Directors shall be elected at the annual meeting, and any other business may be transacted which is within the power of the stockholders and allowed by law; provided, however, that unless the notice of meeting, or the waiver of notice of such meeting, sets forth the general nature of any proposal to (i) approve or ratify a contract or transaction with a director or with a corporation, firm or association in which a director has an interest; (ii) amend the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation; (iii) approve a

reorganization or merger involving the Corporation; (iv) elect to wind up and dissolve the Corporation; or (v) effect a plan of distribution upon liquidation otherwise than in accordance with liquidation preferences of outstanding shares with liquidation preferences, no such proposal may be approved at an annual meeting.

Special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose whatsoever, unless otherwise prescribed by law, may be called at any time by the chairman of the board (if any), by the president, by the board of directors, by any two (2) directors, or by one or more stockholders holding not less than one-tenth (1/10) of the voting power of the Corporation. Upon request in writing specifying the general purpose of such meeting to the chairman of the board (if any), president, vice president or secretary, by any person entitled to call a special meeting of stockholders (other than the board of directors), the officer receiving such notice forthwith shall cause notice to be given to the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, in the manner provided in Section 4 of this Article, that a meeting will be held at the time requested by the person or persons requesting a meeting, which date shall be not less than thirty-five (35) nor more than sixty (60) days after the receipt by such officer of the request. No business shall be transacted at a special meeting unless its general purpose shall have been specified in the notice of such meeting; provided, however, that any business may be validly transacted if a quorum is present either in person or by proxy, and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the persons entitled to vote not present in person or by proxy signs a written waiver of notice, a consent to the holding of such meeting, or an approval of the minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents, or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

Section 4. NOTICE OF MEETINGS, ANNUAL OR SPECIAL. Except as otherwise provided by law, notice of all meetings of stockholders shall be given in writing to stockholders entitled to vote at the meetings by the secretary, or assistant secretary, or transfer agent (if so authorized by the board of directors) or in the case of the neglect or refusal or other failure so to do by such persons, by any director. A notice may be given to any stockholder either personally or by mail, or by other means of written communication, charges prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at the address of such stockholder appearing on the books of the Corporation or given by the stockholder to the Corporation for the purpose of notice. Notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be sent to each stockholder entitled thereto not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the meeting. The notice shall be deemed given at the time when delivered personally or when deposited in the mail or dispatched by other means of written communication. Such notice shall specify the place, the date and the hour of the meeting and (i) in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called; (ii) in the case of an annual meeting, those matters which the Corporation’s board of directors intends, at the time of the giving of the first of such notices, to present to the stockholders for action; and (iii) in the case of a meeting at which directors are to be elected, the names of nominees which the board of directors, at the time of the giving of the first of such notices, intends to present to the stockholders for election. Proof that notice was given shall be made by affidavit of the secretary, assistant secretary, transfer agent or other person who gives such notice, and such proof of notice shall be made a part of the minutes of the meeting. To extent provided by applicable law, such affidavit shall be prima facie evidence of the giving of such notice. A written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a stockholder at a meeting shall

constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when the person objects at the beginning of such meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened and except that attendance at a meeting is not a waiver of any right to object to the consideration of matters not included in the notice if such objection is especially made at the meeting. If any stockholder shall in person, by attorney thereunto duly authorized, or by a written communication waive notice of any meeting of stockholders, notice of such meeting need not be given such stockholder. It shall not be necessary to state in a notice of any meeting of stockholders as a purpose thereof any matter relating to the procedural aspects of the conduct of such meeting.

Section 5. PERSONS ENTITLED TO VOTE. If no record date is fixed by the board of directors pursuant to Section 6 of this Article, the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held; the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the date on which the board of directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 6. RECORD DATE.

(a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the board of directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

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

close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

(c) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 7. PRESIDING OFFICER. Unless the board of directors shall otherwise provide in advance of any meeting of stockholders, at each meeting of the stockholders the chairman of the board shall preside; or if none, or if absent or unable to act, the president shall preside; or in the case of the absence or inability to act of the chairman of the board and of the president, a vice president shall preside; or in the case of the absence of inability to act of the chairman of the board, president and a vice president, a director or stockholder, appointed by the stockholders at the meeting, shall preside.

Section 8. QUORUM. The presence at a meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business. The stockholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to do business until adjournment of such meeting, notwithstanding the withdrawal of such number of stockholders so as to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken, other than adjournment, is approved by at least a majority of the shares required to constitute a quorum. Except as otherwise required by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation or applicable law, directors of the Corporation shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors and in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders.

