Discharge of the Company		The Plan shall provide certain customary discharge provisions which shall include, except as otherwise provided in the Plan, that on the Effective Date, and effective as of the Effective Date: (a) the rights afforded in the Plan and the treatment of all Claims and interests therein shall be, and shall be deemed to be, in exchange for, and in complete satisfaction, settlement, discharge and release of all Claims or other obligations, suits, judgments, damages, debts, rights, remedies, causes of action or liabilities, or interests or other rights of an equity security holder, relating to any of the Debtors or their respective estates, or interests of any nature whatsoever, including any interest accrued on such Claims from and after the Commencement Date, against any of the Debtors or any of their assets, property or their estates; (b) the Plan shall bind all holders of Claims and interests, notwithstanding whether any such holders failed to vote to accept or reject the Plan or voted to reject the Plan; (c) all Claims against and interests in the Company shall be, and shall be deemed to be, satisfied, discharged and released in full, and the Debtors’ liability with respect thereto shall be extinguished completely, including any liability of the kind specified under section 502(g), 502(h) or 502(i) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (d) all persons and entities shall be precluded from asserting against the Debtors, the Debtors’ respective estates, the Reorganized Debtors, their successors and assigns, their assets and properties, any other Claims or interests based upon any documents, instruments, or any act or omission, transaction or other activity of any kind or nature that occurred prior to the Effective Date.

Injunction		The Plan shall provide certain customary injunction provisions, which shall provide that each person that has held, currently holds or may hold a Claim or other obligation, suit, judgment, damages, debt, right, remedy, cause of action, liability, interest or other right of an equity security holder, and each other party in interest and each of their respective agents and related persons, are, and shall be, permanently, forever and completely stayed, restrained, prohibited, barred and enjoined from taking, whether directly or indirectly, derivatively or otherwise on account of or based on the subject matter of any such released Claims or other released obligations, suits, judgments, damages, debts, rights, remedies, causes of action or liabilities or interests or other rights of an equity security holder: (i) commencing, conducting or continuing in any manner, directly or indirectly, any suit, action or other proceeding (including, without limitation, any judicial, arbitral, administrative or other proceeding) in any forum; (ii) enforcing, attaching (including, without limitation, any prejudgment attachment), collecting, or in any way seeking to recover any judgment, award, decree, or other order; (iii) creating, perfecting or in any way enforcing in any matter, directly or indirectly, any encumbrance; (iv) setting off, seeking reimbursement or contributions from, or subrogation against, or otherwise recouping in any manner, directly or indirectly, any amount against any liability or obligation owed to any person; and (v) commencing or continuing in any manner, in any place of any action, which in any such case does not comply with or is inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan or the Confirmation Order.

Entry of the Confirmation Order will constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the survival, and/or the Debtors’ assumption, of each of the foregoing, including the existing D&O liability. The Company, having already purchased tail coverage for its current directors and officers, shall have no further obligation to purchase D&O insurance policies or pay any premiums relating thereto. The Plan shall also provide that organizational documents for the Reorganized Debtors shall contain director and officer liability exculpation and indemnity provisions (including advancement of expenses) to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law (or the law of the state of organization or formation, if not Delaware).

Executory Contracts		On the Effective Date, all executory contracts or unexpired leases of the Debtors that have not been expressly assumed by the Debtors on or before the Effective Date shall be deemed rejected in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, unless such executory contract or unexpired lease (i) was previously assumed or rejected by the Debtors, (ii) previously expired or was terminated pursuant to its terms, or (iii) is an executory contract or unexpired lease that is included under a separate assumption/rejection motion or is required under the Plan to be included in such motion, or (iv) has otherwise been listed on a schedule, to be filed prior to the confirmation objection deadline, of contracts or leases to be rejected on or after the Effective Date. Entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court shall constitute approval of such rejection pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code.


Other Causes of Action		Revested in Reorganized Debtors unless otherwise provided in the Plan.

Distribution Provisions		The Plan shall include standard provisions governing distributions on account of allowed claims, including provisions for an initial distribution date and periodic distributions thereafter, a distribution record date, the delivery of distributions and the surrender of prepetition debt instruments, in each case subject to customary Depository Trust Company procedures (if applicable) or the requirements of any indenture (if applicable). The Plan shall also provide that post-petition interest will not be allowed or paid on prepetition claims except as set forth in the Plan.

