such other officers and agents as it may deem necessary or advisable, to hold
office for such period, have such authority and perform such duties as the Board
of Directors may from time to time determine. The Board of Directors
may delegate to any officer or agent the power to appoint any such subordinate
officers or agents and to prescribe their respective terms of office,
authorities and duties, except as such power may be otherwise defined or
restricted by the Board of Directors.
4.10 Compensation. The
compensation of the officers of the Corporation, including, without limitation,
salary, equity incentives, and bonuses, shall be fixed from time to time by the
Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, pursuant to budgets
setting forth such salaries. No officer shall be prevented from
receiving such salary by reason of the fact that such person is also a director
of the Corporation.

ARTICLE
VI.
INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 Indemnification.
(a) The
Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of Section
145 of the DGCL, indemnify each person who is or was a director, officer,
manager or employee of the Corporation, or of any other corporation,
partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise
which he is serving or served in any capacity at the request of the Corporation,
from and against any and all, liability and reasonable expense, as and when
incurred, that may be incurred by him in connection with or resulting from any
claim, actions, suit or proceeding (whether actual or threatened, brought by or
in the right of the Corporation or such other corporation, partnership, joint
venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise, or otherwise,
civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, or in connection with an appeal
relating thereto), in which he may become involved, as a party or otherwise, by
reason of his being or having been a director, officer, manager or employee of
the Corporation or of such other corporation, partnership, joint venture,
limited liability company, trust or other enterprise or by reason of any past or
future action taken or not taken in his capacity as such director, officer,
manager or employee, whether or not he continues to be such at the time such
liability or expense is incurred, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as
the same now exists or may hereafter be amended (but in the case of any such
amendment only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to
provide broader indemnification rights than the DGCL permitted the Corporation
to provide prior to such amendment).
(b) Any
indemnification pursuant to this Article VI shall be (unless ordered by a court)
paid by the Corporation within sixty (60) days of such request, unless the
Corporation shall have determined by (a) the Board of Directors, acting by a
quorum consisting of directors who are not parties to or who have been wholly
successful with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding, (b) outside
legal counsel engaged by the Corporation (who may be regular counsel of the
Corporation) and who delivers to the Corporation its written opinion, or (c) a
court of competent jurisdiction, that indemnification is not proper under the
circumstances because such person has not met the necessary standard of conduct
in accordance with DGCL; provided, however, that
following a Change in Control of the Corporation, with respect to all matters
thereafter arising out of acts, omissions or events prior to the Change in
Control of the Corporation concerning the rights of any person seeking
indemnification hereunder, such determination shall be made by special
independent counsel selected by such person and approved by the Corporation
(which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), which counsel has not
otherwise performed services (other than in connection with similar matters)
within the five years preceding its engagement to render such opinion for such
person or for the Corporation or any affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule
405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the Corporation (whether or
not they were affiliates when services were so performed) (“Independent
Counsel”). Unless such person has theretofore selected Independent Counsel
pursuant to this Article VI, Section 6.1 and such Independent Counsel has been
approved by the Corporation, legal counsel approved by a resolution or
resolutions of the Board of Directors prior to a Change in Control of the
Corporation shall be deemed to have been approved by the Corporation as
required. Such Independent Counsel shall determine as promptly as practicable
whether and to what extent such person would be permitted to be indemnified
under applicable law and shall render its written opinion to the Corporation and
such person to such effect; provided that such independent counsel shall find
that the standard for indemnification has been met by such person unless
indemnification is clearly precluded under these bylaws or the DGCL. The
Corporation agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Counsel
referred to above and to fully indemnify such Independent Counsel against any
and all expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to
this Article VI or its engagement pursuant hereto.
10
(c) For
purposes of this Article VI, a “Change in Control of the Corporation” shall be
deemed to have occurred upon the first to occur of the following
events:
(i) any
“person,” as such term is used in Sections 13 (d) and 14(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (other than the
Corporation, any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee
benefit plan of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation, or any
corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the
Corporation in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of
the Corporation), is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3
under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Corporation representing 30 percent or more of the combined voting power of the
Corporation’s then outstanding securities;
(ii) at
any time during any period of two consecutive years, individuals, who at the
beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors, and any new director
(other than a director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement
with the Corporation to effect a transaction described in subsection (i), (iii)
or (iv) of this Section 6.1(c)) whose election by the Board of Directors or
nomination for election by the Corporation’s stockholders was approved by a vote
of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors at the beginning of the period or
whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved cease for
any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof;
(iii) the
stockholders of the Corporation approve a merger or consolidation of the
Corporation with any other corporation, other than (1) a merger or consolidation
which would result in the voting securities of the Corporation outstanding
immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining
outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving
entity) more than 50 percent of the combined voting power of the voting
securities of the Corporation or such surviving entity outstanding immediately
after such merger or consolidation or (2) a merger or consolidation effected to
implement a recapitalization of the Corporation (or similar transaction) in
which no person acquires 50 percent or more of the combined voting power of the
Corporation’s then outstanding securities; or
(iv) the
stockholders of the Corporation approve a plan of complete liquidation of the
Corporation or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Corporation of
all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets.
11
6.2 Expenses. Expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by a person referred to in
Section 6.1 of this Article VI in defending, investigating or otherwise being
involved in a proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the
final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon
receipt of an undertaking (the “Undertaking”) by or on behalf of such person to
repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not
entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation.
