The prior advance notice provisions relating to nomination of directors required nominations to be made no more than sixty (60) days prior to any meeting of shareholders.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety to the terms of the Amended and Restated Bylaws which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
