SECTION 2. Other Offices. The Corporation may also have an office or offices at such other places both within and without the State of Delaware as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine.

SECTION 3. Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be fixed, and shall be subject to change, by the Board of Directors. Unless otherwise fixed by the Board of Directors, the fiscal year of the Corporation shall be the calendar year.

ARTICLE II

Meetings of Stockholders

SECTION 1. Place of Meetings. Meetings of the stockholders for the election of directors of the Corporation (each, a “Director”) or for any other purpose shall be held at such time and place, either within or without the State of Delaware, 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 thereof.

SECTION 2. Annual Meeting. An annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation (the “Annual Meeting of Stockholders”) for the election of Directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting shall be held 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.

SECTION 3. Special Meetings. Unless otherwise prescribed by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation ”), special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation (each, a “ Special Meeting of Stockholders ”), for any purpose or purposes, may be called by either the Chairman of the Board, if one has been elected, or the Chief Executive Officer, and shall be called by either such officer or the Secretary at the request in writing of a majority of the Board of Directors, but such special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons. Such request shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting. Only such business shall be conducted at a Special Meeting as shall have been properly brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting.

SECTION 4. Notice of Meetings; Adjournments.

(a) Except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, written notice of all meetings of the stockholders, stating the place (if any), date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the place within the city or other municipality or community at which the list of stockholders may be examined and the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (if such date is different from the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting) and, in case of a Special Meeting of Stockholders, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be mailed or delivered to each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the meeting (except to the extent that such notice is waived or is not required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “ DGCL ”) or these Bylaws). Such notice shall be given in accordance with, and shall be deemed effective as set forth in, Section 222 (or any successor section) of the DGCL. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to such stockholders, any notice to stockholders may be given by electronic transmission in the manner provided in Section 232 of the DGCL. A written waiver of any notice, signed by a stockholder, or waiver by electronic transmission by such person, whether given before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to the notice required to be given to such person. Neither the business nor the purpose of any meeting need be specified in such a waiver. Attendance at any meeting shall constitute waiver of notice except when the person attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

(b) Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with Section 213(a) of the DGCL, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date for notice of such adjourned meeting.

SECTION 5. Stockholder Lists. The officer of the Corporation who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, 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 necessary to the meeting, either (i) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation, or (ii) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of 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.

The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list required by this section or the books of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

SECTION 6. Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of stockholders shall consist of the holders of record of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or by proxy; provided, however, that, in no event shall a quorum consist of less than such number of votes as may be required under the DGCL. At all meetings of the stockholders at which a quorum is present, all matters, except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, shall be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote thereat present in person or by proxy. If there is no such quorum, the holders of a majority of such shares so present or represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time, subject to Section 4(b) of this Article II, until a quorum shall have been obtained. When a quorum is once present it is not broken by the subsequent withdrawal of any stockholder.

-2-

SECTION 7. Organization. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board, if any, or if none or in the Chairman of the Board’s absence, the Vice Chairman of the Board, or if none or in the Vice Chairman of the Board’s absence, the Chief Executive Officer, or, if none of the foregoing is present, by a chairman designated by the Board of Directors, or in the absence of such designation, by a chairman chosen at the meeting. The Secretary of the Corporation, or in the Secretary’s absence an Assistant Secretary, shall act as secretary of every meeting, but if neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary is present, the officer of the Corporation presiding at the meeting shall appoint any person present to act as secretary of the meeting.

SECTION 8. Nature of Business at Annual Meetings of Stockholders. No business may be transacted at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders, other than business that is either (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof), (b) otherwise properly brought before the Annual Meeting of Stockholders by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof), or (c) otherwise properly brought before the Annual Meeting of Stockholders by any stockholder of the Corporation who (i) has continuously held at least $2,000 in market value, or 1%, of the Corporation’s shares of common stock entitled to vote at the meeting on the proposal for business for at least one year from the date such stockholder gives the notice provided for in Section 9 of this Article II, and continuously holds such shares through and including the time of the Annual Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement thereof), (ii) is a stockholder of record at the time of giving the notice provided for in Section 9 of this Article II through and including the time of the Annual Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement thereof), (iii) is entitled to propose such business and to vote at the meeting on the proposal for such business and (iv) complies with the notice procedures set forth in Section 9 of this Article II as to such business and, to the extent applicable, Section 10 and Section 11 of this Article II. Section 8(c) and Section 9 of this Article II and, to the extent applicable, Sections 10 and 11 of this Article II, shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose business before an Annual Meeting of Stockholders, except (x) to the extent of matters which are required to be presented to stockholders by applicable law which have been properly presented in accordance with the requirements of such law and (y) nominations of individuals for election to the Board of Directors shall be made in accordance with Section 3(b) and Section 4 of Article III (and, to the extent applicable, Section 10 and Section 11 of this Article II). For purposes of determining compliance with the requirement in subclause (i) of this Section 8(c), the market value of the Corporation’s shares of common stock held by the applicable stockholder shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares such stockholder continuously held for that one-year period by the highest selling price of the Corporation’s shares of common stock as reported on the principal exchange on which shares of the Corporation’s common stock are listed during the 60 calendar days before the date such notice was submitted.

