AMENDED AND RESTATED
WASHINGTON PRIME GROUP INC.
BYLAWS
(As amended effective August 30, 2016)

Article I.     
SHAREHOLDERS

SECTION 1.01.    ANNUAL MEETING. Washington Prime Group Inc. (the “Corporation”) shall hold an annual meeting of its shareholders to elect directors and transact any other business within its powers, at such place, on such date, and at such time as shall be set by the Board of Directors. Except as the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Articles”), these Bylaws, or statute provides otherwise, any business may be considered at an annual meeting without the purpose of the meeting having been specified in the notice. Failure to hold an annual meeting does not invalidate the Corporation’s existence or affect any otherwise valid corporate acts.

SECTION 1.02.    SPECIAL MEETING. Subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock of the Corporation with respect to such series of preferred stock, special meetings of the shareholders may be called only by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or a majority of the Board of Directors. Business transacted at special meetings shall be confined to the purposes stated in the Corporation’s notice of the meeting or in any supplemental notice delivered by the Corporation in accordance with Section 1.04 of these Bylaws.

SECTION 1.03.    PLACE OF MEETINGS. Meetings of shareholders shall be held at such place in the United States as is set from time to time by the Board of Directors. If no designation is so made, the place of meeting shall be the principal office of the Corporation.

SECTION 1.04.    NOTICE OF MEETINGS; WAIVER OF NOTICE. Not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before each shareholders’ meeting, the Secretary shall give written notice of the meeting to each shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting and each other shareholder entitled to notice of the meeting. The notice shall state the time and place of the meeting and, if the meeting is a special meeting or notice of the purpose is required by statute, the purpose of the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, each person who is entitled to notice waives notice if he or she before or after the meeting signs a waiver of the notice which is delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records, or is present at the meeting in person or by proxy (except as otherwise provided by Section 23-1-29-6 of the Indiana Business Corporation Law). 

SECTION 1.05.    QUORUM; VOTING. Unless any statute or the Articles provide otherwise, at a meeting of shareholders the presence in person or by proxy of shareholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting constitutes a quorum. If a quorum exists as to a matter to be considered at a meeting of shareholders, action on such matter (other than the election of directors as described in Section 2.02 of these Bylaws, which election shall be governed by Section 2.02 of these Bylaws) is approved if the votes properly cast favoring the action exceed the votes properly cast opposing the action, unless the Articles or the Indiana Business Corporation Law require a greater number of affirmative votes.

SECTION 1.06.    ADJOURNMENTS. Whether or not a quorum is present, a meeting of shareholders convened on the date for which it was called may be adjourned from time to time by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or a majority vote of the shareholders present in person or by proxy entitled to vote without notice other than by announcement at the meeting. No notice of the time and place of adjourned meetings need be given except as required by law. If the meeting is adjourned to a date more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date fixed for the original meeting, the Board of Directors shall establish a new record date for the meeting pursuant to Section 6.03 of these Bylaws. Any business which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified may be deferred and transacted at any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present. The shareholders present at a duly called meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough shareholders to leave less than a quorum.

SECTION 1.07.    GENERAL RIGHT TO VOTE; PROXIES. Unless the Articles provide otherwise, each outstanding share of stock, regardless of class, is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareholders. In all elections for directors, each share of stock entitled to vote may be voted for as many individuals as there are directors to be elected and for whose election the share is entitled to be voted. A shareholder may vote the stock he or she owns of record either in person or by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law. Unless a proxy provides for a shorter or longer period, it is not valid more than eleven (11) months after its date.

SECTION 1.08.    LIST OF SHAREHOLDERS. The Secretary shall prepare before every meeting at which shareholders are entitled to vote, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to notice of such meeting, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the name and address of each shareholder and the number of shares held by each shareholder. Such list shall be available for inspection by any shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting beginning five (5) business days before the date of the meeting and continuing through the date of the meeting at either (a) the Corporation’s principal office or (b) such other place identified in the meeting notice in the city where the meeting will be held, as determined by the Corporation. Subject to Section 23-1-52-2(c) of the Indiana Business Corporation Law, a shareholder, or the shareholder’s agent or attorney authorized in writing, is entitled on written demand to inspect and copy the list, during regular business hours and at the shareholder’s expense, during the period the list is available for inspection. The Corporation shall also make such list available at the meeting, and any shareholder, or the shareholder’s agent or attorney authorized in writing, is entitled to inspect the list at any time during the meeting or any adjournment.

