(the "Corporation") in Delaware shall be at 1209 Orange Street in the City of Wilmington, County of Kent, in the State of Delaware, and The Corporation Trust Company shall be the resident agent of the Corporation in charge thereof. The Corporation may also have such other offices at such other places, within or without the State of Delaware, as the board of directors of the Corporation (the "Board of Directors") may from time to time designate or the business of the Corporation may require.

ARTICLE II. STOCKHOLDERS

SECTION 1. ANNUAL MEETING. The annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors and the transaction of any other business shall be held on such date, in such city and state and at such time and place, or by means of remote communication, as may be designated by the Board of Directors, which shall be set forth in the notice of such meeting.

SECTION 2. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the stockholders for any purpose may be called at any time by a majority of the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer and shall be called by the Chief Executive Officer at the request of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote. Special meetings shall be held at such place or places within or without the State of Delaware, or by means of remote communication, as shall from time to time be designated by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice of such meeting.

SECTION 3. BUSINESS CONDUCTED AT A MEETING. At a special meeting of the stockholders, no business shall be transacted and no corporate action shall be taken other than that stated in the notice of the meeting. At the annual meeting of stockholders, any business may be transacted and any corporate action may be taken, whether stated in the notice of meeting or not, except as otherwise expressly provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. The Board of Directors may prescribe an order of business for meetings of stockholders. No business shall be conducted at a meeting of the stockholders except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section.

A proposal of other business that may properly be considered by stockholders at an annual meeting may be made only (A) pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting given by or at the

direction of the Board of Directors, (B) otherwise by or at the direction of the Board of Directors as permitted by law or (C) by any stockholder of the Corporation who was a stockholder of record at the time such stockholder gives notice of such proposal as provided for in this Article, who is entitled to vote on the proposal and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Article.

For business to be properly brought by a stockholder before the annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholder must give timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and such business must otherwise be a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder's notice of intention to propose other business at the annual meeting must either (A) be sent to the Corporation in compliance with the requirements of SEC Rule 14a-8, if the proposal is submitted under such rule, or (B) if not, be mailed and received by, or delivered to, the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the close of business on the 150^th day, and not later than the close of business on the 120^th day prior to the anniversary date of the most recent annual meeting of stockholders (the “Meeting Anniversary Date”); provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within thirty (30) days before or after the Meeting Anniversary Date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of the annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall the adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting, or the public disclosure of such an adjournment or postponement, commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

A stockholder's notice to the Secretary to submit business for action at the annual meeting of stockholders shall set forth either the information required by SEC Rule 14a-8 if submitted in accordance with and permitted by such rule or, if not in accordance with such rule: (a) as to each matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is being made, (i) the name and address of such person, (ii) (A) the class or series and number of all shares of stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially or of record by such person and any affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) or associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) of such person, (B) the name of each nominee holder of shares of all stock of the Corporation owned beneficially but not of record by such person or any affiliates or associates of such person, and the number of such shares of stock of the Corporation held by each such nominee holder, (C) whether and the extent to which any derivative instrument, swap, option, warrant, short interest, hedge or profit interest or other transaction has been entered into by or on behalf of such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, with respect to stock of the Corporation and (D) whether and the extent to which any other transaction, agreement, arrangement or understanding (including any short position or any borrowing or lending of shares of stock of the Corporation) has been made by or on behalf of such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, the effect or intent of any of the foregoing being to mitigate loss to, or to manage risk or benefit of stock price changes for, such

person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, or to increase or decrease the voting power or pecuniary or economic interest of such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, with respect to stock of the Corporation, (iii) a description of all agreements, arrangements, or understandings (whether written or oral) between or among such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business and any material interest of such person or any affiliates or associates of such person, in such business, including any anticipated benefit therefrom to such person, or any affiliates or associates of such person, (iv) a representation that the stockholder giving the notice (or a qualified representative thereof) will appear in person at the annual meeting to bring such business before the meeting, and (v) any other information relating to such person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with the solicitation of proxies by such person with respect to the proposed business to be brought by such person before the annual meeting pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In the case of any proposed nomination for election or re-election as a director, such stockholder’s notice shall also set forth: (1) the name and residence address of the person or persons to be nominated; (2) a description of all direct and indirect compensation and other material monetary agreements, arrangements and understandings during the past three years, and any other material relationships, between or among such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, and their respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, on the one hand, and each proposed nominee, and his or her respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, on the other hand; (3) such other information regarding each nominee proposed by such stockholder as would be required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for elections of directors, or would be otherwise required to be disclosed, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, including any information that would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to Regulation 14A had the nominee been nominated by the Board of Directors; and (4) the written consent of each nominee to be named in a proxy statement and to serve as a director of the Corporation if so elected.

