(d) On July 29, 2014, the Board of Directors
(“Board”) of Barfresh Food Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”) appointed Joe Cugine
to serve as a director, filling a newly created vacancy.
Mr. Cugine is the owner and president of Cugine

a retail and wholesale tea company based in Chicago with 35 stores, as well as president and owner of Restaurant Consulting Group
LLC. Prior to owning and operating his own firms, Mr. Cugine held a series of leadership roles with PepsiCo, lastly as chief customer

total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years.
Item 5.03 Amendment to Bylaws.
Effective July 29, 2014, the Board adopted
the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Barfresh Food Group Inc. dated July 29, 2014 (“Amended Bylaws”). The Amended Bylaws
amend and restate the Corporation’s original bylaws (“Original Bylaws”) in their entirety. As such, the following
summary of changes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety to the text of the Amended Bylaws, attached
hereto as Exhibit 3.1:
| ● | ARTICLE
I. MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS. |
The following provisions were added or changed:
|
● |
Special meetings of the stockholders for any purpose
shall be held only when called by the Chief Executive Officer or a majority of the Board. Pursuant to the Original Bylaws,
Stockholders holding ten percent (10%) of outstanding shares could direct the President to call special meetings of stockholders. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Notice for both annual and special meetings of stockholders
shall be delivered not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date set for the meeting. |
|
|
|
|
● |
A majority of shares entitled to vote, represented
in person or by proxy, constitutes a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to the Original Bylaws, one-third of
the shares was sufficient to constitute a quorum. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Sections 5, 6 and 7 were added detailing exclusive
procedures for nominations of directors and submission of shareholder proposals, including a carve-out for any right of a
stockholder to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |
The following provisions were added:
|
● |
Whenever the authorized number of directors is increased
between annual meetings of the stockholders, a majority of the directors then in office shall have the power to elect such
new directors for the balance of a term and until their successors are elected and qualified. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Any decrease in the authorized number of directors
shall not become effective until the expiration of the term of the directors then in office unless, at the time of such decrease,
there shall be vacancies on the board that are being eliminated by the decrease. |
|
|
|
|
● |
In the event the office of any director becomes
vacant for any reason, a majority of the directors remaining in office, although less than a quorum, may elect a successor
for the unexpired term and until his or her successor is elected and qualified was adopted. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The Board in its discretion may submit any act or
contract for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the stockholders, or at any special meeting of the stockholders
called for the purpose of considering any such act or contract, and any act or contract that shall be approved or be ratified
by the vote of the stockholders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled
to vote and present in person or by proxy at such meeting (provided that a quorum is present), shall be as valid and as binding
upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as if it has been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the Corporation.
In addition, any such act or contract may be approved or ratified by the written consent of stockholders holding a majority
of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote and such consent shall be as valid
and as binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders. |
| ● | ARTICLE
IV INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS |
|
● |
This entire article addressing indemnification by
the Corporation of officers, directors, agents and employees was revised and expanded and a savings clause was included. |

ARTICLE
I. MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS
SECTION
1. ANNUAL MEETING. An annual meeting of the stockholders, for the election of directors to succeed those whose terms expire and
for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting, shall be held at such place, on such date,
and at such time as the Board of Directors shall each year fix, which date shall be within thirteen (13) months of the last annual
meeting of stockholders.
SECTION
2. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the stockholders for any purpose shall be held when called by the Chief Executive Officer
(“CEO”) or a majority of the Board of Directors. The Secretary shall issue the call for the meeting, unless the CEO

that is related to the purposes stated in the notice of the meeting.
SECTION
3. PLACE. Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of Delaware and any stockholder may waive notice thereof
either before or after the meeting.
SECTION
4. NOTICE. A written notice of each meeting of stockholders, stating the place, day, and time of the meeting and, in the case
of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered to each stockholder of record
entitled to vote at the meeting, not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date set for the meeting, either
personally or by mail, by or at the direction of the CEO, the Secretary, or the officer or other persons calling the meeting.
