part thereof) of these Bylaws shall be construed to be consistent with such other provision or

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNIFICATION
Section 1.Right to Indemnification and Advancement. Each person who was or is
made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including
involvement, without limitation, as a witness) in any actual or threatened action, suit, or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (a “proceeding”), by reason
of the fact that he or she 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,
manager, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture,
trust, or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an
“indemnitee”), 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 as a director or officer, shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL,
as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against all expense, liability, and loss (including
attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, excise taxes, or penalties under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time (“ERISA”)
and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or
suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as
to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to
the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors, and administrators; provided, however, that,
except as provided in Section 2 of this ARTICLE VII with respect to proceedings to enforce
rights to indemnification and advance of expenses (as defined herein), the Corporation shall
indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by
such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized in the specific case by
the Board of the Corporation. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred herein, an
indemnitee shall also have the right, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, to be paid by the
Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final
disposition (an “advance of expenses”); provided, however, that if and to the extent that the
DGCL requires, an advance of expenses shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of
an undertaking (an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so
advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no
further right to appeal (a “final adjudication”) that such indemnitee is not entitled to be
indemnified for such expenses under Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII or otherwise. The
Corporation may also, by action of its Board, provide indemnification and advancement to
employees and agents of the Corporation. Any reference to an officer of the Corporation in this
ARTICLE VII shall be deemed to refer exclusively to the Chair, CEO, President, CFO,
Secretary, and Treasurer appointed pursuant to ARTICLE IV, and to any Vice President,
Assistant Secretary, assistant treasurer, or other officer of the Corporation appointed by the
Board or the CEO pursuant to ARTICLE IV of these Bylaws, and any reference to an officer of
