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

On May 30, 2025, Ryan Specialty Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the

“Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting the stockholders voted to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated

Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate”), to:

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to declassify the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and phase-in annual

director elections;

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to replace the plurality voting standard with a majority voting standard in

uncontested director elections;

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to eliminate the springing supermajority voting standard with respect to

the removal of a director from the Board thereby retaining stockholders' power to remove directors, with or

without cause, by a majority standard;

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to provide for a specific outside date, September 30, 2029, by which the

ten-to-one vote disparity of the Class B common stock to the Class A common stock will sunset;

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to provide stockholders with the ability to take action by written consent;

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to provide stockholders with the ability to call special meetings of

stockholders;

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to eliminate the springing supermajority voting standard with respect to

the amendment of the Company's bylaws and certain provisions of the Company's certificate of incorporation,

thereby retaining the majority standard;

•approve an amendment to the Certificate to provide for the exculpation of certain officers of the Company to the

fullest extent provided under Delaware law; and

•approve certain non-substantive amendments to the Certificate to reflect the previous name change, remove the

initial number of directors, eliminate obsolete provisions and incorporate other administrative modifications as set

forth in the Certificate.

Detailed descriptions of the foregoing amendments to the Certificate were set forth in management proposals two through

ten in the Company’s definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on

April 17, 2025 (the “Proxy Statement”), which descriptions are incorporated herein by reference and are qualified in their

entirety by reference to the full text of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed herewith as

Exhibit 3.1. These amendments to the Certificate became effective upon filing the Amended and Restated Certificate of

Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 30, 2025.

Additionally, the Board approved an amendment and restatement of the Company’s bylaws (the “Bylaws”), which became

effective concurrently with the effectiveness of the Certificate. The Bylaws were amended and restated to:

•adopt qualifications and procedures specifying the ownership percentage and information requirements that a

stockholder or stockholders must provide to exercise their right to call a special meeting;

•implement a majority voting standard for the election of directors in uncontested director elections, with a

plurality voting standard applying to contested director elections;

•adopt a market standard resignation policy with respect to director nominees consistent with the majority voting

standard, so that an incumbent director who does not receive the requisite affirmative majority of the votes cast for

his or her re-election will be required to promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board, subject to acceptance

by the Board; and

•Make certain conforming and administrative changes.

The foregoing description of the Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with,

the complete text of the Bylaws, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.2, the terms of which

are incorporated herein by reference.

LLC Operating Agreement (defined below) and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the LLC Operating

Agreement, as applicable, have the right to exchange the LLC Units held by them for fully paid and nonassessable

shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis or, at the Corporation’s election, for cash. Upon the

exchange of an LLC Unit for one share of Class A Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of

the LLC Operating Agreement, the exchanging holder shall automatically and without further action on the part of

the Corporation or any holder of Class B Common Stock transfer an equivalent number of Class B Common Stock

to the Corporation, which may not be reissued and shall be automatically retired and cancelled and shall no longer

be issued or outstanding. The Corporation shall, at all times when any shares of Class B Common Stock and LLC

Units shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock

such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exchange of

all outstanding LLC Units into shares of Class A Common Stock in accordance with the terms of LLC Operating

Agreement. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock shall not be

sufficient to effect the exchange of all outstanding LLC Units, the Corporation shall take such corporate actions

within its power as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to cause this Restated Certificate to be amended

so as to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock to such number as shall be sufficient

for such purpose. Following the transfer of all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock to the Corporation

pursuant to this Section 3(e), the Corporation shall not issue further shares of Class B Common Stock. “LLC

Operating Agreement” means that certain Third Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of New Ryan

Specialty, LLC, dated as of July 5, 2023, as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time.

(f) Automatic Transfer.

(i) No share of Class B Common Stock may be sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred, other than in connection

with (A) the exchange of an LLC Unit as set forth in Section 3(e) of ARTICLE FOUR hereof and in accordance

with the terms and conditions of the LLC Operating Agreement, (B) the transfer of an LLC Unit by a holder of LLC

Units to certain permitted transferees pursuant to the terms of the LLC Operating Agreement and (C) transfers to the

Corporation permitted by the LLC Operating Agreement. In the event that any outstanding shares of Class B

Common Stock are sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred other than as provided in the foregoing clauses (A), (B)

and (C), or such outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock shall otherwise cease to be held by a holder of a

corresponding number, based on the exchange rate then in effect, of LLC Units (including a transferee of a LLC

Unit) for any reason, such shares of Class B Common Stock shall upon such sale, exchange or other transfer, or

upon ceasing to be held by such holder, automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or

any holder of Class B Common Stock be transferred to the Corporation for no consideration and may not be reissued

and thereupon shall be automatically retired and cancelled and shall no longer be issued or outstanding.

(ii) [Reserved].

(g) No Preemptive or Subscription Rights. No holder of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to preemptive or

subscription rights other than as may be set forth in an agreement to which the Corporation is a party.

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

Section 2. Number of Directors. Subject to any rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then

outstanding to elect additional directors under specified circumstances or otherwise and to that certain Director

Nomination Agreement, dated on or about July 26, 2021 (as amended and/or restated or supplemented in accordance

with its terms, the “Nomination Agreement”), the number of directors which shall constitute the Board of Directors

shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution of the Board.

Section 3. Election of Directors. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock outstanding,

directors shall be elected by the vote of the majority of the votes cast in favor of such nominee’s election at any

meeting of stockholders held to elect directors at which a quorum is present; provided, however, that, if the number

of nominees for director exceeds the number of directors to be elected, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the

votes cast at any meeting of stockholders held to elect directors at which a quorum is present. For purposes of this

Section 3, a majority of the votes cast means that the number of shares voted “for” a nominee must exceed the

number of shares voted “against” that nominee.

Section 4. Term of Office. Prior to the date of the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, the directors of the

Corporation, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, shall be divided

into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, hereby designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Each

director elected at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders shall be elected for a term expiring at the 2027 annual

meeting of stockholders. Each director elected at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders shall be elected for a term

expiring at the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders. At the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders and at each annual

meeting of stockholders thereafter, all directors shall be elected for a term expiring at the next annual meeting of

stockholders and shall no longer be divided into three classes. Each director shall hold office until the annual

meeting of stockholders for the year in which such director’s term expires and a successor is duly elected and

qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Nothing in this Restated Certificate shall preclude a

director from serving consecutive terms. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the

Corporation (as amended and/or restated, the “Bylaws”) shall so provide.

