The authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each series of Preferred Stock shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following:

(i)the number of shares constituting such series and the distinctive designation of that series;

(iii)whether such series shall have voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights;

(i)Voting Rights. Each record holder of Common Stock shall be entitled at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, with respect to each share of Common Stock held by such holder as of the applicable record date, to one (1) vote per share in person or by proxy on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. There shall be no cumulative voting.

Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions in cash, property or shares of stock of the Corporation as may be declared thereon by the Board of Directors from time to time out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor.

(iv)Preemptive Rights. The holders of Common Stock shall have no preemptive right to subscribe for any shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation whether now or hereafter authorized.

Article 6

At the time this Certificate of Incorporation becomes effective, the Board of Directors of the Corporation shall consist of three (3) directors, but may be increased or decreased from time to time by resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office; provided that the number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be not less than three (3). The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II and Class III, until the Corporation’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2025. Class I directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023 for a one-year term, and they and any successors shall stand for re-election at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2024; Class II directors shall serve out their current three-year terms, and they and any successors shall stand for re-election to a one-year term at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2024; Class III directors shall serve out their current three-year terms, and they and any successors shall stand for re-election to a one-year term at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2025. At each annual meeting of the stockholders commencing with the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2025, each director shall be elected for a one-year term. So long as the Board of Directors is classified, each class shall consist, as nearly as may be possible, of one-third of the total number of directors constituting the entire Board of Directors, and if the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes, for such period as they may continue to exist, so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any additional director of any class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case will a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. Unless and except to the extent that the By-Laws of the Corporation shall so require, the election of directors of the Corporation need not be by written ballot.

Article 7

In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors of the Corporation is expressly authorized to make, alter or repeal the By-Laws of the Corporation.

Article 8

Article 12

No director of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended.

Article 13

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, and advance expenses to any 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, 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 maintained or sponsored by the Corporation (a “Covered Person”), 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 the By-Laws (as the same may provide from time to time), the Corporation shall be required to indemnify

a Covered Person in connection with a proceeding (or a part thereof) commenced by such Covered Person only if the commencement of such proceeding (or part thereof) by the Covered Person was authorized by the By-Laws, in any written agreement with the Corporation, or in the specific case by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that if a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of an action, suit or proceeding) or advancement of expenses is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after a written demand therefor by the Covered Person has been received by the Corporation, the Covered Person may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim, and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. Nothing contained in this ARTICLE THIRTEEN shall affect any rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which directors, officers, employees or agents of the Corporation otherwise may be entitled under the By-Laws, any written agreement with the Corporation or otherwise. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this ARTICLE THIRTEEN with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this ARTICLE THIRTEEN shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a Covered Person existing at the time of, or increase the liability of any Covered Person with respect to any acts or omissions of such Covered Person occurring prior to, such amendment, modification or repeal.

Article 14