Section 9. ADJOURNED MEETINGS AND NOTICE THEREOF. Any annual or special meeting of the stockholders, whether or not a quorum is present, may be adjourned from time to time by a vote of the majority of the shares present in person or by proxy. When a meeting is adjourned for thirty (30) days or more, or if a new record date for the adjourned meeting is fixed by the board of directors, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to such stockholders of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting as in the case of any original meeting. When a meeting is adjourned for less than thirty (30) days, and a new record date is not fixed by the board of directors, it shall not be necessary to give any notice of the time and place of the adjourned meeting or of the business to be transacted thereat other than by announcement at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, provided that only business which might have been transacted at the original meeting may be conducted at such adjourned meeting.

Section 10. VOTING. Unless otherwise provided by law or in the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote is entitled to one vote for each share. Any holder of shares entitled to vote on any matter may vote part of such shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or vote them against the proposal. If a stockholder fails to specify the number of shares such stockholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the stockholder’s approving vote is with respect to all shares which such stockholder is entitled to vote.

Section 11. ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. Any action which, under any provision of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, may be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, (i) shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted; and (ii) shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded; provided, however, that unless the consents of all stockholders entitled to vote have been solicited in writing, if any action is approved by written consent of less than all stockholders entitled to vote, prompt notice shall be given (in the same manner as notice of meetings is to be given) of such action to all stockholders entitled to vote who did not consent in writing to such action; and provided, further, that directors may be elected by written consent only if such consent is unanimously given by all stockholders entitled to vote, except that action taken by stockholders to fill one or more vacancies on the board may be taken by written consent of a majority of the shares entitled to vote in such election.

Section 12. PROXIES. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy; provided, however, that no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after 3 years from its date, unless the proxy expressly provides for a longer period. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for him as a proxy pursuant to this section, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

(a) A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for him as proxy. Execution may be accomplished by the stockholder or his authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing his or her signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

(b) A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for him as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of a telegram, cablegram, or other means of electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission must either set forth or be

submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If it is determined that such telegrams, cablegrams or other electronic transmissions are valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information upon which they relied.

Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission created pursuant to this section may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally.

Section 13. LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS. It shall be the duty of the Secretary or other officer of the Corporation who shall have charge of its stock ledger, either directly or through another officer of the Corporation designated by him or through a transfer agent or transfer clerk appointed by the board of directors, to prepare, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of the stockholders at which directors of the Corporation are to be elected, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting, either at the place where the meeting is to be held or at another place within the city where the meeting is to be held if such other place is specified in the notice of the meeting. The list shall be produced at and for the duration of the meeting for inspection by any stockholder who shall be present thereat. The original or duplicate stock ledger shall be exclusive evidence of the stockholders entitled to examine such list or the books of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at such election.

The board may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. The directors may designate by resolution to any such committee any of the powers and authority of the board of directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation; provided, however, that no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to amending the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (except that a committee may, to the extent authorized in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of shares of stock adopted by the board of directors in accordance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, fix the designations and any of the preferences or rights of such shares relating to dividends, redemption, dissolution, any distribution of assets of the Corporation or the conversion into, or the exchange of such shares for, shares of any other class or classes or any other series of the same or any other class or classes of stock of the Corporation or fix the number of shares of any series of stock or authorize the increase or decrease of the shares of any series); adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation; recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property and assets; recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation of a dissolution; or amending these Bylaws; and, unless the resolution expressly so provides, no such committee shall have the power or authority to declare a dividend, to authorize the issuance of stock or to adopt a certificate of ownership and merger pursuant to Section 253 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The executive committee, if any, shall be composed of two (2) or more directors. The provisions of these Bylaws regarding notice and meetings of directors shall apply to all committees.

(d) To designate from time to time the person or persons who may sign or endorse checks, drafts, or other orders for payment of money, notes, or other evidences of indebtedness, issued in the name of, or payable to, the Corporation, and to prescribe the manner of collecting and depositing funds of the Corporation, and the manner of drawing of checks thereon.

(f) To prepare an annual report to be sent to the stockholders after the close of the fiscal or calendar year of the Corporation, which report shall comply with the requirements of law.

Section 2. TERM OF OFFICE. Each director shall hold office until the annual meeting of the stockholders next following his election and until his successor is elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, or resignation or removal in the manner hereinafter provided.

