(30) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the Annual Meeting was
mailed or public disclosure of the date of the meeting was first made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an Annual Meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time
period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

the record date for such meeting that sets forth all of the information required by this Section 2 as of the record date for the Annual Meeting.
(f) Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 2 to the contrary, if any information or communication submitted pursuant to this Section 2 is inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect (as determined by the Board of Directors (or any authorized committee thereof)), such information shall be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Section 2. The obligation to update and supplement as set forth in this Section 2 and Article III, Section 2 and Section
15 shall not limit the Corporation’s rights with respect to any deficiencies in any notice provided by a stockholder, extend any applicable deadlines hereunder or under any other provision of these By-laws or enable or be deemed to
permit a stockholder who has previously submitted notice hereunder or under any other provision of these By-laws to amend or update any proposal or nomination or to submit any new proposal or nomination, including by changing or adding nominees,
matters, business and or resolutions proposed to be brought before the Annual Meeting. For purposes of this Section 2 and Article III, Section 2 and Section 15: (i) to be considered a qualified representative of a stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or authorized by a writing executed by such
stockholder (or a reliable reproduction of the writing) delivered to the Corporation prior to the making of such nomination or proposal at such Annual Meeting (and in any event not fewer than five (5) business days before the Annual Meeting)
stating that such person is authorized to act for such stockholder as proxy at the Annual Meeting, (ii) the “close of business” shall mean 5:00 p.m. local time at the principal executive offices of the Corporation on any calendar day, whether or
not the day is a business day, and (iii) a “public disclosure” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by GlobeNewswire, the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or a 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 Exchange Act.
(g) Notwithstanding
anything in the By-laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at the Annual Meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2 and a
stockholder (and any beneficial owner on whose behalf business is proposed and, if such stockholder or beneficial owner is an entity, any related person) shall comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in these By-laws; provided, however, that any references in these By-laws to the Exchange Act or
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit any requirements applicable to business to be considered pursuant to this Section 2
and nothing in this Section 2 shall be deemed to preclude discussion by any stockholder of any business properly brought before the Annual Meeting. The Chairman of an
Annual Meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the Annual Meeting that business was not properly brought before the Annual Meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the Annual Meeting and any such business not properly brought before the Annual Meeting shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies and votes
in respect of any such business may have been received by the Corporation. In furtherance and not by way of limitation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, (i)
if the stockholder does not provide the information required under this Section 2 to the Corporation within the time frames specified herein or (ii) if the stockholder (or
a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the Annual Meeting to present such business, such business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies and votes in respect of any such business may have been received by
the Corporation.
(h) Unless
otherwise required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (as amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”) or these By-laws, notice of the Annual Meeting stating the place, if any,
date and hour of the Annual 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 meeting, shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty
(60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting.
SECTION 3. Special Meetings. Unless otherwise prescribed by applicable law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, Special Meetings of Stockholders, for any purpose or purposes,
may be called by the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board. Subject to subsections (a) - (h) of this Section 3, a Special Meeting of Stockholders shall be called by the Secretary upon the written request of the record holders of at least 15% (or such other percentage as may be prescribed by the Certificate of Incorporation from
time to time) of the outstanding common stock of the Corporation (the “Requisite Percent”). Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-laws, notice of a Special Meeting stating the place, if any,
date and hour of the 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 meeting, and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called shall
be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting.
(a) In
order for a Stockholder Requested Special Meeting (as defined in this By-law) to be called, one or more requests for a Special Meeting must be signed by the Requisite Percent of record holders (or their duly authorized agents) and delivered to
the Secretary (each, a “Special Meeting Request,” collectively, the “Special Meeting Requests”). The Special Meeting Request(s) shall be sent to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation by registered mail, return
receipt requested. If a record holder is the nominee for more than one beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the Corporation, the record holder may deliver a Special Meeting Request pursuant to this Section 3 solely with respect to the shares owned by the beneficial owner who is directing the record holder to sign such Special Meeting Request.
