ARTICLE II

STOCKHOLDERS MEETINGS

---------------------

Section 1. Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be held at such place within or without the State of Delaware and on such date and at such time as shall be designated by the Board of Directors and as shall be designated in the notice of said meeting, which day shall be not more than thirteen months after the preceding annual meeting, for purpose of electing Directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting. If no such place, date and time are fixed by the Board of Directors, then the meeting shall be held at the principal office of the Corporation on the last Tuesday of April, if not a legal holiday, and if a legal holiday, on the next succeeding day, at 10:00 a.m.

At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting.

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 of Directors, (b) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (c) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder who (i) is a stockholder of record on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 1 and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting and (ii) complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.

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, not earlier than the close of business on the 120th and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or, if the first public announcement or notice of the date of such annual meeting is made or given to stockholders less than 100 days prior to the date of such annual meeting, the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which public announcement was made or notice of the date of such meeting is mailed, whichever first occurs (such time periods with respect to a notice, “Notice Time Periods”). In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of a meeting of stockholders or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. As used in

these By-laws, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

To be in proper written form a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth (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 business is proposed to be brought (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of such beneficial owner, if any, and of each Associated Person (defined below) referred to in clause (iii), (ii) the employer and principal occupation of such stockholder, of such beneficial owner, if any, and of each Associated Person referred to in clause (iii), (iii) (A) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are, directly or indirectly, owned beneficially, or of record, by such stockholder, by such beneficial owner, if any, or by any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner, (B) any option, warrant, convertible security, stock appreciation right, or similar right with an exercise or conversion privilege or a settlement payment or mechanism at a price related to any class or series of shares of capital stock of the Corporation or with a value derived in whole or in part from the value of any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, whether or not such instrument or right shall be subject to settlement in the underlying class or series of capital stock of the Corporation or otherwise, or any other direct or indirect opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any increase or decrease in the value of shares of capital stock the Corporation (each of the foregoing, a “Derivative Instrument”), in each case that is, directly or indirectly, owned beneficially by such stockholder, by such beneficial owner, if any, or by any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner, (C) any short interest in any shares of capital stock of the Corporation held by such stockholder, by such beneficial owner, if any, or any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner (for purposes of this by-law a person shall be deemed to have a short interest in a security if such person directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, has the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any decrease in the value of the subject security), (D) any rights to dividends on the shares of capital stock of the Corporation owned beneficially by such stockholder, by such beneficial owner, if any, or by any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner, in each case that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of capital stock of the Corporation, (E) any proportionate interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments held, directly or indirectly, by a general or limited partnership or limited liability company in which such stockholder, such beneficial owner if any, or any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner is a general partner or manager or, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns an interest, and (F) any performance related fees (other than an asset-based fee) that such stockholder, such beneficial owner, if any, or any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner is entitled to based on any increase or decrease in the value of shares of capital stock of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments (the disclosures to be made pursuant to the foregoing sub-clauses (iii)(A) through (F) are referred to as “Disclosable Interests”); provided, however, that this clauses (b)(iii) shall not require that disclosure be made with respect to the ordinary course business activities of any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee who is an Associated Person solely as a result of being the stockholder directed to prepare and submit the notice required by these By-laws on behalf of a beneficial owner, (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder, beneficial owner, if any, or any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner, on the one hand, and any person or persons (including their names), on the other hand, relating to the Corporation or any of the shares of its capital stock, including any arrangements or understandings in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder, and any material interest of such stockholder, beneficial owner or any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner in such business, (v) a representation that such stockholder is a stockholder of record and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to bring such business before the meeting, (vi) a statement whether such stockholder or any other person known to the stockholder will deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation’s voting shares required under applicable law to carry the proposal and (vii) any other information relating to such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for such business in a contested solicitation pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Any such notice shall be updated and supplemented not later than five business days after the record date for the applicable meeting to disclose the information referred to in clause (b) as of the record date.

The foregoing notice requirements shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder with respect to a proposal of business if the stockholder has notified the Corporation of such stockholder’s intention to present such proposal at an annual meeting in compliance with Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereof) promulgated under the Exchange Act and such stockholder’s proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for such annual meeting.

Notwithstanding anything in the By-laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an 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 to 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 to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. If a stockholder or its proxy does not appear at the meeting to present its proposed business, such proposed business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies with respect to such vote may have been received by the Corporation.

An “Associated Person” of any stockholder or beneficial owner means (i) any affiliate of, or any other person acting in concert with, such stockholder or beneficial owner and (ii) each director, officer, employee, general partner, manager or affiliate of such stockholder or beneficial owner or any person with which such stockholder or beneficial owner is acting in concert.

Section 2. Special Meetings. Special meeting of stockholders may be called at any time in the manner provided in Article Fifteenth of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, may be held at such place within or without the State of Delaware and on such date and at such time as shall be designated by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice of said meeting. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or shall have otherwise been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors and stockholders shall not be permitted to propose business to be brought before a special meeting of the stockholders.