Any person providing any information to the Corporation pursuant to this Section 3 shall further update and supplement such information, if necessary, so that all information provided (or required to be provided) pursuant to this Section 3 shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting and such update and supplement shall be delivered to or be mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting.

The officer presiding at the meeting of stockholders shall determine all matters relating to the efficient conduct of the meeting, including, but not limited to, the items of business. The presiding officer shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare that any putative business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures prescribed by this Article II, in which case such business shall not be transacted.

SECTION 4. NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Written notice of the time and place of any stockholders' meeting, whether annual or special, shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat,

by personal delivery or by mailing the same to him at his address as the same appears upon the records of the Corporation at least ten (10) days but not more than sixty (60) days before the day of the meeting. Without limiting the manner by which notices of meetings otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any such notice may be given by electronic transmission in the manner provided in Section 232 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Notice of any adjourned meeting need not be given except by announcement at the meeting so adjourned, unless otherwise ordered in connection with such adjournment. Such further notice, if any, shall be given as may be required by law.

SECTION 5. QUORUM. Any number of stockholders, together holding at least a majority of the capital stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, who shall be present in person or represented by proxy at any meeting duly called, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of all business, except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these Bylaws.

SECTION 6. ADJOURNMENT OF MEETINGS. If less than a quorum shall attend at the time for which a meeting shall have been called, the meeting may be adjourned from time to time by a majority vote of the stockholders present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote, without notice other than by announcement at the meeting until a quorum shall attend. Any meeting at which a quorum is present may also be adjourned in like manner and for such time or upon such call as may be determined by a majority vote of the stockholders present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present, any business may be transacted and any corporate action may be taken which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called.

SECTION 7. VOTING. Each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting may vote either in person or by proxy. Each stockholder entitled to vote shall at every meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one vote for each share of stock registered in his name on the record of stockholders.

Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot.

SECTION 8. NO ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken only at such duly called annual or special meeting.

SECTION 9. CONDUCT OF MEETINGS. The Chief Executive Officer or any Vice President designated by the Chief Executive Officer, shall preside at all regular or special meetings of stockholders.

SECTION 10. PROXIES. A stockholder may appoint a proxy to vote for the stockholder by submission of (i) an appointment form signed by the stockholder or the stockholder’s attorney-

in-fact or (ii) an electronic or telephonic transmission that contains or is accompanied by information from which it can be reasonably verified that the transmission was authorized by the stockholder or by the stockholder’s attorney-in-fact.  An appointment of proxy is effective when an appointment form or an electronic or telephonic transmission is received by the person authorized to tabulate votes for the Corporation. The proxy has the same power to vote as that possessed by the stockholder, unless the appointment form or electronic or telephonic transmission contains an express limitation on the power to vote or direction as to how to vote the shares on a particular matter, in which event, the Corporation must tabulate the votes in a manner consistent with that limitation or direction.

Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another Corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an “Indemnitee”), whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted or required by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in connection therewith; provided, however, that, the Corporation shall indemnify any such Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee only if such Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

The right to indemnification conferred above shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in defending any such Proceeding in advance of its final disposition (an “Advancement of Expenses”); provided, however, that, an Advancement of Expenses conferred to an Indemnitee (1) may be made subject to such restrictions as the Board of Directors deems appropriate (such as a demand for reasonable collateral) and (2) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an “Undertaking”), by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a “Final Adjudication”) that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Section 3 or otherwise.  The rights to indemnification and to the Advancement of Expenses conferred in Sections 3 of this Article 7 shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators.

The rights to indemnification and to the Advancement of Expenses conferred in this Section 3 shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under

any statute, the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification and to the Advancement of Expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the indemnification and Advancement of Expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

The actions we took to mitigate the impact of Covid-19, coupled with the improvement in business conditions in the third quarter, were instrumental in our ability to preserve liquidity and repay at maturity $300 million in Senior Subordinated Notes in August. I am confident in the strength of our financial position and our ability to reinstate the dividend at this time.”