(b) Any
stockholder (an “Initiating Stockholder”) seeking to engage in a solicitation of ten (10) or more persons (as the term “solicitation” is defined under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act or any successor regulation) to attain the Requisite Percent
(a “Public Solicitation”) may engage in such a solicitation only if the Initiating Stockholder shall first deliver to the Secretary a request that the Board of Directors fix a record date to determine the stockholders entitled to deliver Special
Meeting Requests in connection with such Public Solicitation (the “Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date”). The request shall be sent to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation by registered mail, return receipt
requested. The request for a Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date shall contain the information set forth or identified in subsection (c) of this Section 3. Following delivery of a request for a Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date, the Board of Directors shall, by the later of (x) ten (10) days after delivery of
such request and (y) five (5) days after delivery of all information required by the Corporation to determine the validity of such request or to determine whether the request relates to a matter that may be acted on at a Stockholder Requested
Special Meeting, determine the validity of such request and, if appropriate, adopt a resolution fixing the Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date. The Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date shall be no more than ten (10) days after the
date upon which the resolution fixing the Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date is adopted by the Board of Directors and shall not precede the date such resolution is adopted. If a valid request for a Requisite Percent Solicitation Record
Date has been duly delivered to the Secretary but no Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date has been fixed by the Board of Directors by the date required by the fourth sentence of this subsection (b), the Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date shall be the close of business on the tenth (10th) day after delivery of the valid request for the Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date to the Secretary. To
be valid, any Special Meeting Request that has been the subject of a Public Solicitation must be delivered to the Secretary no earlier than the applicable Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date and no later than the sixtieth (60th) day after
the applicable Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date.
(c) The
request for a Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date required by subsection (b) of this Section 3 in
connection with a Public Solicitation shall (i) be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation by the Initiating Stockholder, who must be a record holder of the Corporation’s common stock at the time the request is delivered, (ii) contain a
representation that such Initiating Stockholder plans to engage in a Public Solicitation to attain the Requisite Percent, (iii) set forth a statement of the specific purpose(s) of the Special Meeting, the matters proposed to be acted on at the
Special Meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the Special Meeting, (iv) bear the date of signature of such Initiating Stockholder, (v) set forth (A) the name and address, as they appear in the Corporation’s stock ledger, of such
Initiating Stockholder, and (B) the class and series, if applicable, and number of shares of stock of the Corporation that are owned of record and beneficially by such Initiating Stockholder, (vi) set forth any material interest of such
Initiating Stockholder in the business desired to be brought before the Special Meeting, (vii) set forth all information relating to such Initiating Stockholder that must be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an
election contest (even if an election contest is not involved), or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act or any successor regulation and (viii) contain (A) the information, if applicable, which must
be set forth in a stockholder’s notice as required by Article III, Section 2 of these By-laws, and the agreements described in subsection (d)(vii) of Article III, Section 15, in the case
of business involving the election of directors, and (B) the information, if applicable, which must be set forth in a stockholder’s notice as required by Article II, Section 2 of
these By-laws, in the case of business other than the election of directors, and in the case of clauses (A) and (B), such information shall be provided with respect to the Initiating Stockholder and each person that is part of a “group” (within
the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) with the Initiating Stockholder. The Corporation may require any Initiating Stockholder (and any other person that is part of a group with the Initiating
Stockholder) to furnish such other information as may be requested by the Corporation to determine the validity of any request for a Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date, the validity of any subsequently delivered Special Meeting Request,
or whether any such request relates to a matter that may be acted on at a Stockholder Requested Special Meeting.
(d) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth above, if one or more persons attain the Requisite Percent without engaging in a Public Solicitation, (x) the related Special Meeting Request must be signed by record holders (or their duly authorized agents)
that hold shares representing the Requisite Percent as of the date the last Special Meeting Request is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, (y) the information required under clauses (iii) through (viii) of the preceding subsection (c) of this Section 3 shall be provided with respect to each stockholder submitting the
Special Meeting Request (or the beneficial owner who is directing the stockholder of record to submit such Special Meeting Request) at the time such Special Meeting Request is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 3, and (z) the Corporation may require any such stockholder delivering
a Special Meeting Request without engaging in a Public Solicitation to furnish such other information as may be requested by the Corporation to determine the validity of any Special Meeting Request, or whether such Special Meeting Request relates
to a matter that may be acted on at a Stockholder Requested Special Meeting.
(e) A
stockholder may revoke his, her or its Special Meeting Request or request for a Requisite Percent Solicitation Record Date at any time by written revocation delivered to the Secretary.
(f) The
Secretary shall not be required to call a Special Meeting upon stockholder request (a “Stockholder Requested Special Meeting”) if (i) the action that is the subject of the Special Meeting Request(s) relates to an item of business that is not a
proper subject for stockholder action under applicable law, (ii) the Board of Directors has called or calls for an annual or special meeting of stockholders to be held not later than ninety (90) days after the Secretary’s receipt of the Special
Meeting Request(s) and the purpose(s) of such meeting include the purpose(s) specified in the Special Meeting Request(s) or (iii) an annual or special meeting of stockholders was held not less than ninety (90) days prior to the Secretary’s
receipt of the Special Meeting Request(s) and the purpose(s) of such meeting included the purpose(s) specified in the Special Meeting Request(s) with such determination, in the case of each of clause (ii) and (iii), being made in good faith by
the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall have the exclusive power to interpret the provisions of this Section 3 and make all determinations deemed necessary
or advisable for the administration thereof, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(g) A
Stockholder Requested Special Meeting shall be held at such date, time and place, if any, within or without the State of Delaware as may be fixed by the Board of Directors; provided,
however, that the date of any Stockholder Requested Special Meeting shall be not more than ninety (90) days after the Secretary’s receipt of the properly submitted Special Meeting Request(s).
