Brian C. Faith and Suping (Sue) Cheung each hereby certifies:
(1) They are the President and Secretary, respectively, of QuickLogic Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "General Corporation Law");
(2) The previously filed Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of this corporation, originally filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on October 14, 1999, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
FIRST: | The name of this corporation is QuickLogic Corporation (the "Corporation"). |
SECOND: | The address of the Corporation's registered office in the State of Delaware is 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, County of New Castle, Delaware 19801. The name of its registered agent at such address is The Corporation Trust Company. |
THIRD: | The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware. |
FOURTH: | The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated respectively Common Stock and Preferred Stock. The total number of shares of all classes of stock which the Corporation has authority to issue is two hundred ten million (210,000,000), consisting of two hundred million (200,000,000) shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), and ten million (10,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value (the "Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized subject to limitations prescribed by law, to fix by resolution or resolutions the designations, powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of each such series of Preferred Stock, including without limitation authority to fix by resolution or resolutions, the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, and liquidation preferences of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, and the number of shares constituting any such series and the designation thereof, or any of the foregoing. The Board of Directors is further authorized to increase (but not above the total number of authorized shares of the class) or decrease (but not below the number of shares of any such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series, the number of which was fixed by it, subsequent to the issue of shares of such series then outstanding, subject to the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof stated in the resolution of the Board of Directors originally fixing the number of shares of such series. If the number of shares of any series is so decreased, then the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series. |
FIFTH: | The Corporation is to have perpetual existence. |
SIXTH: | The election of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation shall so provide. |
SEVENTH: | The number of directors which constitute the whole Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be designated in the Bylaws of the Corporation. |
EIGHTH: | In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, alter, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation. |
NINTH: | To the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, no director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.

Neither any amendment nor repeal of this Article, nor the adoption of any provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article, would accrue or arise, prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision. |

No stockholder will be permitted to cumulate votes at any election of directors. The number of directors which constitute the whole Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be fixed exclusively by one or more resolution adopted from time to time by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II, and Class III, respectively.

At the second annual meeting of stockholders following the date hereof, the term of office of the Class II directors shall expire and Class II directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of stockholders following the date hereof, the term of office of the Class III directors shall expire and Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At each succeeding annual meeting of stockholders, directors shall be elected for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at such annual meeting. Vacancies created by newly created directorships, created in accordance with the Bylaws of this Corporation, may be filled by the vote of a majority, although less than a quorum, of the directors then in office, or by a sole remaining director. |
ELEVENTH: | Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of Delaware, as the Bylaws may provide. The books of the Corporation may be kept (subject to any provision contained in the laws of the State of Delaware) outside of the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation. The stockholders of the Corporation may not take any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting, and must take any actions at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and the power of stockholders to consent in writing without a meeting is specifically denied. |
TWELFTH: | Advance notice of new business and stockholder nominations for the election of directors shall be given in the manner and to the extent provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation. |
THIRTEENTH: | Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation or any provision of law which might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, but in addition to any affirmative vote of the holders of the capital stock required by law or this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the combined voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote shall be required to alter, amend or repeal Articles NINTH, TENTH, ELEVENTH or TWELFTH hereof, or this Article THIRTEENTH, or any provision thereof or hereof, unless such amendment shall be approved by a majority of the directors of the Corporation. |