Retention of Jurisdiction		The Plan shall provide that, notwithstanding the entry of the Confirmation Order and the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction over all matters arising out of, and related to, the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases and the Plan.

Tax		The Plan and the Plan Documents also shall contain provisions to preserve the Company’s tax attributes, if any, upon emergence from chapter 11 that are acceptable to a Supermajority of Consenting Noteholders.

Except as otherwise provided by resolutions, if any, of the Board of Directors fixing the relative powers, preferences and rights and the qualification, limitations or restrictions of any series of Preferred Stock, the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be not less than 3 directors, the exact number of directors to be fixed from time to time solely by a resolution passed by a majority of the Board of Directors and may not be fixed by any other person, including stockholders. In no case shall a decrease in the number of directors remove or shorten the term of any incumbent director.

C. Committees. The Board of Directors may, by resolution or resolutions passed by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, designate one or more committees, which to the extent provided in said resolution or resolutions or in the Bylaws of the Corporation, shall have and may exercise the powers of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation to the full extent permitted by law and this Certificate, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it.

Each Initial Stockholder shall have a right to subscribe Pro Rata (as defined below) for any New Securities; provided, however, that this Article 8 shall not apply to New Securities issued (i) pursuant to the LTIP, (ii) to any employee, director or consultant pursuant to any incentive plan, compensation plan or similar plan or arrangement approved by the stockholders of the Corporation, (iii) in connection with a Public Offering or (iv) in a transaction where all of the holders of Common Stock are given the right to participate on a pro rata basis. In order to exercise its purchase rights hereunder, the Initial Stockholder must deliver a written notice by sworn affidavit to the Corporation that they are an Initial Stockholder, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Preemptive Right Notice. If an Initial Stockholder fails to exercise its rights pursuant to this Article 8, the Corporation shall be entitled to sell the New Securities which such Initial Stockholder has not elected to purchase during the ninety (90) days following such failure, on terms and conditions no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Initial Stockholder. Any New Securities sold by the Corporation after such ninety (90) day period must be reoffered to the Initial Stockholders pursuant to the terms of this Article 8. The preemptive rights provided by this Article 8 are non-transferable, except that any Initial Stockholder may transfer such preemptive rights to any of its Affiliates who owns shares of Common Stock. “Initial Stockholders” means the Consenting Noteholders and each Affiliate of a Consenting Noteholder, so long as such Person (together with its Affiliates) is the beneficial owner (as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of shares of Common Stock in an amount equal to at least 50% of the number of shares of Common Stock such Person (together with its Affiliates) received on the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan) pursuant to the Plan.² “Pro Rata” means that the Initial Stockholder may exercise such preemptive right or participate in such issuance for an amount of New Securities up to the product of (x) the amount of such New Securities to be issued and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal (without duplication) the number of shares of Common Stock (on a fully diluted basis after assuming the exercise or conversion of all outstanding convertible securities) then held by such Initial Stockholder (together with its Affiliates), and the denominator of which shall equal the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (on a fully diluted basis). For purposes of this Article 8 and Article 11 of this Certificate, “Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, association, joint-stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or Governmental Body. “Governmental Body” means any United States federal, state or local, or any supra-national or non-U.S., government, political subdivision, governmental, regulatory or administrative authority, instrumentality, agency body or commission, self-regulatory organization, court, tribunal or judicial or arbitral body.

9. Stockholder Action Without a Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a written consent or consents, setting forth the action so taken, are signed by holders of issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote on such action having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote on such action were present and voted.

²	Consider listing Initial Stockholders by name.

Unless the Board of Directors shall have set a record date with respect to a written consent prior to the date that the first such written consent was delivered to the Corporation as set forth below, the record date in accordance with this Article 9 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 by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.

10. Stockholder Rights Plans. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Certificate, the Bylaws of the Corporation, or otherwise, the Corporation shall not, without first obtaining the approval (by affirmative vote or written consent) of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, adopt any stockholder rights plan, “poison pill,” or any other similar plan or provision by action of the Board of Directors, amendment of this Certificate (including by way of merger), the adoption or amendment of a certificate of designations, the creation or amendment of the terms of any series of Preferred Stock or otherwise.

