The provision further provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provision.
The foregoing summary of the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete Second Amended and Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
