Exhibit 3.1

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED

Upon this Third Amended and Restated Certificate becoming effective pursuant to the DGCL (the “Effective Time”), (i) each four shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation in treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time will be combined and reclassified into one issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock and (ii) each four shares of Class C Common Stock issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation in treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time will be combined and reclassified into one issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Class C Common Stock, in each case, without any action required on the part of the Corporation or the holders of such Common Stock, subject to the treatment of fractional share interests as described below (the “Reverse Stock Split”). No fractional shares of Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. In lieu of fractional shares of Class C Common Stock, the Corporation will pay to such holders of record of Class C Common Stock, upon the surrender of the stockholders’ stock certificates, if any, an amount in cash equal to the fair value of such fractional share of Class C Common Stock as determined by the Board. In lieu of fractional shares of Class A Common Stock, the aggregate of all fractional shares of Class A Common Stock otherwise issuable to the holders of record of Class A Common Stock shall be issued to the transfer agent for the Class A Common Stock, as exchange agent, for the accounts of all holders of record of Class A Common Stock otherwise entitled to have a fraction of a share of Class A Common Stock issued to them. The sale of all fractional interests of Class A Common Stock will be effected by the exchange agent as soon as practicable after the Effective Time on the basis of prevailing market prices of the Class A Common Stock at the time of sale. After such sale and upon the surrender of the stockholders’ stock certificates, if any, the exchange agent will pay to such holders of record of Class A Common Stock their pro rata share of the net proceeds (after customary brokerage commissions and other expenses) derived from the sale of the fractional interests. After the Reverse Stock Split, no holder of Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock will have any further interest in the Corporation with respect to its fractional share interest and persons otherwise entitled to a fractional share will not have any voting, dividend or other rights with respect thereto except, for the holders of record of Class C Common Stock and Class A Common Stock, the right to receive a cash payment as described above. From and after the Effective Time, stock certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, if any, shall thereafter be deemed to represent the number of whole shares of Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock into which such Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock shall have been reclassified at the Effective Time.

Section 4.2 Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) is hereby expressly authorized to provide out of the unissued shares of the Preferred Stock for one or more series of Preferred Stock and to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series and to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special and other rights, if any, of each such series and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, or such series, including, without limitation, that any such series may be (i) subject to redemption at such time or times and at such price or prices, (ii) entitled to receive dividends (which may be cumulative or non-cumulative) at such rates, on such conditions, and at such times, and payable in preference to, or in such relation to, the dividends payable on any other class or classes or series of capital stock, (iii) entitled to such rights upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of, or upon any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation or (iv) convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes of capital stock, or of any other series of the same class of capital stock, of the Corporation at such price or prices or at such rates and with such adjustments, as shall be stated in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board providing for the issuance of such series and included in a certificate of designation (a “Preferred Stock Designation”) filed pursuant to the DGCL, and the Board is hereby expressly vested with the authority to the full extent provided by law, now or hereafter, to adopt any such resolution or resolutions.

Section 4.3 Common Stock.

(a) Voting Generally.

(i) Except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), the holders of the Common Stock shall exclusively possess all voting power with respect to the Corporation.

(ii) Except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each such share on each matter properly submitted to the stockholders on which the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to vote.

(iii) Except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, holders of the Class A Common Stock and holders of the Class C Common Stock voting together as a single class, shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), holders of shares of any series of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any amendment to any Preferred Stock Designation) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock or other series of Common Stock if the holders of such affected series of Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation) or the DGCL.

(b) Class A Common Stock.

(i) Certain Amendments. Except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), for so long as any shares of Class A Common Stock shall remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the prior vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the shares of A Common Stock then outstanding, voting separately as a single class, amend, alter or repeal any provision of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, if such amendment, alteration or repeal would alter or change, in a manner adverse to the holders of the Class A Common Stock, the powers, preferences or rights of the Class A Common Stock, relative to the powers, preferences or rights of any other class of Common Stock, as such relative powers, preferences or rights exist as of the date of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate.

