Item 5.03Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) filed a certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Certificate of Amendment”) amending, as of 12:01 a.m. EDT on July 29, 2024 (the “Effective Time”), the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended (the “Amended Certificate of Incorporation”), to effect a change of the Company’s name from “WillScot Mobile Mini Holdings Corp.” to “WillScot Holdings Corporation” (the “Name Change”).

After the Effective Time, the Company’s common stock continues to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker “WSC.” The Name Change does not affect the rights of the Company’s shareholders and, pursuant to Delaware law, a shareholder vote was not necessary to effectuate the Name Change.

In addition, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) amended and restated the Company’s Fifth Amended and Restated Bylaws (now, the “Sixth Amended and Restated Bylaws”), effective as of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment, to reflect the Name Change.

The foregoing descriptions are only a summary of the Certificate of Amendment, the Amended Certificate of Incorporation and the Sixth Amended and Restated Bylaws, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, the Amended Certificate of Incorporation and the Sixth Amended and Restated Bylaws, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.

(b) Immediately upon the effectiveness (the “Effective Time”) of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”), each share of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) issued and outstanding or held as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without the need for any further action, be reclassified as, and shall be converted into, one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock.

2. Preferred Stock. Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series pursuant to a resolution or resolutions providing for such issue duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) and the filing of a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware (a “Preferred



Designation”), authority to do so being hereby expressly vested in the Board.

(b) Except as otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Designation), at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, the holders of the Common Stock shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders.

(c) Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders.
(d) Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation may be called only by the Board, the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

ARTICLE VI

Bylaws

In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board shall have the power to adopt, amend, repeal or otherwise alter the bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”) without any action on the part of the stockholders. The Bylaws may also be amended, supplemented or repealed by the stockholders at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, the notice for which designates that an amendment, supplement or repeal of one or more of such sections is to be considered, and only by an affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote upon such amendment, supplement or repeal, voting as a single class.

ARTICLE VII

Directors

1. Board of Directors. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board.

2. Number; Term; Election; Qualification. The number of directors that constitutes the Board shall be fixed from time to time by resolution of the Board in accordance with the Bylaws, and shall consist of not less than three or more than thirteen directors. Each director shall be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders and shall hold office until the following annual meeting of stockholders. The term of each director serving as of and immediately following the date of the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders shall expire at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, notwithstanding that such director may have been elected for a term that extended beyond the date of the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders. Each director shall serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her death, resignation, or removal. If the number of directors is hereafter changed, no decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

3. Vacancies. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, (x) any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other causes shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board and not by the stockholders and (y) newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors shall be filled by the affirmative vote of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board and not by the stockholders. Any director elected in accordance with this Article VII shall hold office (i) in the event of a new directorship created or vacancy occurring prior to the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and (ii) in the event of a new directorship created or vacancy occurring after the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, until the next annual meeting of stockholders and, in each case, until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified.

4. Written Ballot. Unless and except to the extent that the Bylaws shall so require, the election of directors of the Corporation need not be by written ballot.

ARTICLE VIII

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification

1. Limitation of Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, a director or officer of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or to its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s or officer’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, in the case of directors only, (iv) for any action by or in the right of the Corporation, in the case of officers only, or (v) for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or officers, then the liability of a director or officer of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as amended. No amendment to, modification of, or repeal of this Article VIII, Section 1 shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director or officer of the Corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment.

2. Indemnification. The Corporation shall, in accordance with this Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, indemnify, advance expenses, and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended (but in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such
3



amendment permits the Corporation), any person (a “Covered Person”) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she 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, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred by such Covered Person. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except for claims for indemnification (following the final disposition of such Proceeding) or advancement of expenses not paid in full, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify a Covered Person in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Covered Person only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Covered Person was authorized in the specific case by the Board. Any amendment, repeal or modification of this Section 2 shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

3. Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

ARTICLE IX

Exclusive Jurisdiction for Certain Actions

1. Exclusive Forum. Unless the Board or one of its duly authorized committees otherwise approves in writing, the selection of an alternate forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware does not have jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, or, if the Superior Court of the State of Delaware also does not have jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, (iv) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws or (v) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine (each, a “Covered Proceeding”).

