<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 5%">(A)&nbsp;<U>Annual Meetings of Stockholders</U>. (1)&nbsp;Nominations of persons for election to the
Board of Directors of the Corporation and the proposal of other business to be considered by the
stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (a)&nbsp;pursuant to the
Corporation&#146;s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (b)&nbsp;by or at the direction of the
Board of Directors or any committee thereof or (c)&nbsp;by any stockholder of the Corporation who was a
stockholder of record of the Corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section&nbsp;9 is
delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who
complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section&nbsp;9.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 3%">(2)&nbsp;For any nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a
stockholder pursuant to clause (c)&nbsp;of paragraph (A)(1) of this Section&nbsp;9, the stockholder must have
given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and any such proposed
business (other than the nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors) must
constitute a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder&#146;s notice shall be
delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the
close of business on the ninetieth (90<sup>th</sup>)&#093; day, nor earlier than the close of business
on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day, prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year&#146;s
annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more
than thirty (30)&nbsp;days before or more than seventy (70)&nbsp;days after such anniversary date, notice by
the stockholder must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred
twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the
later of the ninetieth (90<sup>th</sup>) day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth
(10<sup>th</sup>) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is
first made by the Corporation; and provided further, that for purposes of the application of Rule
14a-4(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;) (or any successor
provision), the date for notice specified in this paragraph (A)(2) shall be the earlier of the date
calculated as hereinbefore provided or the date specified in paragraph (c)(1) of Rule&nbsp;14a-4. 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&#146;s notice as described
above.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 3%">Such stockholder&#146;s notice shall set forth (a)&nbsp;as to each person whom the stockholder proposes
to nominate for election as a director (i)all information relating to such person that is required
to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is
otherwise required, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation&nbsp;14A under the
Exchange Act and (ii)&nbsp;such person&#146;s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a
nominee and to serving as a director if elected; (b)&nbsp;as to any other business that the stockholder
proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought
before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business(including the text of any resolutions
proposed for consideration and, in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the
By-laws of the Corporation, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting
such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the
beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; (c)&nbsp;as to the stockholder giving
the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i)
the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Corporation&#146;s books, and of such
beneficial owner, (ii)&nbsp;the class or series and number of shares of the Corporation which are owned
beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, (iii)&nbsp;a representation
that the stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such
business or nomination, and (iv)&nbsp;a representation whether the stockholder or the beneficial owner,
if any, intends or is part of a group which intends (A)&nbsp;to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of
proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation&#146;s outstanding capital stock required
to approve or adopt the proposal or elect the nominee and/or (B)&nbsp;otherwise to solicit proxies from
stockholders in support of such proposal or nomination; (d)&nbsp;a description of any agreement,
arrangement or understanding with respect to the nomination or proposal and/or the voting of shares
of any class or series of stock of the company between or among the stockholder giving the notice,
the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, any of their respective
affiliates or associates and/or any others acting in concert with any of the foregoing
(collectively, &#147;proponent persons&#148;); and (e)&nbsp;a description of any agreement, arrangement or
understanding (including without limitation any contract to purchase or sell, acquisition or grant
of any option, right or warrant to purchase or sell, swap or other instrument) the intent or effect
of which may be (i)&nbsp;to transfer to or from any proponent person, in whole or in part, any of the
economic consequences of ownership of any security of the Corporation, (ii)&nbsp;to increase or decrease
the voting power of any proponent person with respect to shares of any class or series of stock of
the Corporation and/or (iii)&nbsp;to provide any proponent person, directly or indirectly, with the
opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from, or to otherwise benefit economically
from, any increase or decrease in the value of any security of the company. To the extent that any
of the information provided in such stockholder&#146;s notice shall no longer be accurate as of the
record date for such meeting, such stockholder must, in order for such notice to be considered
timely, within ten (10)&nbsp;days after such record date give in writing to the Secretary of the
Corporation an updated notice setting forth accurately the foregoing information as of the record
date. The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may
reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of
the Corporation.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 3%">(3)&nbsp;Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph (A)(2) of this Section&nbsp;9 to
the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of
the Corporation is increased effective at the annual meeting and there is no public announcement by
the Corporation naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased
Board of Directors made by the Corporation at least eighty (80)&nbsp;days prior to the first anniversary
of the preceding year&#146;s annual meeting, a stockholder&#146;s notice required by this Section&nbsp;9 shall
also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such
increase, 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 (10<sup>th</sup>) day following the
day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 3%">(B)&nbsp;<U>Special Meetings of Stockholders</U>. Only such business shall be conducted at a
special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the
Corporation&#146;s notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may
be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the
Corporation&#146;s notice of meeting (1)&nbsp;by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or any
committee thereof or (2)&nbsp;provided that the Board of Directors has determined that directors shall
be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at
the time the notice provided for in this Section&nbsp;9 is delivered to the Secretary of the
Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and upon such election and who complies with
the notice procedures set forth in this Section&nbsp;9. In the event the Corporation calls a special
meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of
Directors, any such stockholder entitled to vote in such election of directors may nominate a
person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the
Corporation&#146;s notice of meeting, if the stockholder&#146;s notice required by paragraph (A)(2) of this
Section&nbsp;9 shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation
not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120<sup>th</sup>) day prior to
such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth
(90<sup>th</sup>) day prior to such special meeting or the tenth (10<sup>th</sup>) day following
the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the
nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting. In no event shall the
public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time
period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder&#146;s notice as described above.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 3%">(C)&nbsp;<U>General</U>. (1)&nbsp;Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures
set forth in this Section&nbsp;9 shall be eligible to be elected at an annual or special meeting of
stockholders of the Corporation to serve as directors and only such business shall be conducted at
a meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Section&nbsp;9. Except as otherwise provided by law, the chairman of the
meeting shall have the power and duty (a)&nbsp;to determine whether a nomination or any business