(ii) Dividends. Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of the Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions (payable in cash, property or capital stock of the Corporation) when, as and if declared thereon by the Board from time to time out of any assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor and shall share equally on a per share basis in such dividends and distributions; provided that, in the event of any dividend or other distribution received by the Corporation from the Partnership in respect of the Common Units or other equity interests of the Partnership held by the Corporation, including upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership (any such dividend or distribution, a “Partnership Distribution”), the Board shall declare in connection with such Partnership Distribution a dividend or other distribution on the shares of Class A Common Stock in an amount equal to 100% of such Partnership Distribution, net of reserves for taxes payable by the Corporation as reasonably determined by the Board (a “Pass-Through Distribution”), and the holders of Class A Common Stock shall share equally on a per share basis in such Pass-Through Distribution. The Board shall fix the record date for any Pass-Through Distribution to be the same date as the record date for the corresponding Partnership Distribution fixed by the general partner of the Partnership or, if necessary to comply with applicable law, such later date that is as soon as practicable after the record date for the Partnership Distribution fixed by the general partner of the Partnership. To the extent that a Partnership Distribution is paid in a form other than cash, the Corporation shall sell a portion of such Partnership Distribution sufficient to reserve for taxes payable by the Corporation as reasonably determined by the Board, and the balance of such Partnership Distribution shall be a Pass-Through Distribution.

(iii) Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up of the Corporation. Subject to applicable law and the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of the Preferred Stock, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive all the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock held by them.

(c) Class C Common Stock.

(i) Certain Amendments. Except as otherwise required by law or this Third Amended and Restated Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), for so long as any shares of Class C Common Stock shall remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the prior vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class C Common Stock then outstanding, voting separately as a single class, amend, alter or repeal any provision of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, if such amendment, alteration or repeal would alter or change, in a manner adverse to the holders of the Class C Common Stock, the powers, preferences or rights of the Class C Common Stock, relative to the powers, preferences or rights of any other class of Common Stock, as such relative powers, preferences or rights exist as of the date of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate.

(ii) Dividends. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, dividends shall not be declared or paid on the Class C Common Stock.

(iii) Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up of the Corporation. The holders of Class C Common Stock shall not be entitled to receive any assets of the Corporation in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

(iv) Sale Transaction Consideration; Redemption Consideration. In no event shall the Corporation enter into, or enter into any agreement to enter into, (i) a merger, consolidation or other business combination requiring the approval of the holders of the Corporation’s stock entitled to vote thereon (whether or not the Corporation is the surviving entity), (ii) an acquisition of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets or (iii) any tender or exchange offer by the Corporation or any third party to acquire any shares of stock of the Corporation (any such transaction described in (i), (ii) or (iii), in each case whether by way of a single transaction or a series of related transactions, a “Sale Transaction”), in which it is proposed that (1) each share of Class C Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive, directly or indirectly in connection with such Sale Transaction, any consideration for such share of Class C Common Stock or (2) each share of Class C Common Stock, together with one Common Unit, shall be converted into the right to receive, directly or indirectly in connection with such Sale Transaction, a different amount of consideration on a per share basis as that received by each share of Class A Common Stock in connection with such Sale Transaction. In no event shall the Corporation repurchase, redeem or repurchase, or offer to redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire, any shares of Class C Common stock for any consideration.

(v) Transfer of Class C Common Stock.

(1) A holder of Class C Common Stock may surrender shares of Class C Common Stock to the Corporation for no consideration at any time. Following the surrender of any shares of Class C Common Stock to the Corporation, the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(2) A holder of Class C Common Stock may transfer shares of Class C Common Stock to any transferee (other than the Corporation) only if, and only to the extent permitted by the Partnership Agreement, such holder also simultaneously transfers an equal number of such holder’s Common Units to such transferee. The transfer restrictions described in this Section 4.3(d)(v)(2) are referred to as the “Restrictions”.

(3) Any purported transfer of shares of Class C Common Stock in violation of the Restrictions shall be null and void. If, notwithstanding the Restrictions, a person shall, voluntarily or involuntarily, purportedly become or attempt to become, the purported owner (“Purported Owner”) of shares of Class C Common Stock in violation of the Restrictions, then the Purported Owner shall not obtain any rights in and to such shares of Class C Common Stock (the “Restricted Shares”), and the purported transfer of the Restricted Shares to the Purported Owner shall not be recognized by the Corporation’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”).

(4) Upon a determination by the disinterested directors (acting by a majority vote of the disinterested directors serving on the Board at such time, or by a committee composed of two or more disinterested directors) that a person has attempted or may attempt to transfer or to acquire Restricted Shares in violation of the Restrictions, such committee may, on behalf of the Board, take such action and direct the Corporation to take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to such transfer or acquisition on the books and records of the Corporation, including without limitation, to cause the Transfer Agent to record the Purported Owner’s transferor as the record owner of the Restricted Shares and to institute proceedings to enjoin or rescind any such transfer or acquisition.

