increase in such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of
that class.

shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.
ARTICLE EIGHTH: Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock
with respect to such series of Preferred Stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by the
stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent

transaction of such business as may properly come before the meeting may only be called by order of
the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors (pursuant to a resolution adopted by
a majority of the total number of directors that the Corporation would have if there were no
vacancies) or the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, and shall be held at such date and
time, within or without the State of Delaware, as may be specified by such order. If such order

to the Corporation or to any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty
as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not
permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may
hereafter be amended. Any amendment or 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.
ARTICLE TWELFTH:
(a) Right to Indemnification. The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended

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 in nature (a
proceeding), by reason of the fact that such Covered Person, or a person for whom he or she is
the legal representative, is or was, at any time during which this Section (a) of Article Twelfth

Corporation as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, limited
liability company,
4
partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust, nonprofit entity or other
enterprise, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a
director, officer, trustee, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director,
officer, trustee, employee or agent, against all liability and loss suffered (including, without
limitation, any judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement)

and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided however,
that, except as provided in Section (b) of this Article Twelfth, the Corporation shall be required
to indemnify a person in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person
only if the proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors. The right to
indemnification conferred in this Section (a) of Article Twelfth and such rights as may be
conferred in the By-laws of the Corporation shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation
the expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any such
proceeding in advance of its final disposition, in accordance with the By-laws of the Corporation.
The rights conferred upon Covered Persons in this Section (a) of Article Twelfth shall be contract
rights that vest at the time of such persons service to or at the request of the Corporation and
such rights shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to be a director, officer,
trustee, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitees heirs, executors and
administrators. The Corporation may, by action of the Board of Directors, provide indemnification
to employees and agents of the Corporation with the same (or lesser) scope and effect as the
foregoing indemnification of directors and officers.

Corporation, if a claim for indemnification under Section (a) of this Article Twelfth is not paid
in full within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the
Covered Person making such claim may at any time thereafter file suit to recover the unpaid amount
of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of
prosecuting such claim.
(c) Non-Exclusivity of Rights. In accordance with the By-laws of the Corporation, the
right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance
of its final disposition conferred any Covered Person by Section (a) of this Article Twelfth (i)
shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such Covered Person may have or hereafter acquire
under any statute, provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the

request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan

the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. To the extent that the Corporation maintains
any policy or policies providing such insurance, each such person shall be covered by such policy