Section 3. Stockholder Action. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of such holders and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such holders.

Section 4. Notice of Meetings. Notice of the time, place, and purpose or purposes of every meeting of stockholders shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting either personally or by mail at the address of each stockholder as shown by the stock records of the Corporation, or by any other lawful means, not less than ten, or more than sixty, days before the meeting.

Section 5. Quorum. A quorum at all meetings of stockholders shall consist of the holders of record of a majority of the shares of the capital stock of the Corporation, issued and outstanding, entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or by proxy, except as otherwise provided by law or the Certificate of Incorporation. In the absence of a quorum at any meeting or any adjournment thereof, the chairman of the meeting may adjourn such meeting from time to time. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called. If a quorum is present at any meeting of stockholders and the meeting is adjourned to reconvene at a later time or date or different place, no notice need be given other than an announcement at the meeting of the place, date and time to which the meeting is adjourned, provided that if any adjournment, whether a quorum is present or not, is for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Section 6. Organization. The Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President or a Vice President, or if none of the foregoing is present, such person as may be chosen by the Board of Directors, or if there are not remaining directors serving, such person as may be chosen by the holders of a majority of the shares of capital stock present in person or by proxy entitled to vote at such meeting, shall call to order any meeting of the stockholders and act as chairman of the meeting. The Secretary of the Corporation, or in his absence, an Assistant Secretary, shall act as Secretary of every meeting, but if neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary is present, the chairman of the meeting shall choose any person present to act as secretary of the meeting. The chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the matters to be voted upon by the stockholders, the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seem to him or her in order. The chairman of the meeting shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another place, if any, date and time. The date and time of the opening and closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at the meeting shall be announced at the meeting. No ballots, proxies or votes, nor any revocations thereof or changes thereto, shall be accepted by the inspectors or the chairman of the meeting after the closing of the polls unless the Delaware Court of Chancery upon application by a stockholder shall determine otherwise.

Section 7. Voting. Except as otherwise provided by law, at every meeting of stockholders, each stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting shall have one vote in person or by proxy for each share of stock having voting rights held by him and registered in his name on the books of the Corporation.

Any vote with respect to stock of the Corporation may be cast by the stockholder entitled to vote in person or by his proxy appointed by an instrument in writing, subscribed by such stockholder or by his authorized attorney and delivered to the secretary of the meeting, or by an electronic transmission permitted by law filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting by the Corporation; provided, however, that no proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its

date, unless said proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy, unless coupled with an interest, shall be revocable at will, notwithstanding any other agreement or any provision in the proxy to the contrary, but the revocation of a proxy shall not be effective until notice thereof has been given to the Secretary of the Corporation.

A proxy shall not be revoked by the death or incapacity of the maker unless, before the authority is exercised, written notice of such death or incapacity is given to the Secretary of the Corporation. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether or not the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally.

Except as otherwise required by law or these By-laws, a quorum being present, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Subject to Section 2 of Article III, at all elections of directors, a quorum being present, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

Section 8. List of Stockholders. At least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, the Secretary shall prepare and make a complete list of 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 the stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting: (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 principal place of business of the corporation. 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 a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be examined by any stockholder who is present.

Section 9. Inspectors of Election. All elections of directors shall be by written ballot, unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation; the vote upon any other matter need not be by ballot. In advance of any meeting of stockholders the Board of Directors shall appoint one or more inspectors of election, who need not be stockholders, to act at such meeting or any adjournment thereof 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 of stockholders, the chairman of any such meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector's ability. No person who is a candidate for office shall act as an inspector.

If inspectors of election are appointed as aforesaid, they shall ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each; determine the shares represented at a meeting 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 inspectors; certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting, and their count of all votes and ballots; and do such acts as may be proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders. The inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist the inspectors in the performance of the duties of the inspectors. If there be three inspectors of election, the decision, act or certificate of a majority shall be effective in all respects as the decision, act or certificate of all. On request of the chairman of the meeting or of any stockholder or his proxy, the inspectors shall make a report in writing or any challenge or question or matter determined by them, and execute a certificate of any fact found by them.

Section 10. Record Holder of Shares. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner, and to hold liable for calls and assessments a person registered on its books as the owner of shares, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware.

Section 11. Fixing Record Date. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders, or to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may, except as otherwise required by law, fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days

before the date of any meeting of stockholders, nor more than 60 days prior to the time for such other action as hereinbefore described; provided, however, that 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 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, and, for determining stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of rights or to exercise any rights of change, conversion or exchange of stock or for any other purpose, the record date shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts a resolution relating thereto. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

ARTICLE III

DIRECTORS

---------

Section 1. Powers. The property, affairs and business of the Corporation generally shall be managed under the direction of the Board of Directors, who may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by law or the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

Section 2. Number, Qualification, Election and Terms. Except as otherwise fixed pursuant to the provisions of Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation relating to the rights of the holders of any class or series of stock having a preference over the Common Stock as to dividends or upon liquidation to elect additional Directors under specified circumstances, the number of Directors shall be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors but shall not be less than five nor more than twelve persons. No person who shall have attained the age of seventy two shall be eligible for election to the Board of Directors unless he shall be nominated by a three-fourths vote of the members of the Board present. The Directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders, except as provided in Section 3 of this Article III, and each Director shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until such Director's successor is elected and qualified, except as required by law.