SECTION 1.09.    BUSINESS OF SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS. At each annual or special meeting, the shareholders shall conduct only such business as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. The proposal of business to be considered by the shareholders at an annual meeting may be made only (a) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting pursuant to Section 1.04, (b) by, or at the direction of, the Board of Directors or (c) by any shareholder of the Corporation who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.09 and who is entitled to vote at the meeting. Shareholders may not submit proposals for business to be conducted at a special meeting.

To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be in writing and delivered to or mailed to the Secretary of the Corporation and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than one hundred twenty (120) calendar days in advance of the date of the first anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation; provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date of the previous year’s meeting, to be timely, notice by the shareholder must be received not later than the close of business on the later of one hundred twenty (120) calendar days in advance of such annual meeting or ten (10) calendar days following the date on which public announcement of the date of the meeting is first made. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a shareholder’s notice as described above. In addition, to be considered timely, a shareholder’s notice shall further be updated and supplemented, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice shall be true and correct as of the record date for the meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for the meeting in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date, and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Such shareholder’s notice shall set forth (a) as to any business that the shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting, (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting, (ii) any material interest that such shareholder and any Shareholder Associated Person (as defined below) has in such business, and (iii) if the proposal or business is to be included in the Corporation’s proxy statement, the text of the proposal or business (including the language of any proposed amendment to the Articles or these Bylaws); (b) as to the shareholder giving the notice and each Shareholder Associated Person of such shareholder, (i) the name and address of such shareholder and any Shareholder Associated Person, (ii) the class and number of shares of stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such shareholder and any Shareholder Associated Person as of the date such notice is given, (iii) any derivative positions held or beneficially held by the shareholder and any Shareholder Associated Person and whether and the extent to which any hedging or other transaction or series of transactions has been entered into by or on behalf of, or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding (including any short position or any borrowing or lending of shares of stock) has been made, the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss or to manage risk of stock price changes for, or to increase or decrease the voting power of, such shareholder or any Shareholder Associated Person with respect to the shares of stock of the Corporation, and (iv) a representation that such shareholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such business; and (c) if the shareholder or any Shareholder Associated Person intends, or is part of a group that intends, to solicit proxies in support of such proposal, a representation to that effect.

For purposes of these Bylaws, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14, or 15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). “Shareholder Associated Person” of any shareholder means (x) any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, directly or indirectly, or acting in concert with, such shareholder, (y) any beneficial owner of shares of stock of the Corporation owned of record or beneficially by such shareholder and (z) any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with a Shareholder Associated Person as defined in the foregoing clauses (x) and (y).

Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws, the Articles, or any applicable law to the contrary, the Chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.09 and to declare that any defective proposal be disregarded.

SECTION 1.10.        NOTICE OF SHAREHOLDER NOMINATIONS. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made only (a) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting pursuant to Section 1.04, (b) by, or at the direction of, the Board of Directors, or (c) solely with respect to annual meetings, by any shareholder of the Corporation who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.10 and who is entitled to vote at the meeting. Shareholders may not submit nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors at any special meeting.

To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be in writing and delivered to or mailed to the Secretary of the Corporation and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than one hundred twenty (120) calendar days in advance of the first anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting of shareholders of the Corporation; provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than thirty (30) days from the date of the previous year’s meeting, to be timely, notice by the shareholder must be received not later than the close of business on the later of one hundred twenty (120) calendar days in advance of such annual meeting or ten (10) calendar days following the date on which public announcement of the date of the meeting is first made. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a shareholder’s notice as described above. In addition, to be considered timely, a shareholder’s notice shall further be updated and supplemented, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice shall be true and correct as of the record date for the meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for the meeting in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date, and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

As to each person, if any, whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection to the Board of Directors, a shareholder’s notice must, in addition to the information set forth in the second and third paragraph of this Section 1.10, also set forth: (x) all information relating to such person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected) and (y) a description of all direct and indirect compensation and other material monetary agreements, arrangements and understandings during the past three years, and any other material relationships, between or among such shareholder and Shareholder Associated Person, if any, and their respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, on the one hand, and each proposed nominee, and his or her respective affiliates and associates, or others acting in concert therewith, on the other hand, including, without limitation all information that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Rule 404 promulgated under Regulation S-K if the shareholder making the nomination and any beneficial owner on whose behalf the nomination is made, if any, or any affiliate or associate thereof or person acting in concert therewith, were the “registrant” for purposes of such rule and the nominee were a director or executive officer of such registrant.