11. Interested Transactions. Unless a majority of the Disinterested Directors (or, if there is only one Disinterested Director, such Disinterested Director) has given its prior approval (by affirmative vote or written consent), the Corporation shall not take, and the Corporation shall take whatever action is necessary to prevent any subsidiary of the Corporation from taking, any of the following actions: entering into or agreeing to enter into, directly or indirectly, any agreement involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5 million, any contract or arrangement or any, transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the acquisition, lease, sale or exchange of properties of any kind, the rendering of any service, or with respect to any merger, business combination, acquisition or disposition) with any Affiliate (other than the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation). “Affiliate” means, as applied to any Person, any other Person who, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such first Person; for purposes of this definition, “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. “Disinterested Director” means a director of the Corporation who is not a director or officer of and does not have any financial interest in the Person that is an Affiliate and that is a party to or otherwise involved with such agreement, contract, arrangement, transaction or series of transactions.

12. Employment Agreements. Without the prior approval of at least 66²/3% of the Board of Directors then in office (by affirmative vote or unanimous written consent), neither the Corporation nor any of its subsidiaries shall enter into, adopt or amend: (A) any employment agreement, contract or arrangement or any compensation or benefit agreement, plan or arrangement with or for the benefit of any person who is, or after taking such agreement, contract, plan or arrangement into account, would be, among the five highest compensated employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, for the fiscal year in which such action is being taken; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any broad based benefit agreement, plan or arrangement in which a significant number of employees, in addition to the five highest compensated employees, are entitled to participate in and receive benefits; or (B) any stock based compensation plan or arrangement.

13. Personal Liability. No person who is or was after the date of this Certificate, a director of the Corporation, shall be personally liable to the Corporation or 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 by the DGCL as the same exists or hereafter may be amended. If the DGCL is hereafter amended to authorize corporate action further limiting or eliminating the liability of directors, then the liability of a director to the Corporation or its stockholders shall be limited or eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. Any repeal, amendment or modification of this Article 13 by the stockholders of the Corporation or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provision of this Certificate inconsistent with this Article 13 will, unless otherwise required by law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits the Corporation to further limit or eliminate the liability of directors) and shall not adversely affect (or eliminate or reduce) any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of, or increase the liability of any director of the Corporation with respect to any event or act or omission of such director occurring prior to, such repeal, amendment or modification or adoption of such inconsistent provision with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal, amendment or modification or adoption of such inconsistent provision, or if applicable, modification of law.

14. Right to Indemnification.

A. Right to Indemnification of Directors and Officers. The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person (an “Indemnified Person”) who was or is 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 (hereinafter a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, 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, trustee, manager, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, company, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, non-profit entity or other enterprise, including service with respect to any employee benefit plan, whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, employee or agent, against all liability and loss suffered (including judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with such Proceeding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Article 14.C, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify an Indemnified Person in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Indemnified Person only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnified Person was authorized in advance by the Board of Directors.

B. Prepayment of Expenses of Directors and Officers. The Corporation shall pay or reimburse (on an unsecured basis) an Indemnified Person for the reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such Proceeding in advance of its final disposition or final judicial decision (hereinafter an “advancement of expenses”); provided, however, that, if and to the extent required by law, such payment or reimbursement of expenses in advance of the final disposition of or final judicial decision regarding the Proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined at final disposition or by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a “Final Adjudication”) that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Article 14 or otherwise.

C. Claims. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Article 14 is not paid in full by the Corporation within 30 days after a written claim by the Indemnified Person has been received by the Corporation, the Indemnified Person may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In any action brought by the Indemnified Person to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the Indemnified Person to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that the Indemnified Person has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Further, in any action brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking by an Indemnified Person, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a Final Adjudication that the Indemnified Person has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the Indemnified Person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) shall create a presumption that the Indemnified Person has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such an action brought by the Indemnified Person, be a defense to such action. In any action brought by the Indemnified Person to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article 14 or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

D. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this Article 14 shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of this Certificate, the Bylaws of the Corporation, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

E. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, trustee, manager, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, or of a partnership, company, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, non-profit entity or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under applicable law, this Article 14 or otherwise.

F. Indemnification of and Advancement of Expenses of Employees and Agents. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article 14 with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

G. Limitations. The Corporation shall not be liable under this Article 14 to make any payment in connection with any claim made against the Indemnified Person (or pay or reimburse any expenses to any Indemnified Person) to the extent the Indemnified Person has otherwise actually received payment (under any insurance policy, other right of indemnity or agreement or otherwise) of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable or payable hereunder. The Corporation shall not be liable to indemnify any Indemnified Person under this Article 14: (a) for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Corporation’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or (b) for any judicial award if the Corporation was not given a reasonably timely opportunity to participate, at its expense, in the defense of such action, but only to the extent that the failure to be given such reasonably timely opportunity actually and materially prejudiced the Corporation’s ability to defend such action.

H. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Article 14, the Corporation shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnified Person, who shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents reasonably necessary to enable the Corporation effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

I. Amendment or Repeal; Successors. No amendment, modification or repeal of the provisions of this Article 14, nor the adoption of any provision of this Certificate inconsistent with this Article 14, nor to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any modification of law, shall adversely affect (or eliminate or reduce) any right or protection hereunder of any person in respect of any event, act or omission occurring prior to the time of such amendment, modification or repeal, or adoption of any inconsistent provision or, if applicable, modification of law (regardless of when any Proceeding (or part thereof) relating to such event, act or omission arises or is first threatened, commenced or completed). The rights conferred by this Article 14 shall inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person (and shall continue as to an Indemnified Person who has ceased to be a director or officer) and such person’s legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, devises and legatees.

15. Amendment or Repeal of Articles. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, (i) prior to the Sunset Time (as defined herein), (A) the amendment, alteration or repeal of Articles 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, or 17 of this Certificate shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66²/3% of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, and (B) all other amendments to this Certificate shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, and (ii) on and after the Sunset Time, all amendments to this Certificate shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. “Sunset Time” means the seven month anniversary of the date of the filing of this Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

16. Registered Holders. The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the person in whose name any share of stock or any warrant, right or option is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such share, warrant, right or option on the part of any other person, whether or not the Corporation shall have notice thereof, save as may be expressly provided otherwise by law.

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

ARTICLE I - STOCKHOLDERS

Section 1.01 Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of the stockholders of Blockbuster Inc. (the “Corporation”), for the election of directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting, shall be held at such place (within or without the State of Delaware), on such date, and at such time as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) shall designate and as may be stated in the notice of the annual meeting. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that the annual meeting shall not be held at any place, but shall be held solely by means of remote communication, subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board of Directors may adopt, as permitted by applicable law.

Section 1.02 Special Meetings. A special meeting of the stockholders may be called by (i) the Chairman of the Board, (ii) the President, (iii) the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution approved by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office or (iv) pursuant to a written request of holders of 20% of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. Upon the delivery to the Corporation of such a written request by stockholders for the holding of a special meeting of stockholders, the Corporation shall within ten days determine whether such demand has been made by holders of at least 20% of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors and, if so, shall hold a meeting of the Board of Directors within five days of such determination. At such meeting, the Board of Directors shall set the time and place of such special meeting, which time shall be not less than 30 days and not more than 45 days after the date of such meeting of the Board of Directors. The place of meeting shall be generally suitable for holding a meeting of stockholders and generally convenient to the stockholders. At such meeting of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors shall also set the date for determination of stockholders of record in accordance with Section 213 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). Following such meeting of the Board of Directors, the Secretary of the Corporation (the “Secretary”) will cause notice of the meeting and the relevant dates to be promptly sent to the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting. The business transacted at a special meeting of the stockholders shall be limited to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of the meeting, which in the case of a special meeting called at the request of the stockholders shall be the purpose or purposes stated in such request. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors pursuant to a special meeting may be made by any stockholder at the special meeting of stockholders called by stockholders at which directors are to be elected.

Section 1.03 Notice of Meetings; Adjournment. Written notice of the place, if any, date, and time of all meetings of the stockholders and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting shall be given in accordance with this Section 1.03 and Article VI, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date on which the meeting is to be held, to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, except as otherwise required by law.

Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special (other than a meeting called at the request of stockholders at which there is a quorum), may be adjourned by the chairman of the meeting, from time to time, to reconvene at the same or some other place, if any. Notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the date, time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the date of any adjourned meeting is more than 30 days after the date for which the meeting was originally noticed, or if a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given in accordance with this Section 1.03 and Article VI.

An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice of any stockholders’ meeting, executed by the Secretary, Assistant Secretary or any transfer agent of the Corporation giving the notice, shall be prima facie evidence of the giving of such notice.

Section 1.04 Quorum. At all meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at such meeting, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of any business, except as otherwise required by law or these Bylaws for a specified action; provided that if a separate class vote is required with respect to any matter, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of such class issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum of such class for the transaction of any business, except as otherwise provided by law or these Bylaws for a specified action. If such a quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the chairman of the meeting or stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast thereat, present in person or by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting to another place, date or time.