(5) The disinterested directors (acting by a majority vote of the disinterested directors serving on the Board at such time, or by a committee composed of two or more disinterested directors) may, to the extent permitted by law, on behalf of the Board, from time to time establish, modify, amend or rescind, by bylaw or otherwise, regulations and procedures that are consistent with the provisions of this Section 4.3(d)(v) for determining whether any transfer or acquisition of shares of Class C Common Stock would violate the Restrictions and for the orderly application, administration and implementation of the provisions of this Section 4.3(d). Any such procedures and regulations shall be kept on file with the Secretary of the Corporation and with the Transfer Agent and shall be made available for inspection by any prospective transferee and, upon written request, shall be mailed to holders of shares of Class C Common Stock.

(6) The disinterested directors (acting by a majority vote of the disinterested directors serving on the Board at such time, or by a committee composed of two or more disinterested directors), shall have, on behalf of the Board all powers necessary to implement the Restrictions, including without limitation, the power to prohibit the transfer of any shares of Class C Common Stock in violation thereof.

(vi) Issuance of Class A Common Stock Upon Redemption; Cancellation of Class C Common Stock.

(1) To the extent that any holder of Class C Common Stock exercises its right pursuant to the Partnership Agreement to have its Common Units redeemed by the Partnership in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, then simultaneous with the payment of the consideration due under the Partnership Agreement to such holder of Class C Common Stock, the Corporation shall cancel for no consideration a number of shares of Class C Common Stock registered in the name of the redeeming or exchanging holder of Class C Common Stock equal to the number of Common Units held by such holder of Class C Common Stock that are redeemed or exchanged in such redemption or exchange transaction. The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon redemption of the Common Units for Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that shall be issuable upon any such redemption pursuant to the Partnership Agreement. All shares of Class A Common Stock that shall be issued upon any such redemption will, upon issuance in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(2) Notwithstanding the Restrictions, (A) in the event that an outstanding share of Class C Common Stock shall cease to be held by a registered holder of Common Units, such share of Class C Common Stock shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or any holder of Class C Common Stock be cancelled for no consideration, and the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such share and such share shall not be re-issued by the Corporation and (B) in the event that one or more of the Common Units held by a registered holder of Class C Common Stock ceases to be held by such holder (other than as a result of a transfer of one or more Common Units together with an equal number of shares of Class C Common Stock as permitted by the Partnership Agreement), a corresponding number of shares of Class C Common Stock registered in the name of such holder shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or such holder be cancelled for no consideration, and the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares and such shares shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(vii) Restrictive Legend. All certificates or book entries representing shares of Class C Common Stock, as the case may be, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form (or in such other form as the Board may determine):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS BOOK ENTRY ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS (INCLUDING RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER) SET FORTH IN THE THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION (A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION AND SHALL BE PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE TO ANY STOCKHOLDER MAKING A REQUEST THEREFOR).

(d) Conversion Rights. Except as set forth in this Third Amended and Restated Certificate, the Common Stock shall not be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes or of any other series of the same class of the Corporation’s capital stock.

(e) Preemptive Rights. No holder of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to preemptive or subscription rights pursuant to this Third Amended and Restated Certificate.

(f) Stock Split or Reverse Stock Split. In no event shall the shares of either Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock be split, divided, or combined (including by way of stock dividend) unless the outstanding shares of the other class shall be proportionately split, divided or combined.

(g) Authorization and Issuance of Additional Shares; Repurchases or Redemptions.

(i) If at any time the Corporation issues a share of Class A Common Stock or any other Equity Security of the Corporation (other than Class C Common Stock), (1) the Corporation shall cause the Partnership shall issue to the Corporation one Common Unit (if the Corporation issues a share of Class A Common Stock), or such other Equity Security of the Partnership (if the Corporation issues Equity Securities other than Class A Common Stock) corresponding to such Equity Securities issued by the Corporation, and with substantially the same rights to dividends and distributions (including distributions upon liquidation) and other economic rights as those of such Equity Securities of the Corporation and (2) the net proceeds received by the Corporation with respect to issuance of the corresponding share of Class A Common Stock or other Equity Security, if any, shall be concurrently contributed by the Corporation to the Partnership as a capital contribution; provided, however, that if the Corporation issues any shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for a number of Common Units redeemed by a limited partner of the Partnership (other than the Corporation), and a corresponding number of shares of Class C Common Stock, pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, then the Partnership shall not issue any new Common Units in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.3(h)(i) shall not apply to (A) (x) the issuance and distribution to holders of shares of Class A Common Stock of rights to purchase Equity Securities of the Corporation under a “poison pill” or similar shareholders rights plan or (y) the issuance under the Corporation’s equity plans or stock option plans of any warrants, options, other rights to acquire Equity Securities of the Corporation or rights or property that may be converted into or settled in Equity Securities of the Corporation, but shall in each of the foregoing cases apply to the issuance of Equity Securities of the Corporation in connection with the exercise or settlement of such rights, warrants, options or other rights or property or (B) the issuance of Equity Securities pursuant to any equity plan of the Corporation (other than a stock option plan) that are restricted, subject to forfeiture or otherwise unvested upon issuance, but shall apply on the applicable vesting date with respect to such Equity Securities.