Section 5. Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred

Stock then outstanding and except as otherwise set forth in the Nomination Agreement, newly created directorships

resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors or any vacancies in the Board of Directors

resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal from office or any other cause may be filled only by

resolution of a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director,

and may not be filled in any other manner. A director elected or appointed to fill a vacancy shall serve, (i) prior to

the date of the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, for the unexpired term of the class of his or her predecessor in

office and (ii) from and after the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, until the next succeeding annual meeting of

stockholders, and, in each case, until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death,

resignation or removal. A director elected or appointed to fill a position resulting from an increase in the number of

directors shall hold office (i) prior to the date of the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, until the next election of

the class for which such director shall have been elected or appointed and (ii) from and after the 2028 annual

meeting of stockholders, until the next succeeding annual meeting of stockholders and, in each case, until his or her

successor is elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the

authorized number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

Section 6. Removal and Resignation of Directors. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Restated Certificate,

directors may be removed with or without cause upon the affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the

voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in an

election of directors, voting together as a single class (“Voting Stock”) at a meeting of the Corporation’s

stockholders called for that purpose. Any director may resign at any time upon notice to the Corporation.

Section 7. Rights of Holders of Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the provisions of this ARTICLE FIVE, whenever

the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock shall have the right, voting separately or together by series, to

elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and

other features of such directorship shall be subject to the rights of such series of Preferred Stock. During any period

when the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more series,

have the right to elect additional directors, then upon commencement and for the duration of the period during which

such right continues: (i) the then otherwise total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall

automatically be increased by such specified number of directors, and the holders of such Preferred Stock shall be

entitled to elect the additional directors so provided for or fixed pursuant to said provisions, and (ii) each such

additional director shall serve until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such

director’s right to hold such office terminates pursuant to said provisions, whichever occurs earlier, subject to his or

her earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. Except as otherwise provided by the Board of Directors in

the resolution or resolutions establishing such series, whenever the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having

such right to elect additional directors are divested of such right pursuant to the provisions of such stock, the terms

of office of all such additional directors elected by the holders of such stock, or elected to fill any vacancies resulting

from the death, resignation, disqualification or removal of such additional directors, shall forthwith terminate (in

which case each such director thereupon shall cease to be qualified as, and shall cease to be, a director) and the total

authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be reduced accordingly.

Section 8. Advance Notice. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of business

to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the

manner provided in the Bylaws.

ARTICLE EIGHT

Section 1. Certain Acknowledgments. In recognition and anticipation that (i) certain of the directors, partners,

principals, officers, members, managers, family members, trustees, beneficiaries and/or employees of the Ryan

Parties and Onex (as defined below) may serve as directors or officers of the Corporation and (ii) the Ryan Parties

and Onex engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in

which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage and/or other business activities that overlap with or

compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage, and (iii) that the Corporation and/

or its Affiliated Companies (as defined below) may engage in material business transactions with the Ryan Parties

and Onex, and that the Corporation is expected to benefit therefrom, the provisions of this ARTICLE EIGHT are set

forth to regulate and define to the fullest extent permitted by law the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation as

they may involve the Ryan Parties, Onex and/or their respective directors, partners, principals, officers, members,

managers, family members, trustees, beneficiaries and/or employees, including any of the foregoing who serve as

officers or directors of the Corporation (collectively, the “Exempted Persons”), and the powers, rights, duties and

liabilities of the Corporation and its officers, directors and stockholders in connection therewith. “Onex” means

Onex Corporation and its Affiliated Companies. “Affiliated Companies” means (a) in respect of Onex, any entity

that now or in the future Controls, is Controlled by or is under common Control with Onex (other than the

Corporation and any entity that is Controlled by the Corporation) and any investment funds managed by the Onex

and (b) in respect of the Corporation, any entity that is now or in the future Controlled by the Corporation. “Control”

is defined in ARTICLE NINE.

Section 2. Competition and Corporate Opportunities. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of the

Exempted Persons shall have any fiduciary duty to (i) refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same or

similar business activities or lines of business as the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies or (ii) otherwise

competing with the Corporation and/or its Affiliated Companies, and no Exempted Person shall be liable to the

Corporation or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of any such activities of the Ryan

Parties, Onex and its Affiliated Companies, or such Exempted Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable

law, the Corporation, on behalf of itself and its Affiliated Companies, renounces any interest or expectancy of the

Corporation and its Affiliated Companies in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business

opportunities that are from time to time presented to the Exempted Persons, even if the opportunity is one that the

Corporation or its Affiliated Companies might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to

pursue if granted the opportunity to do so, and each Exempted Person shall have no duty to communicate or offer

such business opportunity to the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies and, to the fullest extent permitted by

applicable law, shall not be liable to the Corporation, any of its Affiliated Companies or its stockholders for breach

of any fiduciary or other duty, as a director, officer or stockholder of the Corporation solely, by reason of the fact

that the Ryan Parties or any such Exempted Person pursues or acquires such business opportunity, sells, assigns,

transfers or directs such business opportunity to another person or fails to present such business opportunity, or

information regarding such business opportunity, to the Corporation or any of its Affiliated Companies. For the

avoidance of doubt, each of the Exempted Persons shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have the right to, and

shall have no duty (whether contractual or otherwise) not to, directly or indirectly: (A) engage in the same, similar or

competing business activities or lines of business as the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies, (B) do business

with any client or customer of the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies, or (C) make investments in competing

businesses of the Corporation or its Affiliated Companies, and such acts shall not be deemed wrongful or improper.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2, the Corporation does not renounce any interest or

expectancy it may have in any business opportunity that is expressly offered to any Exempted Person solely in his or

her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation, and not in any other capacity.

Section 3. Certain Matters Deemed Not Corporate Opportunities. In addition to, and notwithstanding the foregoing

provisions of this ARTICLE EIGHT, a corporate opportunity shall not be deemed to belong to the Corporation if it

is a business opportunity the Corporation is not financially able or contractually permitted or legally able to

undertake, or that is, from its nature, not in the line of the Corporation’s business or is of no practical advantage to it

or that is one in which the Corporation has no interest or reasonable expectancy.

Section 4. Amendment of this Article. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then

outstanding, and in addition to any vote required by applicable law or this Restated Certificate, the affirmative vote

of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock,

voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend or repeal, or to adopt any provision inconsistent

with, this ARTICLE EIGHT; provided however, that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, neither the alteration,

amendment or repeal of this ARTICLE EIGHT nor the adoption of any provision of this Restated Certificate

inconsistent with this ARTICLE EIGHT shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any

Exempted Person for or with respect to any activities or opportunities which such Exempted Person becomes aware

prior to such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption.

shares of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this

ARTICLE EIGHT.