To be eligible to be a nominee for election as a director of the Corporation, the person proposed to be nominated must also deliver or mail to the Secretary within ten (10) days of delivery of the notice of nomination contemplated in the preceding paragraph an executed questionnaire (in the form available from the Secretary) with respect to the background and qualification of such person to serve as a director of the Corporation and the background of any other person or entity on whose behalf the nomination is being made and an executed representation and agreement (in the form available from the Secretary) that such person (A) is not and will not become a party to (1) any agreement, arrangement or understanding with, and has not given any commitment or assurance to, any person or entity as to how such person, if elected as a director of the Corporation, will act or vote on any issue or question (a “Voting Commitment”) that has not been disclosed to the Corporation or (2) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such person’s ability to comply, if elected as a director of the Corporation, with such person’s fiduciary duties under applicable law, (B) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity other than the Corporation with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification in connection with service or action as a director that has not been disclosed in the representation and agreement, and (C) if elected as a director of the Corporation, would comply with the Corporation’s requirements for ownership of its shares of stock within ninety (90) days after being elected and will comply with all other applicable publicly disclosed corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality and trading policies and guidelines of the Corporation.

No person nominated by any shareholder shall be qualified to serve as a director unless the nomination is made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.10. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws, the Articles, or any applicable law to the contrary, the Chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a director was nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth herein and to declare that any defective nomination be disregarded.

ARTICLE II.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

SECTION 2.01.    FUNCTION OF DIRECTORS. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed under the direction of its Board of Directors. All powers of the Corporation may be exercised by or under authority of the Board of Directors, except as conferred on or reserved to the shareholders by statute or by the Articles or Bylaws.

SECTION 2.02.    NUMBER AND ELECTION OF DIRECTORS AND TERM OF OFFICE. The number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be fixed from time to time by a duly adopted resolution of the Board of Directors. Subject to the rights of the holders of preferred stock to elect any directors voting separately as a class or series, at each annual meeting of shareholders, the directors to be elected at the meeting shall be chosen by the majority of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election at the meeting, provided a quorum is present; provided, however, that in the event of a “contested election” (as defined below), directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote, provided a quorum is present. For purposes of this Section 2.02, a “majority of votes cast” shall mean that the number of votes cast “for” a director’s election exceeds the number of votes cast “against” that director’s election. Votes cast shall include directions to withhold authority, in each case, and exclude abstentions with respect to that director election. For purposes of this Section 2.02, a “contested election” shall mean any election of directors in which the number of candidates for election as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected, with the determination thereof being made by the Secretary as of the close of the applicable notice of nomination period set forth in Section 1.10 of these Bylaws or under applicable law, based on whether one or more notice(s) of nomination were timely filed in accordance with said Section 1.10; provided, however, that the determination that an election is a “contested election” shall be determinative only as to the timeliness of a notice of nomination and not otherwise as to its validity.  If, prior to the time the Corporation mails its initial proxy statement in connection with such election of directors, one or more notices of nomination are withdrawn such that the number of candidates for election as director no longer exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the election shall not be considered a contested election, but in all other cases, once an election is determined to be a contested election, directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present. If a nominee fails to receive the required vote and is an incumbent director, the director shall promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors, subject to acceptance by the Board of Directors. The Governance Committee (or the Nominating and Governance Committee if those Committees have been combined) will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Board of Directors will decide whether to accept the tendered resignation, taking into account the Governance Committee’s (or the Nominating and Governance Committee’s) recommendation, and publicly disclose (by a press release, a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other broadly disseminated means of communication) its decision regarding the tendered resignation and the rationale behind the decision within ninety (90) days from the date of the certification of the election results. The Governance Committee (or the Nominating and Governance Committee) in making its recommendation and the Board of Directors in making its decision may each consider any factors or other information that they consider appropriate and relevant. The director who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in the recommendation of the Governance Committee (or the Nominating and Governance Committee) or the decision of the Board of Directors with respect to his or her resignation. If an incumbent director’s resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, such director shall continue to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected, or his or her earlier resignation or removal. If a director’s resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors, or if a nominee fails to receive the required vote and the nominee is not an incumbent director, then the Board of Directors may fill the resulting vacancy pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b) of Article V of the Articles or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.02.

The election of directors by the shareholders shall be by written ballot if directed by the Chairman of the meeting or if the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected. If the holders of preferred stock are entitled to elect any directors voting separately as a class or series, those directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares of such class or series of preferred stock entitled to vote in the election at the meeting, provided a quorum of the holders of shares of such class or series of preferred stock is present.

Terms of office of directors shall not be staggered; the Corporation hereby expressly elects not to be governed by Section 23-1-33-6(c) of the Indiana Business Corporation Law.