2. Personal Jurisdiction. If any action the subject matter of which is a Covered Proceeding is filed in a court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, where permitted in accordance with Section 1 above, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, (each, a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any person or entity (a “Claiming Party”) without the prior written approval of the Board or one of its duly authorized committees, such Claiming Party shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed to have consented to (i) the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, where applicable, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware and the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, in connection with any action brought in any such courts to enforce Section 1 above (an “Enforcement Action”) and (ii) having service of process made upon such Claiming Party in any such Enforcement Action by service upon such Claiming Party’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such Claiming Party.

3. Notice and Consent.

ARTICLE X

Severability

If any provision or provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each portion of any section of the Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each such portion of any section of the Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to permit the Corporation to protect its directors, officers, employees and agents from personal liability in respect of their good faith service to or for the benefit of the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law.

ARTICLE XI

Corporate Opportunity

The Corporation hereby renounces pursuant to Section 122(17) of the DGCL any interest or expectancy in, or being offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity or classes or categories of business opportunities that are presented to any of the Corporation’s non-employee directors or any of their affiliates (together, an “Identified Person”) which may be a corporate opportunity for such Identified Person and the Corporation or any of its affiliates. In the event that any Identified Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or other business opportunity which may be a corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself and the Corporation or any of its affiliates, such Identified Person shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, have no duty to communicate or offer such transaction or other business opportunity to the Corporation or any of its affiliates and, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, shall not be liable to the Company, its affiliates or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder or director of the Company solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself, or offers or directs such corporate opportunity to another Person or does not present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation or its affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation does not renounce its interest or expectancy in any corporate opportunity offered to any Identified Person if such opportunity is expressly offered to such Identified Person solely in his or her capacity as a director of the Corporation, and the foregoing provisions of this Article XI shall not apply to any such corporate opportunity. Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, the provisions of this Article XI shall have no further force or effect from and after the earlier of such time as (i) TDR Capital LLP (“TDR”) ceases to beneficially own at least 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and (ii) TDR is not entitled to designate one or more members of the Board in accordance with the Shareholders Agreement, by and among the Corporation, TDR and the other parties thereto (as amended from time to time).

ARTICLE XII

Amendment

Except as expressly provided herein, the Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in the Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by the laws of the State of Delaware, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

SIXTH AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS

OF

WILLSCOT HOLDINGS CORPORATION

July 29, 2024

Article 1

Stockholders

1.1.Place of Meetings. Meetings of stockholders of WillScot Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), shall be held at the place, either within or without the State of Delaware, as may be designated by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board of Directors") from time to time; provided, that the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by Section 211(a)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”).

1.2.Annual Meetings. Annual meetings of stockholders shall be held at such date and time as fixed by the Board of Directors for the purpose of electing directors and transacting any other business as may properly come before such meetings.

1.3.Special Meetings. Except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of stockholders for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time only by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, to be held at such date and time as shall be designated in the notice or waiver of notice thereof. Only business within the purposes described in the Corporation's notice of meeting required by Section 1.4 may be conducted at the special meetings. The ability of the stockholders to call a special meeting is specifically denied.

1.4.Notice of Meetings. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a notice of the meeting shall be given that shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by law, the Corporation's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as the same may be amended or restated from time to time, the "Certificate of Incorporation") or these Sixth Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws"), the notice of any meeting shall be given no fewer than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting.

1.5.Postponement; Adjournments. The Board of Directors, acting by resolution, may postpone and reschedule or cancel any previously scheduled annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders. Any annual meeting or special meeting may be adjourned from time to time, to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken or are provided in any other manner permitted by the DGCL. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment, a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.



1.6.Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, at each meeting of stockholders, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares of stock having a majority of the votes that could be cast by the holders of all outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the stockholders present at any duly convened meeting may continue to do business until adjournment notwithstanding any withdrawal from the meeting of holders of shares counted in determining the existence of a quorum. In the absence of a quorum, the chairman of the meeting or the stockholders so present may adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 1.5 of these Bylaws until a quorum shall attend. Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Corporation shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation to vote stock, including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary capacity.

1.7.Organization. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, if any, or in his or her absence by the Vice Chairman of the Board of the Directors, if any, or in his or her absence by the Chief Executive Officer, or in his or her absence by a chairman designated by the Board of Directors, or in the absence of such designation, by a chairman chosen at the meeting. The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in his or her absence the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

1.8.Voting; Proxies.