(a) prior to such time the Board of Directors approved either the Business Combination or the transaction which

resulted in such stockholder becoming an Interested Stockholder;

(b) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in such stockholder becoming an Interested Stockholder,

(i) by Persons (as defined hereinafter) who are directors and also officers of the Corporation and (ii) employee stock

plans of the Corporation in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether

shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

and two-thirds percent (662⁄3%) of the outstanding Voting Stock which is not owned by such Interested Stockholder.

Section 3. Exceptions to Prohibition on Interested Stockholder Transactions. The restrictions contained in this

ARTICLE NINE shall not apply if:

(a) a stockholder becomes an Interested Stockholder inadvertently and (i) as soon as practicable divests itself of

ownership of sufficient shares so that the stockholder ceases to be an Interested Stockholder; and (ii) would not, at

any time within the three (3) year period immediately prior to a Business Combination between the Corporation and

directors then in office (but not less than one) who were directors prior to any Person becoming an Interested

Stockholder during the previous three (3) years or were recommended for election or elected to succeed such

directors by a majority of such directors. The proposed transactions referred to in the preceding sentence are limited

to (x) a merger or consolidation of the Corporation (except for a merger in respect of which, pursuant to Section

251(f) of the DGCL, no vote of the stockholders of the Corporation is required); (y) a sale, lease, exchange,

mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions), whether as part of a

dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Corporation or of any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the

understanding to vote such Stock arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given in response to a proxy or

consent solicitation made to 10 or more Persons; or (C) has any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the

purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in (B) of

ARTICLE SEVEN, ARTICLE NINE, ARTICLE TEN or ARTICLE ELEVEN of this Restated Certificate may be

altered, amended or repealed in any respect, nor may any provision of this Restated Certificate or the Bylaws

inconsistent therewith be adopted without the affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the then

outstanding shares of Voting Stock, voting together as a single class.

(d) A special meeting called pursuant to this Section 3(b) of ARTICLE II shall be held at such date, time and place,

if any, or virtually, as may be fixed by the Board of Directors in accordance with these Bylaws, provided, however,

that the special meeting shall not be held more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the receipt by the Secretary

(e) Business transacted at any special meeting resulting from a Special Meeting Request validly made under these

matters the Board of Directors determines to include in the Corporation’s notice of the special meeting. Except as

otherwise provided by the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the Chair of the special meeting

(or the Board of Directors in advance of the special meeting) shall have the power and authority to determine

whether any business proposed to be brought before a special meeting of stockholders was proposed in accordance

with the foregoing procedures set forth in these Bylaws. No business shall be conducted at a special meeting of

stockholders except in accordance with this Section 3(b) of ARTICLE II of these Bylaws or as required by the

DGCL.

(f) A “net long position” shall be determined with respect to each Requesting Stockholder in accordance with the

definition thereof set forth in Rule 14e-4 under the Exchange Act (or any successor rule thereof).

Section 4. Notice of Meetings. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take action at a meeting, notice

of the meeting shall be given that shall state the place, if any, date, and time of the meeting of the stockholders, the

means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders not physically present may be

deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to

vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of

the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be

given, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date on which the meeting is to be held, to each stockholder

entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the

meeting, except as otherwise provided herein or required by law (meaning, here and hereinafter, as required from

time to time by the DGCL) or the Certificate of Incorporation.

(a) Form of Notice. All such notices shall be delivered in writing or in any other manner permitted by the DGCL. If

mailed, such notice shall be deemed given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to

the stockholder at his, her or its address as the same appears on the records of the Corporation. If delivered by

courier service, notice shall be deemed given at the earlier of when the notice is received or left at such stockholder’s

address as the same appears on the records of the Corporation. If given by electronic mail, notice shall be deemed

given 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. Notice to stockholders may also be given by other forms of electronic

transmission consented to by the stockholder. If given by facsimile telecommunication, such notice shall be deemed

given when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice by facsimile. If given by a

posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, such

notice shall be deemed given upon the later of (x) such posting and (y) the giving of such separate notice. If notice is

given by any other form of electronic transmission, such notice shall be deemed given when directed to the

stockholder. An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation, the transfer agent of the

Corporation or any other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be

prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

(b) Waiver of Notice. Whenever notice is required to be given under any provisions of the DGCL, the Certificate of

Incorporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the stockholder entitled to notice, or a waiver by

electronic transmission given by the stockholder entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein,

shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting of the

stockholders of the Corporation need be specified in any waiver of notice of such meeting. Attendance of a

stockholder of the Corporation at a meeting of such stockholders shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting,

except when the stockholder attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the

transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened and does not further participate in

the meeting.

by electronic transmission from and after the time: (i) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission

two (2) consecutive notices given by the Corporation; and (ii) such inability becomes known to the secretary or an

assistant secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent or other person responsible for the giving of notice.

However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other

action. For purposes of these Bylaws, except as otherwise limited by applicable law, the term “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 electronic 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 recipient through an automated process.

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.

Section 5. List of Stockholders. The Corporation shall prepare, at least 10 days before each meeting of stockholders,

a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, provided, however, if the record date for

determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than 10 days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the

stockholders entitled to vote as of the 10th day before the meeting date, arranged in alphabetical order and showing

the address of each such stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each such stockholder.

Nothing contained in this section shall require the Corporation 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 at least 10 days prior to the date of the meeting: (a) 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 (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In

the event the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take

reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. Except as

otherwise provided by law, the list shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the

list of stockholders required by this Section 5 or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

Section 6. Quorum. The holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding capital stock entitled to vote at the

meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders,

except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. If a quorum is not present,

the chair of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power present in person or represented by proxy at

the meeting and entitled to vote thereon may adjourn the meeting to another time and/or place from time to time

until a quorum shall be present in person or represented by proxy. When a specified item of business requires a vote

by a class or series (if the Corporation shall then have outstanding shares of more than one class or series) voting as

a separate class or series, the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding stock of such class or series

shall constitute a quorum (as to such class or series) for the transaction of such item of business. A quorum once

established at a meeting shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum.

Section 7. Adjourned Meetings. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to

reconvene at the same or some other place. When a meeting is adjourned to another time and place, notice need not

be given of the 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. At the adjourned meeting, the

Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment

is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to

vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the

adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting, which

record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of

Directors and, except as otherwise required by law, shall not be more than 60 days nor less than 10 days before the

date of such adjourned meeting, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled

to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

Section 8. Vote Required.

(a) Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock then outstanding, when a quorum has been

established, all matters other than the election of directors shall be determined by the affirmative vote of the majority

of voting power of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the

subject matter, unless by express provisions of the DGCL or other applicable law, the rules of any stock exchange

upon which the Corporation’s securities are listed, any regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, the

Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws a minimum or different vote is required, in which case, such minimum

or different vote shall be the required vote for such matter.

