(d) A stockholder giving notice of any business to be considered at a meeting of stockholders shall further update in writing any notice provided pursuant to this Article II, Section 7, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice shall be true and correct (i) as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the meeting and (ii) as of the date that is ten (10) days prior to the meeting (or any postponement, adjournment or recess thereof), and such update shall be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation (x) not later than five (5) days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of such meeting.

The stockholder providing the notice shall notify the Secretary in writing at the principal executive offices of the corporation of any inaccuracy or change in any such information within two (2) days of becoming aware of such inaccuracy or change. Upon written request by the Secretary or the Board of Directors (or a duly authorized committee thereof), any such stockholder shall provide, within seven (7) days of delivery of such request (or such other period as may be specified in such request), (i) written verification, reasonably satisfactory to the Board of Directors, any committee thereof or any authorized officer of the corporation, to demonstrate the accuracy of any information submitted by the stockholder and (ii) a written update of any information (including written confirmation by such stockholder that it continues to intend to bring such nomination or business before the meeting) submitted by the stockholder as of an earlier date. If the stockholder fails to provide such written verification within such period, the information as to which written verification was requested may be deemed not to have been provided in accordance with this Article II, Section 7, as applicable. (f) For purposes of this Article II, Section 7, to be considered a qualified representative of the stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such stockholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such stockholder to act for such stockholder as proxy at the meeting of stockholders and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting of stockholders. (g) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Article II, Section 7, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of state law and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, with respect to the matters set forth in this Article II, Section 7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Article II, Section 7 is intended to and shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to submit a proposal to the corporation in compliance with Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Exchange Act for inclusion in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the corporation to solicit proxies for the meeting of stockholders.

917616.v1 7 (h) The Board of Directors may reject any stockholder proposal not made strictly in accordance with these Bylaws. Alternatively, if the Board of Directors fails to consider the validity of any stockholder proposal, the presiding officer of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the annual meeting that the stockholder proposal was not made in strict accordance with these Bylaws and, if he or she should so determine, he or she shall so declare at the annual meeting, and any such business or proposal not properly brought before the annual meeting shall not be acted upon at the annual meeting. This provision shall not prevent the consideration and approval or disapproval at the annual meeting of reports of officers, directors, and committees of the Board of Directors, but, in connection with such reports, no new business shall be acted upon at such annual meeting unless in compliance with these Bylaws. Section 8. Stock Records. It shall be the duty of the Secretary or other officer of the corporation who shall have charge of its stock ledger, either directly or through another officer of the corporation designated by him or her, or through a transfer agent appointed by the Board of Directors, to prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders of record entitled to vote thereat, 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 by any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days before said meeting, either at a place within the city where said meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of said meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The stock ledger shall constitute the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, such list, or the books of the corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders. ARTICLE IIA VOTING AT MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS Section 1. Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, every stockholder shall at every meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one vote in person or by proxy for each share of common stock held by such stockholder on the applicable record date as provided in these Bylaws. Shares of its own stock belonging to the corporation shall not be entitled to vote. Section 2. Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person(s) to act for him or her by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy specifically provides for a longer period. Each proxy shall be in writing executed by the stockholder giving the proxy or by his or her duly authorized attorney. Each proxy shall be revocable, unless expressly provided therein to be irrevocable or unless otherwise made irrevocable by law. At each meeting of the stockholders, and before any voting commences, all proxies shall be submitted to and examined by the Secretary or a person designated by the Secretary of the corporation or the secretary of the meeting, and no shares may be represented or voted under a proxy that has been found to be invalid or irregular.

917616.v1 8 Section 3. Voting by Stockholders on Matters Other Than the Election of Directors. With respect to any matters as to which no other voting requirement is specified by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, the affirmative vote required for stockholder action shall be that of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy (as counted for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum) and entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present. Section 4. Voting by Stockholders in the Election of Directors. Each director to be elected by the stockholders shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast at any meeting held for the purpose of the election of directors at which a quorum is present, subject to the following provisions: (a) Resignation of Incumbent Director Who Fails to Receive a Majority Vote: In any non-contested election of directors, any director nominee who is an incumbent director who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election (or “against” or “no” votes) than votes “for” such election shall immediately tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors, which resignation shall be irrevocable. Thereafter, the Board of Directors shall decide, through a process managed by the Nominating and Governance Committee (and excluding the nominee in question from all Board of Directors and Committee deliberations), whether to accept such resignation within ninety (90) days of the date of such resignation. Absent a “compelling reason” for the director to remain on the Board of Directors (as determined by the Board of Directors), the Board of Directors shall accept the resignation from the director. To the extent that the Board of Directors determines that there is a “compelling reason” for the director to remain on the Board of Directors and does not accept the resignation, the Board of Directors’ explanation of its decision shall be disclosed promptly in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. (b) Definition of “Compelling Reason”: For purposes of this Article IIA, Section 4, a “compelling reason” shall be determined by the Board of Directors (excluding the nominee in question from all Board of Directors and Committee deliberations) and could include, by way of example and without limitation, situations in which a director nominee was the target of a “vote no” or “withhold” campaign on what the Board of Directors believes to be an illegitimate or inappropriate basis or if the resignation would cause the corporation to be in violation of its constituent documents or regulatory requirements. (c) Consequences of the Board of Directors’ Acceptance or Non-Acceptance of a Director’s Resignation: If such incumbent director’s resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors, then such director shall immediately cease to be a member of the Board of Directors upon the date of action taken by the Board of Directors to accept such resignation. If the incumbent director’s resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, such director will continue to serve until the next annual meeting, or until his or her subsequent resignation. (d) Failure of a Non-Incumbent Director to Win Election: If any nominee for director who is not an incumbent fails in a non-contested election to receive a majority