(h) Business
transacted at any Stockholder Requested Special Meeting shall be limited to the purpose(s) stated in the Special Meeting Request(s); provided, however, that nothing herein
shall prohibit the Board of Directors from submitting matters to the stockholders at any Stockholder Requested Special Meeting; provided, further, that such purpose(s) of,
and business to be transacted at, such Stockholder Requested Special Meeting may include the removal and replacement of directors (with or without cause), the filling of any newly created directorship resulting from an increase in the number of
directors or any other vacancy on the Board of Directors or any other business that could also properly be brought for stockholder action before any Annual Meeting in each case of this second proviso, to the extent permitted by the Certificate of
Incorporation and applicable law.
SECTION 4. Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority of the capital stock issued and outstanding
and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting
of the stockholders, the Chairman of such meeting or a majority of the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than
announcement at the meeting or in any other manner permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such adjourned 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 noticed. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (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 entitled to vote at the meeting.
SECTION 5. Voting. Unless a different or minimum vote is required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these By-laws, the rules or regulations of any stock
exchange applicable to the Corporation or any law or regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, in which case such different or minimum vote shall be the applicable vote on the matter, any question brought before any meeting of
stockholders (other than the election of directors) shall be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter.
Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder represented at a meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to cast one vote for each share of the capital stock entitled to vote thereat held by such stockholder.
Such votes may be cast in person or by proxy but no proxy shall be voted on or after three years from its date, unless such proxy provides for a longer period. No vote at any meeting of stockholders need be by written ballot unless the Board of
Directors, in its discretion, or the officer of the Corporation presiding at the meeting, in his discretion, specifically directs the use of a written ballot.
SECTION 6. List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Corporation shall prepare, no later than the tenth (10th) day 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 germane to the meeting, for a period of ten (10) days ending on the day before the meeting date (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is
provided with the notice of meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the Corporation.
SECTION 7. Stock Ledger. The stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list required by
Section 6 of this Article II or the books of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at
any meeting of stockholders.
SECTION 8. Voting Procedures and Inspectors of Election.
(a) The
Corporation shall, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. The Corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any
inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the
discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.
(b) The
inspectors shall (i) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, (ii) determine the shares represented at a meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and ballots, (iv) determine and retain
for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (v) certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting, and their count of all votes and ballots.
The inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist the inspectors in the performance of the duties of the inspectors.
(c) The
date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced at the meeting.
SECTION 9. Action by Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of
the stockholders or may be effected by a consent or consents by the stockholders as provided by, and subject to the limitations in, the Certificate of Incorporation. In the event of the delivery, in the manner provided in the Certificate of
Incorporation and applicable law, to the Corporation of a consent or consents to take corporate action without a meeting and/or any related revocation or revocations, the Corporation may, and, if required by the Certificate of Incorporation,
shall, designate an inspector or inspectors to discharge such duties as are contemplated or required by the Certificate of Incorporation.
ARTICLE III
DIRECTORS
SECTION 1. Number and Election of Directors. Subject to the rights, if any, of holders of preferred stock issued by the Corporation to elect directors of the Corporation, the
Board of Directors shall consist of one or more directors, the number of which shall be determined by resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors from time to time or by resolution duly adopted by the stockholders, except that in no case
will a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. Except as provided in Section 3 of this Article III and subject to Section 12 of this Article III,
directors shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast at Annual Meetings of Stockholders and each director so elected shall hold office until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, disqualification,
resignation or removal; provided, however, that directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting of the stockholders for which (a) the Secretary
receives a notice that a stockholder has nominated one or more persons for election to the Board of Directors pursuant to these By-laws and (b) each such nomination has not been withdrawn by such stockholder or such nominee on or prior to the
date that is ten (10) days in advance of the date the Corporation files its definitive proxy statement (regardless of whether thereafter revised or supplemented) for such meeting of stockholders with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as a
result of which the total number of nominees for director exceeds the number of directors to be elected at such meeting of stockholders. Directors need not be stockholders.
SECTION 2. Nominations of Directors at an Annual Meeting.
(a) Only
persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as directors at an Annual Meeting, except as may be otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation with respect to the right of holders
of preferred stock of the Corporation to nominate and elect a specified number of directors in certain circumstances. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation may be made at any Annual Meeting only (i)
pursuant to the notice of Annual Meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (ii) otherwise by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof), (iii) by any
stockholder of the Corporation (A) who is a stockholder of record on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 2, (B) who is entitled to vote at the
Annual Meeting, and (C) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2 or (iv) pursuant to Section 15 of this Article III. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make
nominations at an Annual Meeting.