(b) Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock outstanding, with respect to the election of

directors, directors shall be elected by the vote of the majority of the votes cast in favor of such nominee’s election

at any meeting of stockholders held to elect directors at which a quorum is present; provided, however, that, if the

number of nominees for director exceeds the number of directors to be elected (a “contested election”), directors

shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting of stockholders held to elect directors at which

quorum is present. For purposes of these Bylaws, a majority of the votes cast means that the number of shares voted

“for” a nominee must exceed the number of shares voted “against” that nominee. The determination of whether an

election of directors is a contested election shall be made by the Secretary of the Corporation as of the close of the

applicable notice of nomination period set forth in Section 11(c) of ARTICLE II of these Bylaws or under applicable

law, based on whether one or more notice(s) of nomination were timely delivered in accordance with these Bylaws;

provided, however, that the 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 or compliance with these Bylaws. If,

prior to the time the Corporation files its initial proxy statement in connection with such election of directors (either

in preliminary or definitive form), one or more notices of nomination are withdrawn such that the number of

candidates for election of directors no longer exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the election shall not be

considered a contested election, but in all other 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.

Board of Directors, such person must submit an irrevocable resignation, contingent on (i) that person not receiving a

majority of the votes cast in an election that is not a “contested election,” and (ii) acceptance of that resignation by

the Board of Directors in accordance with any policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors for such

purpose. In the event an incumbent director fails to receive a majority of the votes cast in an election that is not a

“contested election”, the compensation and governance committee, or such other committee designated by the Board

of Directors, shall make a recommendation to the Board of Directors as to whether to accept or reject the resignation

of such incumbent director, or whether other action should be taken. The Board of Directors shall act on the

resignation, taking into account the committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose (by a press release and

filing an appropriate disclosure with the Securities and Exchange Commission) its decision regarding the resignation

and, if such resignation is rejected, the rationale behind the decision within ninety (90) days following certification

of the election results. The committee in making its recommendation and the Board of Directors in making its

decision each may consider any factors and other information that they consider appropriate and relevant.

(d) If the Board of Directors accepts a director's resignation pursuant to this Section 8, or if a nominee for director is

not elected and the nominee is not an incumbent director, then the Board of Directors may fill the resulting vacancy

pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation.

Section 9. Voting Rights. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock then outstanding, except

as otherwise provided by the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any

meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote in person or by proxy for each share of capital stock held by

such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not

be by written ballot.

Section 10. Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent to corporate

action without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such

proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period.

A duly executed 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 proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of

whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation

generally.

(a) Business at Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(i) Only such business (other than nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors, which must be

notice as described above. Notices delivered pursuant to Section 11(a) of this ARTICLE II will be deemed received

on any given day only if received prior to the Close of Business (as defined below) on such day (and otherwise shall

be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day (as defined below)).

ARTICLE II. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing clause (ii) of this Section 11(c) of ARTICLE II shall be the

exclusive means for a stockholder to propose nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors at a

special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected. For nominations to be properly brought by a

stockholder at a special meeting of stockholders, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper

written form as described in this Section 11(c) of ARTICLE II to the Secretary. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice

for the nomination of persons for election to the Board of Directors (other than such a notice by the Ryan Parties

prior to the Advance Notice Trigger Date, which may be delivered at any time any time prior to the mailing of the

definitive proxy statement pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act related) must be received by the Secretary

at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the 120th day prior to such special meeting and

not later than the Close of Business (as defined below) on the later of the 90th day prior to such special meeting or

the tenth day following the day on which a Public Announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and

of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting. In no event shall any adjournment

or postponement of a special meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period (or extend any time

period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. Notices delivered pursuant to this Section 11(c)

of ARTICLE II will be deemed received on any given day if received prior to the Close of Business (as defined

below) on such day (and otherwise on the next succeeding day). To be in proper written form, such stockholder’s

notice shall set forth all of the information required by, and otherwise be in compliance with, Section 11(b)(iii) of

this ARTICLE II. In addition, any stockholder who submits a notice pursuant to this Section 11(c) of ARTICLE II is

required to update and supplement the information disclosed in such notice, if necessary, in accordance with Section

11(d) of this ARTICLE II and shall comply with Section 11(f) of this ARTICLE II. 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.

(d) Update and Supplement of Stockholder’s Notice. Any stockholder who submits a notice of proposal for business

or nomination for election pursuant to this Section 11 of ARTICLE II is required to update and supplement the

information disclosed in such notice, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in

such notice shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the

meeting of stockholders and as of the date that is ten (10) Business Days (as defined below) prior to such meeting of

the stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be received by

the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the Close of Business (as defined

below) on the fifth Business Day after the record date for the meeting of stockholders (in the case of the update and

supplement required to be made as of the record date), and not later than the Close of Business (as defined below) on

the eighth Business Day (as defined below) prior to the date for the meeting of stockholders or any adjournment or

postponement thereof (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) Business Days

prior to the meeting of stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof). “Business Day” means Monday,

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday that is not a day on which banking institutions in Chicago, IL or New

York, NY are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. “Close of Business” means 5:00 p.m. local

time at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, and if an applicable deadline falls on the Close of Business

on a day that is not a Business Day, then the applicable deadline shall be deemed to be the Close of Business on the

immediately preceding Business Day.

(e) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 11 of ARTICLE II, the term:

(i) “Derivative Positions” means, with respect to a stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person, any derivative

positions including, without limitation, any short position, profits interest, option, warrant, convertible security,

stock appreciation right, or similar right with an exercise or conversion privilege or a settlement payment or

such Stockholder Associated Person.

(f) Submission of Questionnaire, Representation and Agreement. To be qualified to be a nominee for election or re-

election as a director of the Corporation, a person must deliver (in the case of a person nominated by a stockholder

in accordance with Sections 11(b) or 11(c) of this ARTICLE II, in accordance with the time periods prescribed for

delivery of notice under such sections) to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation a written

questionnaire with respect to the background and qualification of such person and the background of any other

person or entity on whose behalf the nomination is being made (which questionnaire shall be provided by the

Secretary upon written request of any stockholder of record identified by name within five Business Days of such

written request) and a written representation and agreement (in the form provided by the Secretary upon written

request of any stockholder of record identified by name within five Business Days of such written request) that such

person (i) is not and will not become a party to (A) any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether written

or oral) with, and has not given any commitment or assurance to, any person or entity as to how such person, if

elected as a director of the Corporation, will act or vote on any issue or question (a “Voting Commitment”) that has

not been disclosed to the Corporation or (B) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such person’s

ability to comply, if elected as a director of the Corporation, with such person’s fiduciary duties under applicable

law, (ii) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or

entity other than the Corporation with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or

disclosed corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality and stock ownership and trading policies and

guidelines of the Corporation.