6.3 Right of Claimant to Bring
Suit. If a claim for indemnification is not paid in full by
the Corporation within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received
by the Corporation or if expenses pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof have not been
advanced within ten (10) days after a written request for such advancement
accompanied by the Undertaking has been received by the Corporation, the
claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to
recover the unpaid amount of the claim or the advancement of expenses. (If the
claimant is successful, in whole or in part, in such suit or any other suit to
enforce a right for expenses or indemnification against the Corporation or any
other party under any other agreement, such claimant shall also be entitled to
be paid the reasonable expense of prosecuting such claim.) It shall
be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim
for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition where the required Undertaking has been tendered to the Corporation)
that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible
under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount
claimed. After a Change in Control, the burden of proving such defense shall be
on the Corporation, and any determination by the Corporation (including its
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the
claimant had not met the applicable standard of conduct required under the DGCL
shall not be a defense to the action nor create a presumption that claimant had
not met such applicable standard of conduct.
6.4 Non-Exclusivity of
Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this article
shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or
hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of
Incorporation, these bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise. The Board of Directors shall have the authority, by
resolution, to provide for such other indemnification of directors, officers,
employees or agents as it shall deem appropriate.
6.5 Insurance. The
Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance to protect itself and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise
against any expenses, liabilities or losses, whether or not the Corporation
would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses, liabilities
or losses under the DGCL.
6.6 Enforceability. The
provisions of this Article VI shall be applicable to all proceedings commenced
after its adoption, whether such arise out of events, acts, omissions or
circumstances which occurred or existed prior or subsequent to such adoption,
and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and
shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such
person. This Article VI shall be deemed to grant each person who, at
any time that this Article VI is in effect, serves or agrees to serve in any
capacity which entitles him to indemnification hereunder rights against the
Corporation to enforce the provisions of this Article VI, and any repeal or
other modification of this Article VI or any repeal or modification of the DGCL
or any other applicable law shall not limit any rights of indemnification then
existing or arising out of events, acts, omissions, circumstances occurring or
existing prior to such repeal or modification, including, without limitation,
the right to indemnification for proceedings commenced after such repeal or
modification to enforce this article with regard to acts, omissions, events or
circumstances occurring or existing prior to such repeal or
modification.
12
6.7 Severability. If
this Article VI or any portion hereof shall invalidated on any ground by any
court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless
indemnify each director and officer of the Corporation as to costs, charges and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement with respect to any proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the right of the
Corporation, to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this
Article VI that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent permitted
by applicable law.
6.8 Other
Indemnification. The Corporation's obligation, if any, to
indemnify any person who was or is serving at its request as a director,
officer, manager or employee of any other corporation, partnership,
joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise shall be
reduced by any amount such person may collect from such other corporation,
partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise
by way of indemnification or insurance.

AMENDMENTS
7.1 By
Shareholders. These bylaws may be amended at any meeting of
shareholders by vote of the shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding
stock entitled to vote, present either in person or by proxy, provided notice of
the amendment is included in the notice or waiver of notice of such
meeting.
7.2 By
Directors. The Board of Directors may from time to time by the
vote of a majority of the directors then in office make, adopt, amend,
supplement or repeal bylaws (including bylaws adopted by the shareholders of the
Corporation), but the shareholders of the Corporation may from time to time
specify provisions of the bylaws that may not be amended or repealed by the
Board of Directors.
ARTICLE
VIII.
MISCELLANEOUS
8.1 Waiver of Notice of Meetings
of Stockholders, Directors and Committees. Any written waiver
of notice, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the
time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance
of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting,
except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting,
at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the
meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to
be transacted at nor the purpose of any meeting of the stockholders, directors,
or members of a committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver
of notice.
13
8.2 Interested Directors;
Quorum. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and
one (1) or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any
other Entity in which one (1) or more of its directors or officers, are
directors or officers, or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable
solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at
or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof
which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his, her or
their votes are counted for such purpose, if: (i) the material facts
as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction
are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the
Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or
transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested
directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; or
(ii) the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the
contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled
to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in
good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is
fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or
ratified, by the Board of Directors, a committee thereof, or the
stockholders. Common or interested directors 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 or transaction.
8.3 Fixing Date for
Determination of Stockholders of Record. In order that the
Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled (i) to notice of or to vote
at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, (ii) to express
consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, (iii) to receive
payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, (iv)
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
fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the
resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors and which
record date: (i) in the case of determination of stockholders
entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders or adjournment thereof, shall,
unless otherwise required by law, not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days
before the date of such meeting; (ii) in the case of determination of
stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without
a meeting, shall not be more than 10 days from the date upon which the
resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors; and
(iii) in the case of any other action, shall not be more than 60 days prior to
such other action. If no record date is fixed: (i) 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; (ii) the record date for determining stockholders entitled to express
consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting when no prior action of
the Board of Directors is required by law, shall be the first date on which a
signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is
delivered to the Corporation in accordance with applicable law, or, if prior
action by the Board of Directors is required by law, shall be at the close of
business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking
such prior action; and (iii) the record date for determining stockholders for
any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the
Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto. A determination of
stockholders of record entitled to notice of 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.
14
8.4 List of Stockholders
Entitled to Vote.
(a) The
Secretary shall prepare and make, at least 10 days before every meeting of
stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the
meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each
stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each
stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any
stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business
hours, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, either at the
offices of the Corporation or a place within the city where the meeting is to be
held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, if not so
specified, at offices of the Corporation. The list shall also be
produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time
thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.
(b) The
stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled
to examine the stock ledger, the list of stockholders or the books of the
Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of
stockholders.