Section 1.05 Stockholders Entitled to Vote and Record Date. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or 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 shall fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of any meeting of stockholders, nor more than 60 days prior to the time for such other action as hereinbefore described, except that a separate record date may be established to determine the stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders, which record date shall be any date after the date that the notice of such meeting of stockholders is given pursuant to this Section 1.05 and before or on the date of such meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that if no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, 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 next day preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the next day preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or 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 or record dates to determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at such adjourned meeting.

Section 1.06 Order of Business at Annual Meetings and Special Meetings.¹ At any annual meeting, such business (including nominations for election of directors) shall be conducted only if brought before such annual meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or by any stockholder who is a stockholder of record on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 1.06 and on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such annual meeting, and who complies with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.06.

For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the business must be a proper subject for action by stockholders under the DGCL and the stockholder must give written notice to the Secretary in accordance with this Section 1.06. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice to the secretary must be delivered to the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than ten (10) days before the date of such annual meeting. Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth (i) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director at such meeting: (A) the name, age, and business address of the nominee(s), (B) the principal occupation or employment of the nominee(s) and (C) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially or of record by the nominee(s); (ii) as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting; and (iii) as to the stockholder giving the notice: (A) the name and residence address of such stockholder and (B) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially by such stockholder. All notices of intent to make a nomination for election as a director shall be accompanied by the written consent of each nominee to serve as director of the Corporation if so elected.

At all meetings of the stockholders, the Chairman of the Board, or, in the Chairman of the Board’s absence (or inability or refusal to act), the Chief Executive Officer, President, or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of all of the aforementioned officers, the most senior Vice-President, shall act as chairman of the meeting. The chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts and things as are reasonably necessary or desirable for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, the establishment of procedures for the dismissal of business which is not a proper matter for stockholder action or not properly presented, in each case in accordance with the DGCL, the maintenance of order and safety, limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments on the affairs of the Corporation, restrictions on entry to such meeting after the time prescribed for the commencement thereof, the opening and closing of the voting polls, whether any vote shall be by written ballot, the adjournment of the meeting and the appointment of one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. The secretary of each meeting of stockholders shall be the Secretary or, in the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary so appointed to act by the chairman of the meeting. In the absence (or inability or refusal to act) of the Secretary and all Assistant Secretaries, the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

¹	To be revised to address proxy access rules.

If authorized by the Board of Directors in accordance with these Bylaws and applicable law, stockholders and proxyholders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication, (1) participate in a meeting of stockholders and (2) be deemed present in person and entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders, whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that (i) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxyholder, (ii) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxyholders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings, and (iii) if any stockholder or proxyholder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

Section 1.07 Proxies. Subject to applicable law, every stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy in all matters in which a stockholder is entitled to participate, including waiving any notice of any meeting, voting or participating at a meeting. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after one year from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable, and if and only so long as it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.

Execution of a proxy may be accomplished by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing such person’s signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder.

Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used; provided that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

Section 1.08 Method of Voting; Required Vote. The vote at any election or upon any question at any meeting of stockholders need not be by written ballot, except as required by law. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the Board of Directors, in its discretion, or the chairman presiding at a meeting of stockholders, in the chairman’s discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) or these Bylaws, all matters shall be determined by a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock issued and outstanding present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon (and in the context of a separate class vote, a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock of such class issued and outstanding present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon).

Section 1.09 Stockholders List. A complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders, for each class or series of stock and showing the address of each such stockholder and the number of shares registered in each such stockholder’s name, shall be open to the examination of any such stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, at the principal place of business of the Corporation (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than 10 days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date). Nothing contained in this Section 1.09 shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place other than the Corporation’s principal place of business, then the stockholders list shall also be kept at the place of the meeting during the whole time of the meeting and shall be open to the examination of any stockholder who is present and entitled to vote at such meeting. This list shall presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.

Section 1.10 Stockholder Action Without a Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a written consent or consents, setting forth the action so taken, are signed by holders of issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote on such action having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote on such action were present and voted.

Unless the Board of Directors shall have set a record date with respect to a written consent prior to the date that the first such written consent was delivered to the Corporation as set forth below, the record date in accordance with this Section 1.10 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 by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.

Section 2.08 Quorum; Required Vote. At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors unless a greater number is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. If at any meeting of the Board of Directors there shall be less than a quorum present, then a majority of those present may adjourn the meeting from time to time to another place, date or time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is obtained.