If mailed, the notice is effective when it is deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the stockholder
at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. This notice shall be sufficient for that
meeting and any adjournment of the meeting if the time and place to which the meeting is adjourned are announced at the meeting
at which the adjournment is taken and, if after the adjournment, the Board of Directors does not fix a new record date for the
adjourned meeting. If any stockholder transfers any of such stockholder’s stock after notice is given, it shall not be necessary
to notify the transferee.
Section
5. Nomination of Directors. Only a person who is nominated (a) by
or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (b) by a stockholder in accordance with this Section 5, may be eligible to serve
as a director of the Corporation. This Section 5 shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to nominate director candidates.
(a)
Timing of Notice. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice of director nomination(s) to be made at an annual meeting of stockholders
must be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation,
not less than one hundred twenty (120) days before the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting
of stockholders; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or sixty (60)
days after such anniversary date, such notice will be timely only if so delivered or mailed and received no later than the later
of one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the date of the annual meeting or ten (10) days after the first public announcement
of the date of the annual meeting. In the case of a special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors,
a stockholder’s notice of director nomination(s) to be made at the meeting must be so delivered or mailed and received within
ten (10) days after the first public announcement of such special meeting. Except to the extent otherwise required by law, the
adjournment of a meeting of stockholders shall not commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as
described above.
(b)
Content of Notice. A stockholder’s notice of nominations for a meeting of stockholders shall set forth: (a) as to each person
whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director (1) such person’s name, (2) all information
relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise
required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (3) such person’s
written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected, (4) a completed and
signed 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 in the form used for other directors of the
Corporation and provided by the Secretary upon written request), and (5) a written representation and agreement (in such form
as shall be provided by the Secretary upon written request) that such person (A) is not and will not become a party to (i) any
agreement, arrangement or understanding 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 (ii) 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,
(B) 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 indemnification in connection with service or
action as a director that has not been disclosed therein, and (C) and in such person’s individual capacity and on behalf
of any person or entity on whose behalf the nomination is being made, would be in compliance, if elected as a director of the
Corporation, and will comply with all applicable publicly disclosed corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality
and stock ownership and trading policies and guidelines of the Corporation; and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice (1)
the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of such stockholder and any (A) person controlling, directly
or indirectly, or acting in concert with, such stockholder, (B) beneficial owner of shares of stock of the Corporation owned of
record or beneficially by such stockholder or (C) person controlling, controlled by or under common control with a person or beneficial

shares of stock of the Corporation, held by or to which the stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person is a party, (4) a
description of any material relationships, including financial transactions and compensation, between the stockholder and the
proposed nominee(s), and (5) a representation and other appropriate evidence that the stockholder is a holder of record of shares
of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting, will continue to be a holder of record
of shares of stock entitled to vote for the election of directors through the date of the meeting, and intends to appear in person
or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person(s) specified in the notice.
(c)
Consequences of Failure to Give Proper Notice. No stockholder nominee shall be eligible to serve as a director of the Corporation
unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 5. The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts
warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the
Bylaws, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section
5.
Section
6. Notice of Business to be Brought Before a Meeting. OTHER THAN
DIRECTOR NOMINATIONS. At any meeting of stockholders, the proposal of business (other than nomination and election of directors,
which shall be subject to Article I, Section 5) to be considered by the stockholders may be made (a) pursuant to the Corporation’s
notice of the meeting (or any supplement thereto), (b) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, or (c) by any stockholder
of record of the Corporation entitled to vote on the business at the meeting who complies with the notice procedures set forth
in this Section 6. This Section 6 shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose business to be considered at a meeting
of the Corporation’s stockholders.
(a)
Timing of Notice. For a stockholder to properly propose business to be considered at a stockholder meeting, such stockholder’s
notice of business to be considered at such meeting must be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation, or mailed and received
at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, not less than one hundred twenty (120) days before the first anniversary
of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting
is more than thirty (30) days before or sixty (60) days after such anniversary date, such notice will be timely only if so delivered
or mailed and received no later than the later of one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the date of the meeting or ten (10) days
after the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting. In the case of a special meeting of stockholders, a stockholder’s
notice of business to be considered at the meeting must be so delivered or mailed and received within ten (10) days after the
first public announcement of such special meeting. Except to the extent otherwise required by law, the adjournment of a meeting
of stockholders shall not commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as describe above.
