REGISTERED OFFICE The initial registered office of the Corporation shall be in Wilmington, Delaware, and the initial registered agent in charge thereof shall be Corporation Service Company. 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 may from time to time determine or as may be necessary or useful in connection with the business of the Corporation. 2. MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS 2.1. PLACE OF MEETINGS All meetings of the shareholders shall be held at such place as may be fixed from time to time by or upon the authority of the Board of Directors. 2.2 ANNUAL MEETINGS(1) The Corporation shall hold annual meetings of shareholders, commencing with the year 1999, on such date and at such time as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors, at which shareholders shall elect a Board of Directors and transact only such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder. - --------- (1) This Section 2.2 shall be effective until the 2006 annual meeting of shareholders. For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than 45 days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to shareholders, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. A shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (b) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of the shareholder proposing such business, (c) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the shareholder, and (d) any material interest of the shareholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.2. The chairman of an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the annual meeting that a matter of business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. 2.2. ANNUAL MEETINGS(2) The Corporation shall hold annual meetings of shareholders on such date and at such time as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors, at which shareholders shall elect a Board of Directors and transact only such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder. For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation, provided that such business is a proper matter for shareholder action under the General Corporation Law of Delaware. To be timely, a shareholder's notice shall be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal - ---------- (2) This Section 2.2 shall be effective immediately following the 2006 annual meeting of shareholders. - 2 - executive offices of the Corporation not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the prior year's meeting; provided, however, that in the event that (i) the date of the annual meeting is more than 60 days prior to or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, and (ii) less than 60 days notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to shareholders, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. A shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (b) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of the shareholder proposing such business, (c) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the shareholder, and (d) any material interest of the shareholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.2. The chairman of an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the annual meeting that a matter of business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. 2.3. SPECIAL MEETINGS Special meetings of the shareholders for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by statute may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President, or a majority of the Board of Directors. 2.4. NOTICE OF MEETINGS Notice of any meeting of shareholders, stating the place, date and hour of the meeting, and (if it is a special meeting) the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be given to each shareholder entitled to vote at such meeting not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting (except to the extent that such notice is waived or is not required as provided in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "Delaware General Corporation Law") 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 Delaware General Corporation Law. 2.5. WAIVERS OF NOTICE Whenever the giving of any notice is required by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a waiver thereof, in writing and - 3 - delivered to the Corporation, signed by the person or persons entitled to said notice, whether before or after the event as to which such notice is required, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a shareholder at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice (1) of such meeting, except when the shareholder at the beginning of the meeting objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting, and (2) (if it is a special meeting) of consideration of a particular matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in the meeting notice, unless the shareholder objects to considering the matter at the beginning of the meeting. 2.6. BUSINESS AT SPECIAL MEETINGS Business transacted at any special meeting of shareholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice (except to the extent that such notice is waived or is not required as provided in the Delaware General Corporation Law or these Bylaws). 2.7. LIST OF SHAREHOLDERS After the record date for a meeting of shareholders has been fixed, at least ten days before such meeting, the officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall make a list of all shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each shareholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each shareholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any shareholder for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, either at a place in the city where the meeting is to be held, which place is to be specified in the notice of the meeting, or at the place where the meeting is to be held. Such list shall also, for the duration of the meeting, be produced and kept open to the examination of any shareholder who is present at the time and place of the meeting. 2.8. QUORUM AT MEETINGS Shareholders may take action on a matter at a meeting only if a quorum exists with respect to that matter. Except as otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of one-third of the shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, and who are present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the shareholders for the transaction of business. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting (other than solely to object (1) to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting, or (2) (if it is a special meeting) to consideration of a particular matter at the meeting that is not within the purpose or purposes described in the meeting notice), it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and for any adjournment of that meeting unless a - 4 - new record date is or must be set for the adjourned meeting. The holders of a majority of the voting shares represented at a meeting, whether or not a quorum is present, may adjourn such meeting from time to time. 2.9. VOTING AND PROXIES Unless otherwise provided in the Delaware General Corporation Law or in the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation, and subject to the other provisions of these Bylaws, each shareholder shall be entitled to one vote on each matter, in person or by proxy, for each share of the Corporation's capital stock that has voting power and that is held by such shareholder. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed appointment of proxy shall be irrevocable if the appointment form 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. 2.10. REQUIRED VOTE If a quorum exists, action on a matter (other than the election of directors) is approved if the votes cast favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law requires a greater number of affirmative votes (in which case such different requirement shall apply). Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election (provided a quorum exists), and the election of directors need not be by written ballot. 2.11. ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING Any action required or permitted to be taken at a shareholders' meeting may be taken without a meeting if the action is taken by persons who would be entitled to vote at a meeting and who hold shares having voting power to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting at which all shareholders entitled to vote were present and voted. The action must be evidenced by one or more written consents describing the action taken, signed by the shareholders entitled to take action without a meeting, and delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minute book. No consent shall be effective to take the corporate action specified unless the number of consents required to take such action are delivered to the Corporation within sixty days of the delivery of the earliest-dated consent. All shareholders entitled to vote on the record date of such written consent who do not participate in taking the action shall be given written notice thereof in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law. - 5 - 3.

