the notice required by this Section 12 is delivered to the Secretary of the corporation and at the time of the annual meeting, (ii) is entitled to vote at the meeting, and (iii) complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 12 as to such business or nomination. Clause (B) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or submit other business for action at any annual meeting of stockholders, other than matters properly brought before the meeting pursuant to notice given under Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and included in the corporation’s notice of meeting.

(2) Without qualification or limitation of any other requirement, for any nominations or any other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (B) of the first sentence of paragraph (a)(1) of this Section 12, the stockholder must have given sufficient, timely notice thereof (including, in the case of nominations, the completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement required by Section 13 of Article I of these bylaws) in writing to the Secretary of the corporation and any such proposed business must constitute a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day nor later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting (provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than seventy (70) days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is less than one hundred (100) days prior to the date of such annual meeting, the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the corporation). In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

(3) To be sufficient, a stockholder’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 12 must set forth: (A) as to each person, if any, whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director (i) all information relating to such person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of such persons as directors in a contested election, or as is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, (ii) such person’s written consent to being named as a nominee and to serving as a director

if elected and (iii) 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, on the one hand. such stockholder and any other beneficial owner, if any, of such stock, and their respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, and, on the other hand, each proposed nominee, and his or her respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, including, without limitation all information that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 promulgated under Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act if the stockholder 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; (B) if the notice relates to any business, other than a nomination of a person for election as a director, that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, 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 bylaws of the corporation, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, and a description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings between such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder; and (C) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address (in the case of the stockholder, as they appear on the corporation’s books), (ii) (a) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock or other securities of the corporation which are, directly or indirectly, owned beneficially and of record by such person, (b) any option, warrant, convertible security, stock appreciation right, or similar right with an exercise or conversion privilege or (c) any option or right with a settlement payment or mechanism at a price related to any class or series of shares, or other securities, of the corporation or any subsidiary of the corporation with a value derived in whole or in part from the value of any class or series of shares, or other securities, of the corporation or any subsidiary of the corporation, or any derivative or synthetic arrangement having the characteristics of a long position in any class or series of shares, or other securities, of the corporation or any subsidiary of the corporation, or any contract, derivative, swap or other transaction or series of transactions designed to produce economic benefits and risks that correspond substantially to the ownership of any class or series of shares, or other securities, of the corporation or any subsidiary of the corporation, including due to the fact that the value of such contract, derivative, swap or other transaction or series of transactions is determined by reference to the price, value or volatility of any class or series of shares, or other securities, of the corporation, or any subsidiary of the corporation, whether or not such instrument, contract or right shall be subject to settlement in the underlying class or series of shares, or other securities, of the corporation or any subsidiary of the corporation, through the delivery of cash or other property, or otherwise (a “Derivative Instrument”), directly or indirectly owned beneficially by such person 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 person has a right to vote any shares of any security of the corporation, (e) any agreement, arrangement, understanding or relationship, including any

repurchase or similar so-called “stock borrowing” agreement or arrangement, engaged in, directly or indirectly, by such stockholder, the purpose or effect of which is to mitigate loss to, reduce the economic risk (of ownership or otherwise) of any class or series of the shares of the corporation by, manage the risk of share price changes for, or increase or decrease the voting power of, such stockholder with respect to any class or series of the shares of the corporation, or which provides, directly or indirectly, the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any decrease in the price or value of any class or series of the shares, or other securities, of the corporation or any subsidiary of the corporation, (f) any rights to dividends or other distributions on the shares of the capital stock of the corporation owned by such person 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 stockholder is a general partner or, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns an interest in a general partner of such a general or limited partnership or in which any members of such stockholder’s immediate family have an interest, and (h) any performance-related fees (other than an asset-based fee) that such person 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, (iii) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the nomination or proposal between or among such person, any of its respective affiliates or associates, and any others acting in concert with any of the foregoing, (iv) a representation that the stockholder 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 business or nomination, (v) a representation whether the stockholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends to be or is part of a group which intends (a) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least ten percent (10%) of the stock entitled to vote, (b) otherwise to solicit proxies from stockholders in support of such proposal or nomination, and (vi) any other information relating to such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, 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. With respect to each person, if any, whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection to the Board of Directors, a stockholder must, in addition to the matters set forth above, include the completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement required by Section 13 of Article I of these bylaws). The corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require 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 stockholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee in relation to such stockholder or beneficial owner. Without limitation on any obligation of any such stockholder to update material information, the information required by clauses (C)(ii) and (C)(iii) of paragraph (a)(3) of this Section 12 shall be updated by such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, not later than ten (10) days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting to disclose such information as of that record date.

