SECTION 1. Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of stockholders for the election of Directors shall be held on such date and at such time as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors, at which meeting the stockholders shall elect a Board of Directors pursuant to Article III hereof and may transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting in accordance with Section 7 of this Article II.

SECTION 2. Special Meetings. Unless otherwise required by law or the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as the same may be amended, restated or supplemented from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), special meetings of stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, may only be called by either (i) the Chairman of the Board of Directors, (ii) the Chief Executive Officer or (iii) the Board of Directors. At a special meeting of stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall be specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto). The ability of the stockholders to call a special meeting of stockholders is hereby specifically denied.

SECTION 3. Location of Meetings. All meetings of the stockholders for any purpose may be held, within or without the State of Delaware, at such time and place as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by Section 211(a)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).

SECTION 4. List of Stockholders. The Secretary shall cause to be prepared a complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. The Corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, at the election of the Corporation, either: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the Corporation’s principal executive office. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall 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 to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.


(f) This Article II, Section 7 is expressly intended to apply to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders other than any proposal made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and any Proxy Access Notice (as defined below) submitted pursuant to Article III, Section 8. In addition to the requirements of this Article II, Section 7 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 Article II, Section 7 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 or the ability of any Eligible Stockholder (as defined in Article III, Section 8) to request inclusion of a Nominee in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Article III, Section 8.

SECTION 8. Notice to Stockholders. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given, which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders 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 law, written notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting.

SECTION 9. Quorum. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority in voting power of the Corporation’s capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. A quorum, once established, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the chairman of the meeting or the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice until a quorum shall be present or represented.

SECTION 10. Adjournment. The chairman of the meeting may adjourn any meeting of the stockholders from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place.

At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting in accordance with the requirements of Section 8 of this Article II shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting.

SECTION 11. Record Date. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of the stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the 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.
