THIRD.                                                    The nature of the business of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).

FOURTH.                                         The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively, “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.”  The total number of shares which the Corporation is authorized to issue is One Hundred Million One Hundred Thousand (100,100,000) shares. One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares shall be Common Stock, $0.001 par value, and One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares shall be Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value.

A.                                    Preferred Stock.

1.                                Rights, Preferences and Restrictions.  The Preferred Stock authorized by this Certificate of Incorporation may be issued from time to time in one or more series.  The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to and imposed on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Corporation, which series shall consist of One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), are set forth below in this Article FOURTH(A).  Subject to the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time be outstanding, the remaining shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series.  Subject to the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time be outstanding, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to provide for the issue of all or any of the remaining shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issue of such shares (a “Preferred Stock Designation”) and as may be permitted by the DGCL.  Subject to the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time be outstanding, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of any series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series, other than the Series A Preferred Stock, subsequent to the issue of shares of that series.  In case the number of shares of any series shall be so decreased, the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series.

2.                                Dividend Provisions

(a)                                 The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends, out of any assets legally available therefor, prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend on the Common Stock, at the rate of twenty percent (20%) per share per annum in respect of the Liquidation Preference (as hereinafter defined) payable when declared by the Board of Directors.  Such dividends shall accrue on each share from the date of the original issuance of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and shall accrue on a daily basis, whether or not declared.  Such dividends shall be cumulative so that, if such dividends in respect of any previous or current annual dividend period, at the annual rate specified above, shall not have been paid, the deficiency shall first be fully paid before any dividend or other distribution shall be paid on or declared and set apart for the Common Stock.

2

(b)                                 So long as any Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding, neither the Corporation nor any subsidiary of the Corporation shall redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire directly or indirectly any equity securities of the Corporation or any subsidiary other than the Series A Preferred Stock (“Junior Securities”), nor shall the Corporation directly or indirectly pay or declare any dividend or make any distribution upon any Junior Securities; provided, that the Corporation may (A) purchase shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock from present or former employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of any agreement approved by the Board of Directors; and (B) purchase or redeem any warrant and/or shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any warrant or similar agreement of the Corporation approved by the Board of Directors.

3.                                Liquidation Preference

(a)                                 In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Corporation to the holders of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share (“Liquidation Preference”) equal to the sum of (i) $1,000.00 for each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Original Series A Issue Price”) and (ii) all accrued but unpaid dividends on such share.  If upon the occurrence of such event, the assets and funds thus distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then subject to the rights, if any, of any series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time come into existence, the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in proportion to the amount of such stock owned by each such holder.

(b)                                 After the distributions described in paragraph (a) above have been paid, subject to the rights, if any, of any series of Preferred Stock which may from time to time come into existence, the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each such holder.

(c)                                  For purposes of this Section 3, a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation shall be deemed to be occasioned by, and to include, each of (i) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, and (ii) the merger, consolidation, amalgamation of the Corporation with or into one or more other persons or entities, or the consummation of any other transaction or series of related transactions, in each case of a transaction identified under this clause (ii) as a result of which the Corporation’s stockholders of record as constituted immediately prior to such transaction will, immediately after such transaction (or series of related transactions) hold less than fifty percent (50%) of either the voting power or the equity interests of each class and series of the surviving or acquiring entities in such transaction or series of related transactions.

3

(d)                                 Upon the occurrence of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, if the consideration received by the Corporation is other than cash, its value will be deemed its fair market value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

(e)                                  The Corporation shall give each holder of record of Series A Preferred Stock written notice of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation not later than twenty (20) days prior to the stockholders’ meeting called to approve such transaction, or twenty (20) days prior to the closing of such transaction, whichever is earlier, and shall also notify such holder in writing of the final approval of such transaction. The first of such notices shall describe the material terms and conditions of the impending transaction and the provisions of this Section 3, and the Corporation shall thereafter give such holders prompt written notice of any material changes.  The transaction shall in no event take place sooner than twenty (20) days after the Corporation has given the first notice provided for herein or sooner than ten (10) days after the Corporation has given notice of any material changes provided for herein.  The time periods referred to in this paragraph (e) may be shortened upon the written consent of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock that represent at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

4.                                Voting Rights.  Except as otherwise provided herein and as otherwise required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights; provided, that each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all stockholders’ meetings at the same time and in the same manner as notice is given to the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting.

5.                                Notices.  Any notice required by the provisions of this Article FOURTH to be given to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be given by the Corporation in writing by reputable overnight courier service (e.g., Federal Express) for next business day delivery, delivery fee to be paid by the Corporation, addressed to each holder of record at the address appearing on the books of the Corporation, and such notice shall be deemed given when delivered to such address by such courier service.

B.                                    Common Stock.

1.                                Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided by the DGCL or this Certificate of Incorporation and subject to the rights of holders of any series of Preferred Stock, all of the voting power of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be vested in the holders of the Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote for each share held by such holder on all matters voted upon by the stockholders of the Corporation; provided, however, that, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of Preferred Stock).

4

2.                                Rights and Ranking. Except as (a) otherwise required by law or (b) expressly provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, each share of Common Stock shall have the same powers, rights and privileges and shall rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all respects as to all matters.

3.                                Dividend Rights. Subject to the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock and to the other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive equally, on a per share basis, such dividends and other distributions in cash, securities or other property of the Corporation as may be declared thereon by the Board of Directors from time to time out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor.

4.                                Liquidation Rights. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment or provision for payment of the Corporation’s debts and amounts payable upon shares of Preferred Stock entitled to a preference, if any, over holders of Common Stock upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding up, the remaining net assets of the Corporation shall be distributed among holders of shares of Common Stock equally on a per share basis. A merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of all or any part of the assets of the Corporation (which shall not in fact result in the liquidation of the Corporation and the distribution of assets to its stockholders) shall not be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation or dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this Paragraph 4.