SECTION 9. Advance Notice of Stockholder Proposals. In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be properly brought before an Annual Meeting of Stockholders by a stockholder, such stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of the Corporation and have complied with all applicable provisions of these Bylaws, including, but not limited to, Section 8, Section 10 and Section 11 of this Article II. With respect to nominations for election of Directors by a stockholder (any such nominated individual, a “Proposed Nominee”), only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 3 and 4 of Article III and, to the extent applicable, Section 10 and Section 11 of this Article II, and who meet the qualifications set forth in Section 2 of Article III, shall be eligible to be elected at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders or Special Meeting of Stockholders of the Corporation to serve as Directors.

Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, subject to applicable law, any stockholder proposal for business the subject matter or effect of which would be within the exclusive purview of the Board of Directors, shall be deemed not to be a matter upon which the stockholders are entitled to vote. The Board of Directors in its discretion shall be entitled to determine whether a stockholder proposal for business is not a matter upon which the stockholders are entitled to vote pursuant to this Section 9, and its decision shall be final and binding unless determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been made in bad faith.

-3-

To be timely, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation no later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day, nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day, prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding Annual Meeting of Stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the Annual Meeting of Stockholders is called for a date that is not within thirty (30) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which Public Disclosure (as defined in Article XIII) of the date of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders was made. In no event shall the Public Disclosure of an adjournment or postponement of an Annual Meeting of Stockholders commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth: (a) as to each matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the Annual Meeting of Stockholders, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the Annual Meeting of Stockholders, 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, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and any Stockholder Associated Person (as defined in Article XIII of these Bylaws); (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice and any Stockholder Associated Person (i) the name and record address of such stockholder, and the name and address of the Stockholder Associated Person, (ii) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and/or of record by such stockholder and any Stockholder Associated Person as of the date of the notice, and a representation that the stockholder will notify the Corporation in writing within five (5) business days after the record date for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation owned beneficially and/or of record by the stockholder and such Stockholder Associated Person as of the record date for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders, (iii) 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 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to bring such business before the meeting; (iv) any option, warrant, convertible security, stock appreciation right, or similar right with an exercise or conversion privilege or a settlement payment or mechanism at a price related to any class or series of shares of the Corporation or with a value derived in whole or in part from the value of any class or series of shares of the Corporation, whether or not such instrument or right shall be subject to settlement in the underlying class or series of capital stock of the Corporation or otherwise (a “Derivative Instrument”) directly or indirectly owned beneficially by each such party, 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, (v) any short interest in any security of the Corporation held by each such party (for purposes of this clause (v), a person shall be deemed to have a short interest in a security if such person directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, has the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any decrease in the value of the subject security), (vi) any rights to dividends on the shares of the Corporation owned beneficially directly or indirectly by each such party that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of the Corporation, (vii) any proportionate interest in shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments held, directly or indirectly, by a general or limited partnership in which any such party is a general partner or, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns an interest in a general partner, (viii) any performance-related fees (other than an asset-based fee) that each such party is directly or indirectly entitled to based on any increase or decrease in the value of shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments, if any, as of the date of such notice, including without limitation any such interests held by members of each such party’s immediate family sharing the same household (which information set forth in clauses (b)(ii) and (b)(iv)-(viii) of this paragraph shall be supplemented by such stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person, as the case may be, not later than five (5) days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting), (ix) a representation as to whether the stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person, if any, intends or is part of a group that intends to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the business, and/or otherwise to solicit proxies or votes from stockholders in support of such business and (x) any other information relating to such stockholder and Stockholder Associated Person, if any, required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for the approval or adoption of the business pursuant to and in accordance with Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