(b)
Content of Notice. A stockholder’s notice of business to be considered shall set forth (a) as to each item of business the
stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting (1) a reasonably brief description of the business desired to be considered,
(2) the reasons for considering such business at the meeting, (3) the text of the business to be considered (including the text
of any resolutions proposed for consideration), and (4) a reasonably detailed description of all agreements, arrangements and
understandings between or among the stockholder and any such beneficial owner in connection with the proposal of such business
by such stockholder; (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice, (1) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s
books, of the stockholder and any Stockholder Associated Person, (2) the class and number of shares of stock of the Corporation
that are held of record or are beneficially owned by such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person, (3) a description
of all other securities or contracts, with a value derived in whole or in part from the value of any shares of stock of the Corporation,
held by or to which the stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person is a party, (4) any material interest of the stockholder
or any such Stockholder Associated Person in the business the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting and (5) a representation
and other appropriate evidence that the stockholder is a holder of record of shares of stock entitled to vote on such business
at the meeting, will continue to be a holder of record of shares of stock entitled to vote on such business through the date of
the meeting, and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose the item of business.
(c)
Consequences of Failure to Give Proper Notice. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no proposal of business
by a stockholder (other than nomination and election of directors, which shall be subject to Article I, Section 5) shall be considered
by the stockholders unless given in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6; provided, however, that a proposal
submitted by a stockholder for inclusion in the Corporation’s proxy statement for an annual meeting that is appropriate
for inclusion therein and otherwise complies with the provisions of Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(including timeliness) shall be deemed to have also been submitted on a timely basis pursuant to this Section 6. The chairman
of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before
the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of the Bylaws, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the meeting
and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Section 6, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 6.
Section
7. Relation to Exchange Act. Nothing in these By-Laws shall be deemed
to affect any right of a stockholder to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to
Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
SECTION
8. WAIVERS OF NOTICE. Whenever any notice is required to be given to any stockholder under these Bylaws, the Corporation’s
Certificate of Incorporation, or the Delaware General Corporation Law, a written waiver of notice signed at any time by the person
entitled to that notice shall be equivalent to giving that notice. Attendance by a stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting,
in person or by proxy, constitutes a waiver of notice of the meeting, except when a stockholder attends a meeting for the purpose,
expressed at the beginning of the meeting, of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully
called or convened.
SECTION
9. CLOSING OF TRANSFER BOOKS OR FIXING OF RECORD DATE. For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to payment of any
dividend or to receive notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment of any meeting or in order to make
a determination of stockholders for any other purpose, the Board of Directors may provide that the stock transfer books shall
be closed for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days. If the stock transfer books are closed for the purpose of determining stockholders
entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders, they shall be closed at least ten (10) days immediately preceding
that meeting. Instead of closing the stock transfer books, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date
for the determination of stockholders but that date shall never be more than sixty (60) days nor, in case of a meeting of stockholders,
less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the action requiring the determination of stockholders is to be taken. If the
stock transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of stockholders, the date on which either
notice of the meeting is mailed or the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring a dividend or authorizing the action that
requires a determination of stockholders is adopted shall be the record date for the determination of stockholders. When a determination
of stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders has been made as provided in this section, the determination shall
apply to any adjournment of the meeting, unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting.
SECTION
10. VOTING RECORD. At least ten (10) days before each meeting of stockholders, the officer or agent having charge of the stock
transfer books for shares of the Corporation shall make a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at that meeting or
at any adjournment of such meeting, stating each stockholder’s address and the number, class, and series of the shares that
he holds. This list shall be kept on file for a period of at least ten (10) days before the meeting at the Corporation’s
registered office or principal place of business or at the office of its transfer agent or registrar, and any stockholder may
inspect the list anytime during usual business hours. The list also shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the
meeting, and any stockholder may inspect it anytime during the meeting. Failure to comply with the requirements of this section
does not affect the validity of .any action taken at the meeting.