(b) In
addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be properly made by a stockholder pursuant to this Section 2 or Section 15 of this Article III, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of the
Corporation.
(c) To
be timely pursuant to this Section 2, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must be delivered or mailed to and received at the principal executive offices of the
Corporation, not 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; provided, however, that in the event that the Annual Meeting is called for a date that is not within thirty (30) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the
stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the Annual Meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of the meeting was
first made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an Annual Meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described
above. A stockholder’s notice given in accordance with this Section 2 must contain the names of only the nominees for whom such stockholder (or beneficial owner, if any)
intends to solicit proxies, and a stockholder shall not be entitled to make additional or substitute nominations following the expiration of the time periods set forth in this Section
2. For the avoidance of doubt, the number of nominees a stockholder may nominate for election at the Annual Meeting (or in the case of a stockholder giving the notice on behalf of a beneficial owner, the number of nominees a stockholder
may nominate for election at the Annual Meeting on behalf of the beneficial owner) shall not exceed the number of directors to be elected at such Annual Meeting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the Corporation at the annual meeting is increased effective after the time period for which nominations
would otherwise be due under Section 2 and there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming the nominees for the additional directorships at least one hundred
(100) days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 2 shall also be considered timely, but
only with respect to nominees for the additional directorships, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on
which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation.
(d) To
be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary pursuant to this Section 2 must set forth (i) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to
nominate for election or re-election as a director, (A) a fully completed and signed questionnaire in the same form required of the Corporation’s director nominees (which shall be provided to the Corporation at the same time as a stockholder’s

(e) No person shall be eligible for election

with the requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act), then except as otherwise required by applicable law, and subject to the supervision, direction and control of the Board of Directors, the Chairman shall declare to the meeting that the
nomination was defective and the defective nomination shall be disregarded and no vote shall be taken with respect to such nomination, notwithstanding that proxies and votes with respect to such nomination may have been received by the
Corporation. In furtherance and not by way of limitation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, (i) if the stockholder does not provide the information required
under this Section 2 to the Corporation within the time frames specified herein or (ii) if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not
appear at the Annual Meeting to present such nomination, such nomination shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that proxies and votes in respect of any such nomination may have been received by the Corporation.
(f) Any
stockholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other stockholders must use a proxy card color other than white, which shall be reserved for the exclusive use for solicitation by the Board of Directors.
(g) Unless
otherwise prescribed by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or Section 3 of Article II,
nothing in this Section 2 shall prohibit the removal or replacement of directors (with or without cause) or the filling of any newly created directorship resulting from an
increase in the number of directors or any other vacancy on the Board of Directors at a Stockholder Requested Special Meeting or pursuant to an action by consent or consents of the stockholders.
SECTION 3. Vacancies. Any newly created directorship resulting from an increase in the number of directors or any other vacancy on the Board of Directors may be filled by a
majority of the Board of Directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, or by resolution duly adopted by the stockholders. Any director elected to fill a newly created directorship resulting from an
increase in the number of directors or any other vacancy shall hold office for the term specified in the Certificate of Incorporation.
SECTION 4. Duties and Powers. The business 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 as are not by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-laws directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.
SECTION 5. Meetings. The Board of Directors of the Corporation may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or without the State of Delaware. Regular meetings of
the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such time and at such place, if any, as may from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board, if
there be one, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, or any three directors. Notice thereof stating the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting shall be given to each director either by mail not less than forty-eight hours before the
date of the meeting, by telephone, email or other electronic transmission on twenty-four hours’ notice, or on such shorter notice as the person or persons calling such meeting may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.
SECTION 6. Quorum. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided by law, at all meetings of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof, a majority of the members of
the entire Board of Directors or of the said committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business; and the act of a majority of the directors or members of the committee present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be
the act of the Board of Directors or of the said committee, as the case may be. A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal of directors or members of the committee if any
action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for that meeting. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof, the directors or members of the committee present
thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.
SECTION 7. Actions of Board. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if
all the members of the Board of Directors or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission. After an action is taken, the consent or consents relating thereto shall be filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee.
SECTION 8. Meetings by Means of Conference Telephone. Members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may
participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or such committee by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a
meeting pursuant to this Section 8 shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.
SECTION 9. Committees. The Board of Directors may designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. The Board of
Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of any such committee. In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, and in
the absence of a designation by the Board of Directors of an alternate member to replace the absent or disqualified member, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they
constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any absent or disqualified member. Any committee, to the extent allowed by law and provided in the resolution
establishing such committee, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation. Meetings of any committee may be called by the Chairman of such
committee, if there be one, or by any two members thereof other than such Chairman. Notice thereof stating the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting shall be given to each member by mail not less than forty-eight hours before the date of
the meeting; by telephone, email or other electronic transmission on twenty-four hours’ notice; or on such shorter notice as the person or persons calling such meeting may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances. Each committee shall
keep regular minutes and report to the Board of Directors when required.