(4) Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph (a)(2) of this Section 12 to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the corporation at an annual meeting is increased and there is no public announcement by the corporation naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size

of the increased Board of Directors at least one hundred (100) days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 12 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 tenth (10th) day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the corporation.

(b) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting (1) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (2) provided that the Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the corporation who (i) is a stockholder of record of the corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 12 is delivered to the Secretary of the corporation and at the time of the special meeting, (ii) is entitled to vote at the meeting and upon such election, and (iii) complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 12 as to such nomination. Subject to Section 12(c)(4) of Article I of these bylaws, in the event a special meeting of stockholders is duly called for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such stockholder may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the corporation’s notice of meeting, if the stockholder’s notice containing the information required by paragraph (a)(3) hereof with respect to any nomination (including the completed and signed questionnaire, representation and agreement required by Section 13 of Article I of these bylaws) shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such special meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such special meeting is less than one hundred (100) days prior to the date of such special meeting, the tenth (10th) day following the day 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. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

(1) Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12 or the certificate of incorporation of the corporation shall be eligible to be elected at an annual or special meeting of stockholders of the corporation to serve as directors and only such other 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 12. Except as otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, the person presiding at the meeting of stockholders shall have the power (A) to determine whether a nomination or any other business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12 (including whether the stockholder or beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made solicited (or is part of a group which solicited) or did not so solicit, as the

case may be, proxies in support of such stockholder’s nominee or proposal in compliance with such stockholder’s representation as required by clause (C)(v) of paragraph (a)(3) of this Section 12) and (B) if any proposed nomination or other business was not made or proposed in compliance with this Section 12, to declare that no action shall be taken on such nomination or other proposal and that such nomination shall be disregarded or that such proposed other business shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the annual or special meeting of stockholders of the corporation to present a nomination or other business, such nomination shall be disregarded and such proposed other business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the corporation. For purposes of this Section 12, to be considered a qualified representative of a stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such stockholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such stockholder to act for such stockholder as proxy at the meeting of stockholders and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting of stockholders.

(2) For purposes of this Section 12, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a 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 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12, a stockholder 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 Section 12; provided however, that any references in these bylaws to particular provisions of the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit any requirements under the Exchange Act applicable to nominations or proposals as to any other business to be considered pursuant to this Section 12 but, in addition to satisfying any such requirements, compliance with this Section 12 shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or submit other business, as applicable (other than business properly brought before a meeting after inclusion in the proxy statement of the Board of Directors under and in compliance with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, as may be amended from time to time).

(4) Nothing in these bylaws shall limit any rights (A) of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, or (B) of the holders of any class or series of stock having a preference over the common stock of the corporation as to dividends or upon liquidation to elect directors in accordance with the certificate of incorporation of the corporation. Nothing in these bylaws shall be construed to permit any stockholder, or give any stockholder the right, to include or have disseminated or described in the corporation’s proxy statement, any nomination of director or directors or any other business proposal (but stockholders shall have such rights to the extent separately provided by Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act).