SECTION
11. STOCKHOLDER QUORUM AND VOTING. A majority of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, constitutes a
quorum at any meeting of stockholders. When an item of business must be voted on by a class or series of stock, a majority of
the shares of that class or series constitutes a quorum for the transaction of that business by that class or series. If a quorum
is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is
the act of the stockholders unless otherwise provided by law or by the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation; provided
however election of directors shall be by a plurality vote unless otherwise provided by law or by the Corporation’s Certificate
of Incorporation. After a quorum has been established at a stockholders’ meeting, a withdrawal of stockholders that reduces
the number of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting below the number required for a quorum does not affect the validity
of any action taken at the meeting.
SECTION
12. VOTING OF SHARES. Every stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders is entitled, upon each proposal presented
to the meeting, to one vote for each share of voting stock recorded in his/her/its name on the books of the Corporation on the
record date fixed as provided in Article I, Section 9 of these Bylaws. A stockholder may vote either in person or by proxy executed
in writing by the stockholder or his/her/its duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Treasury shares, shares of stock of this Corporation
owned by another corporation the majority of the voting stock of which is owned or controlled by this Corporation, and shares
of stock of this Corporation that it holds in a fiduciary capacity shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting
and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares. The Chairman of the Board, the CEO, any Vice President,
the Secretary and the Treasurer of a corporate stockholder, in that order, are presumed to possess authority to vote shares standing
in the name of the corporate stockholder in the absence of a bylaw or other instrument of the corporate stockholder designating
some other officer, agent, or proxy to vote the shares. Proof of that designation shall be made by presentation of a certified
copy of the Bylaws or other instrument of the corporate stockholder. Shares held by a personal representative, executive, administrator,
guardian, conservator, trustee or other fiduciary may be voted by him/her/it, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer
of those shares into his/her/its name. Shares registered in the name of another corporation, domestic or foreign, may be voted
by such officer, agent or proxy as the bylaw (or comparable instrument) of such corporation may prescribe, or in the absence of
such provision, as the Board of Directors (or comparable body) of such corporation may determine. Shares registered in the name
of a deceased person may be voted by his or her executor or administrator, either in person or by proxy. If he or she is authorized
to do so by an appropriate order of the court by which he was appointed, a receiver may vote shares standing in his or her name
or held by or under his or her control without a transfer of those shares into his or her name. A stockholder whose shares are
pledged may vote those shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter the pledgee
or his/her/its nominee shall be entitled to vote the shares transferred, unless the instrument creating the pledge provides otherwise.
SECTION
13. PROXIES. A stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of the stockholders or to express consent or dissent without a meeting
or a stockholder’s duly authorized attorney-in-fact may authorize one or more persons to act for him/her/it by proxy. To
be effective, a proxy must be signed by the stockholder or his/her/its attorney-in-fact. A proxy granting authority to vote shares
that are registered in the names of multiple owners is effective only if each record owner signs it. A proxy is not valid after
three (3) years from its date unless it provides otherwise. A proxy is revocable at the pleasure of the stockholder executing
it, except as otherwise provided by law. A proxy holder’s authority to act is not revoked by the incompetence or death of
the stockholder who executed the proxy unless, before the authority is exercised, the officer or agent responsible for maintaining
the list of stockholders receives written notice of an adjudication of incompetence or death. If a proxy for the same shares confers
authority on two or more persons and does not otherwise indicate how the shares should be voted, a majority of those proxies who
are present at the meeting (or a single proxy holder if only one is present) may exercise all the powers conferred by the proxy,
but if the proxy holders present at the meeting are equally divided as to the manner of voting in any case, the voting of the
shares subject to the proxy shall be prorated. If a proxy expressly provides, the proxy holder may appoint in writing a substitute
to act in his/her/its place.