(a)Generally. Unless otherwise required by law or provided in the Certificate of lncorporation, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote, in person or by proxy, for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.

(b)Voting Matters Other than Elections of Directors. Unless otherwise required by law, the Certificate of lncorporation, or these Bylaws, any matter, other than the election of directors, brought before any meeting of stockholders shall be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a matter submitted for a vote of the stockholders as to which a stockholder approval requirement is applicable under the stockholder approval policy of the Nasdaq Stock Market or any other exchange or quotation system on which the capital stock of the Corporation is quoted or traded, the requirements of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or any provision of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the vote required for approval shall be the requisite vote specified in such stockholder approval policy, Rule 16b-3 or Code provision, as the case may be.

(c)Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law, including Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 14a-19”), filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the Secretary a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date. Any stockholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other stockholders must use a proxy card color other than white, which shall be reserved for the exclusive use by the Board of Directors.
2



1.9.Fixing of Record Dates. 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 entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled 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 may fix, in advance, a record date (which shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors) for stockholders entitled to receive notice of the meeting of stockholders or any other action, which, in the case of a meeting, shall not be more than 60 nor fewer than 10 days before the date of such meeting or, in the case of any other action, shall not be more than 60 days prior to such other action. If the Board of Directors so fixes a date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive notice of a meeting of stockholders, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board of Directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed: 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 day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held; and the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose (as described above) shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto. 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 for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote.

1.10.List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Corporation shall prepare, no later than the 10th day before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting. The Corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of 10 days ending on the day before the meeting date, (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided, that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting; or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the Corporation's principal place of business.

1.11.Notice of Stockholder Business; Nominations.

(a)Annual Meetings of Stockholders. Nominations of one or more individuals to the Board of Directors (each, a "Nomination," and more than one, "Nominations," and the individual who is the subject of a Nomination, a "Nominee") and the proposal of business other than Nominations ("Business") to be considered by the stockholders of the Corporation may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only: pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting or any supplement thereto (provided, however, that reference in the Corporation's notice of meeting to the election of directors or to the election of members of the Board of Directors shall not include or be deemed to include Nominations); by or at the direction of the Board of Directors; or by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record of the Corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 1.11 is received by the Secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.11 and with any other requirements
3


of applicable law. Subclause (3) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make Nominations or submit Business (other than matters properly brought under Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereto) under the Exchange Act and indicated in the Corporation's notice of meeting) before an annual meeting of stockholders.

(b)Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such Business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting (provided, however, that reference in the Corporation's notice of meeting to the election of directors or to the election of members of the Board of Directors shall not include or be deemed to include Nominations).

In addition, the stockholder shall provide an Update at the times and in the forms required by this Section 1.11. The number of nominees a stockholder may nominate for election at the special meeting (or in the case of a stockholder giving the notice on behalf of a beneficial owner, the number of nominees a stockholder may nominate for election at the special meeting on behalf of such beneficial owner) shall not exceed the number of directors to be elected at such special meeting.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.11, if a stockholder (or a qualified representative of such stockholder) does not appear at the annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present a Nomination or Business, such Nomination or Business shall be disregarded and such Nomination or Business shall not be considered or transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation. For purposes of this Section 1.11, to be considered a qualified representative of the stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such stockholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such stockholder to act for such stockholder as proxy at the meeting of stockholders and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting of stockholders.

(2)For purposes of this Section 1.11, "public announcement" shall include disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the SEC.

(3)Nothing in this Section 1.11 shall be deemed to affect (a) the rights or obligations, if any, of stockholders of the Corporation to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereto) under the Exchange Act or (b) the rights, if any, of the holders of any series of preferred stock of the Corporation to elect directors pursuant to any applicable provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation.

