(Formed under the laws of the State of Delaware)

As Adopted by the Board of Directors as of November 27, 2007

ARTICLE I

STOCKHOLDERS

Section 1.                      Annual Meeting.  A meeting of the stockholders for the election of directors and the transaction of only such other business as is properly brought before the meeting in accordance with these By-Laws shall be held annually on a day between April 1 and April 20, inclusive, to be designated by the Board of Directors and in the absence of such designation, on the first Monday in April, or, if it be a public holiday, on the next succeeding busi­ness day.

To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be: (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board, or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder.  For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation.  To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation no earlier than November 15 and no later then December 15 immediately preceding the annual meeting of stockholders.  A stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting: (i) 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, (ii) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of the stockholder proposing such business, (iii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder, (iv) any material interest of the stockholder in such business, and (v) any other information that is required to be provided by the stockholder pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Securities Exchange Act"), in his capacity as a proponent to a stockholder proposal.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to include information with respect to a stockholder proposal in the proxy statement and form of proxy for a stockholder's meeting, stockholders must provide notice as required by the regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act.  Notwithstanding anything in these By-Laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at any annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.

The Chairman of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1, and, if he should so determine, he shall so declare at the meeting that any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

Section 2.                      Special Meetings.  Special meetings of the stockholders may be called by the Board of Directors or, subject to the control of the Board, by the Chairman, or in his absence, the President.  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).

Section 3.                      Place of Meetings.  Meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place, within or without the State of Delaware, as may be fixed by the Board of Directors.  If no place is so fixed, such meetings shall be held at the office of the Corporation in the City of Chicago, in the State of Illinois.

Section 4.                      Notice of Meetings.  Notice of each meeting of stock­holders shall be given in writing and shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.  Notice of a special meeting shall indicate that it is being issued by or at the direction of the person or persons calling or requesting the meeting.

A copy of the notice of each meeting shall be given, unless otherwise required by law, not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting, to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting.  If mailed, such notice is given when deposited in the United States mail, with postage thereon prepaid, directed to the stockholder at his address as it appears on the record of stockholders, or, if he shall have filed with the Secretary of the Corporation a written request that notices to him be mailed to some other address, then directed to him at such other address.

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, it shall not be necessary to give any notice of the adjourned meeting if the time and place to which the meeting is adjourned are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, and at the adjourned meeting any business may be trans­acted that might have been transacted on the original date of the meeting.  However, if the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment, the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record on the new record date entitled to notice under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 4.

Section 5.                      Waiver of Notice.  Notice of any meeting need not be given to any stockholder who submits a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy, whether before or after the meeting.  The attendance of any stockholder at a meeting, in person or by proxy, without protesting prior to the conclu­sion of the meeting the lack of notice of such meeting, shall constitute a waiver of notice by him.

Section 6.                      Inspectors of Election.  The Board of Directors shall, in advance of any stockholders' meeting, appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof.  The Board of Directors may designate one or more alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act.  If no inspector or alternate is able to act, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting.  Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute his duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.

The inspector(s) shall ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, determine the shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum and the validity of proxies and ballots, count all votes and ballots, determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspector(s), certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting and their count of all votes and ballots, and do such other acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders.  The inspector(s) may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist the inspector(s) in the performance of the duties of the inspector(s).  Any record or certificate made by the inspectors shall be prima facie evidence of the facts stated and of the vote as certified by said inspector(s).

Section 7.                      List of Stockholders at Meetings.  The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder.  Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting (i) either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation.  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.

Section 8.                      Quorum of Stockholders.  The holders of not less than one-third of the shares of stock entitled to vote thereat shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders for the transaction of any business, provided that when a specified item of business is required to be voted on by a class or series, voting as a class, the holders of not less than one-third of the shares of such class or series of stock shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of such specified item of business.

When a quorum is once present to organize a meeting, it is not broken by the subsequent withdrawal of any stockholders.

The stockholders who are present in person or by proxy and who are entitled to vote may, by a majority of votes cast, adjourn the meeting despite the absence of a quorum.