(g) Update and Supplement of Nominee Information. The Corporation may also, as a condition to any such

nomination or business being deemed properly brought before an annual meeting, require any Stockholder

Associated Person or proposed nominee to deliver to the Secretary, within five Business Days of any such request,

such other information as may reasonably be requested by the Corporation, including such other information as may

be reasonably required by the Board, in its sole discretion, to determine (A) the eligibility of such proposed nominee

to serve as a director of the Corporation, (B) whether such nominee qualifies as an “independent director” or “audit

committee financial expert” under applicable law, Securities and Exchange Commission and stock exchange rules or

regulation, or any publicly disclosed corporate governance guideline or committee charter of the Corporation and

reasonable stockholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee.

(h) Authority of Chair; General Provisions. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of

Incorporation or these Bylaws, the Board of Directors (in advance of the meeting) and the chair of the meeting (who

shall be an officer) shall have the power and duty to determine whether any nomination or other business proposed

to be brought before the meeting was made or brought in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws

(including whether the stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or

proposal is made or solicited (or is part of a group which solicited) or did not so solicit, as the case may be, proxies

or votes in support of such stockholder’s nominee or proposal in compliance with such stockholder’s representation

as required by Section 11(a)(iii)(G) or Section 11(b)(iii)(G), as applicable, of these Bylaws) and, if any nomination

or other business is not made or brought in compliance with these Bylaws, to declare that such nomination or

proposal of other business be disregarded and not acted upon. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this

Section 11, unless otherwise required by law, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder)

does not appear at the annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present a nomination or

proposed 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. For purposes of this

Section 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.

(i) Compliance with Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of these Bylaws, a stockholder shall

also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules, regulations and schedules

promulgated thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in these Bylaws; provided, however, that any references

in these Bylaws to the Exchange Act or the rules, regulations and schedules promulgated thereunder are not intended

to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to any nomination or other business to be considered pursuant to

Section 11 of this ARTICLE II.

(j) Effect on Other Rights. Nothing in these Bylaws shall be deemed to (A) affect any rights of the stockholders to

request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act,

(B) confer upon any stockholder a right to have a nominee or any proposed business included in the Corporation’s

proxy statement, except as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, (C) affect any rights of the

holders of any series of preferred stock to elect directors pursuant to any applicable provisions of the Certificate of

Incorporation or (D) limit the exercise, the method or timing of the exercise of, the rights of any person granted by

the Corporation to nominate directors (including pursuant to that Director Nomination Agreement, dated as of on or

about July 26, 2021 (as amended and/or restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Nomination Agreement”),

by and among the Corporation and the investors named therein, which rights may be exercised without compliance

with the provisions of this Section 11 of ARTICLE II.

Section 12. Fixing a Record Date for Stockholder Meetings. In order that the Corporation may determine the

stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors

may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date

is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than 60 days nor less than 10 days

before the date of such meeting. If the Board of Directors so fixes a date, 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 by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders

entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be the Close of Business on the next day preceding

the day on which notice is first given, or, if notice is waived, at the Close of Business on the day next preceding the

day on which the meeting is held. 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 adjourned meeting in conformity herewith; 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 in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section

12 at the adjourned meeting.

Section 13. Action by Stockholders Without a Meeting. So long as stockholders of the Corporation have the right to

act by consent in lieu of a meeting in accordance with Section 1 of ARTICLE SEVEN of the Certificate of

Incorporation, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) Record Date. For the purpose of determining the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action without a

meeting as may be permitted by the Certificate of Incorporation or the certificate of designation relating to any

outstanding class or series of preferred stock, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall

not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which

record date shall not be more than ten (10) (or the maximum number permitted by applicable law) days after the date

on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. Any stockholder of record

seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take action by consent in lieu of a meeting shall, by written notice

delivered to the Secretary at the Corporation’s principal place of business during regular business hours, request that

the Board of Directors fix a record date, which notice shall include the text of any proposed resolutions. Notices

delivered pursuant to Section 13(a) of this ARTICLE II will be deemed received on any given day only if received

prior to the Close of Business on such day (and otherwise shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business

Day). The Board of Directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten (10) days after the date on which such

written notice is properly delivered to and deemed received by the Secretary, adopt a resolution fixing the record

date (unless a record date has previously been fixed by the Board of Directors pursuant to the first sentence of this

Section 13(a)). If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 13(a) or otherwise

within ten (10) days of receipt of a valid request by a stockholder, the record date for determining stockholders

entitled to consent to corporate action without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required

pursuant to applicable law, shall be the first date after the expiration of such ten (10) day time period on which a

signed consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation pursuant to

Section 13(b); provided, however, that if prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, the

record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action without a meeting shall in such an

event be at the Close of Business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior

action.

(b) Generally. No consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless consents signed by

a sufficient number of stockholders to take such action are delivered to the Corporation, in the manner required by

this Section 13, within sixty (60) (or the maximum number permitted by applicable law) days of the first date on

which a consent is delivered to the Corporation in the manner required by applicable law. The validity of any

consent executed by a proxy for a stockholder pursuant to an electronic transmission transmitted to such proxy

holder by or upon the authorization of the stockholder shall be determined by or at the direction of the Secretary. A

written record of the information upon which the person making such determination relied shall be made and kept in

the records of the proceedings of the stockholders. Any such consent shall be inserted in the minute book as if it

were the minutes of a meeting of stockholders. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting

by less than unanimous consent shall be given by the Corporation (at its expense) to those stockholders who have

not consented and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting

if the record date for notice of such meeting had been the date that consents signed by a sufficient number of holders

to take the action were delivered to the Corporation.

Section 14. Conduct of Meetings.