-4-

The stockholder shall be deemed to have affirmatively asserted that no person is a Stockholder Associated Person other than the Stockholder Associated Person expressly identified by the stockholder in its notice. Furthermore, if any other item required pursuant to the foregoing requirements is not expressly addressed in such stockholder’s notice with respect to the stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person identified in such notice, the stockholder shall be deemed to have affirmatively asserted that the answer to such item is “none” or “not applicable”, as the case may be, unless such item cannot be reasonably answered with a response of either “none” or “not applicable”, in which case such notice shall be deemed incomplete with respect to such response. Not in limitation of the foregoing, any answer of “none” or “not applicable” to clauses (a), (b)(i) or (b)(ix) above shall be deemed incomplete with respect to such response. To the extent that the stockholder’s notice is inaccurate in any material respect (including any such deemed affirmative assertions) and/or incomplete in any material respect with respect to requirements that cannot be reasonably answered with an answer of either “none” or “not applicable”, as determined by the Board of Directors, the stockholder shall be deemed not to have complied with the requirements of this Section 9. Such stockholder shall provide further notice or notices to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation to update the foregoing information if such information changes between the date of such stockholder’s notice and the date of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders, such notice to be provided within three business days after such information changes but no later than the day prior to such meeting. To the extent the stockholder fails to so update such information on a timely basis in any material respect, as determined by the Board of Directors, the stockholder shall be deemed not to have complied with the requirements of this Section 9.

The foregoing notice requirements shall apply to all proposals made by stockholders other (i) than those proposals made in compliance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act that have been included in a proxy statement prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for such Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and (ii) nominations for the election of Directors, which shall be governed by the procedures set forth in Section 3(b) and Section 4 of Article III and, to the extent applicable, Section 10 and Section 11 of this Article II. A stockholder seeking to include a proposal in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 must comply with Rule 14a-8 and any other applicable Exchange Act requirements.

No business shall be conducted by a stockholder at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders except business brought before the Annual Meeting of Stockholders by a stockholder meeting the requirements set forth in Section 8 of this Article II and in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 9 and, if applicable, Section 10 and Section 11 of this Article II or, in the case of nominations for the election of Directors, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3(b) and Section 4 of Article III and, if applicable, Section 10 and Section 11 of this Article II. If the Chairman of the Board determines that business was not properly brought before the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the Chairman of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders shall declare to the meeting that the business was not properly brought before the meeting and such business shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9, unless otherwise required by law, if the stockholder does not provide the information required under clauses (b)(ii) and (b)(iv)-(viii) of this Section 9 to the Corporation within five (5) business days following the record date for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders or if the stockholder does not appear in person or through a legally qualified representative at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to present proposed business, such business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that stockholders may have already submitted proxies to the Corporation in respect of such business in accordance with Section 8 of this Article II.

SECTION 10. Stockholder Nominations or Other Proposals Causing Covenant Breaches or Defaults. At the same time as the submission of any stockholder nomination or proposal of other business to be considered at a stockholders meeting that, if approved and implemented by the Corporation, would cause the Corporation or any Subsidiary (as defined in Article XIII) of the Corporation to be in breach of any covenant of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation or otherwise cause a default (in any case, with or without notice or lapse of time) in any existing debt instrument or agreement of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation or other material contract or agreement of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation, in each case as disclosed by the Corporation in its public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or as otherwise disclosed to the proponent stockholder or stockholders, such proponent stockholder or stockholders shall submit to the Secretary of the Corporation (or, in the case of a stockholder nomination, to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee) at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (a) evidence that the lender or contracting party has waived or is willing to waive the breach of covenant or default or (b) a detailed plan for repayment of the indebtedness to the lender or curing the contractual breach or default and satisfying any resulting damage claim, specifically identifying the actions to be taken or the source of funds.

