A Delaware Corporation
PREAMBLE
     These bylaws (“bylaws”) are subject to, and governed by, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) and the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (“Certificate of Incorporation”), of Kitty Hawk, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”). In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of these bylaws and the mandatory provisions of the DGCL or the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, such provisions of the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation, as the case may be, will be controlling.
ARTICLE ONE: OFFICES
     1.1 Registered Office and Agent. The registered office and registered agent of the Corporation shall be as designated from time to time by the appropriate filing by the Corporation in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.
     1.2 Other Offices. The Corporation may also have offices at such other places, both within and without the State of Delaware, as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) may from time to time determine or as the business of the Corporation may require.
ARTICLE TWO: MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS
     2.1 Annual Meeting. An annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation shall be held each calendar year on such date and at such time as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice of the meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting. At such meeting, the stockholders shall elect directors and transact such other business as may be properly brought before the meeting.
     2.2 Special Meeting. A special meeting of the stockholders may be called by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors then serving, by the Chairman of the Board, or by any holder or holders of record of at least 25% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation then entitled to vote on any matter for which the respective special meeting is being called. A special meeting shall be held on such date and at such time as shall be designated by the person(s) calling the meeting and stated in the notice of the meeting or

1


 

in a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting. Only such business shall be transacted at a special meeting as may be stated or indicated in the notice of such meeting given in accordance with these bylaws or in a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting.
     2.3 Place of Meetings. An annual meeting of stockholders may be held at any place within or without the State of Delaware, or by means of remote communications, as, in each case, designated by the Board of Directors. A special meeting of stockholders may be held at any place within or without the State of Delaware, or by means of remote communications, as, in each case, designated in the notice of the meeting or a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting. Meetings of stockholders shall be held at the principal office of the Corporation unless another place is designated for meetings in the manner provided herein or the meeting is held by means of remote communication.
     2.4 Notice. Notice stating the place, if any, day, and time of each meeting of the stockholders and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at the meeting, and, in case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting by or at the direction of the Chairman of the Board, the Secretary, or the officer or person(s) calling the meeting, to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. If such notice is to be sent by mail, it shall be directed to such stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation, unless he shall have filed with the Secretary of the Corporation a written request that notices to him be mailed to some other address, in which case it shall be directed to him at such other address. Notice of any meeting of stockholders shall not be required to be given to any stockholder who shall attend such meeting in person or by proxy and shall not, at the beginning of such meeting, object to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, or who shall, either before or after the meeting, submit a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at the meeting are announced at the meeting at which adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the meeting is adjourned for more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the meeting was originally noticed, or a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the place, if any, date and time of the adjourned meeting and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting, shall be given in conformity herewith. At any adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the original meeting.
     2.5 Action Without a Meeting. Any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less

2


 

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. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.
     2.6 Notice of Stockholder Business; Nomination of Director Candidates.
(a) At annual meetings of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meetings (i) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting, (ii) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (iii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 2.6, who shall be entitled to vote at such meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.6.
(b) Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in these bylaws shall be eligible to serve as directors. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a meeting of stockholders (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (ii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 2.6, who shall be entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.6.
(c) A stockholder must give timely, written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation to nominate directors at an annual meeting pursuant to Section 2.6(b) hereof or to propose business to be brought before an annual or special meeting pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 2.6(a) hereof. To be timely in the case of an annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice must be received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not more than 180 days nor less than 90 days before the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. To be timely in the case of a special meeting or in the event that the date of the annual meeting is changed by more than 30 days from such anniversary date, a stockholder’s notice must be received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation no later than the close of business on the tenth day following the earlier of the day on which notice of the meeting date was mailed or public disclosure of the meeting date was made. For purposes of this Section 2.6(c), “public disclosure” 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth (i) with respect to each matter, if any, that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting, (ii) with respect to each person, if any, whom the

3


 

stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director, all information relating to such person (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director) that is required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (iii) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s records, of the stockholder proposing such business or nominating such persons (as the case may be), and the name and address of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal or nomination is made, (iv) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder of record and by the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal or nomination is made, and (v) any material interest or relationship that such stockholder of record and/or the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal or nomination is made may respectively have in such business or with such nominee. At the request of the Board of Directors, any person nominated for election as a director shall furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation the information required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in these bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted, and no person shall be nominated to serve as a director, at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.6. The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine that business was not properly brought before the meeting, or that a nomination was not made, in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these bylaws and, if he shall so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting, and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted and any defective nomination shall be disregarded. A stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 2.6.
     2.7 Voting List. At least 10 days before each meeting of stockholders, the Secretary or other officer of the Corporation who has charge of the Corporation’s stock ledger, either directly or through another officer appointed by him or through a transfer agent appointed by the Board of Directors, shall prepare a complete list of stockholders entitled to vote thereat, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and number of shares of capital stock registered in the name of each stockholder. For a period of 10 days prior to such meeting, such list shall be (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network with the information required to gain access to such list provided in the notice of the meeting, or (ii) kept on file at the principal place of business of the Corporation and shall be open to examination by any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours. Such list shall be produced at such meeting and kept at the meeting, or if such meeting is held solely by means of remote communication, on a reasonably accessible network with the information to access such list provided in the notice of the meeting, at all times during