917616.v1 9 vote for his or her election at any meeting for the purpose of the election of directors at which a quorum is present, such candidate shall not be elected and shall not take office. (e) Filling Vacancies: If an incumbent director’s resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors pursuant to this Article IIA, Section 4, or if a non-incumbent nominee for director is not elected, the Board of Directors may fill any resulting vacancy or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of these Bylaws. (f) Majority Vote Defined: For purposes of this Article IIA, Section 4, a majority of votes cast shall mean that the number of shares voted “for” a director’s election exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the total number of votes cast with respect to that director’s election. Votes “cast” shall include votes to withhold authority and votes “against” and “no” votes, but shall exclude abstentions with respect to a director’s election or with respect to the election of directors in general. (g) Vote Standard in Contested Elections: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article IIA, Section 4, in the event of a contested election, directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present. For purposes of this Bylaw, a contested election shall mean any election of directors in which the number of candidates for election as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected, with the determination thereof being made by the Secretary: (i) as of the close of the applicable notice of nomination period set forth in Article III, Section 4, based on whether one or more notice(s) of nomination were timely filed in accordance with these Bylaws; or (ii) if later, reasonably promptly following the determination by any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction that one or more notice(s) of nomination were timely filed in accordance with these Bylaws; provided, however, that the determination that an election is a contested election by the Secretary pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) shall be determinative only as to the timeliness of a notice of nomination and not otherwise as to its validity. If, prior to the time the corporation mails its initial proxy statement in connection with such election of directors, one or more notices of nomination are withdrawn (or declared invalid or untimely by any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction) such that the number of candidates for election as director no longer exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the election shall not be considered a contested election; in all other cases, once an election is determined to be a contested election, directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast. Section 5. Inspector of Votes. The chairman of the meeting may appoint up to two (2) inspectors of votes to act at each meeting of stockholders unless the Board of Directors previously made such appointments. Each inspector of votes shall first subscribe an oath or affirmation faithfully to execute the duties of an inspector of votes at a meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. Such inspector of votes, if any, shall take charge of the ballots, if any, at the meeting, and after the balloting on any question, shall count the ballots cast and shall make a report to the secretary of the meeting of the results. An inspector of ballots need not be a stockholder of the corporation, and any officer of the corporation may be an inspector of votes on any question other than a vote for or against his or her election to any position with the corporation or on any other question in which he or she

917616.v1 10 may be directly interested. ARTICLE III BOARD OF DIRECTORS Section 1. General Powers. The business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors, which shall have and may exercise all powers of the corporation and take all lawful acts as are not by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws directed or required to be exercised or taken by the stockholders. Section 2. Number, Qualification, and Term of Office. The number of directors that shall constitute the Board of Directors shall be established from time to time by a vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors; provided, however, that the number of directors shall be no fewer than three (3) and no more than fifteen (15). Except as provided in Article III, Section 6, the Board of Directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of the stockholders by written ballot and each director elected shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until a successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal as hereinafter provided. Section 3. Resignation. Any director may resign at any time upon written notice to the corporation. Such written resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, and if no time is specified, immediately upon receipt by the corporation. Unless otherwise specified in the notice, acceptance of a resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Section 4. Nominations. (a) Only persons nominated in accordance with this Article III, Section 4 or as provided in Article III, Section 5, shall be eligible for election to the Board of Directors. (b) If a person is to be elected to the Board of Directors because of an existing vacancy, nomination shall be made only by the entire Board of Directors or the Nominating and Governance Committee. The entire Board of Directors or the Nominating and Governance Committee shall also make nominations for the directors to be elected by the stockholders of the corporation at an annual meeting of the stockholders as provided in these Bylaws. (c) Nominations of individuals for election to the Board of Directors at an annual meeting of stockholders may be made by any stockholder of the corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors at that meeting who complies with the procedures set forth in this Article III, Section 4. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not earlier than 5:00PM Central Time on the one hundred and twentieth (120th) day nor later than 5:00PM Central Time on the ninetieth (90th) day (provided that if such ninetieth (90th) day occurs on a date that is not a day that the principal executive offices of the corporation are open, then the notice must be delivered or received no later than 5:00PM Central Time on the immediately preceding day such offices are open); provided, however, that in the event that the date of the

917616.v1 11 annual meeting of stockholders is advanced more than thirty (30) days prior to such anniversary date or delayed more than seventy (70) days after such anniversary date, or if no annual meeting of stockholders was held in the preceding year, then to be timely such notice must be received at the principal executive offices of the corporation no earlier than 5:00PM Central Time on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and no later than 5:00PM Central Time on the later of (x) the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting of stockholders or (y) the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such annual meeting of stockholders is first made by the corporation (provided that if such ninetieth (90th) day or tenth (10th) day, as applicable, occurs on a date that that is not a day that the principal executive offices of the corporation are open, then the notice must be delivered or received no later than 5:00PM Central Time on the immediately preceding day such offices are open). In no event shall the adjournment, recess or postponement of an annual meeting of stockholders (or the public announcement thereof) commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

Section 2. Electronic or facsimile signatures. Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be electronic or facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent, or registrar who has signed or whose electronic or facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent, or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if he or she were such officer, transfer agent, or registrar at the date of issue. Section 3. New Certificates. The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates previously issued by the corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate of stock to be lost, stolen, or destroyed. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his or her legal representative, to indemnify the corporation or to give the corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify the corporation against any claim that may be made against the corporation on account of the loss, theft, or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate. Section 4. Transfers. Upon surrender to the corporation or the transfer agent of the corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignation, or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the corporation, subject to any proper restrictions on transfer, to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate, and record the transaction upon its books. Section 5. Registered Stockholders. The corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share(s) on the part of any other person, whether or not provided by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
