STOCKHOLDERS MEETINGS

Section 2.1 Annual Meetings. Annual meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place, date and hour as shall be fixed by the Board and designated by the Board and stated in the notice of the meeting or waiver of notice thereof, at which the stockholders shall elect the directors of the Company and transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting. However, no annual meeting need be held if all actions, including the election of directors, required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) to be taken at a stockholders’ annual meeting are taken by written consent in lieu of meeting pursuant to Section 2.7.7 of this Article II.

Section 2.2 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by law or by the Company’s certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate”), (i) may be called by the chairman of the Board or the president and (ii) shall be called by the president or secretary at the request in writing of a majority of the Board or stockholders owning capital stock of the Company representing a majority of the votes of all capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereat. Such request of the Board or the stockholders shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting.

Section 2.3 Notices. Written notice of each stockholders’ meeting stating the place, date and hour of the meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat by or at the direction of the officer calling such meeting not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. If said notice is for a stockholders meeting other than an annual meeting, it shall in addition state the purpose or purposes for which said meeting is called, and the business transacted at such meeting shall be limited to the matters so stated in said notice and any matters reasonably related thereto. 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, or who shall, in person or by his attorney thereunto authorized, waive such notice in writing, either before or after

such meeting. Except as otherwise provided in these Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”) or required by the DGCL, neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any such notice or waiver of notice. Notice of any adjourned meeting of stockholders shall not be required to be given, except when expressly required by law.

Section 2.4 Quorum. Except where otherwise provided by the Certificate or these Bylaws, the presence at a stockholders’ meeting of the holders, present in person or represented by proxy, of capital stock of the Company representing a majority of the votes of all capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereat shall constitute a quorum at such meeting for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate or these Bylaws. If a quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, a majority of the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, or, in the absence of all the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, any officer of the Company entitled to preside at, or act as secretary of, such meeting, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such reconvened meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the reconvened meeting, a notice of said meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at said meeting. The stockholders present at a duly convened meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

The secretary of the Company or, if he shall be presiding over such meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.5 or if he shall be absent from such meeting, the person (who shall be an assistant secretary of the Company, if an assistant secretary has been appointed and is present) whom the chairman of such meeting shall appoint, shall act as secretary of such meeting and keep the minutes thereof.

2

Section 2.6 Order of Business. The order of business at each meeting of the stockholders shall be determined by the chairman of such meeting, but such order of business may be changed by a majority in voting interest of those present in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote thereat.

Section 2.7.1. Voting Lists. The officer or agent who has charge of the stock ledger of the Company shall prepare, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote thereat arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any such 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 a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. 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 original stock transfer books shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine such list or transfer books or to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Failure to comply with the requirements of this section shall not affect the validity of any action taken at said meeting.

Section 2.7.2. Votes Per Share. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate or these Bylaws, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote in person or by proxy at every stockholders meeting for each share of Common Stock held by such stockholder.

Section 2.7.3. Control of Vote. Persons holding stock in a fiduciary capacity shall be entitled to vote the shares so held. A person whose stock is pledged shall be entitled to vote, unless, in the transfer by the pledgor on the books of the Company, he has expressly empowered the pledgee to vote thereon, in which case only the pledgee or his proxy may represent such stock and vote thereon. If shares or other securities having voting power stand in the record of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety or otherwise, or if two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the secretary shall be given written notice to the contrary and furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting shall have the following effect:

If the instrument so filed shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even-split for the purposes of this Section 2.7 shall be a majority or even-split in interest.

3

Section 2.7.4. Proxies. Every stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting or to express consent or dissent without a meeting or a stockholder’s duly authorized attorney-in-fact may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy. Each proxy shall be in writing, executed by the stockholder giving the proxy or by his duly authorized attorney. No proxy shall be voted on or after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. Unless and until voted, every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the person who executed it, or his legal representatives or assigns, except in those cases where an irrevocable proxy permitted by statute has been given.

Section 2.7.5. Required Vote. When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders, present in person or represented by proxy, of capital stock of the Company representing a majority of the votes of all capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereat shall decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which, by express provision of law or the Certificate or these Bylaws, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.

Section 2.7.6. Method of Vote. Unless demanded by a stockholder present in person or by proxy at any meeting and entitled to vote thereon, the vote on any question need not be by ballot. Upon a demand by any such stockholder for a vote by ballot upon any question, such vote by ballot shall be taken. On a vote by ballot, each ballot shall be signed by the stockholder voting, or by his proxy, if there be such proxy, and shall state the number of shares voted.

Section 2.7.7. Consents in Lieu of Meeting. Any action required by the DGCL to be or which may be taken at any meeting of stockholders may 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 outstanding stock 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, as permitted by the DGCL. Prompt, written notice of the action taken by means of any such consent which is other than unanimous shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.