SECTION
14. ACTION BY STOCKHOLDERS WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action required by law, these Bylaws or the Certificate of Incorporation of
this Corporation to be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation or any action that may be taken
at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote,
if a written consent, setting forth the action taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum
number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take that action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on
the matter were present and voted. All stockholders need not sign the same document. If any class of shares is entitled to vote
as a class, written consent is required of both (a) the holders of each class of shares entitled to vote as a class, and (b) the
total shares entitled to vote on the matter. In the case of each vote required by paragraphs (a) and (b) of the immediately preceding
sentence, each such vote shall have not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take action
at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on the matter were present and voted. Promptly after the stockholders authorize
an action by written consent, written notice shall be given to the stockholders who did not consent.
SECTION
15. VOTING TRUSTS. Any number of stockholders of this Corporation may create a voting trust in the manner provided by law for
the purpose of conferring upon the trustee or trustees the right to vote or otherwise represent their shares. When the counterpart
of a voting trust agreement and a copy of the record of the holders of voting trust certificates are deposited with the Corporation
as provided by law, those documents shall be subject to the same right of examination by a stockholder of the Corporation, in
person or by agent or attorney, as are the books and records of the Corporation, and the counterpart and the copy of the records
shall be subject to examination by any holder of record of voting trust certificates, either in person or by agent or attorney
at any reasonable time for any proper purpose.
SECTION
16. STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT. Two or more stockholders of this Corporation may enter into an agreement providing for the exercise
of voting rights in the manner provided in the agreement or relating to any phase of the affairs of the Corporation, in the manner
and to the extent provided by law. The agreement shall not impair the right of this Corporation to treat a stockholder of record
as entitled to vote the shares as standing in his/her/its name.
ARTICLE
II. DIRECTORS
SECTION
1. FUNCTION. The business of this Corporation shall be managed and its corporate powers exercised by the Board of Directors.
SECTION
2. NUMBER. The number of members of the Corporation’s Board of Directors shall not be less than three (3) nor more than
nine (9), as fixed from time to time by resolution of the Board of Directors. All the Directors shall be of full age and at least
one shall be a citizen of the United States. Each director shall be elected for a term of one (1) year and until his or her successor
is elected and qualified, except as otherwise provided herein or required by law. The presence of a majority of all Directors
shall be necessary at any meeting to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Meetings of the Directors may be held
within or without the state of Delaware. Whenever the authorized number of directors is increased between annual meetings of the
stockholders, a majority of the directors then in office shall have the power to elect such new directors for the balance of a
term and until their successors are elected and qualified. Any decrease in the authorized number of directors shall not become
effective until the expiration of the term of the directors then in office unless, at the time of such decrease, there shall be
vacancies on the Board of Directors which are being eliminated by the decrease.
SECTION
3. QUALIFICATION. Each Director need not be a resident of Delaware.
SECTION
4. COMPENSATION. The Board of Directors has authority to fix the compensation of the Directors as Directors and as officers.
SECTION
5. DUTIES OF DIRECTORS. A Director shall perform his or her duties as a Director, including his or her duties as a member of any
committee of the Board of Directors upon which he serves, in good faith, in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best
interests of the Corporation, and with such care as an ordinarily prudent person in a similar position would use under similar
circumstances. In performing his or her duties, a Director may rely on information, opinions, reports, or statements, including
financial statements and other financial data, prepared or presented by the following:
(a)
one or more officers or employees of the Corporation whom the Director reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the
matters presented;
(b)
counsel, public accountants, or other persons as to matters that the Director reasonably believes to be within that person’s
professional or expert competence; or
(c)
a committee of the Board of Directors upon which he does not serve and which he reasonably believes to merit confidence, as to
matters within the authority designated to it by the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws. A Director shall not be considered
as acting in good faith if he has knowledge concerning the matter in question that would cause the reliance described above to
be unwarranted. A person who performs his or her duties in compliance with this section shall have no liability because of being
or having been a Director of the Corporation.
SECTION
6. PRESUMPTION OF ASSENT. A Director of the Corporation who is present at a meeting of the Board of Directors at which action
on any corporate matter is taken is presumed to have assented to the action unless he votes against it or expressly abstains from
voting on it. The Secretary of the meeting shall record each abstention or negative vote in the minutes of the meeting.