Section 2.12 Resignation and Vacancies. Any director may resign effective upon giving written notice to the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Secretary or the Board of Directors, unless the notice specifies a later time for the resignation to become effective.

Section 2.13 Reliance upon Records. Every director, and every member of any Committee, shall, in the performance of such person’s duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Corporation and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Corporation by any of its officers or employees, or Committees, or by any other person as to matters the director or member reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation, including, but not limited to, such records, information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities and/or net profits of the Corporation, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of surplus or other funds from which dividends might properly be declared and paid, or with which the Corporation’s stock might properly be purchased or redeemed.

ARTICLE III - COMMITTEES

The Board of Directors may, by resolution or resolutions passed by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, designate such Committees as it may deem appropriate (and may discontinue the same at any time by resolution or resolutions passed by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office), each Committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the Corporation shall maintain such Committees as are required by and in compliance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the stock exchange on which the Corporation’s common stock is then listed and applicable law. The members of any Committee shall be appointed by the Board of Directors and shall hold office at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any Committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the Committee, by resolution or resolutions passed by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office. No Committee shall have the power to: (i) approve or adopt, or recommend to the stockholders, any action or matter (other than the election or removal of directors) expressly required by the DGCL to be submitted to stockholders for approval; (ii) change the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors; (iii) fill any vacancy on the Board of Directors or any Committee; or (iv) adopt, amend or repeal these Bylaws.

Notice of each meeting of a Committee shall be given (or waived) in the same manner as notice for a Board of Directors’ meeting may be given (or waived), and a majority of the members of the entire Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The act of a majority of the members of the entire Committee present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Committee unless a greater number is required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation. In the absence of disqualification of any member of any such Committee or Committees, but not in the case of a vacancy therein, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not the member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors, who is not an officer of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries and who otherwise is qualified to serve on such Committee, to act at the meeting for all purposes in the place of any such absent or disqualified Committee member.

ARTICLE IV - OFFICERS

Section 4.01 General. The Board of Directors, as soon as may be practicable after each annual meeting of the stockholders, shall appoint officers of the Corporation, including a Chief Executive Officer, one or more Vice Presidents, a Secretary and a Treasurer and shall also choose a Chairman of the Board. The Board of Directors may also elect a President, a Chief Financial Officer, a Chief Operating Officer and a Controller. The Board of Directors may also from time to time (i) appoint such other officers (including one or more Assistant Vice Presidents, and one or more Assistant Secretaries and one or more Assistant Treasurers) as it may deem proper who shall hold their offices for such terms and shall exercise such powers and perform such duties as shall be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors or (ii) may delegate to any elected officer of the Corporation the power so to appoint and remove any such other officers and to prescribe their respective terms of office, powers and duties. Any Vice President may be designated Executive, Senior or Corporate, or may be given such other designation or combination of designations as the Board of Directors may determine. Any two offices may be held by the same person.

Section 4.02 Term; Removal; Resignation and Vacancy. All officers of the Corporation shall hold office until their respective successors are elected or appointed and qualified. Any officer may be removed from office at any time either with or without cause by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board of Directors then in office, or, in the case of appointed officers, by any elected officer upon whom such power of removal shall have been conferred by the Board of Directors. Any officer may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or the Secretary. Unless otherwise stated in a notice of resignation, a resignation shall take effect when received by the officer to whom it is directed, without any need for its acceptance. Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Corporation shall be filled by the Board of Directors or by any elected officer to whom the Board of Directors has delegated the power to appoint an officer to such office.

Section 4.03 Powers and Duties. Each of the officers of the Corporation shall have powers and duties prescribed by law, by the Bylaws or by the Board of Directors and, unless otherwise prescribed by the Bylaws or by the Board of Directors, shall have such further powers and duties as ordinarily pertain to that office. Any officer, agent, or employee of the Corporation may be required to give bond for the faithful discharge of such person’s duties in such sum and with such surety or sureties as the Board of Directors may from time to time prescribe.

ARTICLE V – CERTIFICATES OF STOCK; UNCERTIFICATED SHARES

Section 5.01 Stock Certificates. The shares of stock of the Corporation may be represented by certificates; provided that the Board of Directors may provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series of the Corporation’s stock shall be uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the Corporation. The certificates for shares of stock shall be in such form as the Board of Directors may from time to time prescribe.

To the extent shares are represented by a certificate, the certificate of stock shall be signed by such officer or officers of the Corporation as may be permitted by law to sign (which signatures may be facsimiles), and shall be countersigned and registered in such manner, all as the Board of Directors may by resolution prescribe. In case any officer or officers who shall have signed or whose facsimile signature or signatures shall cease to be such officer or officers of the Corporation, whether because of death, resignation, removal or otherwise, before such certificate or certificates shall have been issued by the Corporation, such certificate or certificates may nevertheless be issued and delivered as though the person or persons who signed such certificate or certificates, or whose facsimile signature or signatures shall have been used thereon, had not ceased to be such officer or officers of the Corporation.

Section 5.02 Book-Entry Shares. Shares of the Corporation’s stock may also be evidenced by registration in the holder’s name in uncertificated, book-entry form on the books of the Corporation. Except as otherwise expressly provided by applicable law, the rights and obligations of the holders of shares represented by certificates and the rights and obligations of the holders of uncertificated shares of the same class and series shall be identical.

Section 5.03 Transfer Agents and Registrars. The Board of Directors may, in its discretion, appoint responsible banks or trust companies or other qualified institutions to act as transfer agents or registrars of the stock of the Corporation. Any such bank, trust company or other qualified institution appointed to act as transfer agent or registrar of the stock of the Corporation shall transfer stock of the Corporation in accordance with its customary transfer procedures and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

Section 5.04 Lost, Destroyed or Wrongfully Taken Certificates. If an owner of a certificate representing shares of stock in the Corporation claims that such certificate has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Corporation shall issue a new certificate representing such shares or such shares in uncertificated form if the owner: (i) requests such a new certificate before the Corporation has notice that the certificate representing such shares has been acquired by a protected purchaser; (ii) if requested by the Corporation, delivers to the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, destruction or wrongful taking of such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares; and (iii) satisfies other reasonable requirements imposed by the Corporation.

If a certificate representing shares has been lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken, and the owner fails to notify the Corporation of that fact within a reasonable time after the owner has notice of such loss, apparent destruction or wrongful taking and the Corporation registers a transfer of such shares before receiving notification, the owner shall be precluded from asserting against the Corporation any claim for registering such transfer or a claim to a new certificate representing such shares or such shares in uncertificated form

Section 5.05 Additional Rules and Regulations. The Board of Directors may make such additional rules and regulations as it may deem expedient, and not inconsistent with these Bylaws, concerning the issue, transfer and registration of certificated or uncertificated shares of stock of the Corporation. All references to stock or shares in these Bylaws shall refer to either stock or shares represented by certificates or uncertificated stock, and no such reference shall be construed to require certificated shares or to grant additional or different rights or obligations as between the holders of certificated and uncertificated stock of the Corporation.

ARTICLE VI - NOTICES

Section 6.01 Notices. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein or required by law, all notices required to be given by the Corporation to any stockholder, officer, employee or agent shall be in writing and may in every instance be effectively given by hand delivery to the recipient thereof, by depositing such notice in the mail, postage paid, or by sending such notice by courier such as UPS or FedEx, telecopy or facsimile transmission. Any such notice shall be addressed to such stockholder, officer, employee or agent at his or her last known address as the same appears on the books of the Corporation. The time when such notice is received, if hand delivered or delivered by courier, telecopy or facsimile transmission shall be the time of the giving of the notice. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in United States mail in a sealed envelope addressed to such person at such person’s address as it appears on the records of the Corporation with postage paid thereon. Notices to directors shall be given in accordance with Section 2.09.

Section 6.02 Waivers. A written waiver of any notice, signed by a stockholder, director, officer, employee or agent, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to the notice required to be given to such stockholder, director, officer, employee or agent. Neither the business nor the purpose of any meeting need be specified in such a waiver.

Attendance at a meeting of stockholders, the Board of Directors, or any Committee as may from time to time be established, shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the stockholder, director or member of such Committee attends the 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.

Section 6.03 Dispensation with Notice. Whenever notice is required to be given by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required, and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given.

Except as set forth below, the Board of Directors, by a majority vote of the Board of Directors then in office at any meeting, may amend these Bylaws, including any bylaw adopted by the stockholders, provided that the stockholders may from time to time specify particular provisions of the Bylaws which shall not be amended by the Board of Directors.

Section 7.08 Section Headings. The headings of the Articles and Sections of these Bylaws are inserted for convenience or reference only and shall not be deemed to be a part thereof or used in the construction or interpretation thereof.