SECTION 2.03.    VACANCY ON BOARD. Subject to applicable law and the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock with respect to such series of preferred stock, and unless the Board of Directors otherwise determines, vacancies resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or other cause, and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors, may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, and directors so chosen shall hold office for a term expiring at the next annual meeting of shareholders and until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified.

SECTION 2.04.    REGULAR MEETINGS. After each meeting of shareholders at which directors shall have been elected, the Board of Directors shall meet as soon as practicable for the purpose of organization and the transaction of other business. In the event that no other time and place are specified by resolution of the Board of Directors, with notice in accordance with Section 2.06, the Board of Directors shall meet immediately following the close of such shareholders’ meeting. Any other regular meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held on such date and at any place as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors.

SECTION 2.05.    SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, or by a majority of the Board of Directors by vote at a meeting or in writing with or without a meeting. A special meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held on such date and at any place as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors. In the absence of designation such meeting shall be held at such place as may be designated in the call.

SECTION 2.06.    NOTICE OF MEETING. Except as provided in Section 2.04, the Secretary shall give notice to each director of each regular and special meeting of the Board of Directors. The notice shall state the time and place of the meeting. Notice is given to a director when it is delivered personally to him, left at his residence or usual place of business, or sent by telegraph, facsimile transmission, electronic mail or telephone, at least 24 hours before the time of the meeting or, in the alternative by mail to his address as it shall appear on the records of the Corporation, at least 72 hours before the time of the meeting. Unless the Bylaws or a resolution of the Board of Directors provides otherwise, the notice need not state the business to be transacted at or the purposes of any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors. No notice of any meeting of the Board of Directors need be given to any director who attends except where a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, or to any director who, in writing executed and filed with the records of the meeting either before or after the holding thereof, waives such notice. Any meeting of the Board of Directors, regular or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and no notice need be given of any such adjourned meeting other than by announcement.

SECTION 2.07.    ACTION BY DIRECTORS. Unless statute or the Articles or Bylaws require a greater proportion, the action of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present is action of the Board of Directors. A majority of the entire Board of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. In the absence of a quorum, the directors present by majority vote and without notice other than by announcement may adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum shall attend. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting, if a unanimous written consent which sets forth the action is signed by each member of the Board of Directors and filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors.

SECTION 2.08.    MEETING BY CONFERENCE TELEPHONE. Members of the Board of Directors may participate in a meeting by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment if all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other at the same time. Participation in a meeting by these means constitutes presence in person at a meeting.

SECTION 2.09.    COMPENSATION. By resolution of the Board of Directors a fixed sum and expenses, if any, for attendance at each regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors or of committees thereof, and other compensation for their services as such or on committees of the Board of Directors, may be paid to directors. Directors who are employees of the Corporation need not be paid for attendance at meetings of the Board or committees thereof for which fees are paid to other directors. A director who serves the Corporation in any other capacity also may receive compensation for such other services, pursuant to a resolution of the directors.

SECTION 2.10.    ADVISORY DIRECTORS. The Board of Directors may by resolution appoint advisory directors to the Board, who may also serve as directors emeriti, and shall have such authority and receive such compensation and reimbursement as the Board of Directors shall provide. Advisory directors or directors emeriti shall not have the authority to participate by vote in the transaction of business.

SECTION 2.11.    SURETY BONDS. Unless required by law, no director shall be obligated to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of any of his or her duties.

SECTION 3.02.    COMMITTEE PROCEDURE. Each committee may fix rules of procedure for its business. A majority of the members of a committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of those present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the committee. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of a committee may be taken without a meeting, if a unanimous written consent which sets forth the action is signed by each committee member and filed with the minutes of the committee. The members of a committee may conduct any meeting thereof by conference telephone in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.08.

(b)    To obtain indemnification under this Bylaw, a claimant shall submit to the Corporation a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the claimant and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the claimant is entitled to indemnification. Upon written request by a claimant for indemnification, a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to the claimant’s entitlement thereto shall be made as follows: (1) if requested by the claimant, by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined), or (2) if no request is made by the claimant for a determination by Independent Counsel, (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) if a quorum of the Board of Directors consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, (I) by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to the claimant or (II) by a committee of Disinterested Directors even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if a quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by a majority vote of the shareholders of the Corporation.

It shall be a defense to any such action that, under the Indiana Business Corporation Law, the claimant has not met the standard of conduct which makes it permissible for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed or that the claimant is not entitled to the requested advancement of expenses, but (except where the required Undertaking, if any, has not been tendered to the Corporation) the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation.

(b)    If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 8.01(B) of these Bylaws that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, the Corporation shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to paragraph (A) of this Section 8.03.