SECTION
7. NEWLY CREATED DIRECTORSHIPS AND VACANCIES. If the office of any director becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, disqualification,
removal or other cause, a majority of the directors remaining in office, although less than a quorum, may elect a successor for
the unexpired term and until his or her successor is elected and qualified.
SECTION
8. QUORUM AND VOTING. A majority of the full Board of Directors constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business. The act
of the majority of the Directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present is the act of the Board of Directors.
SECTION
9. EXECUTIVE AND OTHER COMMITTEES. The Board of Directors by resolution adopted by a majority of the full Board of Directors,
may designate from among its members an executive committee and one or more other committees each of which, to the extent provided
in the resolution shall have and may exercise all the authority of the Board of Directors, except that no committee shall have
the authority to:
(a)
approve, adopt or recommend to stockholders actions or proposals required by law to be submitted to the stockholders, or
(b)
amend or repeal the Bylaws.
The
Board of Directors, by resolution adopted according to this section, may designate one or more Directors as alternate members
of any committee, who may act in the place of any absent member at any meeting of that committee.
SECTION
10. PLACE OF MEETINGS. Regular and special meetings by the Board of Directors may be held within or outside the State of Delaware.
SECTION
11. REGULAR MEETINGS. A regular meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held without notice other than this Bylaw immediately
after, and at the same place as, the annual meeting of stockholders. The Board of Directors may provide, by resolution, the time
and place for the holding of additional regular meetings without notice other than this Bylaw.
SECTION
12. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by or at the request of the Chief Executive Officer,
Chairman of the Board or any two Directors.
SECTION
13. NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Written notice of the time and place of special meetings of the Board of Directors shall be given to each
Director by first-class United States mail at least two (2) days before the day on which the meeting held or shall be sent to
him or her by facsimile transmission or electronic mail or telephoned or personally delivered to him or her not later than the
day before the day on which the meeting is held. Notice of a meeting of the Board of Directors need not be given to any director
who signs a waiver of notice before, during, or after the meeting. Attendance of a director at a meeting constitutes a waiver
of notice of that meeting and waiver of all objections to the time and place of the meeting, and the manner in which it was called
or convened, except when the director attends the meeting solely to object, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction
of business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose
of, any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of that meeting.
A majority of the directors present, whether or not a quorum exists, may adjourn any meeting of the Board of Directors to another
time and place. Notice of any adjourned meeting shall be given to the directors who were not present at the time of the adjournment
and, unless the time and place of the adjourned meeting are announced at the time of the adjournment, to the other directors.
SECTION
14. METHOD OF MEETING. Members of the Board of Directors may participate in the meeting of the Board of Directors by means of
a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other
at the same time. Participation by such means constitutes presence in person at a meeting.
SECTION
15. ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the directors, or any action that may be taken at
a meeting of the directors or a committee of the directors, may be taken without a meeting if a written consent, setting forth
the action to be taken and signed by all the directors or committee members, is filed in the minutes of the proceedings of the
Board of Directors or the committee. All directors need not sign the same document. A unanimous, written consent has the same
effect as a unanimous vote.
SECTION
16. DIRECTOR CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. No transaction or contract involving a Corporation shall be invalid solely because one or
more of its officers or directors has an interest, directly or indirectly, in the party with whom the Corporation is contracting
or doing business. The presence for quorum purpose of such interested directors, their participation in the consideration of the
matter or even their votes in favor will not render the transaction void or voidable, if at least one of three additional circumstances
is present:
(a)
The facts concerning the interest are known and the transaction is approved by a majority of the disinterested directors, even
though such disinterested directors may be less than a quorum; or
(b)
The facts concerning the interest are known, and the transaction is approved in good faith by the stockholders; or
(c)
The transaction was fair to the Corporation at the time it was made.
SECTION
17. APPROVAL OR RATIFICATION OF ACTS OR CONTRACT BY STOCKHOLDERS. The Board of Directors in its discretion may submit
any act or contract for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the stockholders, or at any special meeting of the stockholders
called for the purpose of considering any such act or contract, and any act or contract that shall be approved or be ratified
by the vote of the stockholders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to
vote and present in person or by proxy at such meeting (provided that a quorum is present), shall be as valid and as binding upon
the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as if it has been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the Corporation.