(ii) The Corporation shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the outstanding Common Stock unless accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination, as applicable, of the outstanding Common Units, with corresponding changes made with respect to any other exchangeable or convertible securities. The Corporation shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of any outstanding Equity Securities of the Corporation (other than the Common Stock) unless accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination, as applicable, of the corresponding Equity Securities of the Partnership, with corresponding changes made with respect to any other exchangeable or convertible securities.

(iii) The Corporation or any of its subsidiaries may not redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (1) any shares of Class A Common Stock unless substantially simultaneously the Partnership redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires from the Corporation an equal number of Common Units for the same form and amount of consideration per security or (2) any other Equity Securities of the Corporation (other than Class C Common Stock) unless substantially simultaneously the Partnership redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires from the Corporation an equal number of Equity Securities of the Partnership of a corresponding class or series with substantially the same rights to dividends and distributions (including distributions upon liquidation) and other economic rights as those of such Equity Securities of the Corporation for the same form and amount of consideration per security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any consideration payable by the Corporation in connection with the redemption or repurchase of any shares of Class A Common Stock or other Equity Securities of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries consists (in whole or in part) of shares of Class A Common Stock or such other Equity Securities (including in connection with the cashless exercise of an option or warrant), then the redemption or repurchase of the corresponding Common Units or other Equity Securities of the Partnership shall be effectuated in an equivalent manner.

(h) Certain Terms. As used in this Third Amended and Restated Certificate, (i) “Partnership” shall mean Falcon Minerals Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, or any successor entity thereto, (ii) “Partnership Agreement” shall mean the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, dated as of August 23, 2018, as such agreement may be further amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, (iii) “Common Unit” shall a common unit representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership authorized and issued under the Partnership Agreement and constituting a “Common Unit” as defined in the Partnership Agreement as in effect as of effective time of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate, and (iv) “Equity Securities” shall mean (1) with respect to the Corporation, any and all shares, interests, participation or other equivalents (however designated) of capital stock, including all Common Stock and Preferred Stock, or warrants, options or other rights to acquire any of the foregoing, including any debt instrument convertible or exchangeable into any of the foregoing and (2) with respect to the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries, (A) Common Units or other equity interests in the Partnership or any subsidiary of the Partnership, (B) obligations, evidences of indebtedness or other securities or interests convertible or exchangeable into Common Units or other equity interests in the Partnership or any subsidiary of the Partnership, and (C) warrants, options or other rights to purchase or otherwise acquire Common Units or other equity interests in the Partnership or any subsidiary of the Partnership.

Section 4.4 Rights and Options. The Corporation has the authority to create and issue rights, warrants and options entitling the holders thereof to acquire from the Corporation any shares of its capital stock of any class or classes, with such rights, warrants and options to be evidenced by or in instrument(s) approved by the Board.

LIMITED LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Limitation of Director Liability. A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or 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 unless they violated their duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, acted in bad faith, knowingly or intentionally violated the law, authorized unlawful payments of dividends, unlawful stock purchases or unlawful redemptions, or derived improper personal benefit from their actions as directors. Any amendment, modification or repeal of the foregoing sentence shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, modification or repeal.

Section 8.2 Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who is or was made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “proceeding”) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an “indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred by such indemnitee in connection with such proceeding. The Corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an indemnitee in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of the indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 8.2 or otherwise. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred by this Section 8.2 shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2(a), except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses, the Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses to an indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

(b) The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred on any indemnitee by this Section 8.2 shall not be exclusive of any other rights that any indemnitee may have or hereafter acquire under law, this Third Amended and Restated Certificate, the Bylaws, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

(c) Any repeal or amendment of this Section 8.2 by the stockholders of the Corporation or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provision of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate inconsistent with this Section 8.2, shall, unless otherwise required by law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto), and shall not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision in respect of any proceeding (regardless of when such proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) arising out of, or related to, any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

(d) This Section 8.2 shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than indemnitees.

ARTICLE IX

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITY
