Second. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation is hereby amended by adding the following after the third paragraph of Article FOURTH, Section A:

 

“Upon the filing and effectiveness (the “Effective Time”) pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law of this Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, each twelve (12) shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 (the “Old Common Stock”) either issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation in treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one (1) share of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “New Common Stock”).

The Corporation shall not issue fractional shares of New Common Stock. The reverse stock split shall not increase or decrease the amount of stated capital or paid-in surplus of the Corporation, provided that any fractional share that would otherwise be issuable as a result of the reverse stock split shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share of New Common Stock. From and after the Effective Date, the term “New Common Stock” as used in this Article 4 shall mean common stock as provided in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.”

 

Third. Except as herein amended, the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation shall remain in full force and effect.
