SECTION 2. OTHER OFFICES - The Corporation may have other offices, either within or without the State of Nevada, at such place or places as the Board of Directors may from time to time select or the business of the Corporation may require.

MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

SECTION 1. ANNUAL MEETINGS - Subject to Article II, Section 9 of these Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended from time to time, these “Bylaws”), annual meetings of stockholders for the election of Directors, and for such other business as may be properly brought before the meeting, shall be held at such place, if any, either within or without the State of Nevada, or by means of remote communication, and at such time and date as the Board of Directors, by resolution, shall designate from time to time.

SECTION 2. SPECIAL MEETINGS - Subject to applicable law, the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (as amended from time to time, the “Articles of Incorporation”), and the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock (as defined in the Articles of Incorporation), special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation, for any purpose or purposes, may be called from time to time by such persons authorized to do so by the Articles of Incorporation and not by any other person or persons. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice of the meeting sent by or on behalf of the Corporation. For avoidance of doubt, any nomination of Directors for election at a special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing Directors shall be subject to Article II, Section 9 of these Bylaws.

SECTION 3. VOTING - When a quorum is present at any meeting of stockholders, action by the stockholders on a matter will be approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, except (i) Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast, (ii) if the action is one upon which, by provision of applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a different vote is required, then such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such action. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after six months from its date unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only so long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the secretary a revocation of the proxy or by delivering a new duly authorized proxy bearing a later date.

SECTION 4. STOCKHOLDER LIST - The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete, alphabetical list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list may be examined by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the Corporation or on a reasonably accessible electronic network as provided by applicable law. If the meeting is to be held at a place, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is





held solely by means of remote communication, the list shall also be open for inspection as provided by applicable law. Except as provided by applicable law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

SECTION 5. QUORUM - Except as otherwise required by law, by the Articles of Incorporation or by these Bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy, of stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote at the meeting shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting. In case a quorum shall not be present at any meeting, the person presiding over such meeting or a majority of the voting power of the shares so present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the meeting shall have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement of the time and place of the adjourned meeting at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, until the requisite quorum shall be present; provided, however, that if the date of any adjourned meeting is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the meeting was originally noticed, notice of the time and place of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with these Bylaws, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting. At any such adjourned meeting at which the requisite quorum shall be represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.

SECTION 6. NOTICE OF MEETINGS - Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, notice of the meeting shall be given which notice shall state the place, if any, date and time of the meeting, the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting), and in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise required by applicable law (meaning, here and hereinafter, as required from time to time by the Nevada Revised Statutes, as amended from time to time (the “NRS”) or the Articles of Incorporation), the notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting. The Board of Directors may postpone or reschedule any previously scheduled meeting. Attendance of a stockholder, in person or by proxy, at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where the stockholder, in person or by proxy, attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of such meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Whenever the giving of any notice to Stockholders is required by applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver, signed by the stockholder entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by such stockholder, whether before or after the event as to which such notice is required, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purposes of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any waiver of notice.

SECTION 7. VOTING PROCEDURES AND INSPECTORS - The Board of Directors, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, shall appoint one or more inspectors, who may be employees of the Corporation, to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. The Board of Directors may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting, the person presiding over the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors shall (a) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, (b) determine the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (c) count all votes and ballots, (d) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors and (e) certify their determination of the number of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and their count of all votes and ballots. The inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist the inspectors in the performance of their duties. Unless otherwise provided by the Board of Directors, the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be determined by the person presiding over the meeting and shall be announced at the meeting. No ballots, proxies, votes or any revocation thereof or change thereto shall be accepted by the inspectors after the closing of the polls unless an appropriate court (as determined in accordance with the mandatory forum provisions of the Articles of Incorporation) upon application by a stockholder shall determine otherwise. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election.








SECTION 8. CONDUCT OF MEETINGS - The Board of Directors may adopt such rules and procedures for the conduct of stockholder meetings as it deems appropriate. At each meeting of stockholders, unless the Board of Directors otherwise provides, the Chief Executive Officer or, in the absence of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chairman of the Board or, if the Chairman of the Board is absent, the most senior officer of the Corporation present, shall preside over the meeting. Except to the extent inconsistent with any rules and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, the person presiding over the meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene, adjourn and reconvene the meeting from time to time, to prescribe such additional rules and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such person, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules and procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the person presiding over the meeting, may include, (a) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting, (b) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, (c) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the person presiding over the meeting shall determine, (d) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof and (e) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. The order of business at all meetings of stockholders shall be as determined by the person presiding over the meeting. The person presiding over any meeting of stockholders, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting, may determine and declare to the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and, if such presiding person should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or the person presiding over the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure. The Secretary or, in his or her absence, one of the Assistant Secretaries, shall act as secretary of the meeting. If none of the officers above designated to act as the person presiding over the meeting or as secretary of the meeting shall be present, a person presiding over the meeting or a secretary of the meeting, as the case may be, shall be designated by the Board of Directors and, if the Board of Directors has not so acted, in the case of the designation of a person to act as secretary of the meeting, designated by the person presiding over the meeting.

Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings. Unless the Board of Directors provides otherwise, each committee designated by the Board of Directors may make, alter and repeal rules and procedures for the conduct of its business. In the absence of such rules and procedures each committee shall conduct its business in the same manner as the Board of Directors conducts its business.

SECTION 5. MEETINGS - Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such places, if any, and times as shall be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the President, or by the Secretary if directed by Directors representing a majority of the voting power of the Board of Directors, on at least one day’s notice to each Director, and shall be held at such places, if any, and times as may be determined by the person or persons at whose direction the meeting is called.

At least 24 hours’ notice of any adjourned meeting of the Board of Directors shall be given to each Director whether or not present at the time of the adjournment; provided, however, that notice of the adjourned meeting need not be given if (i) the adjournment is for 24 hours or less and (ii) the time, place, if any, and means of remote communication, if any, are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken.

Whenever the giving of any notice to Directors is required by applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver signed by the Director, or a waiver by electronic transmission by such Director, whether before or after such notice is required, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance by a Director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when the Director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting was not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special Board of Directors or committee meeting need be specified in any waiver of notice.