-5-

SECTION 11. Stockholder Nominations or Other Proposals Requiring Governmental Action. If (a) submission of any stockholder nomination or proposal of other business to be considered at a stockholders meeting that could not be considered or, if approved, implemented by the Corporation without the Corporation, any Subsidiary of the Corporation, the proponent stockholder, any Proposed Nominee of such stockholder, any Proposed Nominee Associated Person (as defined in Article XIII) of such Proposed Nominee, any Stockholder Associated Person of such stockholder, the holder of proxies or their respective affiliates or associates filing with or otherwise notifying or obtaining the consent, approval or other action (a “Governmental Action”) of any federal or state governmental or regulatory body, including any stock exchange on which shares of the Corporation’s stock are listed (a “Governmental Body”), which, if not so filed, notified or obtained would have a material adverse effect on the Corporation, or (b) the stockholder’s ownership of shares of stock of the Corporation or any solicitation of proxies or votes or holding or exercising proxies by any stockholder proposing business or making a nomination, any Proposed Nominee of such stockholder, any Proposed Nominee Associated Person of such Proposed Nominee, any Stockholder Associated Person of such stockholder, or their respective affiliates or associates would require Governmental Action, then, at the same time as the submission of any stockholder nomination or proposal of other business to be considered at a stockholders meeting, the proponent stockholder or stockholders shall submit to the Secretary of the Corporation (or, in the case of a stockholder nomination, to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee) at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (x) evidence that any and all Governmental Action has been given or obtained, including, without limitation, evidence that any Proposed Nominee satisfies any suitability or other requirements of the applicable Governmental Body, or (y) if such evidence was not obtainable from a Governmental Body by such time despite the stockholder’s diligent and best efforts, a detailed plan for making or obtaining the Governmental Action prior to the election of any such Proposed Nominee or the implementation of such proposal.

SECTION 12. Voting; Proxies; Required Vote.

(a) At each meeting of stockholders, every stockholder shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy appointed by instrument in writing, subscribed by such stockholder or by such stockholder’s duly authorized attorney-in-fact (but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period, and a 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), and, unless the Certificate of Incorporation provides otherwise, shall have one (1) vote for each share of stock entitled to vote registered in the name of such stockholder on the books of the Corporation on the applicable record date fixed pursuant to these Bylaws. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the Secretary of the Corporation a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date. At every meeting of stockholders duly called and held at which a quorum is present (i) in all matters other than the election of Directors, a majority of the votes that could be cast at the meeting upon a given question and (ii) in the case of the election of Directors, a plurality of the votes that could be cast at the meeting upon the election, by the holders who are present in person or by proxy, shall be necessary, in addition to any vote or other action that may be expressly required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, to decide the question or election. Except as otherwise provided by statute, and unless demanded by a stockholder present in person or by proxy at any meeting, and entitled to vote thereat, the vote on any question need not be by ballot.

(b) Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of stockholders may, except as otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of record of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation having a majority 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 the writing or writings are filed with the permanent records of the Corporation. Prompt notice of the taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.

-6-

SECTION 13. Inspectors.

(a) The Board of Directors, in advance of any meeting, may, but need not, appoint one or more inspectors of election to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof. If an inspector or inspectors are not so appointed, the person presiding at the meeting may, but need not, appoint one or more inspectors. In case any person who may be appointed as an inspector fails to appear or act, the vacancy may be filled by appointment made by the Directors in advance of the meeting or at the meeting by the person presiding thereat. Each inspector, if any, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors, if any, shall determine the number of shares of stock outstanding and the voting power of each, the shares of stock 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 result, and do such acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders.

(a) The Board of Directors shall consist of not less than three (3) nor more than seven (7) members, the exact number of Directors to be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors. The use of the phrase “entire Board” herein refers to the total number of Directors which the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies in previously authorized directorships.

In the event such a determination is made, such individual shall cease to be qualified to serve on the Board of Directors.

However, if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by a claimant in his or her capacity as a Director shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such claimant, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such claimant is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.

SECTION 4. Right of Claimant to Bring Suit. If a claim for indemnification or payment of expenses is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be thirty (30) days, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the claimant shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit.

SECTION 8. Settlement of Claims.

If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, 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. 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.

Any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent shall request the Board of Directors to fix a record date, which request shall be in proper form and delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation. To be in proper form, such request must be in writing and shall state the purpose or purposes of the action or actions proposed to be taken by written consent. The Board of Directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten (10) days after the date on which such a request is received, adopt a resolution fixing the record date. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors within ten (10) days of the date on which such a request is received, 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 applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in Delaware, its principal place of business or to any 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 applicable law, 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 date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated written consent received in accordance with this Section, a written consent or consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take such action are delivered to the Corporation in the manner prescribed in this Section. Notwithstanding anything in these bylaws to the contrary, no action may be taken by the stockholders by written consent except in accordance with this Section 3. If the board of directors shall determine that any request to fix a record date or to take stockholder action by written consent was not properly made in accordance with this Section 3, or the stockholder or stockholders seeking to take such action do not otherwise comply with this Section 3, then the board of directors shall not be required to fix a record date and any such purported action by written consent shall be null and void to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. In addition to the requirements of this Section 3 with respect to stockholders seeking to take an action by written consent, each such stockholder shall comply with all requirements of applicable law, including all requirements of the Exchange Act, with respect 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.