5.                                No Conversion Rights. 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.

6.                                No Preemptive Rights. No holder of Common Stock shall have any preemptive rights with respect to the Common Stock or any other securities of the Corporation, or to any obligations convertible (directly or indirectly) into securities of the Corporation whether now or hereafter authorized.

FIFTH.                                                        The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. In addition to the powers and authority expressly conferred upon them by statute or by this Certificate of Incorporation or the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Corporation (as amended, the “Bylaws”), the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation.

A.                                    Number of Directors.  Subject to any rights of the holders of any class or series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors which shall constitute the Board of Directors shall be fixed exclusively from time to time by resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office.

B.                                    Election and Term of Office.  A nominee for director shall be elected to the Board of Directors if a majority of the votes cast are in favor of such nominee’s election; provided, however, that, if the number of nominees for director exceeds the number of directors to be

5

elected, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares represented in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders held to elect directors and entitled to vote on such election of directors. Each director shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and a successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Nothing in this Certificate of Incorporation shall preclude a director from serving consecutive terms. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation shall so provide.

C.                                    Newly-Created Directorships and Vacancies.  Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and except as otherwise set forth in the terms of that certain Director Nomination Agreement, dated as of              , 2015 (as amended or supplemented in accordance with its terms), by and between the Corporation and the investors named therein, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors or any vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal from office or any other cause may be filled only by the Board of Directors (and not by stockholders), provided that a quorum is then in office and present, or by a majority of the directors then in office, if less than a quorum is then in office, or by the sole remaining director. A director elected to fill a vacancy shall be elected for the unexpired term of his or her predecessor in office and until his or her successor is elected and qualified. A director chosen to fill a position resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the authorized number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

D.                                    Removal of Directors.  Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and notwithstanding any other provision of this Certificate of Incorporation, (i) prior to the first date (the “Trigger Date”) on which Tricor Pacific Capital Partners (Fund IV), Limited Partnership, Tricor Pacific Capital Partners (Fund IV) US, Limited Partnership and their respective affiliates collectively cease to beneficially own (directly or indirectly) at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (“Voting Stock”), directors may be removed with or without cause upon the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock, voting together as a single class and (ii) on and after the Trigger Date, directors may only be removed for cause and only upon the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least 75% of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock, at a meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders called for that purpose. Any director may resign at any time upon written notice to the Corporation.

E.                                     Rights of Holders of Preferred Stock.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article FIFTH, whenever the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately or together by series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorship shall be governed by the rights of such Preferred Stock as set forth in the certificate of designation governing such series.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation shall provide indemnification of (and advance of expenses to) the directors and officers of the Corporation and is authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) employees and agents of the Corporation (and any other persons to which the DGCL permits the Corporation to provide indemnification).  In addition, the Corporation is authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) all of the foregoing persons, through Bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, subject only to limits created by applicable provisions of law (statutory or non-statutory), with respect to actions for breach of duty to the Corporation, its stockholders, and others.

Any amendment, repeal or modification of this Article SIXTH, or the adoption of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article SIXTH, by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not apply to or adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal, modification or adoption.

SEVENTH.

From and after the Trigger Date, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Corporation’s stockholders may be effected only at a duly called annual or special meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders and the power of stockholders to consent in writing without a meeting is specifically denied. Prior to the Trigger Date, any action which is required or permitted to be taken by the Corporation’s stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of

7

votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of the Corporation’s stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

B.                                    Special Meetings of Stockholders.  Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and to the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may be called only (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors pursuant to a written resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of the majority of the total number of directors that the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies or (ii) prior to the Trigger Date, by the Secretary of the Corporation at the request of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock. Any business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of the meeting.

8

being offered an opportunity to participate in, business opportunities that are from time to time presented to the Tricor Investors, their Affiliated Companies or any of their respective Exempted Persons, even if the opportunity is one that the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so, and each Exempted Person shall have no duty to communicate or offer such business opportunity to the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be liable to the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies for breach of any fiduciary or other duty, as a director, officer or stockholder of the Corporation solely, by reason of the fact that the Tricor Investors, their Affiliated Companies or any such Exempted Person pursues or acquires such business opportunity, sells, assigns, transfers or directs such business opportunity to another person or fails to present such business opportunity, or information regarding such business opportunity, to the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies.

C.                                    Certain Matters Deemed Not Corporate Opportunities.  In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article EIGHTH, 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 THIRD 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.

D.                                    Amendment of this Article.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock, voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend or repeal, or to adopt any provision inconsistent with, this Article EIGHTH; provided however, that neither the alteration, amendment or repeal of this Article EIGHTH nor the adoption of any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article EIGHTH shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any Exempted Person for or with respect to any activities or opportunities which such Exempted Person becomes aware prior to such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption.

F.                                      Severability.  To the extent that any provision of this Article EIGHTH is found to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Article EIGHTH.

NINTH.                                                    The Corporation expressly elects not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL.

A.                                    Interested Stockholder Transactions.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the Corporation shall not engage in any Business Combination (as defined hereinafter) with any Interested Stockholder (as defined hereinafter) for

2.                                      upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in such stockholder becoming an Interested Stockholder, such stockholder owned at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the Voting Stock of the Corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the Voting Stock outstanding (but not the outstanding Voting Stock owned by such stockholder) those shares owned (i) by Persons (as defined hereinafter) who are directors and also officers of the Corporation and (ii) employee stock plans of the Corporation in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
