Section 12.

A.            Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

1.             Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors and the proposal of business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (a) pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (b) by

3

or at the direction of the board of directors or (c) by any stockholder of the corporation who (i) was a stockholder of record or, solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, a beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the corporation at the time of notice is given by such stockholder pursuant to this Section 12, (ii) is entitled to vote at the meeting or, solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, is a beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the corporation at any time during the period commencing as of the close of business on the record date for such meeting and ending as of the close of business on April 15, 2008 (the second (2nd) business day preceding the date such meeting is currently scheduled for); and (iii) complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 12.

2.             For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (c) of paragraph (A)(1) of this Section 12, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the corporation and such other business must otherwise be a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that (I) if either (x) the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than thirty (30) days after such anniversary date, or (y) no annual meeting of stockholders was held in the previous year, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (A) the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting and (B) the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the date on which notice of the date of the meeting is given to stockholders or made public, whichever occurs first, and (II) with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not later than the close of business on April 15, 2008 (the second (2nd) business day preceding the date such meeting is currently scheduled for). Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director, (i) all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies

4

for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 14a-11 thereunder; (ii) such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected; and (iii) a statement whether such person, if elected, but who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” in any uncontested election for directors, intends to tender, promptly following such person’s election or re-election, his or her resignation to the corporate governance committee, in accordance with Article III, Section 15; (b) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the bylaws of the corporation, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made; (c) as to a record stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such record stockholder, as they appear on the corporation’s books, and of such beneficial owner, (ii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such record stockholder and such beneficial owner, and (iii) a representation that the stockholder giving the notice is a holder of record of stock of the corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such business or nomination; (d) solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, as to a beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the corporation giving such notice, (i) the name and address of such beneficial stockholder, (ii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the corporation which are owned beneficially by such beneficial owner, and (iii) a representation that the stockholder giving the notice is a beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the corporation, and that such beneficial owner will appear in person at the meeting (including by way of attendance by such beneficial owner or his, her, or its agent as duly authorized proxy) to propose such business or nomination; and (e) as to a record stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (or solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, as to the beneficial owner giving the notice), a representation whether

5

such record stockholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends or is part of a group which intends (A) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the corporation’s outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal or elect the nominee and/or (B) otherwise to solicit proxies from stockholders in support of such proposal or nomination. Solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, if the notice contemplated by this Section 12 is given by a beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the corporation, then such notice shall be accompanied by documentary evidence of beneficial ownership of common stock of the corporation and shall state that the documentary evidence is a true and correct copy of what it purports to be. The foregoing notice requirements shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder if the stockholder has notified the corporation of his or her intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting in compliance with Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereof) promulgated under the Exchange Act and such stockholder’s proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the corporation to solicit proxies for such annual meeting. The corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the corporation.

3.             Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 12 to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the board of directors of the corporation is increased and there is no public announcement by the corporation naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased board of directors at least one hundred five (105) days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders (or, if the annual meeting is held more than thirty (30) days before or thirty (30) days after such anniversary date, at least one hundred five (105) days prior to such annual meeting), a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 12 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive office of the corporation not later than the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the corporation.

4.             Solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, the term “stockholder,” as used in this Section 12 as that term relates to giving the notice

6

contemplated by this Section 12, refers to both any stockholder of record and any beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the corporation unless the context specifically refers to a “record stockholder” or “stockholder of record.” Nothing in this Section 12 shall be construed to confer upon any persons other than stockholders of record as of the record date for any meeting of stockholders of the corporation the right to vote, in person or by proxy, at such meeting.

B.            Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting (a) by or at the direction of the board of directors or (b) provided that the board of directors has determined that directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time notice provided for in this Section 12 is delivered to the secretary of the corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and upon such election, who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 12. If the corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the board of directors, any such stockholder entitled to vote in such election of directors may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be), for election to such position(s) as specified in the corporation’s notice of meeting, if the stockholder’s notice required by paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 12 shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such special meeting and not later than the later of (x) the close of business of the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such special meeting or (y) the close of business of the fifteenth (15th) day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of such special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the board of directors to be elected at such meeting. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

C.            General.

1.             Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12 shall be eligible to be elected at an annual or special meeting of

7

stockholders of the corporation to serve as directors and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12. Except as otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, the chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty (a) to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12 (including whether the stockholder or beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made, solicited (or is part of a group which solicited) or did not so solicit, as the case may be, proxies in support of such stockholder’s nominee or proposal in compliance with such stockholder’s representation as required by Section 12(A)(2)(c)(iii) or 12(A)(2)(d), as the case may be) and (b) if any proposed nomination or business was not made or proposed in compliance with this Section 12 (including, solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, whether the proponent of such nomination or business was a stockholder of record or a beneficial owner of shares of common stock of the corporation at the required time pursuant to Section 12(A)(1)(c)), to declare that such nomination shall be disregarded or that such proposed business shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12(C), if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the annual or special meeting of stockholders of the corporation, in person or by proxy, to present a nomination or business, such nomination shall be disregarded and such proposed business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the corporation.