POWERS The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors, which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things, subject to any limitation set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or agreements among shareholders which are otherwise lawful. 3.2.

The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Bylaws, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. 3.3. NOMINATION OF DIRECTORS(4) (a) The Board of Directors shall nominate candidates to stand for election as directors; and other candidates also may be nominated by any Corporation shareholder as provided in Section 3.3(b) below.

The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Bylaws, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. 3.4. VACANCIES Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by the shareholders or by a majority of the directors then in office, although fewer than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Each director so chosen shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and until such director's successor is elected and qualified, or until the director's earlier resignation or removal. In the event that one or more directors resigns from the Board, effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to - 8 - fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective, and each director so chosen shall hold office until the next election of directors, and until such director's successor is elected and qualified, or until the director's earlier resignation or removal. 3.5. MEETINGS 3.5.1. REGULAR MEETINGS Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such time and at such place as shall from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors. 3.5.2. SPECIAL MEETINGS Special meetings of the Board may be called by a majority of the Board of Directors on one day's notice to each director, either personally or by telephone, express delivery service (so that the scheduled delivery date of the notice is at least one day in advance of the meeting), telegram or facsimile transmission, and on five days' notice by mail (effective upon deposit of such notice in the mail). The notice need not describe the purpose of a special meeting. 3.5.3. TELEPHONE MEETINGS Members of the Board of Directors may participate in a meeting of the Board by any communication by means of which all participating directors can simultaneously hear each other during the meeting. A director participating in a meeting by this means is deemed to be present in person at the meeting. 3.5.4. ACTION WITHOUT MEETING Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting if the action is taken by all members of the Board. The action must be evidenced by one or more written consents describing the action taken, signed by each director, and delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minute book. 3.5.5. WAIVER OF NOTICE OF MEETING A director may waive any notice required by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws before or after the date and time stated in the notice. Except as set forth below, the waiver must be in writing, signed by the director entitled to the notice, and delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minute book. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a director's attendance at or participation in a meeting waives any required notice to the director of the meeting unless the director at the beginning of the meeting objects to holding the meeting or - 9 - transacting business at the meeting and does not thereafter vote for or assent to action taken at the meeting. 3.6. QUORUM AND VOTE AT MEETINGS At all meetings of the Board, a quorum of the Board of Directors consists of a majority of the total number of directors prescribed pursuant to Section 3.2 of these Bylaws (or, if no number is prescribed, the number in office immediately before the meeting begins). The vote of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these Bylaws. 3.7. COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS The Board of Directors may by resolution create one or more committees and appoint members of the Board of Directors to serve on the committees at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. To the extent specified in a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors, each committee may exercise the full authority of the Board of Directors, except as limited by Section 141 (or any successor section) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. All provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law and these Bylaws relating to meetings, action without meetings, notice (and waiver thereof), and quorum and voting requirements of the Board of Directors apply, as well, to such committees and their members. 3.8. COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS The Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. 4. OFFICERS 4.1. POSITIONS The officers of the Corporation shall be a Chairman, a Chief Executive Officer, a President, a Secretary and a Treasurer, and such other officers as the Board of Directors (or an officer authorized by the Board of Directors) from time to time may appoint, including one or more Vice Chairmen, Executive Vice Presidents, Vice Presidents, Assistant Secretaries and Assistant Treasurers. Each such officer shall exercise such powers and perform such duties as shall be set forth below and such other powers and duties as from time to time may be specified by the Board of Directors or by any officer(s) authorized by the Board of Directors to prescribe the duties of such other officers. Any number of offices may be held by the same person, - 10 - except that in no event shall the President and the Secretary be the same person.

COMPENSATION The compensation of officers of the Corporation shall be fixed by the Board of Directors or by any officer(s) authorized by the Board of Directors to prescribe the compensation of such other officers. - 12 - 4.12. FIDELITY BONDS The Corporation may secure the fidelity of any or all of its officers or agents by bond or otherwise. 5. CAPITAL STOCK 5.1. CERTIFICATES OF STOCK; UNCERTIFICATED SHARES The shares of the Corporation shall be represented by certificates, provided that the Board of Directors may provide by resolution that some or all of any or all classes or series of the Corporation's stock shall be uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the Corporation. Notwithstanding the adoption of such a resolution by the Board of Directors, every holder of stock represented by certificates, and upon request every holder of uncertificated shares, shall be entitled to have a certificate (representing the number of shares registered in certificate form) signed in the name of the Corporation by the Chairman, President or any Vice President, and by the Treasurer, Secretary or any Assistant Treasurer or Assistant Secretary of the Corporation. Any or all the signatures on the certificate may be facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar whose signature or facsimile signature appears on a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. 5.2. LOST CERTIFICATES The Board of Directors, Chairman, President or Secretary may direct a new certificate of stock to be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Corporation and alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming that the certificate of stock has been lost, stolen or destroyed. When authorizing such issuance of a new certificate, the Board or any such officer may, as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or such owner's legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as the Board or such officer shall require and/or to give the Corporation a bond, in such sum as the Board or such officer may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed or on account of the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares. - 13 - 5.3.