SECTION 10. Compensation. The directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at
each meeting of the Board of Directors and/or a stated annual fee as a director. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of special or standing
committees may be allowed like compensation for attending committee meetings.
SECTION 11. Interested Directors. 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 or their 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 or their 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.
SECTION 12. Resignation of Directors. Any director may resign at any time for any reason. In such instance, the resignation shall be effective upon giving written notice
(including by means of electronic transmission) to the Secretary, unless the notice specifies a later time for such resignation to become effective, and no action shall be required by the Board of Directors for the resignation to become
effective. If the resignation of a director is effective at a future time, the Board of Directors may elect a successor prior to such effective time to take office when such resignation becomes effective.
SECTION 13. Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall annually elect one of its Independent Directors (as defined in the Corporation’s Corporate Governance
Policies adopted from time to time) to be Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Chairman shall preside at all meetings of the stockholders and of the Board of Directors. The Chairman of the Board of Directors shall also perform such other
duties and exercise such other powers as from time to time may be assigned to him by these By-laws or by the Board of Directors. During the absence or disability of the Chairman of the Board of Directors for any reason, the Vice Chairman of the
Board of Directors shall exercise the powers and discharge the duties of the Chairman. If there is no Vice Chairman, or, if the Vice Chairman is absent or unable to perform such duties, such other Independent Director as the Board of Directors
may designate shall exercise the powers and discharge the duties of the Chairman.
SECTION 14. Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may annually elect one of its Independent Directors to be Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors.
The Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors shall perform the duties specified in Section 13 above in the absence or disability of the Chairman of the Board of Directors
and shall perform such duties and may exercise such powers as from time to time may be assigned to him by the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
SECTION 15. Stockholder Nominations Included in the Corporation’s Proxy Materials.
(a) Subject
to the provisions of this Section 15, if expressly requested in the relevant Nomination Notice (as defined below), the Corporation shall include in its proxy statement for
any Annual Meeting of Stockholders: (i) the name of any person nominated for election (the “Stockholder Nominee”), which shall also be included on the Corporation’s form of proxy and ballot, by any Eligible Stockholder (as defined below) or group
of up to 20 Eligible Stockholders that, as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee acting in good faith, has (individually and collectively, in the case of a group) satisfied all applicable conditions and complied with all applicable
procedures set forth in this Section 15 (such Eligible Stockholder or group of Eligible Stockholders being a “Nominating Stockholder”); (ii) disclosure about the
Stockholder Nominee and the Nominating Stockholder required under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or other applicable law to be included in the proxy statement; (iii) any statement included by the Nominating Stockholder in the
Nomination Notice for inclusion in the proxy statement in support of the Stockholder Nominee’s election to the Board of Directors (subject, without limitation, to Section
15(e)(ii)), if such statement does not exceed 500 words; and (iv) any other information that the Corporation or the Board of Directors determines, in their discretion, to include in the proxy statement relating to the nomination of the
Stockholder Nominee, including, without limitation, any statement in opposition to the nomination and any of the information provided pursuant to this Section 15.
(b) (i)
The Corporation shall not be required to include in the proxy statement for an Annual Meeting of Stockholders more Stockholder Nominees than that number of directors constituting 20% of the total number of directors of the Corporation on the last
day on which a Nomination Notice may be submitted pursuant to this Section 15 (rounded down to the nearest whole number, but not less than two) (the “Maximum Number”).
The Maximum Number for a particular Annual Meeting shall be reduced by: (1) Stockholder Nominees whose nominations are subsequently withdrawn; (2) Stockholder Nominees who the Board of Directors itself decides to nominate for election at such
Annual Meeting; (3) the number of incumbent directors or director candidates that in either case will be included in the Corporation’s proxy statement for an Annual Meeting of Stockholders as an unopposed (by the Corporation) nominee pursuant to
any agreement, arrangement or other understanding with any stockholder or group of stockholders; and (4) the number of incumbent directors who had been Stockholder Nominees, or nominees of a stockholder pursuant to the advance notice requirements
set forth in Section 2 of this Article III, at any of the preceding three Annual Meetings of
Stockholders and whose reelection at the upcoming Annual Meeting is being recommended by the Board of Directors. In the event that one or more vacancies for any reason occurs on the Board of Directors after the deadline set forth in Section 15(d) but before the date of the Annual Meeting and the Board of Directors resolves to reduce the size of the board in connection therewith, the Maximum Number shall be
calculated based on the number of directors in office as so reduced.