If, in any election of Directors at an annual meeting of stockholders where the number of Director nominees does not exceed the number of Directors to be elected ( i.e., an uncontested election), a nominee for Director receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” his or her election (a “Majority Withheld Vote”), then such Director shall tender his or her resignation in writing to the Chairman of the Board of Directors promptly following the certification of the election results, which resignation will be conditioned upon acceptance by the Board of Directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall evaluate each resignation tendered pursuant to this Section 2 and shall recommend to the Board of Directors whether to accept or reject each such resignation. The Board of Directors shall act on each such resignation, taking into account the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, within 90 days following the certification of the election results. Upon making its determination, the Board of Directors will promptly disclose (i) its decision whether to accept or reject the Director’s tendered resignation and (ii) if rejected, the reasons for rejecting the tendered resignation. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in making its recommendation, and the Board of Directors, in making its decision, may consider any factors or other information that it considers appropriate and relevant. If a Director’s resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, then such Director shall continue to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until such Director’s successor is elected and qualified, except as required by law.

A Director who tenders a resignation pursuant to this Section 2 shall not vote with respect to the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or the decision of the Board of Directors as to whether to accept his or her resignation. If, however, each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee received a Majority Withheld Vote in the same uncontested election, then the Board of Directors will appoint a committee comprised solely of independent Directors who did not receive a Majority Withheld Vote in that election to consider each tendered resignation and make a recommendation to the Board of Directors with respect thereto.

Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as Directors of the Corporation. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors at any annual meeting of stockholders or at any special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing Directors may be made at such meeting (a) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof) or (b) by any stockholder who (i) is a stockholder of record on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 2 and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting and (ii) complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.

In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a stockholder such stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of the Corporation.

To be timely, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, (a) in the case of an annual meeting, within the Notice Time Periods as defined in Section 1 of Article II and (b) in the case of a special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing Directors, not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which notice of the date of the special meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of the special meeting was made, whichever first occurs. In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of a meeting of stockholders or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a Director (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of the person, (ii) the employer and principal occupation of the person, (iii) a biographical profile of the person, including educational background and business and professional experience, (iv) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially or of record by the person and (v) any other information relating to the person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for the election of Directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is proposed to be made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of such beneficial owner, if any, and of each Associated Person referred to in clause (iii), (ii) the employer and principal occupation of such stockholder, of such beneficial owner, if any, and of each Associated Person referred to in clause (iii), (iii) the Disclosable Interests (as defined in Section 1 of Article II); provided, however, that this clause (b)(iii) shall not require that disclosure be made with respect to the ordinary course business activities of any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee who is an Associated Person solely as a result of being the stockholder directed to prepare and submit the notice required by these By-laws on behalf of a beneficial owner, (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder, beneficial owner, if any, or any Associated Person of such stockholder or beneficial owner, on the one hand, and each proposed nominee and any other person or persons (including their names), on the other hand, relating to the Corporation or any of the shares of its capital stock, including any arrangements or understandings pursuant to which the nomination(s) are to be made by such stockholder or beneficial owner, (v) a representation that such stockholder is a stockholder of record and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons named as nominees in the notice, (vi) a statement whether such stockholder or any other person known to the stockholder will deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation’s voting shares required under applicable law to carry the proposal and (vii) any other information relating to such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for the election of Directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Such notice must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to be named as a nominee and to serve as a Director if elected. Any such notice shall be updated and supplemented not later than five business days after the record date for the applicable meeting to disclose the information referred to in clause (b) as of the record date.

No person shall be eligible for election as a Director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2. The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such defective nomination shall be disregarded. If the nominating stockholder does not appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to present a nominee, such nominee shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that proxies with respect to such vote may have been received by the Corporation.

Section 3. Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Except as otherwise fixed pursuant to the provisions of Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation relating to the rights of the holders of any class or series of stock having a preference over the Common Stock as to dividends or upon liquidation to elect Directors under specified circumstances, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of Directors and any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other cause shall be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining Directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, or by a sole remaining Director. Any Director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders and until such Director's successor is elected and qualified, except as required by law. No decrease in the number of Directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent Director.

Section 4. Removal. Subject to the rights of any class or series of stock having a preference over the Common Stock as to dividends or upon liquidation to elect Directors under specified circumstances, any Director may be removed from office, with or without cause, only by the affirmative vote of the holders of eighty percent of the combined voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class.