Section 9.                      Conduct of Meetings.  The Board of Directors of the Corporation may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of any meeting of the stockholders as it shall deem appropriate.  Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board

2

of Directors, the chairman of any meeting of the stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting.  Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) the determination of when the polls shall open and close for any given matter to be voted on at the meeting; (iii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iv) 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 chairman of the meeting shall determine; (v) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (vi) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants.

Section 10.                      Proxies.  Every stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy.

No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of three years from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy.  Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the stockholder executing or authorizing it, except as otherwise provided by law.

Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

(1)           A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy.  Execution may be accomplished by the stockholder or such stockholder's authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing such person's signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

(2)           A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by an electronic transmission, which shall contain or be accompanied by information from which it can be determined that the stockholder authorized the transmission.  If it is determined that such electronic transmissions are valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information on which they relied.  For purposes of this Section 10 and the remainder of these By-Laws, "electronic transmission" means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by the recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing, or electronic transmission authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used; provided, however, that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

The authority of the holder of a proxy to act shall not be revoked by the incompetence or death of the stockholder who executed or authorized the proxy unless, before the authority is exercised, written notice of an adjudication of such incompetence or of such death is received by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary.

Section 11.                      Vote of Stockholders.  Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, every stockholder of record shall be entitled at every meeting of stockholders to one vote for every share of stock standing in his name on the record of stockholders.

Directors shall, except as otherwise required by law, be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election.

Whenever any corporate action, other than the election of directors, is to be taken by vote of the stockholders, it shall, except as otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws, be authorized by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders by the holders of shares entitled to vote thereon.

3

Section 12.                      Fixing Record Date.  For the purpose of determining the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to or dissent from any proposal without a meeting, or for the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or the allotment of any rights, or for the purpose of any other action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a date as the record date for any such determination of stockholders.  Such date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other action.

When a determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof, unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

(b)           Expenses.  Expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by a person referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section 10 in defending or other­wise being involved in a proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon receipt of an undertaking (the "Undertaking") by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indem­nified by the Corporation.

The Chairman of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1, and, if he should so determine, he shall so declare at the meeting that any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

A copy of the notice of each meeting shall be given, {personally or}[unless otherwise required] by {first class mail}[law], not less than ten [(10)] nor more than sixty[ (60)] days before the date of the meeting, to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting.  If mailed, such notice is given when deposited in the United States mail, with postage thereon prepaid, directed to the stockholder at his address as it appears on the record of stockholders, or, if he shall have filed with the Secretary of the Corporation a written request that notices to him be mailed to some other address, then directed to him at such other address.

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, it shall not be necessary to give any notice of the adjourned meeting if the time and place to which the meeting is adjourned are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, and at the adjourned meeting any business may be trans­acted that might have been transacted on the original date of the meeting.  However, if the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment, the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record on the new record date entitled to notice under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 4.

Section 6.                      Inspectors of Election.  The Board of Directors shall, in advance of any stockholders' meeting, appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof.  The Board of Directors may designate one or more alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act.  If no inspector or alternate is able to act, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting.  Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute his duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability.

Section 8.{                                Qualification of Voters.  Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, every stockholder of record shall be entitled at every meeting of stockholders to one vote for every share of stock standing in his name on the record of stockholders.

Treasury shares as of the record date and shares held as of the record date by another domestic or foreign corporation of any type or kind, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation is held as of the record date by the Corporation, shall not be shares entitled to vote or to be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares.

2

Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian, conservator, committee, or other fiduciary, except a trustee, may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy, without transfer of such shares into his name.  Shares held by a trustee may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy, only after the shares have been transferred into his name as trustee or into the name of his nominee.

Shares standing in the name of another domestic or foreign corporation of any type or kind may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the By-Laws of such corporation may provide, or, in the absence of such provision, as the board of directors of such corporation may determine.

A stockholder shall not sell his vote or issue a proxy to vote to any person for any sum of money or anything of value except as permitted by law.

Section 9.                     Quorum of Stockholders.  The holders of not less than one-third of the shares of stock entitled to vote thereat shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders for the transaction of any business, provided that when a specified item of business is required to be voted on by a class or series, voting as a class, the holders of not less than one-third of the shares of such class or series of stock shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of such specified item of business.

When a quorum is once present to organize a meeting, it is not broken by the subsequent withdrawal of any stockholders.