(ii) If the number of Stockholder Nominees pursuant to this Section
15 for any Annual Meeting of Stockholders exceeds the Maximum Number then, promptly upon notice from the Corporation, each Nominating Stockholder will select one Stockholder Nominee for inclusion in the proxy statement until the Maximum
Number is reached, going in order of the amount (largest to smallest) of shares of the Corporation’s common stock that each Nominating Stockholder disclosed as owned in its Nomination Notice, with the process repeated if the Maximum Number is not
reached after each Nominating Stockholder has selected one Stockholder Nominee. If, after the deadline for submitting a Nomination Notice as set forth in Section 15(d), a
Nominating Stockholder becomes ineligible or withdraws its nomination or a Stockholder Nominee becomes ineligible or unwilling to serve on the Board of Directors, whether before or after the mailing of the definitive proxy statement, the Corporation:
(1) shall not be required to include in its proxy statement or on any ballot or form of proxy the Stockholder Nominee or any successor or replacement nominee proposed by the Nominating Stockholder or by any other Nominating Stockholder and (2) may
otherwise communicate to its stockholders, including without limitation by amending or supplementing its proxy statement or ballot or form of proxy, that the Stockholder Nominee will not be included as a Stockholder Nominee in the proxy statement or
on any ballot or form of proxy and will not be voted on at the Annual Meeting.
(c) (i)
An “Eligible Stockholder” is a person who has either (1) been a record holder of the shares of common stock of the Corporation used to satisfy the eligibility requirements in this Section
15(c) continuously for the three-year period specified in subsection (c)(ii) of this Section
15 below or (2) provides to the Secretary of the Corporation, within the time period referred to in Section 15(d), evidence of continuous ownership of such shares
for such three-year period from one or more securities intermediaries in a form that the Board of Directors or its designee, acting in good faith, determines acceptable.
(ii) An Eligible Stockholder or group of up to 20 Eligible Stockholders may submit a nomination in accordance with this Section 15 only if the person or group (in the aggregate) has continuously owned at least the Minimum Number (as defined below) (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends
or similar events) of shares of the Corporation’s common stock throughout the three-year period preceding and including the date of submission of the Nomination Notice, and continues to own at least the Minimum Number of shares through the date of
the Annual Meeting. The following shall be treated as one Eligible Stockholder if such Eligible Stockholder shall provide together with the Nomination Notice documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Board of Directors or its designee that
demonstrates compliance with the following criteria: (1) funds under common management and investment control; (2) funds under common management and funded primarily by the same employer; or (3) a “family of investment companies” or a “group of
investment companies” (each as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a nomination by a group of Eligible Stockholders, any and all requirements and obligations for a given Eligible
Stockholder that are set forth in this Section 15, including the minimum holding period, shall apply to each member of such group; provided, however, that the Minimum Number shall apply to the ownership of the group in the aggregate. Should any stockholder withdraw from a group of Eligible Stockholders at any time prior to the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders, the group of Eligible Stockholders shall only be deemed to own the shares held by the remaining members of the group.
(iii) The “Minimum Number” of shares of the Corporation’s common stock means 3% of the number of outstanding shares of common stock
as of the most recent date for which such amount is given in any filing by the Corporation with the SEC prior to the submission of the Nomination Notice.
(iv) For purposes of this Section 15, an Eligible
Stockholder “owns” only those outstanding shares of the Corporation’s common stock as to which such Eligible Stockholder possesses both: (1) the full voting and investment rights pertaining to such shares and (2) the full economic interest in
(including the opportunity for profit from and the risk of loss on) such shares; provided that the number of shares calculated in accordance with clauses (1) and (2) shall not include any shares (x) sold by such Eligible Stockholder or any of its
affiliates in any transaction that has not been settled or closed, (y) borrowed by such Eligible Stockholder or any of its affiliates for any purpose or purchased by such Eligible Stockholder or any of its affiliates pursuant to an agreement to
resell, or (z) subject to any option, warrant, forward contract, swap, contract of sale, other derivative or similar agreement entered into by such Eligible Stockholder or any of its affiliates, whether any such instrument or agreement is to be
settled with shares or with cash based on the notional amount or value of outstanding capital stock of Corporation, in any such case which instrument or agreement has, or is intended to have, the purpose or effect of: (x) reducing in any manner, to
any extent or at any time in the future, such Eligible Stockholder’s or any of its affiliates’ full right to vote or direct the voting of any such shares, and/or (y) hedging, offsetting, or altering to any degree any gain or loss arising from the
full economic ownership of such shares by such Eligible Stockholder or any of its affiliates, but not including any hedging with respect to currency risk, interest-rate risk or, using a broad index-based hedge, equity risk. An Eligible Stockholder
“owns” shares held in the name of a nominee or other intermediary so long as the Eligible Stockholder retains the right to instruct how the shares are voted with respect to the election of directors and possesses the full economic interest in the
shares. An Eligible Stockholder’s ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which the Eligible Stockholder has delegated any voting power by means of a proxy, power of attorney, or other similar instrument or arrangement
that is revocable at any time by the Eligible Stockholder. An Eligible Stockholder’s ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which the Eligible Stockholder has loaned such shares provided that the Eligible Stockholder
has the power to recall such loaned shares on five (5) business days’ notice and provides a representation that it (1) will promptly recall such loaned shares upon being notified that any of its Stockholder Nominees will be included in the
Corporation’s proxy materials and (2) will continue to hold such shares through the date of the Annual Meeting. The terms “owned,” “owning” and other variations of the word “own” shall have correlative meanings. Whether outstanding shares of the
Corporation are “owned” for these purposes shall be determined by the Board of Directors or its designee acting in good faith. For purposes of this Section 15(d)(iv), the term
“affiliate” or “affiliates” shall have the meaning ascribed thereto under the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act.
