D. Provisions Relating to Series A Preferred Stock.

Section 1. Dividends .

1A. General Obligation .

When, as and if declared by the Board of Directors and to the extent permitted under the DGCL, the Corporation shall pay preferential cumulative dividends in cash to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock as provided in this Section 1. Cumulative dividends on each share of Series A Share shall accrue on a daily basis at the Rate on the sum of the Liquidation Value plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon from and including the date of issuance of such Series A Share to and including the first to occur of (i) the date on which the Liquidation Value of such Series A Share (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon) is paid to the holder thereof in connection with a Liquidation, (ii) the date on which such Series A Share is converted into shares of Common Stock or (iii) the date on which such Series A Share is otherwise acquired by the Corporation. Such dividends shall be cumulative and accrue from the date of issuance whether or not they have been declared and whether or not there are profits, surplus or

other funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends. The date on which the Corporation initially issues any Series A Share shall be deemed to be its “date of issuance” regardless of the number of times transfer of such Share is made on the stock records maintained by or for the Corporation and regardless of the number of certificates which may be issued to evidence such Series A Share.

1B. Dividend Reference Dates . To the extent not paid on any Dividend Reference Date, all dividends which have accrued on each Series A Share outstanding during the three-month period (or other period in the case of the initial Dividend Reference Date) ending upon each such Dividend Reference Date shall be accumulated and shall remain accumulated dividends with respect to such Series A Share until paid to the holder thereof.

1C. Distribution of Partial Dividend Payments. Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Corporation pays less than the total amount of dividends then accrued with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, such payment shall be distributed pro rata among the holders thereof based upon the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A Shares held by each such holder. Any such payment of dividends shall be applied first to pay accrued and unpaid dividends that are not accumulated dividends, and second to pay accrued and unpaid dividends that are accumulated dividends.

Section 2. Liquidation .

Upon any Liquidation, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, before any distribution or payment is made upon any Junior Securities, an amount in cash equal to the aggregate Liquidation Value of all Series A Shares held by such holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon), and the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any further payment. If, upon any such Liquidation, the Corporation’s assets to be distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are insufficient to permit payment to such holders of the aggregate amount which they are entitled to be paid under this Section 2, then the entire assets available to be distributed to the Corporation’s stockholders shall be distributed pro rata among such holders based upon the aggregate Liquidation Value of, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on, the Series A Shares held by each such holder. Not less than 30 days prior to the payment date stated therein, the Corporation shall mail written notice of any such Liquidation to each record holder of Series A Preferred Stock, setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of proceeds to be paid with respect to each Series A Share and each share of Junior Securities in connection with such Liquidation.

Section 3. Priority of Series A Preferred Stock .

So long as any Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares, the Corporation shall not, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire directly or indirectly any Junior Securities for consideration, nor shall the Corporation (nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to) directly or indirectly pay or declare any dividend or make any distribution upon any Junior Securities, except for cash payments, if any, in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares in connection with the conversion of any Junior Securities; provided that the Corporation may repurchase shares of Junior Securities from present or former employees of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of any stock option plan adopted by the Corporation’s Board of Directors or pursuant to written agreements with employees of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries that have been approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

Section 4. Redemptions.

4A. Optional Redemptions . The Corporation may at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty, redeem all or any portion of the Series A Shares then outstanding. Upon any such redemption, the Corporation shall pay a price per Series A Share equal to the Liquidation Value thereof (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon).

4B. Redemption Payments . For each Series A Share which is to be redeemed hereunder, the Corporation shall be obligated on the Redemption Date to pay to the holder thereof (upon surrender by such holder at the Corporation’s principal office of the certificate representing such Series A Share) an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the Liquidation Value, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, of such Series A Share. If the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption of Series A Share on any Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of Series A Share to be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally available shall be used to redeem the maximum possible number of Series A Share pro rata among the holders of the Series A

Share to be redeemed based upon the aggregate Liquidation Value of such Series A Share held by each such holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon). At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation are legally available for the redemption of Series A Share, such funds shall immediately be used to redeem the balance of the Series A Share which the Corporation has become obligated to redeem on any Redemption Date but which it has not redeemed.