(4)A stockholder proposing a Nomination or Nominations or Business shall update and supplement its notice (an "Update") to the Corporation of its intent to propose Nominations or Business at an annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 1.11 shall be true and correct as of the record date for stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and as of the date that is ten business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such Update shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five business days after the record date for stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (in the case of an Update required to be made as of such record date) and not later than eight business days prior to the date for the meeting or, if practicable, any adjournment or postponement thereof (and, if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to the date to which the meeting has been adjourned or postponed) (in the case of an Update required to be made as of ten business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof) (such Updates within such time periods, "Timely Updates"). For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation to update and supplement as set forth in this paragraph or any other Section of these Bylaws shall not limit the Corporation's rights with respect to any deficiencies in any notice provided by a stockholder, extend any applicable deadlines hereunder or enable or be deemed to permit a stockholder who has previously submitted notice hereunder to amend or update any proposal or to submit any new proposal or new or additional Nominee, including by changing or adding matters, business or resolutions proposed to be brought before a meeting of the stockholders.

1.12.Conduct of Meetings. The date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced at the meeting by the chairman of the meeting. The Board of Directors may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board of Directors, the chairman of the meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene and (for any or no reason) to recess and/or adjourn, in the manner provided in Section 1.5 of these Bylaws, the meeting and to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting.

Members of the Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may participate in a meeting thereof by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

2.4 Quorum; Vote Required for Action. At all meetings of the Board of Directors a majority of the Board of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Except in cases in which the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or any agreement binding upon the Corporation otherwise provide, the vote of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors.

2.5 Organization. Meetings of the Board of Directors shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, if any, or in his or her absence by the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, if any, or in his or her absence by the Chief Executive Officer (if also a director), or in their absence by a chairman chosen at the meeting. The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in his or her absence the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

2.6 Chairman, Vice Chairman, and Lead Director of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may, if it so determines, choose a Chairman of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Board of Directors may, if it so determines, choose a Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors from among its members, who shall undertake duties as the Board of Directors may assign. Further, the Board of Directors may, if it so determines, also select a Lead Director of the Board of Directors (the "Lead Director"), who, if any, shall be a director of the Corporation who is not also an officer of the Corporation and who shall undertake duties as the Board of Directors may assign, including, but not limited to, duties otherwise assigned to the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors. Among other duties, the Chairman of the Board of Directors will assist with, manage or delegate to the Lead Director, as appropriate, the following tasks: (i) acting as the principal liaison between the Corporation's independent directors and the Chief Executive Officer; (ii) overseeing and providing guidance with regard to agendas for meetings of the Board of Directors; (iii) leading meetings of the Board of Directors, including executive sessions, but excluding any sessions with only independent directors, which shall be led by the Lead Director for any period in which the Chairman of the Board of Directors is not independent; and (iv) addressing any other responsibilities as the Board of Directors may designate, from time to time.

After an action is taken, the consents shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or such committee. Such filing shall be in paper form if such minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if such minutes are maintained in electronic form.
12



2.8 Fees and Compensation of Directors. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors, or may delegate such authority to an appropriate committee.

2.9 Elections of Directors.

(a)Except as set forth in this Section 2.9, a majority of the votes cast at any meeting of the stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present shall elect directors. For purposes of this provision, a "majority of the votes cast" means that the number of shares voted "for" a director's election exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to that director's election. Votes cast shall include votes "for" and "against" that director's election, in each case and exclude abstentions and broker nonvotes with respect to that director's election. In the event of a Contested Election, directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present. For purposes of this provision, a "Contested Election" is an election of directors of the Corporation as to which the Chairman of the Board of Directors determines that, at the Determination Date, the number of persons properly nominated to serve as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected in such election. The "Determination Date" is: the day after the meeting of the Board of Directors at which the nominees for director of the Board of Directors for such election are approved, when such meeting occurs after the last day on which a stockholder may propose the nomination of a director for election in such election pursuant to these Bylaws; or the day after the last day on which a stockholder may propose the nomination of a director for election in such election pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, when the last day for such a proposal occurs after the meeting of the Board of Directors at which the nominees for director of the Board of Directors for such election are approved, whichever of clause (1) or (2) is applicable. This 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. In all 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.