(v) No Eligible Stockholder shall be permitted to be in more than one group constituting a Nominating Stockholder, and if any
Eligible Stockholder appears as a member of more than one group, such Eligible Stockholder shall be deemed to be a member of only the group that has the largest ownership position as reflected in the Nomination Notice.
(d) To
nominate a Stockholder Nominee pursuant to this Section 15, the Nominating Stockholder must submit to the Secretary of the Corporation all of the following information and
documents (collectively, the “Nomination Notice”), not less than one hundred twenty (120) days nor more than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the anniversary of the date that the Corporation mailed its proxy statement for the prior year’s
Annual Meeting; provided, however, that if (and only if) the Annual Meeting is not scheduled to be held within a period that commences thirty (30) days before the first
anniversary date of the preceding year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders and ends thirty (30) days after the first anniversary date of the preceding year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders (an annual meeting date outside such period being referred
to herein as an “Other Meeting Date”), the Nomination Notice shall be given in the manner provided herein by the later of the close of business on the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to such Other Meeting Date or the tenth day
following the date such Other Meeting Date is first publicly announced or disclosed (in no event shall the adjournment or postponement of an Annual Meeting, or the announcement thereof, commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for
the giving of the Nomination Notice):
(i) one or more written statements from the record holder of the shares (and from each intermediary through which
the shares are or have been held during the requisite three-year holding period) verifying that, as of a date within seven (7) calendar days prior to the date of the Nomination Notice, the Nominating Stockholder owns, and has continuously owned for
the preceding three (3) years, the Minimum Number of shares, and the Nominating Stockholder’s agreement to provide, within five (5) business days after the record date for the Annual Meeting, written statements from the record holder and
intermediaries verifying the Nominating Stockholder’s continuous ownership of the Minimum Number of shares through the record date;
(ii) immediate notice if the Nominating Stockholder ceases to own the Minimum Number of shares prior to the date
of the Annual Meeting;
(iii) a copy of the Schedule 14N (or any successor form) relating to the Stockholder Nominee, completed and filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Nominating Stockholder as applicable, in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules;
(iv) the written consent of each Stockholder Nominee to being named in the Corporation’s proxy statement, form of
proxy and ballot as a nominee for the applicable meeting and to serving as a director if elected;
(v) a written notice of the nomination of such Stockholder Nominee that includes the following additional
information, agreements, representations and warranties by the Nominating Stockholder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each group member): (1) the information that would be required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination
pursuant to Section 2 of this Article III (other than the representations set forth in Section 2(d)(iii)(D) and (E) of this Article III); (2) a description of any agreement, arrangement or
understanding (including, regardless of the form of settlement, any derivative, long or short positions, profit interests, forwards, futures, swaps, options, warrants, convertible securities, stock appreciation or similar rights, hedging transactions
and borrowed or loaned shares) that has been entered into by or on behalf of, or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding that has been made, the effect or intent of which is to create or mitigate loss to, manage risk or benefit of share
price changes for, or increase or decrease the voting power of, such Nominating Stockholder with respect to the Corporation’s securities; (3) the details of any relationship that existed within the past three years and that would have been described

14a-1(l) under the Exchange Act (without reference to the exception in Section 14a-1(l)(2) (iv)) with respect to the Annual Meeting, other than with respect to such Nominating Stockholder’s Stockholder Nominee(s) or any nominee of the Board of
Directors; (7) a representation and warranty that the Nominating Stockholder will not use any proxy card other than the Corporation’s proxy card in soliciting stockholders in connection with the election of a Stockholder Nominee at the Annual Meeting

received by the Corporation), and the Nominating Stockholder may not, after the last day on which a Nomination Notice would be timely, cure in any way any defect preventing the nomination of the Stockholder Nominee, if: (1) the Corporation
receives a notice that a stockholder intends to nominate a candidate for director at the Annual Meeting pursuant to the advance notice requirements set forth in Section 2 of
this Article III without such stockholder’s notice expressly electing to have such director candidate(s) included in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to this Section 15; (2) the Nominating Stockholder or the designated lead group member, as applicable, or any qualified representative thereof, does not appear at the Annual Meeting to

or (6) the Corporation is notified, or the Board of Directors or its designee acting in good faith determines, that a Nominating Stockholder has failed to continue to satisfy the eligibility requirements described in Section 15(c), any of the representations and warranties made in the Nomination Notice ceases to be true and accurate in all material respects (or omits a material fact necessary to make the
statement made not misleading), the Stockholder Nominee becomes unwilling or unable to serve on the Board of Directors or any violation or breach occurs of any of the obligations, agreements, representations or warranties of the Nominating

15, the Corporation may omit from its proxy statement, or may supplement or correct, any information, including all or any portion of the statement in support of the Stockholder Nominee included in the Nomination Notice, if the Board of
Directors or its designee in good faith determines that: (1) such information is not true in all material respects or omits a material statement necessary to make the statements made not misleading; (2) such information directly or indirectly impugns