ARTICLE VIII.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Section 8.1 Right to Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify any person who was or is involved in or is threatened to be involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Company, or, while a director or officer, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (such person, an “indemnitee”), to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment and unless applicable law otherwise requires, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and penalties and amounts paid in settlement), actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Section 8 of this Article VIII with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses, the Company shall indemnify an indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the indemnitee if and only if the Board authorized the bringing of the action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) in advance of the commencement of the proceeding. Nothing in this Article VIII shall limit the right of the Company, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than indemnitees

Section 8.2 Successful Defense. To the extent that an indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 1 of this Article VIII, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such indemnitee shall be indemnified against expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such indemnitee in connection therewith.

10

Section 8.3 Advance Payment of Expenses. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an indemnitee in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that the indemnitee shall be required to submit to the Company, prior to the payment of such expenses, an undertaking (an “undertaking”) by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined in a final, non-appealable judicial decision that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company for such expenses as authorized in this Article VIII.

Section 8.4 Indemnitor of First Resort. The Company acknowledges that certain indemnitees may have rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by a stockholder of the Company or its affiliates (other than any subsidiary of the Company) (directly or through insurance obtained by any such corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, firm, association, or other entity) (collectively, the “Stockholder Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges that (a) it is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to the indemnitees, (b) it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the indemnitees, as required by law, the terms of the Certificate, these Bylaws, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, without regard to any rights the indemnitees may have against the Stockholder Indemnitors and (c) to the extent permitted by law, it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Stockholder Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Stockholder Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Stockholder Indemnitors on behalf of the Company with respect to any claim for which the indemnitees have sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Stockholder Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the indemnitees against the Company. These rights shall be a contract right.

Section 8.5 Not Exclusive. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other sections of this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any statute, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company is authorized to enter into an agreement with any person providing rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses.

Section 8.6 Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of this Article VIII.

11

Section 8.7 Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to the “corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation absorbed in a consolidation or merger (including any constituent of a constituent) which, if its separate existence has continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent (including, without limitation, a trustee) of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article VIII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Company” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries, and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referred to in this Article VIII. Any reference to an officer of the Company in this Article VIII shall be deemed to refer exclusively to the President, Treasurer, and Secretary of the Company appointed pursuant to Section 1 of Article VI of these Bylaws, and to any Chairman of the Board, Vice Presidents, Assistant Treasurers, Assistant Secretaries, or other officer of the Company appointed by the Board pursuant to Article VI of these Bylaws, and any reference to an officer of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be deemed to refer exclusively to an officer appointed by the board of directors or equivalent governing body of such other entity pursuant to the certificate of incorporation and bylaws or equivalent organizational documents of such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise. The fact that any person who is or was an employee of the Company or an employee of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise has been given or has used the title of “Vice President” or any other title that could be construed to suggest or imply that such person is or may be an officer of the Company or of such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall not result in such person being constituted as, or being deemed to be, and such person shall not be, an officer of the Company or of such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise for purposes of this Article VIII.

Section 8.8 Proceedings to Enforce Rights to Indemnification Amendments.

(a) If a claim under Section 1 of this Article VIII is not paid in full by the Company within 60 days after a written claim has been received by the Company, or a claim under Section 3 of this Article VIII is not paid in full by the Company within 30 days after a written claim has been received by the Company, the indemnitee may at any time thereafter (but not before) bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. Any such written claim under Section 1 of this Article VIII shall include such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the indemnitee and reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. Any written claim under Sections 1, 2 and 3 of this Article VIII shall include reasonable documentation of the expenses incurred by the indemnitee.

12

(b) If successful in whole or in part in any suit brought pursuant to Section 8(a) of this Article VIII, or in a suit brought by the Company to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid and indemnified for the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit.

(c) In (i) any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that, and (ii) any suit brought by the Company to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking the Company shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Company (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Company (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the indemnitee, be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or by the Company to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article VIII or otherwise shall be on the Company.

(d) If the Company shall have made a determination that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 8 of this Article VIII. The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 8 of this Article VIII that the procedures and presumptions of this Article VIII are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in such proceeding that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Article VIII.

Section 8.9 Preservation of Rights. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Company, or has ceased to serve at the request of the Company as a director or officer (including, without limitation, a trustee) of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. Any repeal or modification of this Article VIII shall (unless otherwise required by applicable law) be prospective only, except to the extent such repeal or modification permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than this Article VIII permitted the Company to provide prior to such repeal or modification, and shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer of the Company, or any person serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer (including, without limitation, a trustee) of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, existing at the time of such repeal or modification.