(b)If, in an election of directors that is not a Contested Election, an incumbent director does not receive a greater number of votes "for" his or her election than votes "against" his or her election, then such incumbent director shall, within five days following the certification of the election results, tender his or her written resignation to the Chairman of the Board of Directors contingent on acceptance by the Board of Directors for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the "Corporate Governance Committee"). The Corporate Governance Committee shall consider such resignation and, within 45 days following the date of the stockholders' meeting at which the election of directors occurred, shall make a recommendation to the Board of Directors concerning the acceptance or rejection of such resignation. In determining its recommendation to the Board of Directors, the Corporate Governance Committee shall consider all factors deemed relevant by the members of the Corporate Governance Committee including, without limitation: the stated reason or reasons (if any) why stockholders voted against such director's reelection; the qualifications of the director (including, for example, whether the director serves on the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee") as an "audit committee financial expert" and whether there are one or more other directors qualified, eligible, and available to serve on the Audit Committee in such capacity); relevant stock exchange listing standards and rules and regulations, including those of the Nasdaq Stock Market and the SEC; and whether the director's resignation from the Board of Directors would be in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders.
13



The Corporate Governance Committee also shall consider a range of possible alternatives concerning the director's tendered resignation as the members of the Corporate Governance Committee deem appropriate, including, without limitation, acceptance of the resignation, rejection of the resignation, or rejection of the resignation coupled with a commitment to seek to address and cure the underlying reasons reasonably believed by the Corporate Governance Committee to have substantially resulted in such director failing to receive the required number of votes for re-election. The Board of Directors shall take formal action on the Corporate Governance Committee's recommendation no later than 90 days following the date of the stockholders' meeting at which the election of directors occurred. In considering the Corporate Governance Committee's recommendation, the Board of Directors shall consider the information, factors, and alternatives considered by the Corporate Governance Committee and such additional information, factors, and alternatives as the Board of Directors deems relevant in its sole discretion. No director who, in accordance with these provisions, is required to tender his or her resignation shall participate in the Corporate Governance Committee's deliberations or recommendation, or in the deliberations or determination of the Board of Directors, with respect to accepting or rejecting his or her resignation as a director.

If a majority of the members of the Corporate Governance Committee fail to receive the required number of votes for re-election, then the Board of Directors will establish an ad hoc committee composed of independent directors then serving on the Board of Directors who were elected at the stockholders' meeting at which the election occurred (the "Ad Hoc Committee"), consisting of such number of directors as the Board of Directors may determine to be appropriate, solely for the purpose of considering and making a recommendation to the Board with respect to the tendered resignations. The Ad Hoc Committee shall serve in place of the Corporate Governance Committee and perform the Corporate Governance Committee's duties for purposes of these provisions. Following the decision of the Board of Directors on the Corporate Governance Committee's recommendation, the Corporation, within four business days after such decision is made, shall publicly disclose, in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC, the decision of the Board of Directors, together with an explanation of the process by which the decision was made and, if applicable, the reason or reasons of the Board of Directors for rejecting the tendered resignation.

(c)If a director's resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 2.9, if a nominee for director is not elected and the nominee is not an incumbent director whose term would otherwise have expired at the time of the election if a successor had been elected or if a director is no longer entitled to serve as a director, then, subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board may reduce the size of the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 2.11 or such vacancy may be filled only by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.

4.2 Powers and Duties of Executive Officers.

The authority granted herein may be exercised either by such person directly or by any other person authorized to do so by proxy or power of attorney duly executed by such person having the authority.

Article 5

5.1 Certificates.

(a)The shares of the Corporation shall 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 stock shall be uncertificated shares. The shares of the common stock of the Corporation shall be registered on the books of the Corporation in the order in which they shall be issued. Any certificates for shares of the common stock, and any other shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented by certificates, shall be numbered and shall be signed by any two of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the President, any Vice President, the Secretary, any Assistant Secretary, the Treasurer, any Assistant Treasurer, or any other authorized officers of the Corporation. Any or all of the signatures on a certificate may be a facsimile signature. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he, she or it were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of uncertificated stock, the Corporation shall send, or cause to be sent, to the record owner thereof a notice in writing or by electronic transmission setting forth the name of the Corporation, the name of the stockholder, the number and class of shares and such other information as is required by law, including Section 151(f) of the DGCL. Any stock certificates issued and any notices given shall include such other information and legends as shall be required by law or necessary to give effect to any applicable transfer, voting or similar restrictions.

(b)No certificate representing shares of stock shall be issued until the full amount of consideration therefor has been paid, except as otherwise permitted by law.

5.2 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Stock Certificates; Issuance of New Certificates. The Corporation may issue a new certificate of stock in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Corporation may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond
18


sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate. If shares represented by a stock certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed have become uncertificated shares, the Corporation may, in lieu of issuing a new certificate, cause such shares to be reflected on its books as uncertificated shares and may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate.