The stockholders who are present in person or by proxy and who are entitled to vote may, by a majority of votes cast, adjourn the meeting despite the absence of a quorum.

[                      Section 9.                      Conduct of Meetings.  The Board of Directors of the Corporation may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of any meeting of the stockholders as it shall deem appropriate.  Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board of Directors, the chairman of any meeting of the stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting.  Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) the determination of when the polls shall open and close for any given matter to be voted on at the meeting; (iii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iv) 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 chairman of the meeting shall determine; (v) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (vi) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants.]

[                      Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

(1)                 A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy.  Execution may be accomplished by the stockholder or such stockholder's authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing such person's signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

3

(2)                 A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by an electronic transmission, which shall contain or be accompanied by information from which it can be determined that the stockholder authorized the transmission.  If it is determined that such electronic transmissions are valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information on which they relied.  For purposes of this Section 10 and the remainder of these By-Laws, "electronic transmission" means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by the recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing, or electronic transmission authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used; provided, however, that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

                       The authority of the holder of a proxy to act shall not be revoked by the incompetence or death of the stockholder who executed [or authorized ]the proxy unless, before the authority is exercised, written notice of an adjudication of such incompetence or of such death is received by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary.

Section 11.                      Vote of Stockholders.  [Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, every stockholder of record shall be entitled at every meeting of stockholders to one vote for every share of stock standing in his name on the record of stockholders.]

Directors shall, except as otherwise required by law, be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election.

Whenever any corporate action, other than the election of directors, is to be taken by vote of the stockholders, it shall, except as otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws, be authorized by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders by the holders of shares entitled to vote thereon.

Section 12.                      Fixing Record Date.  For the purpose of determining the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to or dissent from any proposal without a meeting, or for the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or the allotment of any rights, or for the purpose of any other action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a date as the record date for any such determination of stockholders.  Such date shall not be more than sixty [(60) ]nor less than ten[ (10)] days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty[ (60)] days prior to any other action.

When a determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof, unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

Dear Mr. Proczko:

Reference is made to the Employment Agreement and the Severance Agreement between you, as Executive, and Hartmarx Corporation (the "Company").  Hartmarx Corporation has been authorized by the Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors to amend the Employment Agreement and the Severance Agreement in certain respects, effective as of the date hereof, as set forth below.

A. Employment Agreement

1.  Section 1 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the first clause thereof, through the semi-colon ";" in line 4, and inserting the following:

"The Company hereby employs Executive and Executive hereby agrees to remain in the employ of the Company for an employment term ("Agreement Period") beginning on the date of this Agreement, and continuing in effect through December 31, 2009;"

2.  Section 3(a) is amended in its entirety to provide as follows:

"(a)During the Agreement Period the Company shall pay Executive an annual base salary of not less than Executive's base salary in effect as of

January 1, 2007 ("Base Salary").  Base Salary shall be paid in accordance with the Company's customary payroll practices.  Base Salary may be increased at the discretion of the Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Company Board of Directors (the "Committee") and once so increased shall not thereafter be decreased, except for across-the-board reductions similarly affecting all executives of the Company."

3.  Section 4(c)(iii)(D) is amended by deleting the reference to Section 7 and inserting a reference to Section 8 in its place.

4.  The introductory paragraph of Section 4(d) is amended to read as follows:

"(d)Good Reason.  The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason.  Good Reason shall mean the occurrence (without the Executive's written consent) of any one of the following acts by the Company, or failures by the Company to act, each of which shall be deemed to be a material negative change in the terms and conditions of Executive's employment:"

5.  Section 5(a) is amended by deleting the reference to Section 9 and inserting a reference to Section 10 in its place.

6. Section 6(b)(iii) is amended by deleting the second sentence thereof and inserting the following in its place:

7.  Section 6(b)(v) is amended in its entirety to provide as follows:

"(v)During the Severance Period the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive with life, disability, accident and health insurance benefits ("Welfare Benefits") substantially similar in all material respects to those which the Executive is receiving immediately prior to the Date of

(f)For purposes of this Section 7, any reference to severance of employment or termination of employment shall mean a "separation from service" as defined in Treasury Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h).  For purposes of this Agreement, the term "specified employee" shall have the meaning set forth in Treasury Reg.