(a) Generally. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chair of the Board, if any, or in the Chair’s

absence or disability, by the Chief Executive Officer, or in the Chief Executive Officer’s absence or disability, by

the President, or in the President’s absence or disability, by a Vice President (in the order as determined by the

Board of Directors), or in the absence or disability of the foregoing persons by a chair designated by the Board of

Directors, or in the absence or disability of such person, by a chair chosen at the meeting; provided, however, that

the chair must be an officer of the Company. The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in the

Secretary’s absence or disability the chair of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

(b) Rules, Regulations and Procedures. The Board of Directors may adopt by resolution such rules, regulations and

procedures for the conduct of any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation as it shall deem appropriate including,

without limitation, such guidelines and procedures as it may deem appropriate regarding the participation by means

of remote communication of stockholders and proxyholders not physically present at a meeting. Except to the extent

inconsistent with such rules, regulations and procedures as adopted by the Board of Directors, the chair of any

meeting of stockholders 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 chair, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules,

regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chair of the meeting, may

include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of 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

attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and

constituted proxies or such other persons as the chair of the meeting shall determine; (iv) restrictions on entry to the

meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or

comments by participants; and (vi) restrictions on the use of mobile phones, audio or video recording devices and

similar devices at the meeting. The chair of the meeting of stockholders, in addition to making any other

determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting, shall, if the facts warrant, determine and

declare to the meeting that a nomination or matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if

such chair should so determine, such chair shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not

properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by

the Board of Directors or the chair of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in

accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure. The chair of the meeting shall announce at the meeting when

the polls for each matter to be voted upon at the meeting will be opened and closed. After the polls close, no ballots,

proxies or votes or any revocations or changes thereto may be accepted. The chair of the meeting shall have the

power, right and authority, for any or no reason, to convene, recess and/or adjourn any meeting of stockholders.

of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors of election to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof.

One or more other persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no

inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the chair of the meeting shall appoint one or more

inspectors to act at the meeting. Unless otherwise required by law, inspectors may be officers, employees or agents

of the Corporation. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such

election. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of such inspector’s duties, shall take and sign an oath

faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s

ability. The inspector shall have the duties prescribed by law and, when the vote is completed, shall make a

certificate of the result of the vote taken and of such other facts as may be required by law.

Section 15. Remote Communication. If authorized by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, and subject to

such guidelines and procedures as the Board may adopt, stockholders and proxyholders not physically present at a

meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication:

(a) participate in a meeting of stockholders; and

(b) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders whether such meeting is to be held at a

designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that

vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxyholder;

(d) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxyholders a

reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including

an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings; and

(e) if any stockholder or proxyholder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication,

a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

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

Section 2. Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held without other notice than

this Bylaw immediately after, and at the same place as, the annual meeting of stockholders. In the event that the

annual meeting of stockholders takes place telephonically or through any other means by which the stockholders do

not convene in any one location, the annual meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held at the principal offices of

the Corporation immediately after the annual meeting of the stockholders.

Section 3. Regular Meetings and Special Meetings. Regular meetings, other than the annual meeting, 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

resolution of the Board of Directors and publicized among all directors. Special meetings of the Board of Directors

may be called by (i) the Chair of the Board, if any, (ii) a director appointed by the Ryan Parties to call such special

meetings or (iii) by the Secretary upon the written request of a majority of the directors then in office, and in each

case shall be held at the place, if any, on the date and at the time as he, she or they shall fix. Any and all business

may be transacted at a special meeting of the Board of Directors.

Section 4. Notice of Meetings. Notice of regular meetings of the Board of Directors need not be given except as

otherwise required by law or these Bylaws. Notice of each special meeting of the Board of Directors, and of each

regular and annual meeting of the Board of Directors for which notice is required, shall be given by the Secretary as

hereinafter provided in this Section 4. Such notice shall state the date, time and place, if any, of the meeting. Notice

of any special meeting, and of any regular or annual meeting for which notice is required, shall be given to each

director at least (a) twenty-four (24) hours before the meeting if by telephone or by being personally delivered or

sent by overnight courier, telecopy, electronic transmission, email or similar means or (b) five (5) days before the

meeting if delivered by mail to the director’s residence or usual place of business. Such notice shall be deemed to be

delivered when deposited in the United States mail so addressed, with postage prepaid, or when transmitted if sent

by telex, telecopy, electronic transmission, email or similar means. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the

purpose of, any special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such

meeting.

Section 5. Waiver of Notice. Any director may waive notice of any meeting of directors by a writing signed by the

director or by electronic transmission. Any member of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof who is

present at a meeting shall have waived notice of such meeting except when such member attends for the express

purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not

lawfully called or convened and does not further participate in the meeting. Such member shall be conclusively

presumed to have assented to any action taken unless his or her dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting

or unless his or her written dissent to such action shall be filed with the person acting as the secretary of the meeting

before the adjournment thereof or shall be forwarded by registered mail to the Secretary of the Corporation

immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to any member who voted in

favor of such action.

Section 6. Chair of the Board, Quorum, Required Vote and Adjournment. Subject to provisions regarding

appointment of the Chair of the Board in the Certificate of Incorporation and the Nomination Agreement, the Board

of Directors may elect a Chair of the Board. The Chair of the Board must be a director and may be an officer of the

Corporation. Subject to the provisions of these Bylaws and the direction of the Board of Directors, he or she shall

perform all duties and have all powers which are commonly incident to the position of Chair of the Board or which

are delegated to him or her by the Board of Directors, preside at all meetings of the stockholders and Board of

Directors at which he or she is present and have such powers and perform such duties as the Board of Directors may

from time to time prescribe. If the Chair of the Board is not present at a meeting of the Board of Directors, the Chief

Executive Officer (if the Chief Executive Officer is a director and is not also the Chair of the Board) shall preside at

such meeting, and, if the Chief Executive Officer is not present at such meeting, a majority of the directors present at

such meeting shall elect one of the directors present at the meeting to so preside. At all meetings of the Board of

Directors, a majority of the directors then in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business,

provided, however, that a quorum shall never be less than one-third the total number of directors. Unless by express

provision of an applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws a different vote is required, the vote

of a majority of directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors.

At any meeting of the Board of Directors, business shall be transacted in such order and manner as the Board of

Directors may from time to time determine. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of

Directors, the directors present thereat may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, adjourn the meeting from time to

time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

Section 7. Committees.

(a) Subject to provisions regarding committee designations in the Nomination Agreement, the Board of Directors

may designate one or more committees, including an executive committee, consisting of one or more of the directors

of the Corporation, and any committees required by the rules and regulations of such exchange as any securities of

the Corporation are listed. The Board of Directors 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. Except to the

extent restricted by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, each such committee, to the extent provided

by the DGCL and in the resolution creating it, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board

of Directors. Each such committee shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. Each committee shall keep

regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Board of Directors upon request.

(b) Each committee of the Board of Directors may fix its own rules of procedure and shall hold its meetings as

provided by such rules, except as may otherwise be provided by a resolution of the Board of Directors designating

such committee. Unless otherwise provided in such a resolution, the presence of at least a majority of the members

of the committee shall be necessary to constitute a quorum. All matters shall be determined by a majority vote of the

members present at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Unless otherwise provided in such a resolution, in the

event that a member and that member’s alternate, if alternates are designated by the Board of Directors, of such

committee is or are absent or disqualified, the member or members present at any meeting and not disqualified from

voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of

the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in place of any such absent or disqualified member.