5.3 Dividends. The Board of Directors, subject to any restrictions contained in the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law, may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of the Corporation's capital stock. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property, or in shares of the Corporation's capital stock, subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation. The Board of Directors may set apart out of any of the funds of the Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve. Such purposes shall include but not be limited to equalizing dividends, repairing or maintaining any property of the Corporation, and meeting contingencies.

5.4 Transfer of Shares.

(a)Transfers of shares shall be made upon the books of the Corporation only by the holder of record thereof, or by a duly authorized agent, transferee or legal representative and in the case of certificated shares, upon the surrender to the Corporation of the certificate or certificates for such shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books.

(b)The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share or shares of stock as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any legal, equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such share or shares of stock on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise expressly provided by law.

5.5 Transfer Agent; Registrar. The Board of Directors may appoint a transfer agent and one or more co-transfer agents and registrar and one or more co-registrars and may make, or authorize any such agent to make, all such rules and regulations deemed expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration of shares of stock of the Corporation.

Article 6

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

6.1 Right of 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, any person (a "Covered Person") who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she 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, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including
19


service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred by such Covered Person. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.3, the corporation shall be required to indemnify a Covered Person in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Covered Person only if the commencement of such proceeding (or part thereof) by the Covered Person was authorized in the specific case by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

6.2 Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law pay the expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that, to the extent required by law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the Covered Person to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article 6 or otherwise.

6.3 Claims. If a claim for indemnification under this Article 6 (following the final disposition of such proceeding) is not paid in full within sixty days after the Corporation has received a claim therefor by the Covered Person, or if a claim for any advancement of expenses under this Article 6 is not paid in full within thirty days after the Corporation has received a statement or statements requesting such amounts to be advanced, the Covered Person shall thereupon (but not before) be entitled to file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim. If successful in whole or in part, the Covered Person shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim to the fullest extent permitted by law. In any such action, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the Covered Person is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law.

6.4 Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any Covered Person by this Article 6 shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such Covered Person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

6.5 Other Sources. The Corporation's obligation, if any, to indemnify or to advance expenses to any Covered Person who was or is serving at its request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity shall be reduced by any amount such Covered Person may collect as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or non-profit enterprise.

6.6 Amendment or Repeal. Any right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses of any Covered Person arising hereunder shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to or repeal of these Bylaws after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought.

6.7 Other Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. This Article 6 shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Covered Persons when and as authorized by appropriate corporate action.

Article 7

Miscellaneous

7.2 Fiscal Year; Headquarters and Principal Executive Office.

(a)The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be the calendar year, unless otherwise determined by resolution of the Board of Directors.

7.4 Notices.

(a)Notice to Directors. Whenever under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws notice is required to be given to any director, such notice shall be given: in writing and sent by mail, hand delivery or by a nationally recognized delivery service; by means of facsimile telecommunication or other form of electronic transmission; or by oral notice given personally or by telephone. A notice to a director will be deemed given and shall be timely as follows: (A) if given by hand delivery, orally, or by telephone, when actually received by the director at least 24 hours before the time of the meeting; (B) if sent through the United States mail, after being deposited in the United States mail, with postage and fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the director at the director's address appearing on the records of the Corporation at least four days prior to the meeting; (C) if sent for delivery by a nationally recognized delivery service, if deposited for next day delivery with an overnight delivery service, with fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the director at the director's address appearing on the records of the Corporation at least two days prior to the meeting; (D) if sent by facsimile telecommunication, when sent to the facsimile transmission number for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation at least 24 hours prior to the time of the meeting; (E) if sent by electronic mail, when sent to the electronic mail address for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation at least 24 hours prior to the time of the meeting; or (F) if sent by any other form of electronic transmission, when sent to the address, location or number (as applicable) for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation at least 24 hours prior to the time of the meeting.

