For business to be properly brought before an Annual Meeting of Stockholders or a Special Meeting of Stockholders by a Stockholder, the Stockholder must have given written notice thereof, either by

personal delivery or by United States mail, postage prepaid, to the Secretary of the Corporation (the "Secretary") at the principal executive offices of the Corporation,

(2) with respect to a Special Meeting of Stockholders, not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to such meeting or not more than 10 days following the day on which public announcement of the date of the Special Meeting of Stockholders is first made, whichever is later.

Any such notice shall set forth as to each matter the Stockholder proposes to bring before the Annual Meeting of Stockholders or the Special Meeting of Stockholders, as the case may be, (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before such meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at such meeting, and, in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend either the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the "Certificate") or these By-Laws, the text of the proposed amendment; (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) if the Stockholder intends to solicit proxies in support of such Stockholder's proposal, a representation to that effect. The foregoing notice requirements shall be deemed satisfied by a Stockholder if the Stockholder has notified the Corporation of his or her intention to present a proposal at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders or the Special Meeting of Stockholders, as the case may be, and such Stockholder's proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by management of the Corporation to solicit proxies for such meeting; provided, however, that if such Stockholder does not appear or send a qualified representative to present such proposal at such meeting, the Corporation need not present such proposal for a vote at such meeting, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation. No business shall be conducted at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders or a Special Meeting of Stockholders, as the case may be, except in accordance with this
Section 8(a), and the presiding officer of any Annual Meeting of Stockholders or Special Meeting of Stockholders, as the case may be, may refuse to permit any business to be brought before such meeting without compliance with the foregoing procedures or if the Stockholder solicits proxies in support of such Stockholder's proposal without such Stockholder having made the representation required by clause (v) of the second preceding sentence.

(b) Nominations of persons for election as Directors may be made at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders or at a Special Meeting of Stockholders by
(i) the Board of Directors or (ii) any Stockholder who is a Stockholder of record at the time of giving of the notice of nomination provided for in this
Section 8(b) and who is entitled to vote for the election of Directors. Any Stockholder of record entitled to vote for the election of Directors at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders or a Special Meeting of Stockholders, as the case may be, may nominate a person or persons for election as Directors only if written notice of such Stockholder's intent to make such nomination is given, either by personal delivery or by United

States mail, postage prepaid, to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation,

(1) with respect to an Annual Meeting of Stockholders, not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding Annual Meeting of Stockholders; and

(2) with respect to a Special Meeting of Stockholders, not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to such meeting or not more than 10 days following the day on which public announcement of the date of the Special Meeting of Stockholders is first made and of the nominees to be elected at such meeting, whichever is later.

Each such notice shall set forth: (i) the name and address of the Stockholder who intends to make the nomination and of the person or persons to be nominated; (ii) a representation that the Stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice; (iii) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the Stockholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or nominations are to be made by the Stockholder; (iv) such other information regarding each nominee proposed by such Stockholder as would have been required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission had each nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board of Directors; (v) the consent of each nominee to serve as a Director if so elected; and (vi) if the Stockholder intends to solicit proxies in support of such Stockholder's nominee(s), a representation to that effect. The presiding officer of any Annual Meeting of Stockholders or Special Meeting of Stockholders, as the case may be, to elect Directors and the Board of Directors may refuse to acknowledge any attempted nomination of any person not made in compliance with the foregoing procedure or if the Stockholder solicits proxies in support of such Stockholder's nominee(s) without such Stockholder having made the representation required by clause (vi) of the preceding sentence.

(c) If any Special Meeting of Stockholders is adjourned, postponed or delayed for any reason, then the calculation of the date by which any notice must be given pursuant to this Section 8 shall be calculated from the date for which the Special Meeting of Stockholders was originally scheduled.

(d) Nothing contained in this Section 8 shall modify the applicability of (i) the requirements under Rule 14a-8(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") (or any successor rule), relating to the deadline for submission of proposals made by Stockholders to be included in the Corporation's proxy statement or (ii) any other requirement contained in

Indemnification

Section 1. General. The Company shall indemnify to the full extent authorized or permitted by law (as now or hereinafter in effect) any person made, or threatened to be made, a defendant or witness to any action, suit or proceeding (whether civil or criminal or otherwise) by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate, is or was a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company or by reason of the fact that such director, officer, employee or other agent, at the request of the Company, is or was serving any other company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, in any capacity. No amendment or repeal of this Section 1 shall apply to or have any effect on any right to indemnification provided hereunder with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

Section 2. Procedure. Any indemnification under Section 1 of this Article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct as defined by

applicable law. Such determination shall be made by either (i) the Board by a majority vote of a quorum of directors who are not party to such action, suit or proceeding or (ii) an independent legal counsel as set forth in a written opinion (it being understood that such independent legal counsel shall make such determination only if the quorum of directors referred to in clause (i) above is not obtainable or if the Board by a majority vote of a quorum of directors who are not party to such action, suit or proceeding so directs).

Section 3. Expenses. The expenses incurred by a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company in any action, suit or proceeding shall be paid promptly by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding at the written request of the director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or hereinafter amended; provided, however, that the director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company shall set forth in such request reasonable evidence that such expenses have been incurred by the director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, a statement that such expenses are permissible under the standards set forth under applicable law and an undertaking in writing to repay any advances if it is ultimately determined that the director, officer, employee or other agent is not entitled to indemnification under these By-Laws. Advances of expenses shall be made without regard to the ability to repay the advances. An indemnitee's obligation to repay the Company for advances shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon.

Section 4. Insurance. The Company may, but shall have no obligation to do so, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or other agent of the Company, or is serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another Company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of law.

Section 5. Exclusivity. The rights and authority conferred in this article shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may otherwise have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