Section 8. Action by Written Consent. 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 of Directors or such committee, as the case

may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission. After the action is taken, the consent or consents

relating thereto shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the board or committee in the same paper form or

electronic form as the minutes are maintained.

Section 9. Compensation. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation, including fees,

reimbursement of expenses and equity compensation, of directors for services to the Corporation in any capacity,

including for attendance of meetings of the Board of Directors or participation on any committees. No such payment

shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.

Section 10. Reliance on Books and Records. A member of the Board of Directors, or a member of any committee

designated by the Board of Directors shall, in the performance of such member’s duties, be fully protected in relying

in good faith upon records of the Corporation and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented

to the Corporation by any of the Corporation’s officers or employees, or committees of the Board of Directors, or by

any other person as to matters the member reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert

competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation.

Section 11. Telephonic and Other Meetings. Unless restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation, any one or more

members of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors

or such committee by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all

persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. Participation by such means shall constitute presence in

person at a meeting.

incident to that position. The Chief Executive Officer shall, in the absence of the Chair of the Board, or if a Chair of

Officer is a director and (b) the stockholders. Subject to the powers of the Board of Directors and the Chair of the

powers and shall perform such duties as may be assigned to them by the Chief Executive Officer or the senior

time, either with or without cause.

ARTICLE V

CERTIFICATES OF STOCK

Section 1. Form. The shares of stock of the Corporation shall be represented by certificates, provided that the Board

of Directors may provide by resolution that some or all of any or all classes or series of its stock shall be

uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate

is surrendered to the Corporation. If shares are represented by certificates, the certificates shall be in such form as

required by applicable law and as determined by the Board of Directors. Each certificate shall certify the number of

shares owned by such holder in the Corporation and shall be signed by, or in the name of the Corporation by two

authorized officers of the Corporation including, but not limited to, the Chair of the Board (if an officer), the Chief

Executive Officer, the President, a Vice President, the Chief Financial Officer, the Treasurer, the Secretary and an

Assistant Secretary of the Corporation. Any or all signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any

officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed, or whose facsimile signature or signatures have been used on, any

such certificate or certificates shall cease to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar of the Corporation whether

because of death, resignation or otherwise before such certificate or certificates have been issued by the Corporation,

such certificate or certificates may nevertheless be issued as though the person or persons who signed such

certificate or certificates or whose facsimile signature or signatures have been used thereon had not ceased to be

such officer, transfer agent or registrar of the Corporation at the date of issue. All certificates for shares shall be

consecutively numbered or otherwise identified. The Board of Directors may appoint a bank or trust company

organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof to act as its transfer agent or registrar, or both in

connection with the transfer of any class or series of securities of the Corporation. The Corporation, or its designated

transfer agent or other agent, shall keep a book or set of books to be known as the stock transfer books of the

Corporation, containing the name of each holder of record, together with such holder’s address and the number and

class or series of shares held by such holder and the date of issue. When shares are represented by certificates, the

Corporation shall issue and deliver to each holder to whom such shares have been issued or transferred, certificates

representing the shares owned by such holder, and shares of stock of the Corporation shall only be transferred on the

books of the Corporation by the holder of record thereof or by such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing,

upon surrender to the Corporation or its designated transfer agent or other agent of the certificate or certificates for

such shares endorsed by the appropriate person or persons, with such evidence of the authenticity of such

endorsement, transfer, authorization and other matters as the Corporation may reasonably require, and accompanied

by all necessary stock transfer stamps. In that event, it shall be the duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate

to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate or certificates and record the transaction on its books. When

shares are not represented by certificates, shares of stock of the Corporation shall only be transferred on the books of

the Corporation by the holder of record thereof or by such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such

evidence of the authenticity of such transfer, authorization and other matters as the Corporation may reasonably

require, and accompanied by all necessary stock transfer stamps, and within a reasonable time after the issuance or

transfer of such shares, the Corporation shall, if required by applicable law, send the holder to whom such shares

have been issued or transferred a written statement of the information required by applicable law. Unless otherwise

provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or any other instrument, the rights and

obligations of the holders of uncertificated stock and the rights and obligations of the holders of certificates

representing stock of the same class and series shall be identical.

Section 2. Lost Certificates. The Corporation may issue or direct a new certificate or certificates or uncertificated

shares to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates previously issued by the Corporation alleged to have

been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the owner of the lost, stolen or

destroyed certificate. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates or uncertificated shares, the

Corporation may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such

lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond in

such sum as it may direct, sufficient to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the

Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new

certificate or uncertificated shares.

Section 3. Registered Stockholders. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person

registered on its records as the owner of shares of stock to receive dividends, to vote, to receive notifications and

otherwise to exercise all the rights and powers of an owner, except as otherwise required by applicable law. The

Corporation shall not be bound to recognize any 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

required by applicable law.

Section 4. Fixing a Record Date for Purposes Other Than Stockholder Meetings or Actions by Written Consent. In

order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other

distribution or allotment or any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change,

conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purposes of any other lawful action (other than stockholder meetings and

stockholder consents which are expressly governed by Sections 12 and 13 of ARTICLE II hereof), the Board of

Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the

record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to such action. If no record date is

fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the Close of Business on the day

on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

ARTICLE VI

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 1. Dividends. Subject to and in accordance with applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation and any

certificate of designation relating to any series of preferred stock, dividends upon the shares of capital stock of the

Corporation may be declared and paid by the Board of Directors, in accordance with applicable law. Dividends may

be paid in cash, in property or in shares of the Corporation’s capital stock, subject to the provisions of applicable law

and the Certificate of Incorporation. Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside out of any funds of the

Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose. The Board of Directors may

modify or abolish any such reserves in the manner in which they were created.

Section 2. Checks, Notes, Drafts, Etc. All checks, notes, drafts or other orders for the payment of money of the

Corporation shall be signed, endorsed or accepted in the name of the Corporation by such officer, officers, person or

persons as from time to time may be designated by the Board of Directors or by an officer or officers authorized by

the Board of Directors to make such designation.

Section 3. Contracts. In addition to the powers otherwise granted to officers pursuant to ARTICLE IV hereof, the

Board of Directors may authorize any officer or officers, or any agent or agents, in the name and on behalf of the

Corporation to enter into or execute and deliver any and all deeds, bonds, mortgages, contracts and other obligations

or instruments, and such authority may be general or confined to specific instances.

Section 4. Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors.