(b)Notice to Stockholders. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws may be given in writing directed to the stockholder's mailing address (or by electronic transmission directed to the stockholder's electronic mail address, as applicable) as it appears on the records of the Corporation. Notice shall be given (i) if mailed, when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, (ii) if delivered by
21


courier service, the earlier of when the notice is received or left at the stockholder's address, or (iii) if given by electronic mail, when directed to such stockholder's electronic mail address (unless the stockholder has notified the Corporation in writing or by electronic transmission of an objection to receiving notice by electronic mail or such notice is prohibited by the DGCL to be given by electronic transmission). A notice by electronic mail must include a prominent legend that the communication is an important notice regarding the Corporation. A notice by electronic mail will include any files attached thereto and any information hyperlinked to a website if such electronic mail includes the contact information of an officer or agent of the corporation who is available to assist with accessing such files or information. Any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws provided by means of electronic transmission (other than any such notice given by electronic mail) may only be given in a form consented to by such stockholder, and any such notice by such means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to be given as provided by the DGCL.

(c)Electronic Transmission. "Electronic transmission" means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, including the use of, or participation in, one or more electronic networks or databases (including one or more distributed networks or databases), that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process, including but not limited to transmission by telex, facsimile telecommunication, electronic mail, telegram and cablegram.

(d)Notice to Stockholders Sharing Same Address. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively by the Corporation to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a single written notice to stockholders who share an address if consented to by the stockholders at that address to whom such notice is given. A stockholder may revoke such stockholder's consent by delivering written notice of such revocation to the Corporation. Any stockholder who fails to object in writing to the Corporation within 60 days of having been given written notice by the Corporation of its intention to send such a single written notice shall be deemed to have consented to receiving such single written notice.

(e)Exceptions to Notice Requirements. Whenever notice is required to be given, under the DGCL, 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 that 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. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful.

Whenever notice is required to be given by the Corporation, under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to any stockholder to whom: (1) notice of two consecutive annual meetings of stockholders and all notices of stockholders' meetings during the period between such two consecutive annual meetings; or (2) all, and at least two, payments (if sent by first-class mail) of dividends or interest on securities during a 12-month period, have been mailed addressed to such
22


stockholder at such stockholder's address as shown on the records of the Corporation and have been returned undeliverable, the giving of such notice to such stockholder shall not be required. Any action or meeting that shall be taken or held without notice to such stockholder shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. If any such stockholder shall deliver to the Corporation a written notice setting forth such stockholder's then current address, the requirement that notice be given to such stockholder shall be reinstated. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate need not state that notice was not given to persons to whom notice was not required to be given pursuant to Section 230(b) of the DGCL. The exception in Section 7.4(e)(1) of the first sentence of this paragraph to the requirement that notice be given shall not be applicable to any notice returned as undeliverable if the notice was given by electronic transmission.

7.5 Waiver of Notice of Meetings of Stockholders, Directors and Committees. Whenever any notice is required to be given under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, a written waiver of such notice, signed before or after the date of such meeting by the person or persons entitled to said notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to said notice, shall be deemed equivalent to such required notice. All such waivers shall be kept with the books of the Corporation. Attendance at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a person attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting was not lawfully called or convened.

7.6 Interested Directors; Quorum. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers are directors or officers, or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof that authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his, her or their votes are counted for such purpose, if: the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors, a committee thereof, or the stockholders. All directors, including interested directors, may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a committee that authorizes the contract or transaction.

7.7 Form of Records. Any records administered by or on behalf of the Corporation in the regular course of its business, including its stock ledger, books of account, and minute books, may be kept on, or by means of, or be in the form of, any information storage device, method, or one or more electronic networks or databases (including one or more distributed electronic networks or databases), provided that the records so kept can be converted into clearly legible paper form within a reasonable time. The Corporation shall convert any records so kept into clearly legible paper form upon the request of any person entitled to inspect such records pursuant to any provision of the DGCL. When records are kept in such manner, a clearly legible paper form prepared from or by means of the information storage device, method, or one or more electronic networks or databases (including one or more distributed electronic networks or databases) shall be valid and admissible in evidence, and
23


accepted for all other purposes, to the same extent as an original paper record of the same information would have been, provided the paper form accurately portrays the record.

7.8 Amendments.

(a) The Board of Directors shall have the power to amend, supplement or repeal these Bylaws of, or adopt new bylaws for, the Corporation. Any such bylaws, or any alternation, amendment, supplement or repeal of these Bylaws, may be subsequently amended, supplemented or repealed by the stockholders as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation.

7.9 Federal Forum Selection. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 7.9.
