ARTICLE XI

 

EXCLUSIVE FORUM FOR CERTAIN LAWSUITS

 

1. FORUM. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County in the State of Nevada (the “EJDC”) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring any Internal Action (as such term is defined in NRS Section 78.046(4)(c)) or Concurrent Jurisdiction Action (as such term is defined in NRS Section 78.046(4)(a)). If brought outside of Nevada, the stockholder bringing the suit will be deemed to have consented to service of process on such stockholder’s counsel, except for any claim (A) as to which the EJDC determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the EJDC (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the EJDC within ten days following such determination), (B) which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the EJDC, (C) for which the EJDC does not have subject matter jurisdiction, or (D) as to which the EJDC determines that the application of this Article XI, Section 1 to such action would be inconsistent with applicable jurisdictional requirements and the laws of the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Article XI, Section 1 shall not apply to claims or causes of action brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Stockholders cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article XI, Section 1.

 

2. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of Article XI, Section 1 immediately above is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Nevada (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Nevada in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce Article XI, Section 1 (an “FSC Enforcement Action”) and (ii) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such FSC Enforcement Action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

 

3. TRIAL BY JUDGE. Any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of Article XI, Section 1 above shall be decided by a judge (as opposed to a jury), to the extent permitted under applicable laws. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the waiver of jury trial set forth in this Article XI, Section 3 to the maximum extent permitted by applicable laws.

 

4. SEVERABILITY. If any provision or provisions of this Article XI shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article XI (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article XI containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article XI.

 

4. This Certificate of Amendment shall become effective at [5:00 p.m.] Eastern Time, on September [___], 2025.