4C. Notice of Redemption . Except as otherwise provided herein, the Corporation shall mail or messenger written notice of each redemption of a Series A Share to each record holder thereof not more than 60 nor less than 2 days prior to the Redemption Date. In case fewer than the total number of Series A Shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate representing the number of unredeemed Series A Shares shall be issued to the holder thereof without cost to such holder within five business days after surrender of the certificate representing the redeemed Series A Shares. The Corporation may state in any such notice of redemption of Series A Shares that the dollar amount of Series A Shares to be redeemed will be up to an aggregate dollar amount to be determined by the Corporation upon the Redemption Date, and may be conditioned upon, and effected at the time of, the closing with the underwriters of the sale of securities pursuant to a Qualified Public Offering.

4D. Dividends After Redemption Date . No Series A Share shall be entitled to any dividends accruing after the date on which the Liquidation Value of such Series A Share (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon) is paid to the holder of such Series A Share. On such date, all rights of the holder of such Series A Share shall cease, and such Series A Share shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding.

4E. Redeemed or Otherwise Acquired Shares . Any Series A Shares which are redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall be canceled and retired to authorized but unissued shares and shall not be reissued, sold or transferred.

4F. Determination of the Number of Each Holder’s Shares to be Redeemed . Except as otherwise provided herein, any Series A Shares to be redeemed hereunder shall be redeemed pro rata among the holders of Series A Shares based upon the aggregate Liquidation Value of, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on, the Series A Shares held by each such holder.

Section 5. Conversion.

5A. Conversion upon Request . The holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares may, by giving written notice to the Corporation not less than two days nor more than 60 days prior to the consummation of the Corporation’s first Qualified Public Offering, require the Corporation to convert all or a portion of the Series A Shares held by all holders thereof into a number of shares of Common Stock, determined with respect to each Series A Share by dividing the Liquidation Value of, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on, such Series A Share at the effective time of such conversion by the price per share to the public of the Common Stock in such Qualified Public Offering. The Corporation shall mail written notice to each record holder of Series A Shares within 20 days following the filing of the initial registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the Corporation’s Qualified Public Offering. In the case of a partial conversion, such conversion shall be pro rata to all holders of Series A Shares based on the aggregate Liquidation Value of, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on, the Series A Shares held by each holder of Series A Preferred Stock. Any such conversion shall be conditioned upon, and effected at the time of, the closing with the underwriters of the sale of securities pursuant to such Qualified Public Offering.

5B. Time of Conversion . In the event of a conversion pursuant to Section 5A, the outstanding Series A Shares converted under Section 5A shall be converted automatically without any further action by the holder of such Shares and whether or not the certificates representing such Series A Shares are surrendered to the Corporation or the transfer agent for such Series A Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such automatic conversion unless the certificates evidencing such Series A Shares are either delivered to the Corporation or any transfer agent for such Series A Preferred Stock, or the holder notifies the Corporation or the transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Series A Preferred Stock, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled.

5C. Conversion Procedure .

(i) As soon as possible after a conversion has been effected (but in any event within five business days in the case of subparagraph (a) below), the Corporation shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting holder:

(a) a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable by reason of such conversion in such name or names and such denomination or denominations as the converting holder has specified; and

(b) a certificate representing any Series A Shares which were represented by the certificate or certificates delivered to the Corporation in connection with such conversion but which were not converted.

(ii) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Series A Shares shall be made without charge to the holders of such Series A Shares for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Corporation in connection with such conversion and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock. Upon conversion of each Series A Share, the Corporation shall take all such actions as are necessary in order to insure that (A) the Common Stock issuable with respect to such conversion shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all taxes, liens, charges and encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof (other than restrictions imposed by federal or state securities laws or liens, charges or encumbrances created by the holder), and (B) that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Corporation upon each such issuance).

(iii) The Corporation shall not close its books against the transfer of Series A Preferred Stock or of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of Series A Shares in any manner that interferes with the timely conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall assist and cooperate with any holder of Series A Shares required to make any governmental filings or obtain any governmental approval prior to or in connection with any conversion of Series A Shares hereunder (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made by the Corporation).

(iv) The Corporation shall, in connection with the consummation of its first Qualified Public Offering, reserve and make available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock for which a conversion election has been made pursuant to Section 5A.

(v) If any fractional interest in a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this subparagraph, be delivered upon any conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation, in lieu of delivering the fractional share therefore, shall pay an amount to the holder thereof equal to the price per share to the public of the Common Stock in the Qualified Public Offering multiplied by such fractional interest.