In addition, any such act or contract may be approved or ratified by the written consent of stockholders holding a majority of
the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote and such consent shall be as valid and
as binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as if it had been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the
Corporation.

IV. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS,
EMPLOYEES
AND AGENTS
SECTION
1. RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is
involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”),
by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was or has agreed to become
a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was serving or has agreed to serve at the request of the Corporation as a director
or officer of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect
to employee benefit plans, 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 or having agreed to serve as a director or officer, shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, 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 said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment) against all expense,
liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and
amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification
shall continue as to a person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially entitled such person to indemnity hereunder
and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that the Corporation shall
indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only
if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. The right to indemnification
conferred in this Article IV shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, if the Delaware General
Corporation Law requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a current, former or proposed director or officer in his or
her capacity as a director or officer or proposed director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is
or has been agreed to be rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee
benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking,
by or on behalf of such indemnified person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such indemnified
person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise.
SECTION
2. INDEMNIFICATION OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS. The Corporation may, by action of its Board of Directors, provide indemnification
to employees and agents of the Corporation, individually or as a group, with the same scope and effect as the indemnification
of directors and officers provided for in this Article.
SECTION
3. NONEXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred
in this Article IV shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common
or statutory), provision of the Certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise.
SECTION
4. INSURANCE. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any person who is or
was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against
any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense,
liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law.
SECTION
5. SAVINGS CLAUSE. If this Article IV or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent
jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each director and officer of the Corporation
as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement with respect
to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative to the full extent permitted by any
applicable portion of this Article IV that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

signature has been placed on the certificate ceases to hold that office, the certificate may be issued and will be as effective
as if that person were an officer at the date of issuance. Every certificate evidencing shares that are restricted as to the sale,
disposition, or other transfer shall (a) bear a legend stating that those shares are restricted as to transfer and (b) the circumstances
under which the shares may be transferred. Every certificate evidencing shares shall state on its face (a) the name of the Corporation,

issued, (d) the number and class of shares, (e) the designation of the series, if any, that the certificate evidences and (f)

for any required statements on certificates, and as may be required by applicable corporate securities laws, which system has
been approved by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Any system so adopted shall not become effective as to
issued and outstanding certificated securities until the certificates therefore have been surrendered to the Corporation.
SECTION
3. LOST, STOLEN, OR DESTROYED CERTIFICATES. The Corporation may issue a new certificate in the place of any certificate previously
issued if the holder of record of the Corporation (a) makes proof in affidavit form that it has been lost, destroyed, or wrongfully
taken, (b) requests the issuance of a new certificate before the Corporation has notice the certificate has been acquired by a
purchaser for value in good faith and without notice of any adverse claim, (c) if requested by the Corporation, gives bond in

these Bylaws, facsimile signatures of any officer or officers of the Corporation may be used whenever and as authorized by the

SECTION
1. By Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is hereby expressly authorized
to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation or adopt new Bylaws, without any action on the part of the stockholders,
by the vote of a majority of the directors; provided, however, this authority conferred upon the Board of Directors shall not
divest the stockholders of the power, nor limit their power to adopt, amend or repeal Bylaws.

2. By Stockholders. These bylaws may be adopted, amended or repealed and new bylaws
may be adopted by the stockholders entitled to vote at the stockholders’ annual meeting without prior notice or at any other
meeting provided the amendment under consideration has been set forth in the notice of meeting, by affirmative vote of not less
than a majority of the shares present or represented at any meeting at which a quorum is in attendance.
SECTION
3. Implied Amendments. Any action taken or authorized by the Board of Directors,
which would be inconsistent with the bylaws then in effect but is taken or authorized by affirmative vote of not less than the
number of directors required to amend the bylaws so that the bylaws would be consistent with such action, shall be given the same
effect as though the bylaws had been temporarily amended or suspended so far, but only so far, as is necessary to permit the specific
action so taken or authorized.