Section 13. Submission of Questionnaire, Representation and Agreement. To be eligible to be a nominee for election or reelection as a director of the corporation, a person must deliver (in accordance with the time periods prescribed for delivery of notice under Section 12 of Article I

of these bylaws) to the Secretary at the principal executive offices 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 his nomination is being made (which questionnaire shall be provided by the Secretary upon written request), and a written representation and agreement (in the form provided by the Secretary upon written request) that such person (A) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with, and has not given any commitment or assurance to, any person or entity as to how such person, 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, (B) 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 (C) except to the extent specifically identified therein, 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 trading policies and guidelines applicable to directors of the corporation publicly disclosed to the date of such statement.

Section 14. Conduct of Meetings. 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 shall be announced at the meeting by the chairman of the meeting. The Board of Directors may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting 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 chairman of the meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene and (for any or no reason) to recess and/or adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, 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 chairman of the meeting, may 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 attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the chairman of the meeting shall determine; (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. The chairman at any meeting of stockholders, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting, shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if such chairman should so determine, such chairman shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

Article II

Section 12. Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

(a) In this Section 12:

(1) “Director or officer” means an individual who is or was a director or officer of the corporation and includes the estate or personal representative of such person.

(2) “Liability” means the obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine or expenses, including attorneys’ fees, reasonably incurred with respect to a proceeding.

(3) “Party” means an individual who was, is or is threatened to be made a party or who is otherwise involved in a proceeding.

(4) “Proceeding” means any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative, legislative or investigative, and whether formal or informal.

(b) The corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may be amended, any director or officer who is a party in a proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or, while a director or officer of the corporation, serves or served at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, manager, member, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, against all liability reasonably incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the corporation shall be required to indemnify a director or officer in connection with a proceeding (or part of a proceeding) commenced by the director or officer only in accordance with Section 12(d) below or if the commencement of the proceeding (or part of the proceeding) by the director or officer was authorized in the specific case by the Board of Directors of the corporation.

(c) The corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by law pay the expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by a director or officer in defending any proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding, provided, however, that, to the extent required by law, the payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall be made only following receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay all amounts advanced if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 12 or pursuant to any other bylaw, agreement or action by the Board of Directors or stockholders.

(d) If a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of any proceeding) or advancement of expenses under this Section 12 is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after a written claim for indemnification or advancement by a director or officer has been received by the corporation, the director or officer may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of the claim, and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting the claim. In any such action the corporation shall have the burden of proving that the director or officer is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses.

(e) The rights conferred by this Section 12 shall not be exclusive of any other rights a director or officer may have or in the future acquire under any statute, provision of the certificate of incorporation, bylaw, agreement or vote of the disinterested directors, stockholders or otherwise.

(f) For purposes of this Section 12, a director or officer is considered to be serving an employee benefit plan at the corporation’s request if the director or officer’s duties to the

corporation also impose duties on, or involve services by, the director or officer to the plan or to participants in or beneficiaries of the plan. A director or officer who acted in good faith and in a manner the director or officer reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. The term “fine” includes excise taxes assessed with respect to an employee benefits plan.

(g) The corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify or to advance expenses to any director or officer who serves or served at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, manager, member, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, shall be reduced by any amount the director or officer has collected as indemnification or advancement of expenses from the other entity.

(h) This Section shall not limit the right of the corporation, to the extent and in the manner permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than directors or officers when and as authorized by appropriate corporate action.

(i) Any repeal or modification of any provision or provisions of this Section shall not adversely affect any right or protection provided by any provision or provisions of this Section to any director or officer with respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of the repeal or modification.

(j) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing in this Section 12, the corporation shall not be obligated to pay the expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by a director in defending any proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding if (i) the director defending any such proceeding was nominated to the Board pursuant to a contractual right or agreement, and (ii) the material allegations of the complaint (or such other complaining document as the case may be) giving rise to the proceeding relate to a breach or breaches of the director’s fiduciary duties to the corporation and its stockholders in favor of, or in furtherance of the interests of, the person who, or entity that, nominated such director pursuant to the foregoing clause (i). In any case when the conditions of clauses (i) and (ii) are met, then advancement of such expenses shall be discretionary.