Section 5. Corporate Seal. The Board of Directors may provide a corporate seal which shall be in the form of a circle

and shall have inscribed thereon the name of the Corporation and the words “Corporate Seal, Delaware.” The seal

may be used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed or affixed or reproduced or otherwise.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no seal shall be required by virtue of this Section.

Section 6. Voting Securities Owned By Corporation. Voting securities in any other corporation or entity held by the

Corporation shall be voted by the Chair of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, the President or the Chief Financial

Officer, unless the Board of Directors specifically confers authority to vote with respect thereto, which authority

may be general or confined to specific instances, upon some other person or officer. Any person authorized to vote

securities shall have the power to appoint proxies, with general power of substitution.

Section 7. Facsimile/Electronic Signatures. In addition to the provisions for use of facsimile signatures elsewhere

specifically authorized in these Bylaws, docusign, facsimile and other forms of electronic signatures of any officer

or director of the Corporation may be used to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Section 8. Section Headings. Section headings in these Bylaws are for convenience of reference only and shall not

be given any substantive effect in limiting or otherwise construing any provision herein.

Section 9. Inconsistent Provisions. In the event that any provision (or part thereof) of these Bylaws is or becomes

inconsistent with any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, the DGCL, any other applicable law or the

Nomination Agreement, the provision (or part thereof) of these Bylaws shall be construed and deemed to have been

revised to conform to the applicable provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, the DGCL, other applicable law or

the Nomination Agreement, as the case may be, the applicable provisions of which shall be deemed incorporated

herein by reference so as to eliminate any such inconsistency.

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, 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 (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation

to provide broader indemnification rights than permitted prior thereto), 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 this Section 2 of this ARTICLE VII with respect to proceedings to enforce

rights to indemnification and advance of expenses (as defined below), 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 Directors 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 this Section 1 or otherwise. The Corporation may also, by action

of its Board of Directors, 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 of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Corporation

appointed pursuant to ARTICLE IV, and to any Vice President, Assistant Secretary, Assistant Treasurer or other

officer of the Corporation appointed by the Board of Directors pursuant to ARTICLE IV of these Bylaws, and any

reference to an officer of any other enterprise shall be deemed to refer exclusively to an officer appointed by the

board of directors or equivalent governing body of such other entity pursuant to the certificate of incorporation and

bylaws or equivalent organizational documents of such other enterprise. The fact that any person who is or was an

employee of the Corporation or an employee of any other enterprise has been given or has used the title of “Vice

President” or any other title, including any title granted to such person by the Chief Executive Officer of pursuant to

ARTICLE IV, Section 11, that could be construed to suggest or imply that such person is or may be an officer of the

Corporation or of such other enterprise shall not result in such person being constituted as, or being deemed to be, an

officer of the Corporation or of such other enterprise for purposes of this ARTICLE VII unless such person’s

appointment to such office was approved by the Board of Directors pursuant to ARTICLE VII.

Section 2. Procedure for Indemnification. Any claim for indemnification or advance of expenses by an indemnitee

under this Section 2 of ARTICLE VII shall be made promptly, and in any event within forty-five days (or, in the

case of an advance of expenses, twenty days, provided that the director or officer has delivered the undertaking

contemplated by Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII if required), upon the written request of the indemnitee. If the

Corporation denies a written request for indemnification or advance of expenses, in whole or in part, or if payment

in full pursuant to such request is not made within forty-five days (or, in the case of an advance of expenses, twenty

days, provided that the indemnitee has delivered the undertaking contemplated by Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII if

required), the right to indemnification or advances as granted by this ARTICLE VII shall be enforceable by the

indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such person’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with

successfully establishing his or her right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be

indemnified by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. It shall be a defense to any such

action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of expenses where the undertaking required

pursuant to Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII, if any, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not

met the applicable standard of conduct which make it permissible under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify

the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proof shall be on the Corporation to the fullest extent

permitted by law. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, a committee thereof,

independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such

action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable

standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of

Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of

conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard

of conduct.

Section 3. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on its own behalf and on behalf of any

person who is or was or has agreed to become a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or is or was

serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator, employee or

agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise against

any expense, liability or loss asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising

out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person

against such expenses, liability or loss under the DGCL.

Section 4. Service for Subsidiaries. Any person serving as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator,

employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other

enterprise, at least fifty percent (50%) of whose equity interests are owned by the Corporation (a “subsidiary” for

purposes of this ARTICLE VII) shall be conclusively presumed to be serving in such capacity at the request of the

Corporation.

Section 5. Reliance. Persons who after the date of the adoption of this provision become or remain directors or

officers of the Corporation or who, while a director or officer of the Corporation, become or remain a director,

officer, employee or agent of a subsidiary, shall be conclusively presumed to have relied on the rights to indemnity,

advance of expenses and other rights contained in this ARTICLE VII in entering into or continuing such service. To

the fullest extent permitted by law, the rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this

ARTICLE VII shall apply to claims made against an indemnitee arising out of acts or omissions which occurred or

occur both prior and subsequent to the adoption hereof. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of this ARTICLE VII

that adversely affects any right of an indemnitee or its successors shall be prospective only and shall not limit,

eliminate, or impair any such right with respect to any proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of

any action or omission to act that took place prior to such amendment or repeal.

Section 6. Non-Exclusivity of Rights; Continuation of Rights of Indemnification. The rights to indemnification and

to the advance of expenses conferred in this ARTICLE VII shall not be exclusive of any other right which any

person may have or hereafter acquire under the Certificate of Incorporation or under any statute, by-law, agreement,

vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. All rights to indemnification under this ARTICLE VII

shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director or officer of the Corporation who serves

or served in such capacity at any time while this ARTICLE VII is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this

ARTICLE VII or repeal or modification of relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws shall not in

any way diminish any rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses of such director or officer or the

obligations of the Corporation arising hereunder with respect to any proceeding arising out of, or relating to, any

actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such repeal or modification.

Section 7. Merger or Consolidation. For purposes of this ARTICLE VII, references to the “Corporation” shall

include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a

constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had

power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a

director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such

constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,

trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this ARTICLE VII with respect to the resulting or

surviving corporation as he or she would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence

had continued.

Section 8. Savings Clause. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if this ARTICLE VII or any portion hereof shall

be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless

indemnify and advance expenses to each person entitled to indemnification under Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII as

to all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, ERISA

excise taxes and penalties and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and

reasonably incurred or suffered by such person and for which indemnification and advancement of expenses is

available to such person pursuant to this ARTICLE VII to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of

this ARTICLE VII that shall not have been invalidated.

ARTICLE VIII

AMENDMENTS

These Bylaws may be amended, altered, changed or repealed or new Bylaws adopted only in accordance with

Section 1 of ARTICLE TEN of the Certificate of Incorporation.