Section 3. QUORUM AND MANNER OF ACTING. A majority of the directors in office (but in no event less than one-third of the authorized number of directors) shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting, and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the board of directors. A majority of the directors present may adjourn any meeting from time to time. Notice of any adjourned meeting shall be given in the manner provided in Section 5 of this Article.

Section 4. VACANCIES. A vacancy in the board of directors exists in case of the happening of any of the following events:

All vacancies (other than vacancies created by removal of a director) may be filled by the majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Each director so elected shall hold office until his successor is elected at an annual, regular, or special meeting of the stockholders. The stockholders may, by vote or written consent of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote in election of directors, elect a director at any time to fill any vacancy not filled by the directors. If the board of directors accepts the resignation of a director tendered to take effect at a future time, the board of directors or the stockholders may elect a successor to take office when the resignation becomes effective. A reduction of the authorized number of directors does not remove any director prior to the expiration of his term of office.

If the address of a director is not shown on the records and is not readily ascertainable, notice shall be addressed to such director at the place and city in which the meetings of the directors are regularly held. Proof that notice was given shall be by affidavit of the chairman of the board, president, vice president, secretary or two (2) directors, or of the person acting under the direction of any of the foregoing, who gives such notice and such proof of notice shall be made a part of the minutes of the meeting. Notice of the time and place of holding an adjourned meeting shall be given to absent directors if the time fixed at the meeting which was adjourned for the adjourned meeting is more than twenty-four (24) hours after adjournment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, sufficient notice of a meeting of the board of directors to be held immediately following a stockholders meeting at which one or more directors is elected, may be given by announcement thereof at such stockholders’ meeting.

(d) At the meeting of the board of directors next following each annual meeting of the stockholders, the board shall elect officers.

(e) Notice of a meeting need not be given to any director who signs a waiver of notice or a consent to holding the meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof, whether before or after the meeting, or who attends the meeting without protesting, prior thereto or at its commencement, the lack of notice to such director. All such waivers, consents, or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

(f) Meetings of the directors may be held at any place within or with out the State of Delaware designated in the notice of the meeting or, if not stated in the notice or if there is no notice, designated by resolution of the board of directors.

(g) The members of the board of directors or of any committee thereof may participate in a meeting by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting by such means shall constitute presence in person at such a meeting.

Such action by written consent shall have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote of such directors.

Section 7. FEES AND COMPENSATION. One or more of the directors may, by resolution of the board of directors, receive a stated salary for services as director and may be allowed a fixed fee, with or without expenses, for attendance at each meeting. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any capacity as an officer, agent, employee or otherwise, and receiving compensation therefor.

Section 8. RESIGNATIONS. Any director of the Corporation may resign at any time by giving written notice to the board of directors. The resignation of any director shall take effect at the date of receipt of such notice or at any later date specified therein and, unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

Every owner of shares in the Corporation shall be entitled to have a certificate in such form, not inconsistent with the Certificate of Incorporation or any law, as shall be prescribed by the board of directors, certifying the number of shares and class or series owned by such stockholder in the Corporation. Every certificate for shares shall be signed by, or in the name of the Corporation signed by, the chairman or the vice chairman of the board, if any, the president or a vice president, and the chief financial officer or an assistant chief financial officer or treasurer or the secretary or an assistant secretary.

Section 3. LOST, STOLEN, DESTROYED OR MUTILATED CERTIFICATES. The holder of any shares of the Corporation shall immediately notify the Corporation of any loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the certificate therefor. The board of directors shall direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, or upon the surrender of any mutilated certificate, if the Corporation shall not theretofore have received notice that the certificate alleged to have been lost, destroyed or stolen has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser thereof, and the board of directors may, at its discretion, require the owner of the lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate or such owner’s legal representatives to give the Corporation a bond in such sum, limited or unlimited, in such form and with such surety or sureties as the board of directors shall, in its uncontrolled discretion, determine, to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against it on account of alleged loss, theft, or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate.

Subject to Section 3 of this Article, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify an indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if the initiation of such proceeding (or part thereof) by the indemnitee was authorized by the board of directors.

ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article or otherwise.

Section 3. CLAIMS. If a claim for indemnification or payment of expenses under this Article is not paid in full within sixty (60) days after a written claim therefor by the indemnitee has been received by the Corporation, the indemnitee may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the indemnitee was not entitled to the requested indemnification or payment of expenses under applicable law.

Section 4. NONEXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The rights conferred on any person by this Article shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the certificate of incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

The Corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify or advance expenses to any person who was or is serving at its request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity shall be reduced by any amount such person may collect as indemnification or advancement from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity.