Section 6. Voting Rights . Except as otherwise required by applicable law, the Series A Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all stockholders meetings in accordance with the Corporation’s Bylaws and to the same extent and in the same manner delivered to holders of Common Stock.

E. Power to Sell and Purchase Shares.

Subject to the requirements of applicable law, the Corporation shall have the power to issue and sell all or any part of any shares of any class of stock herein or hereafter authorized to such persons, and for such consideration, as the Board of Directors shall from time to time, in its discretion, determine, whether or not greater consideration could be received upon the issue or sale of the same number of shares of another class, and as otherwise permitted by law. Subject to the requirements of applicable law, the Corporation shall have the power to purchase any shares of any class of stock herein or hereafter authorized from such persons, and for such consideration, as the Board of Directors shall from time to time, in its discretion, determine, whether or not less consideration could be paid upon the purchase of the same number of shares of another class, and as otherwise permitted by law.

ARTICLE SIXTH:

No director shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. If the DGCL is amended hereafter to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as so amended. Any repeal or modification of this Article SIXTH by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

ARTICLE SEVENTH:

A. In recognition and anticipation that (a) the directors, officers or employees of IPC may serve as directors or officers of the Corporation, (b) IPC and the Affiliated Companies (as defined below) thereof engage and may

continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage or other business activities that overlap with or compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage, and (c) that the Corporation and the Affiliated Companies thereof will engage in material business transactions with IPC and Affiliated Companies thereof and that the Corporation is expected to benefit therefrom, the provisions of this Article Seventh are set forth to regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation as they may involve IPC or Affiliated Companies and its officers and directors, and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation and its officers, directors and stockholders in connection therewith.

B. None of IPC and any of its Affiliated Companies shall have any duty to refrain from (i) engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies, (ii) any decision or action to enforce its rights under any agreement or contract with the Corporation, (iii) doing business with any of the Corporation’s clients or customers, or (iv) employing or otherwise engaging any of the Corporation’s officers or employees and none of IPC and any officer, director or employee thereof (except as provided in paragraph C below) shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of any such activities of IPC or any of its Affiliated Companies. In the event that IPC or any of its Affiliated Companies acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for itself and the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies, none of IPC and any of its Affiliated Companies shall have any duty to communicate or offer such corporate opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies and shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder of the Corporation solely by reason of the fact that IPC or any of its Affiliated Companies pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person, or does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Corporation.

C. In the event that a director or officer of the Corporation who is also a director, officer or employee of IPC acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies and IPC or any of its Affiliated Companies, such director or officer of the Corporation shall have fully satisfied and fulfilled the fiduciary duty of such director or officer to the Corporation and its stockholders with respect to such corporate opportunity, if such director or officer acts in a manner consistent with the following policy:

(a) A corporate opportunity offered to any Person who is a director or officer of the Corporation, and who is also a director, officer or employee of IPC, shall belong to the Corporation if such opportunity is expressly offered to such Person in writing solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation and not separately offered to IPC or any of its officers, directors or employees.

(b) Otherwise, such corporate opportunity shall belong to IPC.

D. In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article Seventh, a corporate opportunity shall not be deemed to belong to the Corporation if it is a business opportunity that the Corporation is not permitted to undertake under the terms of Article Three or that the Corporation is not financially able or contractually permitted or legally able to undertake, or that is, from its nature, not in the line of the Corporation’s business or is of no practical advantage to it or that is one in which the Corporation has no interest or reasonable expectancy.

E. 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 SEVENTH.

F. If any contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction between the Corporation and IPC involves a corporate opportunity and is approved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article EIGHTH of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, IPC and its officers, directors and employees shall also for the purposes of this Article SEVENTH and the other provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation: (i) have fully satisfied and fulfilled their fiduciary duties to the Corporation and its stockholders and not be liable to the Corporation and its stockholders with respect to the Corporate opportunity; (ii) be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such persons reasonably believe to be in, and not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation; and (iii) be deemed not to have breached their duties of loyalty to the Corporation and its stockholders and not to have derived an improper personal economic gain therefrom. Any such contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction involving a corporate opportunity not so approved shall not by reason thereof result in any such breach of any fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty or failure to act in good faith or in the best interests of the Corporation or derivation of any improper personal benefit, but shall be governed by the other provisions of this Article SEVENTH, this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the By-Laws, the DGCL and other applicable law.