4


 

such meeting and may be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting as provided by law.
     2.8 Quorum. The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote on a matter, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these bylaws. If a quorum shall not be present, in person or by proxy, at any meeting of stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat who are present, in person or by proxy (or, if no stockholder entitled to vote is present, any officer of the Corporation), may adjourn the meeting to another place, if any, date or time from time to time without notice other than announcement at the meeting (unless the Board of Directors, after such adjournment, fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting), until a quorum shall be present, in person or by proxy. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present, in person or by proxy, any business may be transacted which may have been transacted at the original meeting had a quorum been present; provided that, if the adjournment is for more than 30 days or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting.
     2.9 Required Vote; Withdrawal of Quorum. When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast for and against the question, shall decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the question is one on which, by express provision of law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these bylaws, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question; provided, however, that directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares of capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors who are present, in person or by proxy. The stockholders present at a duly constituted meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.
     2.10 Method of Voting; Proxies. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or by law, each outstanding share of capital stock, regardless of class, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot. At any meeting of stockholders, every stockholder having the right to vote may vote either in person or by a proxy executed in writing by the stockholder or by a transmission permitted by law or by his duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Each 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 three years from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. If no date is stated in a proxy, such proxy shall be presumed to have been executed on the date of the meeting at which it is to be voted. Each proxy shall be revocable unless expressly provided therein to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power or unless otherwise made irrevocable by law. Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission created pursuant to this paragraph may be substituted or used in lieu of the original for any and all purposes for which the original could be used, provided that such copy,

5


 

facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original.
     2.11 Record Date. For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled (a) to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, (b) to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or (c) to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion, or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, for any such determination of stockholders, such date in any case to be not more than 60 days and not less than 10 days prior to such meeting nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. If no record date is fixed:
     (i) The record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.
     (ii) The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.
     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.
     2.12 Conduct of Meeting. The Chairman of the Board, if such position has been filled, shall preside at all meetings of stockholders, and, if such position has not been filled or if the Chairman of the Board is absent or otherwise unable to act, the Chief Executive Officer, if such office has been filed, shall preside at all meetings of stockholders. In the absence or inability to act of both the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer, the President shall preside at all meetings of stockholders. The Secretary shall keep the records of each meeting of stockholders. In the absence or inability to act of any such officer, such officer’s duties shall be performed by the officer given the authority to act for such absent or non-acting officer under these bylaws or by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors, or if no officer has been given such authority, by some person appointed at the meeting. The chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seem to him or her in order. The chairman shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another place, if any, date and time. The date and time of the opening and closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at the meeting shall be announced at the meeting.

6


 

     2.13 Inspectors. The Board of Directors may, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors to act at such meeting or any adjournment thereof. If any of the inspectors so appointed shall fail to appear or act, the chairman of the meeting shall, or if inspectors shall not have been appointed, the chairman of the meeting may, appoint one or more inspectors. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath to execute faithfully the duties of inspector at such meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability. The inspectors shall determine the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding and the voting power of each, the number of shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the validity and effect of proxies and shall receive votes, ballots, or consents, hear and determine all challenges and questions arising in connection with the right to vote, count, and tabulate all votes, ballots, or consents, determine the results, and do such acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders. On request of the chairman of the meeting, the inspectors shall make a report in writing of any challenge, request, or matter determined by them and shall execute a certificate of any fact found by them. No director or candidate for the office of director shall act as an inspector of an election of directors. Inspectors need not be stockholders.
ARTICLE THREE: DIRECTORS
     3.1 Management. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.
     3.2 Number; Qualification; Election; Term. The Board of Directors shall consist of no less than one director (plus such number of directors as may be elected from time to time pursuant to the terms of any series of preferred stock that may be issued and outstanding from time to time). Subject to the preceding sentence, the number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall from time to time be fixed and determined by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors. Each director shall hold office until his successor shall have been duly elected and qualified.
     3.3 Change in Number. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the entire Board of Directors shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director.
     3.4 Citizenship Requirements of Officers and Directors. Persons who are not U.S. Citizens (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) are not qualified to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation.
     3.5 Vacancies. Any or all directors may be removed, with or without cause, at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of each class of capital stock then entitled to vote in person or by proxy at an election of such directors, provided that notice of the intention to act upon such matter shall have been given in the notice calling such meeting. Newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors

7


 

and any vacancies occurring in the Board of Directors caused by death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal or other termination from office of any directors may be filled solely by the vote of a majority of the directors then in office, though less than a quorum. Each successor director so chosen shall hold office until his respective successor shall have been duly elected and qualified.
     3.6 Chairman of the Board. The Board of Directors shall elect a Chairman of the Board, who shall be a member of the Board of Directors but not an officer of the Corporation. If present, the Chairman of the Board shall preside at each meeting of the Board of Directors. He shall advise and counsel with the Chief Executive Officer and, in his absence, with other executives of the Corporation, and shall perform such other duties as may from time to time be assigned to him by the Board of Directors.
     3.7 Meetings of Directors. The directors may hold their meetings and may have an office and keep the records of the Corporation, except as otherwise provided by law, in such place or places within or without the State of Delaware as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine or as shall be specified in the notice of such meeting or duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting.
     3.8 First Meeting. Each newly elected Board of Directors may hold its first meeting for the purpose of organization and the transaction of business, if a quorum is present, immediately after and at the same place as the annual meeting of stockholders, and no notice of such meeting shall be necessary.
     3.9 Election of Officers. At the first meeting of the Board of Directors after each annual meeting of stockholders at which a quorum shall be present, the Board of Directors shall elect the officers of the Corporation.
     3.10 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors shall be held at such times and places as shall be designated from time to time by resolution of the Board of Directors. Notice of such regular meetings shall not be required.
     3.11 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of Directors shall be held whenever called by the Chairman of the Board or any director.
     3.12 Notice. The Secretary shall give notice of each special meeting to each director at least 24 hours before the meeting. Notice of any such meeting need not be given to any director who, either before or after the meeting, submits a signed waiver of notice or who shall attend such meeting without protesting, prior to or at its commencement, the lack of notice to him. The purpose of any special meeting shall be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting.
     3.13 Telephone Meetings. Members of the Board of Directors and members of a committee of the Board of Directors may participate in and hold a meeting of such Board of Directors or committee by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which persons participating in the meeting can

8


 

hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section shall constitute presence in person at such meeting, except where a person participates in the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.
     3.14 Action Without a Meeting. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors, or of any committee of the Board of Directors, may be taken without a meeting if all members consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission, and such consent shall have the same force and effect as a vote of such directors or committee members, as the case may be, and may be stated as such in any certificate or document filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or in any certificate delivered to any person. Such writing or writings or electronic transmission or transmissions shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee, as the case may be. Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.
     3.15 Quorum; Majority Vote. At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the directors fixed in the manner provided in these bylaws shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If at any meeting of the Board of Directors there is less than a quorum present, a majority of those present or any director solely present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. Unless the act of a greater number is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, the act of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is in attendance in person or by means of remote communication shall be the act of the Board of Directors. At any time that the Certificate of Incorporation provides that directors elected by the holders of a class or series of stock shall have more or less than one vote per director on any matter, every reference in these bylaws to a majority or other proportion of directors shall refer to a majority or other proportion of the votes of such directors.
     3.16 Procedure. At meetings of the Board of Directors, business shall be transacted in such order as from time to time the Board of Directors may determine. The Chairman of the Board, if such position has been filled, shall preside at all meetings of the Board of Directors, and, if such position has not been filled or if the Chairman of the Board is absent or otherwise unable to act, the Chief Executive Officer shall preside at all meetings of the Board of Directors. In the absence or inability to act of such persons, a chairman shall be chosen by the Board of Directors from among the directors present. The Secretary of the Corporation shall act as the secretary of each meeting of the Board of Directors unless the Board of Directors appoints another person to act as secretary of the meeting. The Board of Directors shall keep regular minutes of its proceedings which shall be placed in the minute book of the Corporation. Such minutes of the Board of Directors shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.

9


 

     3.17 Presumption of Assent. A director of the Corporation who is present at the meeting of the Board of Directors at which action on any corporate matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action unless his dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless he shall file his written dissent to such action with the person acting as secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward any dissent by certified or registered mail to the Secretary of the Corporation immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a director who voted in favor of such action.
     3.18 Compensation. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation, including fees and reimbursement of expenses, paid to directors for attendance at regular or special meetings of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof; provided, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity or receiving compensation therefor.
     3.19 Interested Directors and Officers. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers are directors or officers or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his or their votes are counted for such purpose, if (i) the material facts as to his relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; or (ii) the material facts as to his relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors, a committee thereof or the stockholders. Common or interested directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.