2.             The board of directors of the corporation shall be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it shall deem necessary, appropriate, convenient or desirable. Subject to such rules and regulations of the board of directors, if any, the chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures, and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are necessary, appropriate, convenient or desirable for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, establishing (i) an agenda or order of business for the meeting, (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, (iii) limitations on participation in such meeting to (w)

8

stockholders of record of the corporation, (x) solely with respect to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008, beneficial owners of shares of common stock of the corporation who have provided proper and timely notice of a nomination or other business to be brought before such meeting in accordance with Section 12(A)(2), (y) duly authorized and constituted proxies of the persons specified in clauses (x) and (y) of this Section 12(C)(2)(iii), and (z) such other persons as the chairman shall permit, (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof, (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comment by participants, (vi) regulation of the opening and closing of the polls for balloting on matters which are to be voted on by ballot, and (vii) the authority to conclude or adjourn the meeting with or without stockholder approval. Unless, and to the extent, otherwise determined by the board of directors or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

3.             For purposes of this Section 12, (a) “public announcement” and “was made public” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; (b) the “close of business” on a particular day shall mean 5:00 p.m. local time in New York, New York on such day; and (c) any notice required to be delivered hereunder shall be valid only if delivered to the corporate headquarters of the corporation, currently located at 622 Broadway, 6th Floor New York, New York, to the attention of the General Counsel of the corporation.

4.             Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth herein. Nothing in this Section 12 shall be deemed to affect any rights (i) of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or (ii) of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors pursuant to any applicable provisions of the certificate of incorporation.

Section 13.             Prior to the holding of each annual or special meeting of the stockholders, one or more inspectors of election to serve thereat shall be appointed by the board of directors, or, if the board of directors shall not have made such appointment, by the chairman of the

9

meeting, the chief executive officer or the president. If there shall be a failure to appoint an inspector, or if, at any such meeting, the inspector or inspectors so appointed shall be absent or shall fail to act or the office shall become vacated, the chairman of the meeting may, and at the request of a stockholder present in person and entitled to vote at such meeting shall, appoint such inspector or inspectors of election to act thereat. The inspector or inspectors of election so appointed to act at any meeting of the stockholders, before entering upon the discharge of their duties, shall be sworn faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting, with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability, and the oath so taken shall be subscribed by such inspector. Such inspector or inspectors of election shall take charge of the polls, and, after the voting on any question, shall make a certificate of the results of the vote taken. No director or candidate for the office of director shall act as an inspector of an election of directors. Inspectors need not be stockholders.

ARTICLE III.

DIRECTORS

Section 1.               The number of directors which shall constitute the whole board shall be not less than one nor more than eight.  Within such specified limits, the number of directors shall be determined by resolution of the board of directors or by the stockholders at the annual meeting or by written consent.  The directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of the stockholders, except as provided in Section 2 of this Article III, and each director elected shall hold office until his successor is elected and qualified.  Directors need not be stockholders.

Section 2.               Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and the directors so chosen shall hold office until the next annual election and until their successors are duly elected and shall qualify, unless sooner displaced.  If there are no directors in office, then an election of directors may be held in the manner provided by statute.  If, at the time of filling any vacancy or any newly created directorship, the directors then in office shall constitute less than a majority of the whole board (as constituted immediately prior to any such increase), the Court of Chancery may, upon application of any stockholder or stockholders holding at

10

least ten percent of the total number of the shares at the time outstanding having the right to vote for such directors, summarily order an election to be held to fill any such vacancies or newly created directorships, or to replace the directors chosen by the directors then in office.

Section 3.               The business of the corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of its board of directors which may exercise all such powers of the corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the certificate of incorporation or by these bylaws directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Section 4.               The board of directors of the corporation may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or without the State of Delaware.

Section 5.               The first meeting of each newly elected board of directors shall be held at such time and place as shall be fixed by the vote of the stockholders at the annual meeting or by written consent and no notice of such meeting shall be necessary to the newly elected directors in order legally to constitute the meeting, provided a quorum shall be present. In the event of the failure of the stockholders to fix the time or place of such first meeting of the newly elected board of directors, or in the event such meeting is not held at the time and place so fixed by the stockholders, the meeting may be held at such time and place as shall be specified in a notice given as hereinafter provided for special meetings of the board of directors, or as shall be specified in a written waiver signed by all of the directors.

Section 6.               Regular meetings of the board of directors may be held without notice at such time and at such place as shall from time to time be determined by the board.