the character, integrity or personal reputation of, or directly or indirectly makes charges concerning improper, illegal or immoral conduct or associations, without factual foundation, with respect to, any individual, corporation, partnership,
association or other entity, organization or governmental authority; (3) the inclusion of such information in the proxy statement would otherwise violate the Securities and Exchange Commission proxy rules or any other applicable law, rule or
regulation or (4) the inclusion of such information in the proxy statement would impose a material risk of liability upon the Corporation.
The Corporation may solicit against, and include in the proxy statement its own statement relating to, any Stockholder Nominee.

ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION
SECTION 1. Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings other than Those by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 3 of this Article VIII, the Corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or
may hereafter be amended, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by
or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, nonprofit entity or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the indemnitee did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
SECTION 2. Power to Indemnify in Actions, Suits or Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 3 of this Article VIII, the Corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may
hereafter be amended, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that
he is or was a director or any officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, nonprofit entity or other
enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent
that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
SECTION 3. Exclusions. Notwithstanding Sections 1 and 2 of this Article VIII, except as otherwise provided in Section 6,
the Corporation shall be required to indemnify a director or officer in connection with an action, suit, or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such director or officer only if the commencement of such proceeding (or part thereof) by the
director or officer was authorized in the specific case by the Board of Directors.
SECTION 4. Authorization of Indemnification. Any indemnification under this Article VIII (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct
set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, (ii) by a committee
of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, (iii) if there are no such directors or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the
stockholders. To the extent, however, that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 1 or Section 2 of this Article VIII, or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.
SECTION 5. Good Faith Defined. For purposes of any determination under Section 3 of this Article VIII, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or,
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, if his action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information,
opinions, reports or statements supplied to him by the officers or employees of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or by a committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or on the advice of legal counsel
for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports or statements made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant, by an appraiser or by another person selected with
reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation or another enterprise as to matters such person reasonably believes are within such certified public accountant’s, appraiser’s, or other person’s professional or expert competence. The term
“another enterprise” as used in this Section 5 shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, nonprofit entity or other enterprise of which
such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent and shall also include employee benefit plans. The provisions of this Section
5 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 1 or 2 of this Article VIII, as the case may be.
SECTION 6. Claims for Indemnification. If a claim for indemnification under this Article VIII
(following the final disposition of such proceeding) is not paid in full within sixty (60) days after the Corporation has received a claim therefor by the director or officer, or if a claim for any advancement of expenses under this Article VIII is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after the Corporation has received a statement or statements requesting such amounts to be advanced, such director or
officer shall thereupon (but not before) be entitled to file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim. If successful in whole or in part, such director or officer shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim to the
fullest extent permitted by law. In any such action, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that such director or officer is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law.
SECTION 7. Expenses Payable in Advance. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in defending a threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding
shall to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such
amounts advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article VIII or otherwise.
SECTION 8. Non-exclusivity and Survival of Indemnification. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any By-law, agreement, contract, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or pursuant to the direction (howsoever embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the
policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Sections 1 and 2 of
this Article VIII shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article
VIII shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Sections 1 or 2 of this Article VIII but whom the Corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the General Corporation Law
of the State of Delaware, or otherwise. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article VIII shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.
SECTION 9. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is
or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such
capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article VIII.
SECTION 10. Meaning of “Corporation” for Purposes of Article VIII. For purposes of this Article VIII, references
to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had 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 of another corporation, 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 he would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.