G. Notwithstanding anything in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary and in addition to any vote of the Board of Directors required by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the DGCL, until the occurrence of the Operative Date, the affirmative vote of at least sixty-six and two thirds percent (66 ² /3%) of the votes entitled to be cast thereon shall be required to alter, amend or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, any provision of this Article SEVENTH.

In anticipation that the Corporation and IPC or any of its Affiliated Companies may enter into contracts or otherwise transact business with each other and that the Corporation may derive benefits therefrom, the provisions of this Article EIGHTH are set forth to regulate and define certain contractual relations and other business relations of the Corporation as they may involve IPC or any of its Affiliated Companies, and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation in connection therewith. The provisions of this Article EIGHTH are in addition to, and not in limitation of, the provisions of the DGCL and the other provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Any contract or business relation which does not comply with the procedures set forth in this Article EIGHTH shall not by reason thereof be deemed void or voidable or result in any breach of any fiduciary duty or duty of loyalty or failure to act in good faith or in the best interests of the Corporation or derivation of any improper personal economic gain, but shall be governed by the provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the By-Laws, the DGCL and other applicable law.

In the event that IPC or any of its Affiliated Companies enters into an agreement or transaction with the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies, a director or officer of the Corporation who is also a director, officer or employee of IPC shall (i) have fully satisfied and fulfilled the fiduciary duty of such director or officer to the Corporation and its stockholders with respect to such agreement or transaction, (ii) not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders with respect to such agreement or transactions; (iii) be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner it believed to be in, and not opposed to, the Corporation’s best interests; and (iv) not be deemed to (a) have

breached its duties of loyalty to the Corporation and its stockholders and (b) derived an improper personal benefit therefrom, if:

(i) The agreement or transaction was approved, after being made aware of the material facts of the relationship between each of the Corporation or an Affiliated Company thereof and IPC or an Affiliated Company thereof and the material terms and facts of the agreement or transaction, by (a) an affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation who are not persons or entities with a material financial interest in the agreement or transaction (“Interested Persons”), even if such members do not constitute a quorum, (b) an affirmative vote of a majority of the members of a committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation consisting of members who are not Interested Persons or (c) one or more of the Corporation’s officers or employees who are not Interested Persons and who were authorized to approve such transaction by the Board of Directors of the Corporation or committee thereof in the manner set forth in (a) and (b) above.

(ii) The agreement or transaction was fair to the Corporation at the time the agreement or transaction was entered into by the Corporation; or

(iii) The agreement or transaction was approved by an affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock entitled to vote, excluding IPC, any Affiliated Company or Interested Person.

C. Directors of the Corporation who are also directors or officers of IPC may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a committee which authorizes the contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction. Common Stock owned by IPC may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of stockholders which authorizes the contract, agreement, arrangement or transaction.

F. Notwithstanding anything in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary and in addition to any vote of the Board of Directors required by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the DGCL, until the occurrence of the Operative Date, the affirmative vote of at least sixty-six and two thirds percent (66 ² /3%) of the votes entitled to be cast thereon shall be required to alter, amend or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, any provision of this Article EIGHTH. Neither the alteration, amendment or repeal of this Article EIGHTH nor the adoption of any provision inconsistent with this Article EIGHTH shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article EIGHTH in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article EIGHTH, would accrue or arise, prior to such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption.

ARTICLE NINTH:

B. The Corporation shall not, without the written consent of IPC, engage, directly or indirectly, in any act or activity which would result, either alone or after giving effect to the business, operations, properties, activities and legal and regulatory status of IPC and the Corporation, in: (i) IPC being required to file any notice, report or other document or make any registration with, obtain any approval, consent or authorization of or otherwise become subject to any statutes, rules, regulations, ordinances, orders, decrees or other legal restrictions of any federal, state, local or foreign governmental, administrative or regulatory authority, agency or instrumentality (collectively, “ Applicable Law ”); or (ii) any director of the Corporation who is also a director or officer of IPC being ineligible to serve or prohibited from so serving as a director of the Corporation under or pursuant to any Applicable Law.