Section 7.               Special meetings of the board may be called by the executive chairman, non-executive chairman, chief executive officer or president on reasonable notice to each director, either personally or by mail or by facsimile or by electronic transmission; special meetings shall be called by the executive chairman, non-executive chairman, chief executive officer, president or secretary in like manner and on like notice on the written request of only one director.

Section 8.               At all meetings of the board a majority of the directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at

11

which there is a quorum shall be the act of the board of directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by statute or by the certificate of incorporation.  If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the board of directors the directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

Section 9.              Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the board of directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the board or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the board or committee.

Section 10.            Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, members of the board of directors, or any committee designated by the board of directors, may participate in a meeting of the board of directors, or any committee, by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS

Section 11.            The board of directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole board, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the corporation.  The board 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.

Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the board of directors, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the board of directors in the management of the business and affairs of the corporation, and may authorize the seal of the corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to amending the certificate of incorporation, (except that a committee may, to the extent authorized in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of shares of stock adopted by the board of directors as provided in Section 151(a) fix any of the preferences or rights of such shares relating to dividends, redemption, dissolution, any distribution of assets of the corporation or the conversion into, or the exchange of such shares for, shares of any other class or classes or any other series of the same or any

12

other class or classes of stock of the corporation) adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the corporation’s property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the corporation or a revocation of a dissolution, or amending the bylaws of the corporation; and, unless the resolution or the certificate of incorporation expressly so provide, no such committee shall have the power or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock or to adopt a certificate of ownership and merger.  Such committee or committees shall have such name or names as may be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the board of directors.

Section 12.            Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the board of directors when required.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Section 13.            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.  The directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the board of directors and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the board of directors or a stated salary as director.  No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.  Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for attending committee meetings.

REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS

Section 14.            Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or by law, any director or the entire board of directors may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders of a majority of shares entitled to vote at an election of directors.

Section 15.            In an uncontested election of directors (that is, at any meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected and with respect to which the number of nominees, as of the last day by which stockholders may submit notice to nominate a person for election as a director, does not exceed the number of directors to be elected), any nominee for director who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” at any such meeting at which a quorum is present, such director shall promptly tender his or her resignation to the corporate governance

13

committee (the “Committee”) (following certification of the stockholder vote) for consideration in accordance with the following procedures. Abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to a director’s election shall not be counted.

The Committee shall promptly consider such resignation and shall recommend to the board of directors the action to be taken with respect to such offered resignation, which may include (i) accepting the resignation; (ii) maintaining the director but addressing what the board of directors believes to be the underlying cause of the withheld votes; (iii) determining that the director will not be re-nominated in the future for election; or (iv) rejecting the resignation. The Committee shall consider all relevant factors including, without limitation, (a) the stated reasons why votes were withheld from such director, if any; (b) any alternatives for curing the underlying cause of the withheld votes; (c) the tenure and qualifications of the director; (d) the director’s past and expected future contributions to the corporation; (e) the corporation’s director criteria and the Committee’s policies regarding qualifications of directors; (f) the Committee’s governance guidelines; and (g) the overall composition of the board of directors, including whether accepting the resignation would cause the corporation to fail to meet any applicable regulatory or stock exchange listing requirements.

Subject to applicable legal and regulatory requirements, the board of directors shall act on the Committee’s recommendation no later than 90 days following the date of the certification of the election results for the stockholders’ meeting when the election occurred. In considering the Committee’s recommendation, the board of directors shall consider the factors considered by the Committee and such additional information and factors the board of directors believes to be relevant. Following the board of directors’ decision, the corporation shall promptly disclose in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission its decision regarding the tendered resignation (providing an explanation of the process by which the decision was reached and, if applicable, the reasons for rejecting the tendered resignation).

If any tendered resignation is accepted, the Committee shall recommend to the board of directors whether to fill such vacancy or vacancies or to reduce the size of the board of directors.

Any director who tenders his or her resignation pursuant to this provision will not participate in the Committee’s recommendation or the board of directors’ consideration regarding whether

14

or not to accept the tendered resignation. Prior to voting, the board of directors will afford the director an opportunity to provide any information or statement that he or she deems relevant. If a majority of the members of the Committee received a greater number of votes “withheld” from their election than votes “for” their election at the same uncontested election for directors, then the remaining directors who are on the board of directors and who did not receive a greater number of votes “withheld” from their election than votes “for” their election at such election would consider the matter directly or may appoint a board of directors committee among themselves solely for the purpose of considering the tendered resignations that would make the recommendation to the board of directors whether to accept or reject them.  If all of the members of the board of directors received a greater number of votes “withheld” from their election than votes “for” their election at the same uncontested election for directors, then the entire board of directors shall consider each tendered resignation separately, with each director recusing himself from the deliberation and voting with respect to the acceptance or rejection of such director’s resignation.
