10.2 Determination of Record Date of Action by Written Consent. The record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be fixed as follows:

(a) Any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent without a meeting shall deliver written notice to the Secretary requesting that the Board of Directors fix a record date, which notice shall describe the action proposed to be taken by consent.

(b) Upon receipt of a valid request under subsection (a), or upon a determination by the Board of Directors that the Corporation should seek corporate action by written consent, the Board of Directors shall fix as the record date the 10th day following such receipt or determination (or such later date as may be specified by the requesting stockholder or by the Board of Directors, as applicable).If such date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the record date shall be the first day next following such date that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.

(c) Any record date determined pursuant to this Subsection 10.2 shall be announced by a press release prior to the opening of trading on the principal exchange on which the Corporation’s securities are listed for trading on the next trading day following receipt of a stockholder request under subsection (a) or a Board determination under subsection (b).

10.3 Duration and Revocation of Consents. Stockholders of the Corporation shall be given at least 20 days from the record date to deliver or revoke written consents. Consents to corporate action shall remain valid for a maximum of 60 days after the record date, after which any undelivered consents shall expire. A consent may be revoked by written notice delivered (i) to the Corporation, (ii) to the stockholder or stockholders soliciting consents (or soliciting revocations in opposition thereto) (the “Soliciting Stockholders”), or (iii) to any proxy solicitor engaged by the Corporation or the Soliciting Stockholder(s).

10.4 Retention and Duties of Inspectors of Election. Within two business days after receipt of a stockholder request under Section 10.2(a) or a Board determination under Section 10.2(b), the Secretary of the Corporation shall engage a nationally recognized independent inspector of elections to perform the functions described in this Section 10.4. The inspector shall review all consents and revocations delivered to the Corporation, maintain a confidential count of valid and unrevoked consents, determine whether the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents has been obtained to authorize or take the action specified therein, and forthwith certify such determination for entry in the records of the Corporation kept for the purpose of recording the proceedings of meetings of stockholders. The cost of retaining an inspector of elections shall be borne by the party proposing the action by consent.

10.5 Procedures for Counting and Challenging Consents. Consents and revocations shall be delivered to the inspectors upon receipt by the Corporation, the Soliciting Stockholders or their proxy solicitors or other designated agents. As soon as consents and revocations are received, the inspectors shall review the consents and revocations and shall maintain a count of the number of valid and unrevoked consents. The inspectors shall keep such count confidential and shall not reveal the count to the Corporation, the Soliciting Stockholders or their representatives. As soon as practicable after the earlier of (i) 60 days after the record date for the consents or (ii) a request therefore by the Corporation or the Soliciting Stockholders (whichever is soliciting consents) made after expiration of the period for giving or revoking consents under Subsection 10.3 above, notice of which request shall be given to the party opposing the solicitation of consents, which request shall state that the Corporation or Soliciting Stockholder(s) (as the case may be) in good faith believe that it or they have received the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents to authorize or take the action specified in the consents, the inspectors shall issue a preliminary report to the Corporation and the Soliciting Stockholders stating: (i) the number of valid consents; (ii) the number of valid revocations; (iii) the number of valid and unrevoked consents; (iv) the number of invalid consents; (v) the number of invalid revocations; and (vi) whether, based on their preliminary count, the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents has been obtained to authorize or take the action specified in the consents. Unless the Corporation and the Soliciting Stockholder(s) shall agree to a shorter or longer period, the Corporation and the Soliciting Stockholder(s) shall have 48 hours to review the consents and revocations and to advise the inspectors and the opposing party in writing as to whether they intend to challenge the preliminary report of the inspectors. If no written notice of an intention to challenge the preliminary report is received within 48 hours after the inspector’s issuance of the preliminary report, the inspectors shall issue to the Corporation and the Soliciting Stockholder(s) their final report containing the information from the inspectors’ determination with respect to whether the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents was obtained to authorize and take the action specified in the consents. If the Corporation or the Soliciting Stockholder(s) issue written notice of an intention to challenge the inspectors’ preliminary report within 48 hours after the issuance of that report, a challenge session shall be scheduled by the inspectors as promptly as practicable. A transcript of the challenge session shall be recorded by a certified court reporter. Following completion of the challenge session, the inspectors shall as promptly as practicable issue their final report to the Corporation and the Soliciting Stockholder(s) containing the information included in the preliminary report, plus all changes in the vote totals as a result of the challenges and a certification of whether the requisite number of valid and unrevoked consents was obtained to authorize or take the action specified in the consents.

10.6 Notice of Results. The Corporation shall give prompt notice to the stockholders of the results of any consent solicitation or the taking of the corporate action without a meeting and by less than unanimous written consent.

Page 3 of NUMPAGES 2

Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be determined in accordance with Section 10.2 of Article III. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held; and the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 12. Business to be Conducted at the Annual or Special Meeting of the Stockholders; Notice of Proposals. At any annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (ii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is entitled to vote with respect thereto and who: (a) was a stockholder of record (and, with respect to any beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf such business as proposed, only if such beneficial owner was the beneficial owner of shares of the Corporation) both at the time of giving notice provided for in this Section 12 and at the time of the meeting; and (b) complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 12.

Except for proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (as so amended and inclusive of such rules as regulations, the “Exchange Act”) and included in the notice of the meeting given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the foregoing clause (ii) will be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose business (other than with respect to director nominations) to be brought before the annual meeting of stockholders.

For business to be properly brought before the annual meeting by a stockholder, the Proposing Person (as defined below) must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. The Proposing Person’s notice will be timely if delivered or mailed to and received at the principal executive offices at the Corporation not less than 120 nor more than 150 days before the date on which the Corporation first mailed its proxy materials for the prior year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided however, that if such annual meeting is to be held on a date that is more than 30 days before, or more than 60 days after, the anniversary of the prior year’s annual meeting, notice by the Proposing Person, to be timely, must be so delivered, or mailed and received, not later than the 90th day prior to such annual meeting, or if later, the 10th day following the date on which public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was made.

Page 4 of NUMPAGES 2

of nomination is made, and (z) any affiliate or associate (each within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act for purposes of these Bylaws) of such stockholder or beneficial owner.

Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business (other than nominations of directors, which must be made in compliance with, and shall be exclusively governed by, Article III, Section 13 of these Bylaws) shall be brought before or conducted at the annual meeting except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12. The officer of the Corporation or other person presiding over the annual meeting shall, if the facts so warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12 and, if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business so determined to be not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

A stockholder providing notice of business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting shall further update and supplement such notice, as needed, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 12 shall be true and correct as of the record date for the meeting and as of the date that is 10 business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five business days after the record date for the meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date), and not later than eight business days prior to the date for the meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of 10 business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof).

This Section 12 is expressly intended to apply to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders; except this Section 12 shall not apply to any proposal made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, or to the nomination of persons for election to the Corporation’s Board of Directors at a meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected which shall be governed by Article III, Section 13 of these Bylaws. In addition to the requirements of this Section 12 with respect to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting, each Proposing Person shall comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act with respect to any such business. Nothing in this Section 12 shall be deemed to affect the rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

For purposes of these Bylaws, “public disclosure” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

The officer of the Corporation or other person presiding at the meeting shall, if the facts so warrant, determine that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12, and, if he or she should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

At any special meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors.
